The natural enemy in his consciousness disappeared again, and Zack stared at Benjamin with his eyes wide open.
Although it should have been a dangerous situation, it became extremely safe because of this strange phenomenon. But this is really not a good thing. This complete mismatch between facts and feelings is fatal to vampires.
Zach only has one body. Should the actions of this body follow the instinct of his own feelings, or should he follow the reality he sees
"What's going on?" Zach stared at Benjamin. At this time, Benjamin was not a threat to the vampire. On the contrary, the strong vitality brought by his strong body made the vampire feel that Benjamin was delicious!
Benjamin took out the blank videotape and shook his head, "Matthew feels the same as you. This situation alternates repeatedly."
Zach hesitated for a moment, and finally stepped off the ledge, but still kept a distance from Benjamin, "How did it start? Is there a pattern?"
"Suddenly." Benjamin thought for a moment and shook his head. It seemed that he was not very sure. "No pattern was found. The duration was short and the intervals were irregular." Benjamin shook his head again and added as if he remembered something, "This Just one of the side effects of stopping using spices.”
Zach frowned, "What else?"
"I can't use Alpha's skin anymore, I feel like a human." Benjamin said this as his cheeks twitched slightly while chewing food.
Zach was stunned, and Benjamin put down the dinner plate in his hand, picked up the short sleeves, and there was, uh, a piece of cloth torn from something unknown on his shoulder. Pulling the cloth open, there was nothing on the clean skin. Benjamin searched in the room, took a knife, and glanced at Zach, as if to warn the vampire not to think of anything bad.
Then Benjamin. He took the knife and poked the bulging muscles.
There is a delusion that every vampire has, which is to suck werewolves dry. But this idea can only be a delusion, because the werewolf's blood is the blood of the dead created by Papa Midnight and can move freely, and it is the poison of vampires.
But this moment. Zach looked at Benjamin's shoulder where bright red liquid oozed, and this delusion seemed to come true. Seems delicious.
But immediately, Zach put aside this evil delusion, because Benjamin's wound did not heal on its own.
Benjamin showed the third side effect, tugged the corner of his mouth, pressed the cloth back, put down his sleeves and said calmly, "When it comes out again, it will heal itself. I am Alpha again." He glanced at Zach. , “You can fully feel it.”
Zach frowned and shook his head, and Benjamin continued, "But every time it comes out, I feel very tired and hungry." He picked up the dinner plate again, raised it towards Zach, and continued eating.
Benjamin seemed calm. But Zach couldn't calm down. He didn't understand what Benjamin's situation was now.
As I said before, this is really not a good thing. If what Benjamin is showing now is actually telling vampires that Alphas and vampires can coexist safely during the full moon cycle, Zach would rather not have this weird sense of security.
"What would happen if," Zach frowned, "you let it out completely?"
Benjamin glanced at Zach, "I don't think I can come back."
see it? This is the most fundamental problem!
Whether it's footage captured by a camera. It was still the aura that Zach felt, and Alpha's wolf body was completely restrained by Benjamin's current body! Wrong, this statement is not accurate at all. Zach can confirm that when Benjamin transformed into a wolf in the video, Benjamin was a wolf in human form!
The feeling is unmistakable. Vampires who are sensitive to blood can clearly feel that at that moment, under Benjamin's human skin and in his thick chest, the roaring heart is pushing the vampire's poison and the blood of the dead throughout his body!
This is the sense that vampires rely on to survive, and it’s absolutely unmistakable!
What the current situation shows is not as simple as the bound Alpha wolf body, but that the Alpha human and wolf are separated!
At this time, Benjamin, who seemed to be just a hungry human, had no trace of a werewolf, and he had lost all abilities as an Alpha. But at any time, the aura of true Alpha will fill Benjamin's body for no reason.
The appearance of the wolf body, the consciousness of the wolf body, and the ability of the wolf reappeared in Benjamin in some strange way, but they were firmly fixed by Benjamin's human body and could not be displayed in a true posture. in the real world.
Let's turn this situation upside down.
Benjamin's human form, Benjamin's consciousness, is firmly fixed by a black-brown wolf-shaped body...
Give it a try and verify it? Do not make jokes.
Zach said with a sullen face, "I'm going to find Walter." He walked past Benjamin and walked out of the room.
"I've already asked." Benjamin waved his hand, "He said there has been some progress and there should be results before the full moon."
"No." Zach was already standing in the corridor with a gloomy face, "We can't wait until the moon is full. You are very unsafe now."
During this period when Alpha's abilities disappear and reappear with no pattern, Benjamin is indeed extremely vulnerable.
