matter what. You are not force to love your mate, but you just naturally love your mate. Your mate is your other half. If your mate dies, than you can never love someone and you will die along with your mate. Even if you did love someone, you don't have that type of feelings that you get from your mate. In some rare cases, a female werewolf could have more than 1 mate. But in that case, the werewolf happens to get angry and fight. They would fight for the female and the last one standing is proven to be the real mate."

I nodded.

"Is it true that werewolf eat raw meat?" That question disguised me, but I have to find out.

He chuckled, "Unfortunately, yes."

I gasped and said, "Ewww!"

He laughed.

"Oh, let's move on to the next question."

"Wait, so you are saying that after I am not sick, I can really eat raw meat and think it is the best thing in the whole world?" I asked.

"Yeah," Jason chuckled.

Than I paused, I left a thought wonder.

"And you are also saying that we are . . . mates?" I asked really quietly.

I almost think that he didn't hear me and let that question leaves, but he answered me instead.

"I guess, because my mom and dad won't make me marry someone that I can't love." Jason whispered, and I didn't think I would hear that, but I did.

"Oh," I said and than there were silence in the air. I looked out of the window and leaned on the wall.

Than there was a knock on the door.

"Come in." Jason said.

All of my stylist came in and all of their faces had a big and goofy grin.

"Vanessa, come here!" Sunny squealed and I blushed. It felt embarrassing, especially in front of Jason.

"Yes?" I asked and they pointed out the door.

"So?" Valerie asked, "How was the first family dinner?"

"Family?" I asked, "Yeah, family." I have to get used to calling them family.

"Well, it is a really good night. I really like them and thanks to you guys, I look like a princess from a fairy tale! I don't know how I can thank you." I said and hugged them.

"Awwwh!" Vicky said and hugged me so tightly, I felt dizzy when she left go.

"Well, have a good day, sweetie." Beth told me and hugged me.

"Bye," I said and walked inside. I went straight to the closet and stared at the clothes.

"SUNNY!!! COME HERE!" I shouted and Sunny quickly ran into the room.

"Sunny, where are all of my clothes? These are not my clothes." I said and picked up a sweater on the hanger.

"Well . . ." Sunny said, "Well . . . I umm . . . threw all of your other clothes away and I kinda replace the old clothes with the new ones that I have brought."

I opened my mouth to speak.

"Wait! But the new clothes are like a whole lot more fashionable." Sunny said and grinned.

I gasped, "What?! When did you do that?" I asked.

"Yesterday, when you were eating dinner. I was bored and I thought your closet needed a TOTAL make - over, so yeah." Sunny said.

"Ok, so you basically threw away ALL of my old clothes." I asked.

"Yeah and I spent hours and hours in the mall, just to buy you designers’. By the way, they are all your size." Sunny said and grinned.

I sighed, "Thanks, though."

She nodded and headed out of the room. I quickly grabbed an outfit and changed. I grabbed a coat and a shoe and walked out of the closet.

"Where you are going?" Jason asked, looking up from the computer.

"Somewhere, I don't want to be stuck here."

"Where?"

"Outside, taking a walk."

"But there's no place to walk here."

"Yeah, there is the forest." I pointed out.

"NO, you can't go there." Jason said and widened his eyes.

"Yes, I can!" I said and ran out the bedroom.

"Hey, wait up!" Jason shouted, but I ignored him. I wanted to explore the forest, it seem interesting and full of mysteries.

I ran to the front door and threw the door open. The forest air felt me on the face. It was calming and I like it.

"Follow me." Jason said and walked ahead of me.

He is fast! I thought.

Jason walked quickly and I walked slowly behind him. I want to get away from him; I walked even slower, until I couldn't see him.

YES!! I CAN FINALLY EXPLORE ON MY OWN! I thought and grin.

I walked on a different direction from him and walked deeper into the forest. I walked up to the part of the forest where I almost can't see.

"Wow!" I said, "Never knew how dark this could be."

I grinned and smiled.

I gotta do this more often I thought.

I kept on walking and walking into the forest and who knows how deep I been in there?

I looked around, until I heard a swoosh.

I froze and my eyes widened.

Than I heard it again. My heart beats.

"Ahh, someone is here." someone behind me said. I swear, you could hear my heart beat. It was pounding on my chest I think it's about to break my rib cage.

"A tasty treat, that's what." Its low voice whispered. I slowly took a step forward and slowly turn around. The man has dark features, but has pale white skin and his canines are extended. There were bloods dripping down of them.

My eyes widened in horror.

The wind picked up and it was getting colder.

He closed his eyes and gave the air a great big sniff.

"Ahh, you are a werewolf, I see." his said and walked closer to me. My hand clenched.

He put one of his pale hands on my cheek and I jumped up from the coldness that came off of his hands.

Vampire I thought and my eyes widened.

He learned in and sniffed me again. I froze; I didn't know what to do. He leaned in even closer and one of his canines brushed against my skin.

I shoved him away and screamed. I started running away from him as far as possible, before he could stand up. I knew vampire has sonic speed.

