Chapter One The Quest Begins

BPOV

I bumped into people as I ran around the subway trying to catch the first train to work. I lived in New York now, away from the place where I had lost my child. It had been three years but I still had the memory of the doctor telling me, in my head. I was twenty, an age where I was on an edge in my career as a secretary for a CEO. I sat on an empty seat but had the odd feeling someone was watching my every move. Thinking it was an idiotic man I looked around and my eyes landed softly on the three year old next to me. His eyes were bright green and his hair a dark shade of brown, he looked innocent.

"Hello," I whispered slowly, he blinked and his eyes started to tear up. My I-had-no-idea-it-existed- motherly instinct kick in.

"I can't find my mommy," he said crying a little, I pulled him onto my lap and he placed his head on my shoulder.

"It's okay, what your name?" he sniffed a little after I asked.

"Cristian," he said after a second of silence. I stood up and placed him on my hip.

"Anybody lose a boy? Maybe three or four, he says his name is Cristian," I looked around once again but nobody said anything. The subway stopped on my stop and I walked out with the kid in my arms. "I'm gonna go to security okay?" he nodded slowly against my shoulder and I walked over to security. They explained about how if they could take child he would be traumatized for a while but that if I took him and waited for a phone call from his parents the child would be better. I nodded.

He was holding my hand by this point and sucking his thumb. "Where am I going now?" he asked in his small child voice.

"To work with me," I said smiling softly and walking towards the building that I worked in. When I walked into the elevator, Angela the secretary of the building ran in with me.

"Good morning Bella," she said looking through some papers.

"Morning, what does Ben want now? You're never on the elevator,"

"Oh just some fun on the de- oh hi there," said Angela interrupting herself before she told the child she was about to sleep with the Vice president of the company.

"Hiya," said Cristian smiling slightly and looking cute. The elevator stopped on Ben's floor and Angela got out. She winked at me and I just shook my head. As we neared my boss's floor, Cristian squeezed my hand. I looked down at him and his eyes seemed to widen slightly. I kneeled down beside him.

"What's wrong baby?" I asked him and he launched himself on to me holding onto my neck for dear life. I picked him up as the elevator came to a stop. I took him to my desk and sat him down on it. His breathing had picked up and he seemed scared. "Cristian, it's okay, breath," I told him, his eyes widen and he stopped breathing.

"Hello Bella," came the voice of Mike Newton towering over my desk. I sighed annoyed already.

"Goodbye Newton," I said looking down at my work and preparing myself for the arrival of my boss.

"Did you hear he might not come in today? I could take you to the-"

"Goodbye Newton," he sighed and left to his desk as my boss arrived. I stood as he entered.

"Morning Bella,"

"Good morning James," I said smiling slightly. James nodded towards me, signaling to send in his next victim. I picked up the phone. "Yes, is Ms. Carly Waston and Michaela Micheals at the desk? Yes Mr. Carler would like to see them," I nodded as I heard the name speak then realized he couldn't see me. "Oh well that's too bad, I'm sure they'll show up." I hung up the phone and stood to go to the office. Cristian grabbed my shirt. "I'll be right back," I told him, I kissed his forehead and went in to James's office.

"James?"

"Yes, Bella?" he was looking over some paperwork when I arrived.

"Your clients seemed to have disappeared," he smirked slightly as he always did, enjoying this fact. I never knew why and I didn't really want to know.

"Well that's too bad," he said not looking up.

"Take the day off Bella, you obviously need it,"

"Excuse me sir?"

"That kid, I don't wanna see him here tomorrow,"

"But sir-"

He looked up his cold red eyes hard while he raised an eyebrow as in to say I dare you.

"Yes sir he wouldn't be here," I closed the door to his office and walked out grabbing my things and grabbing Cristian. He placed his arms around my neck tightly. I went home right after, taking a taxi. It was incredible how my life had turned around with just one miscarriage. On the ride home, Cristian fell asleep on my lap. When I got home, I paid the taxi driver and took Cristian in while he was asleep. I laid him on the couch. When I got up to do something else he starred at me. I tilted my head and started to move his long hair out of his face.

"Mommy," he stated simply. I chuckled silently.

"No I'm not your mommy," Cristian shook his head.

"You my mom," he said in the most adult voice a three year old could have.

"No, your mom is looking for you and the police will contact me when they find her," Cristian sat up.

"Come on! Home much more convincing do you need?" my eyes widen. "I came all this way to find you mom! I need your help!" I tilted my head. I must be going insane.

"What?"

"They've put up my brothers and sisters up for adoption mom! You have to help me find them and then find dad!"

"What?"

"Mom! We are the babies you lost!"

"Precisely, lost! What am I doing, I'm arguing with a three year old!" I shook my head.

"I look three but my metal capacity is for an eleven year old! Please mom!"

Something struck me then. Those green eyes seemed to innocent for me to not believe them.

"How do you have the metal capacity of an eleven year old?" I asked quietly.

"Because I'm half vampire," my eyes widen and the next thing I knew I was on the ground.
