PREFACE


CARLISLE

The fall winds whipped past my crumpled heap.
Taunting me, begging me to take the people in
the town not a couple miles away from me.

I wouldn't.

I huddled into a ball, curving in on myself and
digging my fingernails into my granite skin.
Wishing to die from the thirst only getting worse.

I couldn't.

A snarl emanating from the nearby forest caused
my head to jerk around. It sounded more like a
person's mouth caused it, my body took action
before my brain could and I was off toward the sound.

I shouldn't.

Be so eager, they were probably just like me,
tearing the flesh of some innocent human.
Instead, It was dark chocolate silk, smelling
of freesias attached to a chalky petite woman.

She wasn't

Anything like I thought, her feet were moving her
in an enchanting dance with a large cat like animal.
The cat got tired of the game and sprang.
She easily dodged it and snapped its neck cleaning.

She did

The impossible, attaching her mouth to its neck
now dripping wet sweet substance. Taking it all
down until the cat went limp in her small arms.
She easily cleaned up her mess, not a drop of
red on her beautiful dress, before burying the
body and disappearing quicker than I thought
possible.

A noise

caused my head to search frantically around
me. Cool fingers rested on my shoulder. A
beautiful voice, like honey coated velvet and silk.
"Are you thirsty?" Her large electric blue eyes
appraised me, I nodded and she took my
hand leading me into more tree's.

A doe

was what we found, grazing quietly. Before
it knew what was happening my blood lust kicked
in and I was snapping its neck cleaning attaching
my mouth to the sweet liquid flow.

I sighed

in content, glad I didn't have to take a life
to sustain myself. I was not one to be playing any kind
of god. A low growl told me I was not alone.

BELLA

The beautiful blonde haired man looked thirsty.
He had the ruby of newborn eyes and looked
hungry, like he'd been trying to starve himself.

He wouldn't,

Would he? Of course he would, you did the
same thing before you figured this out. I sighed
agreeing with my thoughts and watched as
he took the doe down happily.

I smiled

Happy that he was happy. Turning around I
saw a gray cloak floating toward the blond
man. I growled and stalked behind him, blurring
in and out of his focus.

Dazed

Was what the glazed over look
told me. I sprang and slammed him into a tree.
Go me! I internally smirked but kept a calm hard
mask on my face. "Why are you here?" Calm,
even, maybe even a bit of sarcastic friendly
added in there.

Shocked

At what? I don't know, I didn't care, I just
didn't want him to take the blond man from me.
Just observing the newborn, I'm no guard, just
didn't have anymore clothes.I don't want my
mistake to cost me.
Honest answer, I didn't buy it.
I narrowed my eyes and licked my teeth, wetting
the white so it glared in his eyes.

Squinting,

the fear in his eyes was evident. I smiled and
softened my grip. "I will take care of him, you
may leave." my tone was kind, but the threat
lie there, waiting for him to take. He understood
and nodded hastily. I smiled and dropped him to
the ground.

I swiveled

on my heel, almost smashing into the broad
chest of the blond man. "What is your name,
sir?" I asked still trying to shake the tension from
my voice. He ducked his head, a gentlemen, even.
Carlise. what a nice name for such a creature.
I smiled, kindly this time. "Welcome to my way
of life, if you wish to stick to it-" He nodded
cutting me off before ducking his head again.

I chuckled

"Good, then welcome to my home as well. Only
if you would like?" His eyes widened in shock
before he vigorously shook his head. I laughed
full out this time and held out my hand.

He eagerly

Took the outstretched limb. A current like lightening
struck through our intertwined hands up my arm.
I cocked my head questioningly but shook it off
and teleported us back to my home.

Bowing politely

his voice ran through my ears, You have a lovely
home miss...?
My turn to duck my head, "Isabella."
Features brightened his hold got tighter, I smiled
again and pulled him into my small cottage ducked
deep in the woods.
