Forever Loved: Broken Family

Chapter Four

A woman answered the door, she had dark curls that went a couple inches past her shoulders. She was wearing a nice dress and she was barefoot. The woman smiled at her, "Ah! la ropa! Ellos están aquí mucho más rápido de lo que pensaba. Muchas gracias mi querida!"

Kagome looked at the woman blankly before she uttered, "er...no espanolas..."

The woman paused before she laughed lightly, " I said, ah, the clothes! They are here much faster than I thought. Thank you very much, my dear...I didn't think I would run into a non-Spanish speaker this far in Spain..."

Kagome blushed slightly as she handed the bag of clothes over, "I got the smart idea to travel and not learn the language before coming here..."

The woman chuckled as Kagome continued to speak, " I am learning the language slowly, though..."

"That is good...being able to speak the native language of the place you are staying in is always a good thing to know" She looked Kagome over as if trying to figure something out. Kagome could see questions in the woman's eyes.

Kagome nodded, "I will leave you to your purchases, it was nice meeting you..."

The woman nodded, "Carmen Denali...may I have your name too.." She paused seeing the questionable look on the young girl's face, "so I can give a good review to your employer..."

"It's Kagome Higurashi.." She gave the woman a small bow, "I shall be going. As I said before, It was nice meeting you."

"As it was you.."

Kagome then left, she didn't want to ask the woman what she was...but it didn't make Kagome less curious. She also had a feeling the woman was the same way.

Carmen shut the door, a small frown on her lips. The girl was different, there was something about her she couldn't quite put her fingers on.

"Carman?" The voice of her mate shook her out of her thoughts, "Is there something wrong?" Her mate looked at her with cautious eyes as he looked her over as if looking to see if anything physically was wrong with her.

Carman smiled, as she sat the clothes on the table close by the door and moved closer to her mate. She put her hand on his cheek, "Everything is fine..." She glanced back at the door as her mate took her hand in his and gave it a kiss.

"There is more going on in your brain, will you share it with me." His gold eyes looked into her own making a fond smile come to her lips.

"Eleazar, is it normal for a human to smell not like food? But smells like spices and spring?" Carman asked her mate.

Eleazar paused, a frown on his face, "Yes..it is very rare cases that it happens..." He looked at his mate, "Why do you ask?"

She sighed, "The girl who was just here...that is what she smelled like...that and she felt different somehow."

Eleazar hummed, a thoughtful look on his face, "The only reason she would have the smell was because of what she is..." He paused when Carman looked at him, "...a vampire chosen...one who is destined to have this life..."

"There is such a thing..." She muttered, looking back at the door a frown on her face. She didn't know this.

"Yes...though it is very rare for this to happen...Aro usually finds them and has them sent to their respected mates. Marcus helps with that."

Carman nodded, it didn't seem right, but who was she to judge such a thing. She was happy she had been able to find her mate, and wouldn't want to wish a mateless life on anyone.

It was a lonely existence.

She hoped the girl the best of luck in her future, but Carman also had a feeling she would be seeing the girl much sooner than either of them, though.
