"Oh, uhm. It's nice to meet you Amelia but don't call me princess. Just Tara will do." I said politely.

"Okay, princess Tara." She responded and smiled at me as I rolled my eyes. Then she laughed. She sounded wonderful.

I couldn't help but join in. Her laughter was so contagious. "When Jake comes, tell him I'm in my room, okay?" I asked.

She nodded and turned to do whatever she was doing. I kissed Bella's forehead before leaving Amelia seemed nice.

She had brown short hair and deep green eyes. She had a babyish face that made her look cute.

She seemed lethal and dangerous yet bubbly and warm. I wish I could be like that. But I can't. I don't wanna get hurt anymore. I don't care anymore.

I cleared my thoughts as I headed to my room. I closed the door behind me and lay on the bed staring at the ceiling.

I was thinking of ways to torture my sire. If he hadn't changed me, I wouldn't be here. I wouldn't have met the Masked Monster.

My parents would still be alive and I wouldn't have killed anyone. I didn't want to sleep. The drugs were humming in my veins.

But I wanted more. I was craving it. I changed out of my bloody clothes and went back to bed. I was so tired of everything.

The last thing I saw in my mind before I lost consciousness were two pairs of dark blue eyes. I saw Jake's eyes.

I screamed and bolted upright. I as terrified. I felt nausea twisting in my gut as I ran to the bathroom and vomited blood.

I felt so horrible. I stripped out of my clothes and had a col shower. "Are you okay? I heard you screaming." Jake asked.

I rolled my eyes. Of course he was here. I couldn't stand them breathing on my neck constantly. It's getting annoying.

I need space to think. I need to be alone so I can settle my thoughts. The trauma I went through is turning me into a rebellious person.

It's turning me into someone I'm not. The guilt of killing someone was eating me up. I was going insane. My head was so clouded.

My hands were trembling. That as the effect of the nightmares I had very night since I had been found on the street.

I wanted to get away from everything. Just for a while. I wanted to go somewhere that no noe knew me. So that I could clear my head and find a way to deal with my guilt.

But I knew Jake wouldn't let me. But there as one person who would always help me rebel against him.

His mother:Aunt Clary. So I turned off the shower and dried myself with a towel.

I left my damp hair in a messy bun. I grabbed a green dress, sandals and a blue jacket. Jake wasn't around so I took it as an opportunity.

I locked my door as I grabbed my suitcase and began packing. I was probably going to be gone for a few months. It took a while but I didn't care.

I had already slept and after that nightmare, I wasn't going to sleep again for a while. As I picked another dress, a paper fell out of it and unto the floor.

I picked it and turned it around. It was the picture that Jake and I had taken when we I got drunk for the first time.

I was wearing the skimpy dress he had chosen for me and a pair of pumps. Jake as usual looked like your typical bad boy but also a golden boy.

Wanna know why? In the picture he had wrapped his arm around my waist and was kissing my cheek as I blushed furiously.

My heart clenched at the resurfacing memories but I pushed them down. I decided not to take it with me. I didn't want to remember when I left.

I just want to go and be a different person. I wanna try in order to know who I am. Because I seem to have forgotten.

I grabbed the sketchbook and place it in the bag be fore zipping it up. I his it at the back of the wardrobe before heading of to Bella's room.

My princess was asleep. I felt so bad. I had been neglecting her. But not anymore. For this short trip she would come first.

I tried not to make noise as I packed her bags. I could hear Jake and Amelia talking downstairs. I quickly ran out of the room and his her bags right next to mine.

I checked the time on my alarm clock. I seriously needed to get a new phone. It was 8:00pm. By now I hope that she wouldn't be asleep.

I closed my eyes and imagined the majestic gates of the palace. I cast the spell and soon I stood right before them.

There was no one around so I teleported into the living room. I tried to sniff out her scent but I had forgotten what she smelt like.

I walked around until I bumped into someone. Strong's arms wrapped around me before steadying me and pulling away.

It was the king. I was about to apologize but he raised Hus hand to stop me. "Good evening your- sorry, Uncle Luke." I greeted.

He was about to respond when his wife beat him to it. "Tara, I missed you so much. So what did my idiot of a son do?" She asked.

