I was aware of my surroundings. No longer was I laying content with my beast. No I  was in my beloveds room my beast long gone . His human side the one that rejected me was waiting for me to wake up. To reject me again most likely. I do not think I could suffer through that again not when for  the first time in weeks I felt no pain no hunger. My beast made me feel complete he accepted me not carring about my vampire nature. Nurturing me back to health. The burning in my throat and chest were gone. Their was no ache.  I did not want to ache again so I gave no signs of life. I wanted him  to think I was still unconscious.  To prolong my feeling of fulfilment I pretending I was still recovering.

Nikko was not alone though. Culten was standing in the far right corner facing the door and window. I knew he was aware that I was awake. Still he did not utter a word and went along with my pretense.

"Nikko your parents called my father. Your Dad wants to talk to you" a familiar voice broke the silence. Ah yes. She was the she-wolf that helped me free Culten. Now she would help me free myself.

"Tell him I am not available" My beloved ordered. His hand never leaving mine. I wonder if he is trying to trick me into believing he his my beast so I will awaken and then have him reject me once more. He has not left my side once. He is cruel if only he loved me as his beast did.

"Your father  said it was urgent if you don't answer he will send Sean and Greg to come get you and drag you back home" she informed him. I felt him let go of my hand and heard the chair fall back as he stood up. As soon as the door slammed closed I sat up dropping my pretense.  Culten was at my side immediately.

"Kidnap your beloved We are heading back to the castle" I ordered standing up and making my way to the window not caring that all I was wearing was an over sized t-shirt . I threw the window open and jumped out landing gracefully on my feet before taking off in the direction of the town. I would not allow the human side to reject me once again. My heart ached for my beast but I knew what had to be done.

Thanks to my beast I was once again at my best, I reached my destination in mire minutes. Going back to the clothing store I compelled the human sales girl to ignore my presence and forget ever seeing me. She went about with her job as  I changed into a pair of high waisted jean shorts and a long sleeve black v neck shirt. I then proceeded to step 2  running bear-foot to the local airport and stopping at a gift shop for a pair of sandals once again compelling any human who I made contact . Then finally the third step . I needed to get out of this town far away from my beloved. I looked up at the board that displayed all departing times  quickly noticing  the next flight out to  Europe  had passengers boarding in 10  minutes in destination to the U.K.

"I need a ticket to the U.K first class" I stated the lady looked up surprised since she'd been talking to a man who I'd sent away.

"Sorry miss but that flight is sold out, I must ask you to wait in line like everyone else." she stated not at all looking remorseful more smug than anything. I narrowed my eyes at her. She was nothing but a walking blood bag.

"You will get me on that plane. No security check . No questions asked. In fact you will personally walk me to the plane and serve me a glass of red wine, understood" She nodded her eyes never leaving mine as I easly  compelled her . I extended my hand and she placed my ticket in it.

She then turned to the man a few feet away telling him that she would be going on her break. I sent the man a charming smile ordering him to forget me  then followed the human female as she led me right past security and to the boarding gates. Some security men tried to stop us but just like with the sales girl I compelled them to ignore and forget me.
