Max's POV

I woke up sweating hard.

Sweat trickled down my face as I threw my blanket off of me. Another bad dream. My heart raced as I put my head in my hands as I tried to calm  my racing heart.
This time it was so real. I could see my fathers face so clearly.

I clenched my fists.

The demons of my past were trying to catch up to me.

I wouldn't let them.

They were going to bring me down.

I couldn't let them.

They were going to harm me and my family.

I had to save them.

They were going to hurt the people I love.

Isabella and her sister would be able to defend themselves.

But Bee, she couldn't.

She wasn't strong enough.

I had to stay away from her.

I thought about what happened today. I had never felt a stronger connection to anyone.

It was electric. It was frightening.

I had to stay away.

I had to stay away.

It wasn't an choice anymore.

If I didn't, they would kill her.

And if they did that. I wouldn't be able live with my self.

Better safe, than sorry.

I would start tomorrow. But right now I needed comfort.

I grabbed my cell phone and called Isabella.

"Hello?" came her sweet voice from the other side.

It wasn't as sweet as Bee's though.

I shook that thought from my head.

I had to keep Bee at a distance. Not for my sake, but hers.

Enjoy my lovelies!!
