Caleb

She walked into the room and my mind exploded.

My mate.

Mine.

Mine.

Mine.

It took all of my vampire strength to stay still as my nose scented her sweet blood that sang in the air. My hearing detected the rhythmic cadence of her heart beating, and my eyes feasted upon her. Guilt swirled with love and lust creating a kaleidoscope of confusion because at that precise moment, that second of time, my past love faded away. Not due to the years that had passed, but because at the side of this woman before me, my love for Rosemary faded to a black and white photograph, while here in front of me was high definition colour.

Rose tinted cheeks.

Dilated pupils.

Breaths getting deeper.

Heart beating faster.

I kept myself in check throughout the tour of the house, but during dinner the atmosphere of the room thickened. I couldn’t take my eyes off the one I knew was the other half of me. The one who completed me.

But there was one huge problem.

She was human.

How could a human woman be my fate?

My mate.

Because I’d made a vow to myself when my last love was slain and I was turned in such a ferocious manner. That I would sire no one.

So how did the woman who now walked next to me as we strolled towards the rose garden fit into my life? Was it to be a passionate love affair that ended when she realised she got older and I did not?

We reached the gate of the garden and I lifted the latch.

I turned to her. “Here we are, but I’m guessing you already know what grows here?”

“A little. The dreams blur a lot of what is here. They show me one rose mainly. It calls to me to come to it. To touch it.”

“Show me.”

She wandered on the path but as she turned, I already knew where she was going. It was like fate was thoroughly in control and I could not know why, but could only let it take me with it, like a fallen leaf blowing amongst the soil.

The parched ground of the path crunched beneath my feet as she reached the rose of her dreams.

It was called Rosemary’s legacy. The first rose I had bred; a tribute to my lost love.

And Vivienne had said it called to her in dreams.

Vivienne leaned down to it and sniffed the air. “Its fragrance is exactly like in my dreams.” She smiled up at me.

“And it asks you to touch it? Why?”

She stood again and sucked in her top lip, bringing her hands back to her sides. “When I touch it, something happens, and then my fate is set. My dreams tell me my present life will end.”

“What?” I gasped. “Step away from it. At once.” I yelled.

She took a few steps backwards in shock at the vehemence in my voice.

Then her green eyes met mine, amused. “I think it just means figuratively, like a new life starts for me here. How could a rose actually kill me, Caleb?”

“It is not impossible, though improbable.
