A Vampire's Slave

XVII

I sat upon the ground, unsure of where to go but I know I must leave soon, for surely I will be captured by sir Mochief again and I wish not for that to happen.
"Isabella" Callicus says.
I ignore his calls, tears still trickling from my eyes.
"Isabella" Callicus call again.
Once again I ignore him, for I wish not to speak with him. How dare his kiss me after I told him I wish not to be with him? I told him who my heart belonged to.

"Isabella, please answer me" Callicus says. His footsteps coming closer to me.

Why can't this guy take a hint? I'll be so happy when we finally see Eron.

'Agreed' I spoke. I got off the ground, preparing to walk forward.

"Isabella, I know where he is, I know where Eron is" Callicus says.

"Where is he?" I spoke, my face still faced forward.

"He's....he's...you must come with me, I'll take you to him" Callicus says.
The corner of my lips rose up as I run to hug Callicus.

"Thank you! Thank you so much! Please we must go..we have no time!" I spoke, pulling Callicus by his arm.

Callicus picks me up, throwing me over his back and ran into the woods.
"First we must go to my home, for it is getting light outside, I must rest" Callicus says.

Although I was very anxious to see my mate, I must understand that Callicus is a vampire, therefore he isn't immune to the sun.
In a matter of seconds we were in front of a tall brick building. We were no longer in the woods but instead a place that was full of people, grass was replaced by light brown concrete, there were much more small homes and many shops.
We went inside one of the small homes, Callicus sat me upon a bed.

"You may sleep here, I shall sleep on the couch-

"No no, I mustn't take your comfort, I shall sleep upon the floor" I spoke.

"No, you are guest, and I am perfectly fine with sleeping on my couch, you just rest"
Callicus says. How fast he got up, He surely did not want me sleeping upon the floor.

I slowly lay back down, lifting my legs to my chest and my arm wrapped around my legs. It's just the way I sleep.

"So, you're a werewolf?" Callicus suddenly says, just as I was about to drift off to sleep.

"Yes" I spoke, looking into his brown eyes. A frown came upon his face as he look at the ground.

"But you're mixed..right?" Callicus continues.

"I believe so, for I am sure there isn't a wolf that can climb trees" I spoke.
With those word, Callicus leaped up.

"I knew it! Truly you have some vampire in you!"

"You're absurd Callicus! I simply cannot be two different creatures! I am simply werewolf and...human" I spoke, lifting from my spot.

"Isabella, a human cannot climb trees, I've seen the children in town try, the fall and hurt themselves"

"Callicus, there's a reason of me believing I am not a vampire, I can stay out in the sun, there's been plenty of times, when I was held with sir Mochief that I stood in the sunlight that gleamed from the window"
Callicus was only silent.

"It doesn't matter what you are, I still love you-"

"Callicus! I have told you, my heart belongs to Eron! I cannot have this discussion with you! My best advice is for you to find a human to date, I hear they are quite the type"

"Oh you're speaking like you haven't just claimed yourself as a human Isabella, I cannot believe I am about to say this, but you were much better with Mochief, you weren't as sassy, you weren't as gullible"
Callicus spoke, he rose from his spot.

Never had Callicus spoken so aggressive to me as he did just now. For truly I must've hurt his feelings. But everything I have said was merely the truth! And I have not changed my attitude. This is merely Farrah taking her side of me. Farrah is the complete opposite of me and she has truly changed me, for the good.

"I was never gullible" I spoke, rising from my spot and heading to the front door.

"I will leave" I spoke as I open the door.

"Isabella wait, please don't go, for it isn't safe for you, please, my apologies " Callicus says.
I sigh and turn away from the door, looking at Callicus who was staring at me.

"Very well then" I spoke and went back to my spot to go to sleep, for it will be a very special day, I get to see my mate.

In the eyes of Callicus
Callicus pov: truly I have turned on Isabella's bad side and when she finds out the truth, I will be on her bad side even more. I cannot believe that I have just had a disagreement with who I love, and to count that she's a werewolf. Not to sound cliché as much, but I am not the best of friends with werewolves, for I am barely friends with my own species.
I watch as Isabella climb back into my bed and drift off into her sleeping world.
Oh how I wish she would be in love with me and not Eron.
Why must she love him?
He isn't the one that's caring for her at this moment.
Surely he isn't the one that's risking his life, with absolutely no support from others! Shouldn't that show my love? Or is it the looks that Isabella is seeing?
Perhaps it is the reason of the two being mates?
Perhaps I can get Isabella to fall in love with me. For I know she has some type of feelings for me. I remember watching her in the mansion and how she would stare at me, never taking her eyes from me until Mochief comes and ruin everything.
But surely I myself have made the mistake of trusting a werewolf to break free my Isabella and give her back to me.
