Poison

Julie watched Donovan leave the front side of the dorm with a pleasing look on his face. Her eyes then shifted to look at Roman, who turned back to pick up a fresh T-shirt from the cupboard. Once he was done wearing it, he picked up his jacket. 

"Sleep here tonight," said Roman to her, and Julie furrowed her brows. 

"You're going?" she asked in worry. 

Roman stared at Julie. Seeing her turn anxious, he said, "Maybe the Corvin is right. It would be better if I quench my thirst before having you around me. This dorm is the safest place for you to stay and no one will come in or try to disturb you. Sleep in peace and keep that useless bird nearby."

Julie's hands clenched, and she said, "I am coming with you."

She didn't trust Donovan even for a fleeting second, and it was obvious that the Elder vampire was scheming something by making use of Roman.
