"What is a mate?" I asked after several minutes of silence. "Someone your supposed to spend the rest of your life with. Even in death you shall be united." Chloe said.

"I have until next month I have to find him?" I asked.

"You may have already found him." Chloe said. "Really." Robbie said.

"Is their anyone that you trust with your life?" Chloe asked.

"A number of people." I said.

"Someone that you trust completely." She said. "Robbie." I said.

"Someone new to your life. That you feel comfortable with even though you just met." She said. Tristan was someone I just met and felt really comfortable talking to. I told him all about my family issues and he never once judged me or made me feel like a freak. "There's this one guy." I said.

"Good. What's his name?" Chloe asked.

"You met a guy." Harold said.

"You didn't tell us." Charmaine said.

"Can the girl speak." Robbie said.

"His name is Tristan. He's new at the school with a sister named Sofie." I said. "Absolutely not." Chloe said outraged. I was a bit outraged myself. What was so wrong with Tristan. He was cute, smart, funny, and I trusted him. She was the one who asked. I didn't sign up for this mate thing so how dare she be outraged. "What's wrong with Tristan?" I asked.

"You wouldn't understand." She said.

"You just told me I'm a half-blood vampire, I might die on my 18th birthday, and I have a mate out their somewhere and you think I can't handle some minor detail about a guy that could be my mate." I said.

"Don't say that." Chloe said.

"Don't scare her before I meet her." A man with a British accent said. He had what looked like jet black hair. How could they be my parents when I had red hair. "How come I have red hair?" I blurted out. "My hair is red it fades as I die." Chloe said.

"What do you mean die." I said.

"Until you find your mate we die slowly." Chloe said.

"So your lives are in my hands." I said.

"Don't worry darling. Everything will be fine. Promise." The man said. I didn't know his name, but I knew I could trust him. "Who are you?" I asked. "I'm Eddy or dad whatever works for you." He said.

"So your my biological dad." I said.

"That name works too." He said.

"Tristan Bennell may be her mate." Chloe said. "That's what got you all pumped up for." Eddy said.

"Do you remember what he is." Chloe said. "I remember clearly. He and his sister wear the mark." Eddy said.

"I don't know he seems like a good kid." Robbie said.

"I refuse to let my daughter be with that." Chloe said.

"She may die without him." Eddy said.

"He's an evil black angel." Chloe said.

"He's a what." I said.

"Forget I said anything." Chloe said.

"What's an evil black angel." I said.

"We shouldn't talk about them." Chloe said. "Not here at least. Visit our home and we can talk there. It'll be safer." Eddy said. "Okay." I said. This was certainly an interesting get together.
