She laughed nervously.

Amelia: "Prove it."

Xander: "Are you sure?"

Amelia: "I need to see something real."

He stood up, his gaze steady.

Xander: "Very well."

He stepped back, and before her eyes, his features began to change subtly—eyes glowing, canines elongating slightly.

She gasped, stumbling back.

Amelia: "Oh my god..."

He returned to his normal appearance.

Xander: "I would never hurt you."

She sank into a chair, her mind reeling.

Amelia: "This can't be real."

Xander: "I wanted to tell you sooner, but I was afraid."

Amelia: "Afraid of what?"

Xander: "That you'd look at me the way you are now."

She met his eyes, a mix of fear and curiosity.

Amelia: "Why tell me now?"

Xander: "Because keeping it from you is putting you in danger. The messages you've been receiving are from those who wish to expose us."

Amelia: "Us?"

Xander: "My kind. If our existence becomes public, it could lead to chaos."

She took a deep breath.

Amelia: "This is a lot to take in."

Xander: "I know. If you want to leave, I won't stop you."

She considered her options.

Amelia: "I don't know what to think."

Xander: "All I ask is that you keep this between us."

She nodded slowly.

Amelia: "I won't tell anyone."

He looked relieved.
