As if taking inspiration from Simon, Conner decided the same and said, "Same here, Mel."

Melanie shook her head, "I do not like Simon that way. He just enjoys annoying me. I do not like anyone right now, and I am more than happy being alone, than loving a boy." Both of them were giving her a headache, and she needed some time alone.

The crooked smile on Simon's lips faltered, and he replied, "I wasn't speaking about things in general about her. Melanie is like a little firecracker outside, and though she tries to be strong, not wanting to hurt anyone, she has a heart of a cotton. She smiles on rare occasions while trying to behave like a mother and trying to be there for the people whom she cares about. So yes… I like her very much and would like to ask her out on a date. What do you say, darling?" He directed the question to Melanie in front of Conner. "I will make sure you don't regret a thing."

"I do. Who wouldn't have feelings for her?" a crooked smile appeared on the vampire's lips.

Melanie glared at Simon, noticing how green his eyes were but not understanding the look his eyes held. All she wanted to do right now was focus on your studies and make sure nothing happened while she was here in Veteris.

"Brutals," remarked the red-headed vampire, and Melanie gritted her teeth.

As if not ready to give up, Conner said, "What if I decide to pursue you and try to change your mind back to the way it was before Reese came into the picture?"

The reason why she hadn't been able to give an answer right away to Conner earlier was because she was still processing how she felt. Gathering her feelings of past and present had torn her.

Before Conner could repeat the same words in front of Simon, Melanie said to Conner, "I am sorry, Conner, but I don't think I can." When she saw her friend part his lips to speak, she continued, "It is true that in the past I used to have romantic feelings towards you, but somewhere in between then and now, I decided to move on, and I don't feel the same way I used to feel for you. You are still my friend, and I love you so. Just not romantically anymore," she repeated the words while making sure she put her point across both the boys.

A better place to be in

It was because even though Victoria had always looked up to Roman, there was also a human whom she had befriended in their first year. It just so happened that the boy was from a hunter's family. When the boy found out the truth, there was nothing but hate he had for Victoria, and in the end, they had to erase every single memory of hers in his mind by compelling the boy before he was sent to another university.

"Looks like you are still in pain. Not every person shares the same fate," pointed Simon.

Victoria clicked her tongue, "You think she will accept you?"

"The question isn't about if Conner sees her as a potential partner in the romance department. But what one needs to ponder is that if Melanie still feels the same way for him," though he wasn't smiling outwardly, his expression was calm, and the trait of cunningness showed up in his green eyes.

Conner then asked Melanie, "Will you be my girl friend, Mel?"

As if the timing couldn't be anymore perfect, Simon, who had been bored in the library within a minute, caught sight of the two humans, standing at the side and talking. His eyes fell on Conner, who held Melanie's hand in his, and they stood too close.

"All I am asking is for us to take a chance, so that we don't look back in the future and feel regret," Conner took a step forward, coming to stand close to Melanie. Melanie froze a little as they were not too far from the library, and this was an open space. He then raised his other hand, bringing it near to her face; he pushed a piece of her hair behind her ear.

Conner squeezed her hand, and maybe if it was in the past, she would have felt her heart jolt, but she didn't. Instead, she had felt the jolt of electricity from someone else.
