A Vampire's Slave

XXI

Noda and Julia were holding me up. They are not as fast as me, this I know but with the speed they were going, I would never catch up to the guys.
I no longer cared if they could keep up, we started to run a faster speed until Eron, Harold, and Weston came into clear view. Surely I can out run them, for I have done it before with my mate.
I picked up speed, passing them all until I was running with Callicus. Surely he hadn't known I was near him, for he kept his head straight, running with a purpose. I went behind him, knocking him on our back and continue to run, even faster.

I soon began to realize that I have no idea of where to put him. For I am not familiar with the forest and have no way of speaking to Callicus through my werewolf form. So I stop running. Once I stop, Callicus slide off my back and hit his head upon a tree. I trot to him, his face scrunched in pain as he held the top of his head.

Different scents came to my nose as I turn around to see everyone making their way to where I am.
Eron was in the front with his Beta and Gamma staying close beside him.

Farrah let out a vicious growl, not planting her paw but allowing her voice to be heard. Surely we won't hurt our mate, but I merely hope he will just back down and leave Callicus in peace.

Noda and Julia finally joined us, taking there places beside me.

We all stared at one another, pure silence until Eron lifted his head and howled. With the sound of his voice, a guard comes whistling through the trees. It took a few moments but I could hear the ruffling and tree branches snapping before the guard appeared with clothing in his hand.

As quickly as I can, I change back to my normal form, putting on the white dress that the guard have brought me. Surely there were much more eyes than when it was only Eron and I.

" I see we must work on your mind-linking a bit more. It was quite awkward standing there in silence" Eron spoke once we all were fully clothed. I turned around to see Callicus blinking his eyes rapidly, had he fallen asleep?

I frown, I had just mind-linked with Noda and I heard her. Why is not the same for Eron?

You were concentrating too hard on something else perhaps?
Farrah suggested.

'You would know more of this than I.' I told Farrah.

"Do not worry my love, we shall work upon it...but I cannot help but to wonder why do you continuously try to protect him?!" Eron spoke.

"Eron, you cannot kill him! He has helped you-"

"And I granted him protection. I was supposed to be done with him after that"

"He is the reason of me finding you once again, Eron" I spoke.

"My love, I cannot stand here and debate about why I should let him live or not. He has caused enough damage upon us. How could you trust him? He is companions with Mochief. He is a traitor, he is up to something and I refuse for him to drag you down with him. I simply cannot allow that to happen" Eron spoke. He walks closer to me, his white buttoned up shirt, clung tightly to his torso.

"If Luna decides on him staying alive why can't you agree?" Julia says.
Eron growls at her, shutting her up quickly.

"It does not matter if one's past. Besides, you know he isn't welcomed there any longer. He is alone!" I spoke to him.

"My love-"

"However, Callicus you must oblige by rules, to this day you are forever more banned from the castle, you shall not step foot anywhere near the castle. This will be the last time we shall ever see each other, am I understood?" I spoke. I must do this in order to ensure everyone's safety. If it must be that I can no longer see Callicus, than so be it!

You are setting orders Isabella! My personality must be rubbing on you just a tad. Farrah spoke.

"Isabella, I must see your-"

"It is settled! You will not step foot near the castle nor near my love. If you do, she cannot save you no longer, I will end you." Eron growls.

Callicus said nothing.

"Alright then, this is goodbye" I spoke. I gave Callicus a quick wave as I trotted to Eron's side.

"Isabella wait" Callicus suddenly says.
"If this is indeed the last time I shall ever see you, grant me the wish to embrace you"

I  sigh as I turn around, just as I did, Callicus wraps his arms around me, holding me tightly.
"I shall surely miss you" Callicus whispers in my ear.
"Soon we shall be-"

"That is enough!" Eron growls. He walks to us, snatching me away from Callicus and throwing me upon his back.

"Goodbye Callicus, have a nice life" Eron spoke before whisking away through the forest and back to the castle.

"Leave me and Luna alone, I must speak with her in private" Eron spoke to Harold, Weston, Julia, and Noda once we made it back to the castle.
They all obliged, Noda and Harold going one way and Weston and Julia going the other.
Eron takes my hand and leads me up the stairs and into the room where I shall sleep with him. The walls were burgundy with golden rims. A huge bed laid in the middle of the room with golden drapes and silk blankets. As well as two night stands that held small white candles. A couch sat in the front of the bed with a small black coffee table and another couch, similar to the first one, on the other side. On the left side of the room stood a fireplace with a couch in front of it, a bookshelf as well. Two doors on the other wall. One held the closet and the other held an extravagant wash room.

"My love, I hate how Callicus stares at you. For I see he wants to take you away from me" Eron spoke, grasping me by my waist.

"Do not be alarmed Eron. He could never do such a thing, for it is I who am in love with you" I spoke. I am beginning the like this sudden boost of confidence.

"And I am in love with you" Eron spoke. His face coming closer to mine. My heart began to beep with such heavy thuds as my hands found theirselves upon Eron's cheek.

Instantly, all memory of Callicus began to fade from my memory. It is Eron who I truly want.
Who I wish to spend my life with.

"I wish to mark you" Eron spoke, just above a whisper.

The conversation I had with Julia and Noda came buzzing in my head. The pain, then the pleasure..the marking meant I am forever to be with Eron....was I prepared?

"You may do so" the words slipped from my mouth. Eron only smiles as he seal the gap from our face, placing his lips upon mines. Tingles shot through my body, moving my arms to around Eron's neck and cheeks.
I wish I could say this is my first kiss, but that was stolen by Callicus.

Eron's lips moved from mine, Farrah whimpered for she wanted to continue to taste his lips. Surely I have never felt this way before but I never want it to end.

I know not much is happening but this is a BIG moment for Isabella!! I cannot believe how Farrah is changing the story so much!!
But anyways ⭐️ and⌨️ pleasessssss and thanks for reading!!
