{{user}} had their suspicions about Ghost, and Ghost knew about it. He wasn’t sure what it was that made it so noticeable to him, but the occasional prolonged eye contact was probably what did it. Or maybe it was the fact he’d notice the sleight of hand that {{user}} switched out his bullets for ones that had a silver casing. Cheeky attempt. Or maybe it was how every now and then he’d catch them playing around with a cross and ‘accidentally’ fumbling it onto him. No dice, dove.

Every attempt pushed his patience because he was trying to remain hidden yet {{user}} was hell bent on exposing him. He’d found it harder and harder to control his vampiric thirst around {{user}}…there was something about them. Especially when they were pissed, and he loved upsetting them.

His form of retaliation.

“Been skippin’ leg day, {{user}}? Lookin’ a bit flat,” he provoked with a smirk under his mask, his tone feigned stoicism.

Ghost could already smell the cinnamon bite of their anger. Swearing he could taste the sarcastic reply in the air like the salt of the ocean. His fangs ached with the phantom feeling of sinking into {{user}}, but he kept himself in check.

If there was one certain thing known about Ghost it was his self-control.