I run for the sake of my life and didn't dare to turn back. I did a quick prayer in my head.

By a sound of swoosh, he caught up to me and grabbed me by the neck. He tightened his hold around my neck. I screamed in panic and tried to wiggle free. 

"Bitch, your not going anywhere. I am going to eat you!" the vampire sneered at me.

"LET GO!" I screamed and tried to kick him.

He threw me on the tree and I hit the tree hard, on the head. I gave a loud scream of pain.

The pain in my head was bursting in my head, the pain exploded everywhere.

The vampire laughed and kneel down next to me.

"Uh," he said softly, "Your blood is . . . strong. I smell it and it is beautiful."

I gasped from the pain in my head. It felt worst every second that pass. I was breathing quickly.

He placed a freezing, cold hand on my neck and I shivered.

"Don't . . . TOUCH ME!!!" I screamed put my hand by the side of my head.

My head was vibrating in pain.

He chuckled and leaned in. I squeezed my eyes shut and the pounding of my heart was beating a mile per second.

His canines touched my skin and quickly and greedily chopped into my skin. I screamed from all of the pain - my head, my shoulder and my neck. I could feel my blood being taken out of me - quickly, greedily - and I knew I was very close to die. My hand dropped from the side of my head.

I couldn't stop screaming.

"VANESSA!!!" Jason voice shouted and I heard him running.

I opened my eyes and my world spun quickly.

The vampire took one last big gulp and ripped his head from my neck. I breathed hard, the oxygen from my lungs felt thin and my body was moving up and down unconscious. The pain in my head, shoulder and neck was unbearably painful. I cried of pain.

I turned my head with my last bit of energy to look at Jason. I have never seen Jason like this, his eyes were silver, his nails were extended and canines were a bit long.

"WHAT DO YOU DO TO HER, YOU SON OF A BITCH?" Jason said and lunged from the vampire. The vampire charged full speed at him and they fought. Jason grabbed his head and yanked his head apart in front of my eyes.

My stomach twisted, starting to feel nauseated.

He threw the head and the body on the floor and ran to me.

"Vanessa," he said softly. His lifted my body and held it in his arm. His squeezed me closer to him. I didn't realize that

I was shivering like crazy.

He brushed my spray hair away from my sweaty face.

My head felt like it was stabbed from his quick touch.

He held me closer to him and I realized how cold I felt.

He put his - now - bloody - hands gently on my head and started exclaiming my opened, oozing split. I cried of pain.

My tears spilled out.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." he whispered quickly.

"Jason," I whispered with creaks in between, "I . . . I -"

Than, I passed out in his arms.

~~

I woke up from the pain in my head. I felt like someone threw a hammer on my head and someone is spinning the bed. I opened my eyes and everything was blurry around me.

I heard beeping and small chattering.

When everything was clear, I looked around me.

Where am I? I though.

"Vanessa, you are awake!" a lady said. I stared at her before I remember who she was. Mrs. Cohen.

Than, a hand squeezed my hand. I looked at the person who squeezed my hand. Jason.

"How do you feel?" Mrs. Cohen asked me. I turned back to her and opened my mouth to speak, but nothing can out.

She snapped her finger and a maiden came in, bring a cup of water. She pushed it on my lips and I hungrily drank it.

Than, she asked again, "How do you feel now, honey?"

I forced my voice out and said, "My head hurts." I put my hands on my head and it hurts like crazy. I was feeling dizzy too.

"Oh, you got stitches on your head, do you remember?" Mrs. Cohen said. I pushed my eyebrows together.

"Do you remember anything from last week?" Jason asked and squeezed my hand.

I pulled my hands away said, "Last week?"

"Yeah,"

"No, what happen?" I asked.

I thought hard and tried to remember what happen last week.

Jason looked at Mrs. Cohen.

I tilted my head and thought even harder, trying to ignore the hammering pain. Than, everything came - what happened. I shivered.

"That was last week?" I asked.

"Yeah."

Than I asked, "Where am I?"

"We are in the city's best hospital." Mrs. Cohen said and grinned.

"Does my family know about this?" I blurted.

Mrs. Cohen frowned and said, "No,"

My parents probably think I am perfectly fine, right now.

I shook my head, Why would I be thinking about them, when they made me do this?

"Can I be excused, I am very tired and I want to rest." I asked.

"Sure honey," Mrs. Cohen said right away and she walked to the door.

"Sleep tight. Ring the bell if you need me." she said and walked out the door.

I stared at the ceiling and blinked for a few moment.

Why wouldn't the pain go away?

I asked. I massaged my temple, but it hard every second I touched it. I laid there on the bed, just staring at the ceiling before my eyelids dropped.

~~

The next time I woke up feeling like my head was bang on the wall a thousand of times.

I could feel the world spinning and my heart beat fast for no reason.

Beep, beep . . . beep, beep . . . beep, beep . . . beep, beep

I focused my eyes to open, but the brightness of the world was too bright, so I closed my eyes again. I opened them again, trying to let my eyes adjust. It was
