2 Chapter 2

Him

I inhale deeply, she's showering. I'm in her house. Again. I know I scared her before, taking things. I can't help myself she is so delicious. I long and ache for her delicate touch. I want to bury my nose in that beautiful hair, in between her breasts and kiss her until she can't breathe. I slipped into the bathroom, she wouldn't see me even if she looked and as she pleasured herself I too, took pleasure in that. I slip out quietly.

I won't take anything today. I just want to be close to her. I will be careful. If she sees me, our little game is over. And that can't happen yet. My precious flower has much to learn before she'll be ready for me. But still, I can't be too far away from her. My other half.

I sigh as I think all of the heartbreak that will come with all of her lessons and can't control my anger as I think about her hurting. Physically, mentally or emotionally. I want to save her from this world. I want to cloak her in my protection and keep her tucked under my arm forever as we run away.

My little flower doesn't know it yet, but today will not be an easy day for her as she thinks. Her parents have news. Her 21st birthday is tomorrow and her world and everything she thinks she knows, is about to be rocked.

"Calum!" I boom in my head, no one can hear me except him unless I choose otherwise.

"Yes my lord" he says in his calm voice, Calum is one of the few I trust, and a descendant of mine somehow. I haven't bothered to find out what he is to me.

"Today is the day. Rose will be making the drive to her parents. Please go with her and protect her. Especially at midnight when she hits 21." I've inserted Calum as a close friend to Rose, unknowing to her. He appeared in the right place at the right time a few times until they were forced to talk and "realized" they had "a lot in common". I can't help but roll my eyes. Calum knows who she is and wouldn't dare cross a line, but it fancies me to have one of my strongest men close by at all times. Especially as she got nearer to her birthday. She considers him a friend and confides in him regularly. I always know what's going on but it's nice to know what she's thinking and how she's feeling. Calum knows I will personally rip each vein from his body and break each limb should he even think to touch her or make an advance on her.

But Calum isn't who I'm worried about.
