Love Bites™ (Harry Styles)

Chapter Eighteen

A/N: If anyone was wondering what Callie looks like, she's on the side. :) -Jenna xo

"Are you going on a suicide mission!?" Harry asked/yelled.

"No..."

"He wants you dead, Callie!"

"Correction, he wants vengeance. I already have it planned out in my head, Harry. Don't worry about it."

"I'm not worried about it, I'm worried about you."

"Then maybe we should pick up where we left off, that way I don't miss out," I winked at him.

"It's not funny."

"I know it isn't! He was going to kill you!"

Tears built up in my eyes again. I swear, I've cried more in this house than I have in my entire life. Harry just sat their with shock and fear written all over his face. I knew he wasn't going to take it well which is why I didn't want to tell him in the first place. I held back my tears, not wanting to cry anymore over these evil people. Well, evil vampires.

"Harry, are you okay?"

"You're not doing this."

"I have to."

"No. I'm not letting you out of my sight."

"But-"

"No. I promised to keep you safe, therefore you're not going to seek out Eliodoro. If he takes my life, so be it."

"Harry, you're not serious. You can't be."

"Callie, it's me he wants, not you."

"No, no, no. He wants Eli. I have to get him there; he'll just stake you on the spot."

"And what makes you think he won't do the same to you?"

"Because I know what he wants. If he really wants it, he won't kill me."

"What is it?"

"It's better the less that you know. All I need from you is for you to stay here and be safe... Oh, and Tatia's number."

"You're involving a witch? Callie, they're dangerous and they always want something in return."

"Then I'll give her whatever she wants. You just have to let me handle this. I'm a big girl, Harry; I can fend for myself."

Harry sighed, "Fine. But if anything goes wrong-"

"I'll tell you," I said finishing his sentence. "Now I'm tired, I'm gonna go to-"

"Stay with me... Please."

I smiled and laid down next to him. He pulled me closer and I rested my head on his chest. The sound of his heart beat was all I could hear as I drifted off to sleep.

My eyes slowly fluttered open as I awoke from my serene sleep. When I looked up, Harry was still sleeping. I lightly kissed the corner of his mouth before quietly crawling out of the bed. Luckily, I knew where the spots were that the floor creaked. Silently hopping over them, I made my way out if the room and shut the door as quietly as I could.

Once I got to the kitchen, my heart stopped momentarily. Dacey was sitting at the table. She smiled at me as I walked in and patted the spot next to her. Hesitantly, I went slowly over to the place she'd offered and sat down.

"Don't worry, I'm all better now. I just wanted to apologise. Eli got in my head and I couldn't control it. I'm...sorry..." the last word was more like a whisper.

A smile spread on my lips. "I take it you don't apologise very often, but it's okay. He got into my head once and I almost killed myself... So, I know how it feels."

Dacey smiled and stuck her hand out, "Friends?"

I shook her hand, "Friends."

We both smiled and then I remembered what I'd told Harry the night before.

"Do you happen to know where he might be?"

"Who, Eli?"

I nodded.

"Nope."

"Okay... What about Tatia? Or do you at least have her number?"

"That, I can help you with."

"Great!"

I pulled my phone out and handed it to Dacey. She typed in a number super fast. Guess she's got Tatia's number engraved in her brain. After she handed the phone back to me I thanked her and then excused myself. I went outside and closed the front door behind me. Now was my chance to call without anyone hovering over my shoulder. CoughCoughHarryCoughCough.

The line rang a few times before anyone answered.

"Hello?"

"Tatia?"

"This is she. May I ask who's calling?"

"Oh, sorry. It's Callie."

"Oh! Callidora, how are you?"

"I'm okay... I've actually got a favour to ask of you if you're okay with that."

"Course! Ask me anything and I'll see what I can do."

"It's about Eliodoro. Apollo wants him back and if I don't return him by the next full moon he's going to kill Harry."

"You must want me to see if I can contact Iata."

"Yeah..."

"I'll see what I can do. She's a very hard witch to get a hold of, but I can try, princess."

"Thank you."

"My pleasure."

With that, we hung up. The next full moon... That's exactly two weeks from today. I hope Tatia's successful with contacting her. Otherwise I'm going to lose Harry. There's just no other way I can think of to lure Eli back to his father other than his forbidden love. Now I just hope to God that it works.

A/N: This is kind of a filler chapter. Anyway, I want to have a little contest. Whoever has the best comment (in my opinion) gets a dedication. Good luck! :) -Jenna xo
