Synopsis: Rachel enlists the Cullen's help to find Christopher. However, Carlisle is about to discover a shocking secret that will change his life forever.
A Discussion of Betrayal
The next week Carlisle was having a slow day at the hospital so he struggled with keeping his private thoughts away from work. His nurse, Linda, came by his office to let him know he had an appointment waiting. Carlisle waited for the preliminary paperwork but it didn't arrive.
Carlisle was about to call his nurse when she came and said, "There's a Mrs. Rachel Lapp wanting to see you... immediately!" Linda said as she rolled her eyes.
"Where's her paperwork?" asked Carlisle.
"Listen Carlisle..." Linda began, "The lady's a weirdo, trust me on this. She refused the paperwork and said she was here to see you about a 'Christopher?'"
Carlisle immediately stood up, "Is he with her?" he asked quickly.
"No, she's all alone," replied Linda.
"Okay.. Send her in...no calls or interruptions please," replied Carlisle.
Linda gave him a funny look as she left the office. A few minutes later, Linda ushered the woman into his office and left.
The woman appeared middle-aged, green eyed, and her dark hair was neatly pinned-up under a white bonnet. She wore a black pinafore dress over a gray blouse. Carlisle quickly looked her over... he hadn't seen anyone dress like that since he was young. He stared openly at the woman as she took a seat...soon her green eyes were upon him.
"All right," Carlisle began, "I'm sick and tired of what's going on. I mean SICK! I demand that you tell me just what's going on?" Carlisle had rarely felt himself so furious. He actually found himself swearing...using words that he didn't even know that he knew existed.
Something Carlisle had not let happen for an eternity was happening... he was unleashing the monster that lurked within him.
"What in the hell is Christopher and what does he want with us!?" proclaimed Carlisle. "And don't you deny that Bynjin and Arvil have a piece in this as well!?" Carlisle sneered. He'd just about had enough of this ridiculousness.
Rachel flashed her green eyes at Carlisle, and then she gave him a look and a smirk that had nothing to do with being a middle-aged Amish woman.
"Hmmmm...Bynjin said you were a pretty nice guy... for a vampire of course," said Rachel."What do you wish to know?" Rachel asked.
"Why don't we start with everything?" Carlisle retorted.
Rachel raised her brows, "Hmm... You don't want to know much." Carlisle continued his serious gaze.
