Bella's pov:
Over the next couple days it was like a whirlwind. Carlisle was on the phone to 'contacts' and I was packing. I would be going to Zafrina.
Not all that exciting is it. But I was all for finding out my mysterious writer. And according to Carlisle Zafrina was as close to Benjamin as I was going to get.
I would be leaving as soon as Carlisle tracked down his tracking down a nomad; any nomad was hard. And although I knew we be able to track the last location, my hope was slipping though.
I was packing anyway. For summer or winter I was sure but I would pack for every season if it meant finding Benjamin. Even if things weren't going to work out I'd still be ready for any scenario.
Late Tuesday night we finally got the answer we were looking for. Zafrina, an Amazonic vampire had seen Carlisle's explained to her the note. And she agreed that she would help. So we set up a meeting with her. But I would have to fly to Montana.
I left Friday after writing a letter to Charlie. I'm sure once I got back I wouldn't be leaving the house again. And that didn't really bother me much considering my family wouldn't be here when I got back. And there was nothing here for me.
I hated flying and I wasn't looking forward to that. And so here I am on the big airplane waiting to take off. Trying not to freak out. I was to go to a ranch in the wilderness quite like the Cullen ranch. Zafrina would be there waiting. We would go over the best course of action.
I have to say I was eager to meet these human drinking friends of Carlisle's. Since Tuesday I had learned a lot about both and I had to admit the more vampires you knew the better.
The plane ride wasn't too long and before I could think about landing we were already. Carlisle had arranged a car for me to pick up. I had never really driven out of Phoenix or Forks so mountain ranges scared the shit outta me to be honest but I figured as long as I paid attention it wouldn't be to bad. And to my surprise, it wasn't that bad at all as long as you stayed away from the sides.
Let me tell you something else Montana was beautiful. The scenery was amazing. I wasn't sure how long we were staying but I did know I loved it there. And would be back someday.
When Carlisle and even Edward explained to me about mates I thought for sure my mate wasn't out there. Well I guessed since Edward left me. But the pull in my chest as soon as the plane landed had me second guessing myself.
I would be talking to Carlisle about it later.
The pull didn't ease up until I saw Zafrina on the front porch of the ranch. It wasn't gone but I could breathe me tell you what Zafrina was an Amazonian goddess. I was awestruck. From the perfect face to the amazing body. I wanted a piece of that. As I got out the car I was drooling.
And from the way she looked at me, I knew she wanted me too. Again something I was going as Carlisle about. Although I had a pretty good idea what it was.
"Hello little one. I'm Zafrina. I am the one Carlisle informed you of. Come let's talk and get a move on." I followed her in the ranch.
"First let me see the letter that was sent to you." She said smiling.
Oh god when she smiled she was sexy. And I was getting turned on by just being near her and hearing her voice. She of course smelled it but chose to ignore it for now.
I handed her the paper with the not on it. And she smiled wider. Then laughed a little.
"Well we won't have a problem tracking who sent the letter little one because the one that sent it is the same one who Carlisle thought would help. His name is Benjamin and I left him not long ago to meet with you. I will call and let him know you are hear."
With that she was out of the room. I could hear he talking on the phone. But it was mumbled and soon she was back in the room with me.
"He was happy you could join us. He will be hear soon. I had the fridge stocked so let's feed you then we can go relax on the couch and await Benjamins arrival."
I noodled my head. And after I ate we talked and got to know each other. But all to soon there was a knock at the door... And nothing could have prepared me for what was on the over side. Though it wasn't who I thought. Guess my dream man is still out there.
