I picked her shoes and grabbed a few blood tablets from the cabinet of master's office we exchanged looks both of mutual understanding. Bring her back safe he commanded and with that I bolted.
To be true I did not have to be told that, I am indebted to her and keeping her safe is my first priority but we really were running out of time we had to make it to the cellar before the sun set.
I could only imagine what the young mistress must be feeling right now but her father was showing her tough love he needed to do this there simply was no other way . I followed her scent. Her smell was different from other vampires and wolves it was mysterious yet so alluring left you wanting more ; my nostrils were filled with the scent of lavender and freshly chopped rosemary and the hint of lemon. Bingo.
There I found where she had jumped through the glass. I tapped the surface of the glass with a clawed finger and watched as the whole thing shattered.
I hurried out, there is only one place she could have run off to and instinctly my body bent towards the white pine tree round at the back of the mansion it really did stick out like a sore thumb. Curled beneath the great tree was Clementine she looked so vulnerable despite her size and form.
My heart throbbed at the sight as I leaped towards her encompassing the broken wolf stroking it's back and playing with its ears a somewhat satisfied growl escaped its throat.
"You shouldn't have run off like that you know, your father means well and now you have worried him even more" it turned its head facing away from me at least I know she's listening
" C'mon princess we have to leave as soon as possible I know you do not like the idea but it is only for a few days" she only responded with a grunt.
"okay let us make a deal I promise to go book hunting with you in town after we come back only if you cooperate now " her emerald eyes lit up but only momentarily for they quickly returned to their pitiful state .
But my offer must have worked. With a huff she decided to slowly transform back her head still resting on the hard ground. I raised it to my lap wiping away any excess tears "but why are my own parents scared of me" it came out as a whimper her brows creasing with a hurt expression on her face.
I stroked loose strands of her rich brunette hair away from her face "they're not scared of you but wrather FOR you they are frightened of the outcome but they love you Clem and that is for certain. " She pouted finding it hard to look for an opposing argument "but I simply do not wish to go there I'm scared of ...what I might do or become"
In that moment I scooped her into my arms fiercely hugging her "I did not train all my life and become your guardian to NOT protect you" my expression was stern I really meant it "I will gladly give my life to you on a golden platter!" Her eyes widened "come on let us get going."
I did not expect her to feel what I did but the closeness of her soft body against my solid one sent me flying her curvaceous body fit so perfectly to mine. Her smell sent electricity through my veins making my heart pound in anticipation...but for what.
I pushed the thoughts out my head and reached for the shoes behind me. She would never see me in that way anyway. I carefully placed them on each foot. I got up and reached out a hand like I always did and she followed suit.
I like how things were now.
