Dusk, that's how long it took to get there. To get to where my mate was currently at. I stood in front of the one story high home. With vines reaching to the top of the home and the cobblestones were crook.
I turn back into my normal form, feeling quite embarrassed since I am naked.

"Stay here" I whisper to Callicus, wishing for him to not look at my body.
"And do not look at my body" I quickly add on. I got off the ground, walking to the cottage home and knocking on the door. I waited patiently for it to unlock, the excitement I withheld was extreme.

Although I know I am not safe, since I have bruised one of the men, and escaped again on my own, once sir Mochief sees me, I am a done deal.

No answer, I knock once again, my excitement still grand. But once again there was no answer. I began to worry as I knock once more. When I got no answer, I fiddle with the door handle, to my surprise it was unlock the whole entire time. I open the door of the home. A twin bed laid upon the left side of the home, a small kitchen on the either side of the home. In the middle was a dark brown wooden table with a pitcher and a clear cup. A pile of ripped clothing laid under the table. I turn to the bed to see a white piece of paper upon the bed.
I walk to the piece of paper, slowly opening it to reveal words and many stains that consist of tears and blood. And it read

My dearest Isabella,
If you are reading this, I want you to know how much I love you, the love I have for you is beyond breakable. I love everything about you and although we have yet to spend quality time with one another, just know that one day we will soon be able to be with one another.
When they took you, they hit me as well, twice in my side and it damaged me pretty badly, so I am heading somewhere to get well, once I am well, I will find you again my love. I love you dearly and I hope to see you again soon
Love,
Prince

Farrah whimpered as I fold the paper back up, placing it upon my chest and allow tears to trickle down my face, for he hasn't gave me no clue to his whereabouts, making it almost impossible for me to know where he is.

"It will be okay"
I turn around and look Callicus into his eyes.

"I told you to stay" I spoke
"I did not want you to see me naked"
Callicus didn't say a word as he walk to the bed and pull off the duvet, he wraps it around my body and secured it with many knots.

"Where's Eron, for I know you were with him before?" I spoke.
Callicus only sighed.
"I was chased away by his pack. He tried to kill me Isabella"

"That's absurd! For there must been some reason for his doings" I spoke.

"Isabella, you hardly know his man and you believe that he is as innocent?" Callicus spoke, stretching out his arms and frowning his face.

"Why yes, for he is my mate Callicus! He was right about me being a werewolf so that must mean he is right about me being his mate, I must find him Callicus I must!" I spoke.

Callicus grabs a hold of me, looking me into my eyes.
"It can't be true! It just can't, he's gone now Isabella, you will never find him!"

"Why don't you like him? What has he ever done to you Callicus?" I spoke, rage feeling in my voice. For this was Farrah, becoming angry.

"He's taking away my love!" Callicus suddenly shouts, shaking me in the process.
I look at him as though he was mad.

"Callicus...what are you saying?" I spoke gently.

"Is it not obvious?" Callicus spoke.

Surely it wasn't! What is he speaking of? How did my mate take away his love?
I shook my head in response.

"I am in love with you Isabella, don't you see?"

I stop speaking, I look at him with such disgrace. For I see what he is, I see his plan! I should have known! He is sir Mochief's friend, therefore he's working with him!

"You lying fool! You only want me to fall in love with you so you may take me back to sir Mochief!" I spoke as I wiggled out of his grip.

"Isabella that isn't true!" Callicus say, grabbing me again.
I lift my foot up and pressed it upon his leg with hard force. his body flew back. I quickly grab the note my mate had wrote for me and walk out the home, I must get away from Callicus, for any moment now he will try to get me killed.

"Isabella!" He shouts my name.
I ignore his calls as I walk away. A sudden tug upon my arm had me facing him.

"That isn't true, for I dearly do love you" Callicus spoke.

"Why didn't you save me then? Why did you wait until I found my mate to say something?" I spoke.

"Fear...but I am no longer afraid" Callicus spoke.

I sigh, knowing what I am about to say, will hurt him if he so calls loves me.

"Callicus, I am not in love with you. For my heart belongs to Eron" I spoke softly.
I can see the hurt reflecting from his eyes as his grasps upon me grew tighter.

He faces me, placing his index finger just above my chin and moving his face towards mine.
My heart did not flutter, I felt no emotion as he lips pressed upon mines. He moved his body towards mines, grasping me by my waist.
Farrah rejected it heavy. I break away from the kiss, wiping the extra saliva from my mouth.

"Did that change your mind?" Callicus says.
I walk to him, a deep hatred in my eyes as I raise my hand and swipe it upon his cheek.

"Don't you ever do that again" I spoke. A bit of confidence rubbed off of me, for this is my first time, standing up for myself.
