"You could have done better than that Alec." I scowled him, his head shot up to me with narrowed eyes. "I wouldn't have to have been like that if you wouldn't have hand turned us to humans." he stood up as he growled, anger took over me. So I stood up and yelled "If it weren't for me all of you would have been dead by now. Vampire or not!" I took a deep breath and calmly said, "I chose you to live, now don't make me regret it." Demetri then stood up and asked "What do you mean?" I stood quiet and gazed down at the cayote. "WHAT DO YOU MEAN!?!" Demetri yelled out in fustration, I turned to him my eyes hard. "People are after you all, so they sent me to come get you. They told me that I have to come back with you three on a specific day." I replied, they looked more confused Jane stood up next to the others. "Who are after us?" she asked, I turned to her, "My sisters." I breathed out I looked away from them and turned back to them with guilty eyes. "My sisters are after you." Alec stepped closer to me and asked "Why do you feel guilty?" I looked him in the eye, "I'm the reason this whole mess started and I'm going to end it." I growled out in pain and anger as I was at the edge of tears. 'I will not show weakness' I growled at myself, I then turned to Jane with kind eyes. "And I'll need your help." I then averted my eyes to Demetri and Alec, "all of your help." My eyes lingered to Alec the most until Demetri spoke, "And why would we help you if you are the reason we're being hunted?" I turned to him and said with determination, "You'll be offered a second chance in life, you'll get to have a family," I then turned to Alec and Jane, "and you'll get the chance to have a childhood you deserved."
"That's if we agree," Demetri spoke, I turned to him and said, "No one is forcing you to agree or not. You're free to leave, but do remember that I am the one keeping you safe." I sat down on the ground next to the animal, Jane followed asuite as did Alec and Demetri. "What do you get in return if it goes according to plan?" I looked at her with no emotion, "I'll get back what was taken from me." Alec than asked, "What was taken from you?" I avoided his question and just answered with. "It doesn't matter what was taken from me, as long as I get it back." I then laid on my back looking up the ceiling and closed my eyes as I took a deep breath.
"What did you find?" I asked, he breathed out and replied "Patientes igitur estote, amica mea." 'Patient my love.' He caressed my cheek with his thumb, and dipped his head. My breath caught in my throat as he leaned closer, I stood frozen. I then started to lean closer, our lips inches away from each other, my eyes flckered to his lips then to his eyes repeatedly. His eyes were only focused on my lips, as our lips brushed against each other he pulled away. I was disappointed that we didn't kiss, so looked up at him and saw him looking around our surroundings. "Come on." he tugged on my hand and walked on the large rocks. It was dark out until Nathaniel grabbed a thick stick that had cloth around the tip. I knew it was dry so I consintrated on the stick imagining that it lit up on fire, it soon did. It made Nathaniel smile as he saw how happy I was when I did it. There were strict rules against magic, so we had to be careful where we did it, and how we used it. He held it high as we continued to walk further, our hands were glued together as we walked. Soon we didn't have to watch we were going since the ground became a solid surface. Nathaniel then placed the torch on one of the hooks attached to the Cave wall. After he placed it he turned to me with a smile and announced a title that made me gasped.
I woke up earlier than usual, I got up and saw that Jane, Alec and Demetri were still asleep. I then turned to my side and saw that the cayote was sitting up wide awake and alert. "Wake up!" I announced loud enough for each of them to stir in their sleep. It didn't work as planned so I turned to the cayote with knowing eye. It understood what I meant so it slightly nodded, I first packed up our stuff and exit out of the cave with it. A moment later I heard growling in the cave, then their were some yelps and cries. They ran out with the cayoteclose behind, I whisled making the cayote stop and the others turn to me. "Are you ready Demetri?"