Zach's eyes fell on Benjamin's slightly bulging shoulders. Even the most basic self-healing ability had disappeared. Alpha, who was supposed to be the most powerful during the full moon cycle, was now as powerless as a human. What the hell is this? Son!
"Who would hurt me?" Benjamin glanced at Zach and deliberately shrugged his injured shoulder toward Zach, "You."
Zach twitched the corner of his mouth, and a certain delusion resurfaced. Just like a student's work criticized by Morris, if a guy who is allergic to peanuts is placed in front of a peanut with the word "definitely not allergic" on it, will he take a bite...
"Benjamin, I'm not in the mood to joke right now." Zach shook his head, getting rid of the ridiculous thoughts, and stared at Benjamin, "There are still Gangeros out there who don't know what to think about."
"So what." Benjamin stopped joking and said calmly, "Even if Walter gets the result, how are you going to fix my current situation."
Zach opened his mouth and was speechless for a moment. Then the vampire reacted and looked at Benjamin helplessly. "You've decided to use spice again."
"Yeah." Benjamin raised his chin, "I just want you to experience my current situation for yourself." A piece of meat on the fork was stuffed into his mouth, and Benjamin also walked out of the room, saying vaguely, "Now, Do you have any other opinions?"
Zach crossed his arms. Pouting his lips, the process of persuading Benjamin to stop using spices had been extremely bumpy from the beginning. He finally managed to convince him, but now this weird side effect made his efforts in vain!
But now it is quite certain that the spice given by Si Bella is not a good thing! Zach decided to make a last-ditch effort, "No, not yet. I'll stay in Grande these days. I can protect you."
Benjamin's broad shoulders directly pushed against the vampire in the way, "Then what? What if I don't come back after the forced transformation? Bring a wolf back to Grande?"
This is a serious problem. Benjamin is still human now. Alpha still has enough self-control to limit the transformation and maintain Benjamin's body and consciousness. Zach can also temporarily suppress his instinct and stay by Benjamin's side.
But the transformation on the night of the full moon is mandatory, and Alpha cannot resist. God knows if the transformed Alpha can return to Benjamin under the current situation.
"There are no guarantees..." Zach shouted to Benjamin's body, which had already started to go downstairs, "You use it. The side effects will disappear!"
"At least I dare to try this." Benjamin's body moved up and down the stairs. He stretched out an arm to wave at the vampire, and finally completely disappeared behind the cover of the stairs.
Zach stood there, frowning as he thought about the side effects of Sibella's spices on Benjamin, and related them to the history of werewolves, Papa Midnight, witchcraft, vampires, Gangaro... In the end, he shook his head without a clue. Walk towards the stairs.
Zach suddenly seemed to remember something again. I went back to the room, took Benjamin's videotape, squinted my eyes, and was thinking about something strange in my mind. The vampire decided to keep this video tape for good reason. As I said before, it is simply impossible for a vampire to watch the transformation process of an Alpha calmly.
In order to let Zach truly feel the current situation with all his heart, Benjamin arranged the camera, which was inexplicably satisfying to some kind of vampire's bad taste...
After solemnly putting the videotape into Grande's safe, Zach raised his eyebrows, sorted out his mood, and began to carry out the real purpose of coming back - to prepare for Mrs. Quinn's dinner that evening.
Alice in the kitchen hesitated for a moment when she heard about the dinner, but she could understand why Zach wanted to take her with him. Seth's accident seemed to make everyone in Grande a little paranoid. Even Fitz was able to enjoy the 'care' that he would never understand. As soon as Zach mentioned that 'Lola will be there too', Alice lost it. After hesitating, he nodded.
There is a fact that the Grand House has Alice's permanent presence and the magical ability to see death, making this complicated family extremely safe. Unless Crowley is crazy and wants to be surrounded by angry vampires and alphas, and sends Cerberus to attack again and drag Grande's family into hell.
One thing must be made clear here, being dragged into hell does not mean death. Look at Neil and Daphne, these two guys are alive and well.
We can define the Banshee's ability as seeing the transformation of life forms. For example, living humans 'die' and become corpses and earthbound spirits. For example, the earthbound spirit 'dies' and becomes an undead spirit belonging to hell. These are the things that the banshee 'sees'.
Of course, there was Louise. For formal occasions, even if Zach was just Blake's 'nanny', a formal female companion was still needed.
Zach looked at Benjamin, who stretched his arms covered with brown down, "Do you want to go?"
After using the spice again, he miraculously returned to normal Alpha immediately. He shed his Alpha skin and shook his head, "A retired veteran is not suitable for such an occasion."
Zack thought about it, and in such a situation, there was really no place where Benjamin could make use of his human role. (..)
