Elena's eyes went a little wide as she realized what was happening. How was it that she'd been attracted to the supernatural here, of all places? She'd meant to put it all behind her, and here he was.
She reached a slightly shaking hand forward and picked up her wine glass.
"How long will one bear last?" She asked, trying to focus on what he'd been saying instead of what was in her wine glass. She was almost afraid to sip, yet she couldn't help it. She raised it to her lips and drank.
