Chapter 1 - Finding Isabella

APOV

I have been alone for so long, over 200 years, and to have seen I would find someone to spend this life with. A real Friend, my soul sister, I could not be happier.

I was on my way to my studio, I design clothing, when I smelt the blood. Freesia, such a lovely scent. I followed it to find a women being badly beaten, I arrive just as the man was about to do the unthinkable. I could not stand by and allow him to harm this girl that way, so I interfered.

I am not one for killing, I do not feed on humans, I knew from the beginning another way of life was possible. So to kill this man, it went against everything I believed in but I would not let him harm her any longer.

When I turned to tend to her I noticed her heart rate was slowing, she was fading fast. I acted without thought, bit her allowing my venom to enter her veins. Once she began to scream and I could hear her heart get stronger, I took her and ran.

Three days later…

I waited for her to awaken, I checked to see how long….4 seconds.

She sure awake in 4 seconds. I could barely contain my excitement and the thought of finally having a sister, a friend.

She opened her eyes…. "Am I dead?" she asked me.

"No, do you remember the things I told you?" I asked her. She nodded, "Yes."

"They are true, you are now a Vampire like me" I told her again "listen, can you hear your heart beat?"

"No, there is not sound in this room" she paused "you don't even breathe!"

"No we do not need to breathe but it does get uncomfortable to go without a scene of smell" I confessed.

Realization shone in her eyes. "You saved me. I remember that, you saved me before could…Thank you" she could not finish.

"There is not need to thank me" I told her.

"Why did you change me?""You would have died otherwise, and when I saw you I knew your face. I saw it in a vision many years ago. I knew we would be friends, best friends" I confessed to her. She hugged me then, "thank you for saving me, for seeing me" she paused "I always wanted a sister" she told me.

I smiled, "Me too, and now we do" I told her and she smiled.

"lets go hunting I am sure your throat must burn" I told her. Her smiled fade.

I could see what she would say. "I do not hunt Humans, only animals" I told her.

"How did you know I was going to ask you that?" she asked. Didn't we just cover this?

"I told you I saw you the first time in a vision. I can see the future, I saw you would ask" I told her. I took her hand and lead her to the forest.
