"I should first sleep now. Ugh, Lyra's issues can wait for now. Devi must have handled it carefully without leaving any proof behind. Hah, afterall I am her vessel, she would not put my life at risk."
Zoravec snickered at the thought while lying over his bed as he thought about everything. He was sure that Devi would not put him under risk acknowledging that he was her last option.
Or probably he was not? Well, who knows.
He closed his eyes with a heavy reeling and irregular breathing but he knew that he had to keep himself calm if he wished to function properly tomorrow morning. Zoravec assumed that his fluctuating emotions were a trigger for his powers, the conclusion was derived from all those times when he felt that his rage was one of the biggest elements.
Back there while dealing with Hecate and Devi his blood spell was triggered when he grew angry. He had no clue how to access his powers yet since Zoravec was completely unaware of how his powers worked. Or even what they exactly were. Nonetheless he had to be sure about it and to find a proper way to make them work.
Zoravec soon fell asleep while thinking about so many things which bombarded his mind. Whereas Hecate and Devi were still in the lounge while pondering over their situation, none of them must have ever thought about having to throw any of it. But since they were put into a new scene and a situation it was impossible for them to conclude something that fast.
Both were terrified of losing him and wished to make it up to him. But they had to work harder to win him once again. And for that both of the ladies were willing to do anything which could possibly help them in making Zoravec talk. Since he had already told them about ignoring them, it forced the ladies to resort to everything they could do in order to make him interact.

The very next day he woke up with a strange feeling deep down in his chest. Zoravec sat on the bed while rubbing his eyes as he looked around with a sigh. Soon a disappointed and a sad expression clouded his face as he recalled that Hecate was not going to greet him mornings as usual anymore.
Everything played in his mind once again like a film and left him speechless. It was the first time Zoravec had to be without his mother. Hecate had always been by his side ever since, but now that the woman's situation had changed Zoravec had no idea how to deal with it.
"I have to adapt to this new situation, I have to live without her now."
Zoravec raked through his hair while sighing, he had no idea when he could finally get used to that life now. It had been just one day yet and he was feeling worse, terrified and helpless. Most of all Zoravec was blank regarding his upcoming life.
For now he just knew that visiting the school was the first and dire task, he had to make sure that if the cops were investigating things he was not the culprit. He looked around and the only companion in the room was silence. There was no one in the room, it appeared the demoness had paid heed to yesterday's scolding.
"Argh, it seems I have to train myself to live alone and on my own now."
He crept at the edge of the bed and dangled his legs while trying to comprehend about breakfast. Of course, if none of the women were going to tend him then Zoravec had to do his tasks on his own.
He massaged his temples and stood up from the bed, which was in between the room while having the door in front of it. Zoravec had kept his room neat and kempt, his whole life previously was organised in various aspects. He was brought up like that and did not intend to change himself, but the inevitable one was right in front of him now.

"I wonder if I can eat like humans now or do I have to feed on someone's blood again."
Zoravec wondered while recalling the time he was unable to refrain himself from sucking on Devi' blood. He did not know if he was able to blend in with others like before or not. Since his skin had already turned pale now like vampires and lips were blood red.
The changes occurring in his body were so visible that it was hard not to mistake him for a vampire. Zoravec headed towards the bathroom but something else caught his attention in between. The mirror which was in the way garnered his whole focus, Zoravec had no idea what to conclude from the sight.
"What the fuck is this?"
He touched his face and the fresh blood stained his fingers. Zoravec reflexively looked in the mirror as his footsteps staggered and he fell back over his butt. The flashback of yesterday when he killed Lyra played in his mind and it paralyzed Zoravec for a while.
"What…how can it even happen? I did not even go out."
Zoravec was dumbfounded upon seeing the blood over his lips. He knew what it meant but had no clue how it happened. The blood was still in liquid form and hadn't dried up yet, it indicated that Zoravec had drunk someone's blood recently.
Everything hinted towards just one thing. Sleepwalking! But how was it even possible?
But if he actually started sleepwalking then how come Hecate and Devi did not see him going out? They both were awake the whole night since he could hear their whispers and the cackling sound of cutler. All thanks to his exceptional hearing which worked at that time because he was extremely focused on it. Zoravec kept on sitting there while trying to comprehend the possibility that he might have actually killed someone.
