“My dear child. I am an Implanter where as other vampires like the one we just witnessed are thought persuaders. Essentially our powers are the same. I am just much, much more powerful.”

Jonathon started to interrupt but Gabriel held up his hand to stop him.

“You want to know what makes me more powerful? I can make you do anything I want you to do. Whereas what a thought persuader, like the vampire we just met, can only influence or persuade thoughts in your head that already exist. They are very dangerous but not as dangerous as me. But as far as I know there is no other vampire with my power.”

Jonathon’s eyes darkened. I knew what he was thinking because it was the same thing that I was thinking.

That meant that my feelings for Isaac already existed. True, they had been intensified and influenced but they had been there.

Gabriel understood the look and repeated what I had already concluded.

“Yes,” said Gabriel, “That means she does have feelings for the boy. A thought persuader cannot create feelings or desires unless there is already some kind of connection. But you must understand that once a thought persuader, or an Implanter, gets into your mind they are nearly impossible to resist. You don’t know that they’re in your mind and you can’t help but listen to the whispers.”

Jonathon took a deep breath.

“Thank you Gabriel,” he sighed as if defeated.

Jonathon turned to go but turned back towards Gabriel.

“Gabriel when were you created?”

Gabriel looked thoughtful.

“I’m not sure exactly but somewhere around two-thousand years ago,” said Gabriel.

“Do you know who created you?”

“Yes. His name is Isaiah.”

“Isaiah? As in Isaiah of the Originals?”

“Yes, that Isaiah. I am the first vampire created outside of the Originals. They assume that is why I am so powerful,” Gabriel sighed. “Don’t you already know this? I thought it was common knowledge,” said Gabriel.

Jonathon chuckled. “I did, I just wanted to hear it from the horse’s mouth. You’re an interesting guy Gabriel.”

Gabriel laughed, “I’d say the same for you but your girl is actually a lot more interesting.”

Jonathon eyes darkened and he stepped in front of me.

Gabriel held his hands up in surrender.

“Surely you’ve noticed?”

“Noticed what?”

“She may be human still but her powers are already forming. Can’t you feel them pulsing?” Gabriel asked.

“No,” said Jonathon like someone who doesn’t want to acknowledge the truth.

“I can’t tell you what her power is going to be but whatever it is she’s powerful,” said Gabriel.

Jonathon looked at me and I looked at him. Excitement sparkled in my eyes. Maybe I wasn’t a defenseless human after all. But Jonathon’s eyes did not portray excitement at the thought of my powers. Instead panic glared at me out of his eyes.

“This can’t be happening,” he whispered.

“What?” Gabriel and I asked simultaneously.

“No-nothing,” said Jonathon shaking his head.