I smiled at get and it as a real one. She looked do happy and warm. I wish my mom was still here.

"Well, I'll leave you two to it. Honey, I'll be in the study if you need me. See you soon Tara." He said and pecked her cheek before leaving.

Aunt Clary led me to the living room and I told her everything. Not about the Masked Monster but the fact that I had gone through a lot.

She smiled and told me she was going to help. "I just need you to be here by 6:00am tomorrow. And don't worry, I won't tell anyone.

I sincerely hope that you find what you're looking for. And please don't be hard on Jake. He loves you so much that he's being overprotective." She said.

"You're wrong. He doesn't love me and he never will. He says we're incompatible and that he doesn't do love." I answered.

She just smiled in response and turned to walk away. I huffed as she chuckled and teleported back to my room once I had focused hard enough.

I was also getting tired of having to focus every time I cast a spell. If I don't and my powers get out of control, I could destroy half the earth.

I have so much power but I haven't tapped into it. From a young age, I was brainwashed to believe that if I lost control I would hurt people.

I didn't believe them then, but after burning down the school and injuring people, I began to focus on keeping my magic in confinement.

I lay on the bed and stared at the ceiling. There was no way I could sleep after that horrible nightmare.

I lay on the bed and thought of where I wanted to go. It didn't really matter as long as it was far away from here.

But I was going to miss them all. Yes, I really was. Some of the best memories I have here were from them.

When I was with them, I hadn't really missed my parents all that much. But right now it feels so dead and empty.

It's all His fault. Before this my life was slowly getting better. But he had to ruin it. I heard the birds chirping so I turned to the clock and saw that it was 5:45 am.

Well there's nothing wrong with being early. I ran to Bella's room and woke her up. She sat up slowly and rubber her eyes with her fists.

She liked so adorable. "Mommy? What's wrong?" She asked. "We're going on a trip honey. Come on let's go." I said softly as I carried her into my arms.

She wrapped her arms and legs around me as she slept on my shoulder. I'm over to my room quietly. I wonder where Jake is?

So shortly with suitcases in one hand and Bella around me, I closed my eyes and focused. I let only a bit of power flow as I caged the rest.

Soon I stood in the living room of the palace. How come the guard haven't seen me? Wow, the witches would kill the vampires if they knew it was this easy to get into the castle.

But it wasn't. Because they weren't even allowed in the kingdom in the first place.

I put the suitcases down and looked for the study. When I reached the majestic brown wooden door, I opened without knocking.

That was something I regretted. Because I saw something I shouldn't have seen. "Eeeeew!!" I screamed in disgust.

The couple quickly broke away as Uncle Luke glared at me and his wife blushed furiously. "My eyes. I can't see. I'm blind!" I yelled dramatically.

"Oh, hush. You and Jake have done far worse." She defended. I couldn't say anything. My cheeks were too heated.

"Honey, are you sure you want to go?" She asked as she came over to hug me but I hissed at her.

"I'm sorry it's just I don't like bring touched. Not anymore." I told her honestly. "I don't care. I'm your mom since you'll marry my son very soon. I wanna hug my baby." She replied.

She came and wrapped her hands around me. It felt so good. But it wasn't like Jake's hugs. I missed him and I didn't want to.

I began crying blood but mom didn't seem to care. She hugged me tighter. I cried about how messes up my life was. I was so fed up.

After a while I calmed down. "Okay, honey. It's time to go are you sure you don't want to tell Jake?" She asked.

"I'll tell him when I get on the plane so that he can't stop me. Where am I going anyway?" I asked.

"You'll know when you get there." She said kindly. She Lee me outside to the black limo. She kept reminding me to call twice a day and I promised.

Just as the car drove outside, I saw Jake's car drive in. Then it stopped as he reversed he car. He knew it was me. He had smelt me.

Where the hell are you you going?

I'm leaving town for a few days.

No! You're not. What if something happens to you? I can't lose you again.

Look, I went through a lot and I need time. Besides its my life
I cab do whatever the hell I want with it.

With that I cut off the link. "Can you please drive faster?" I asked. Bella was asleep in my lap. When we got to the airport I all but ran inside.

But Jake followed the driver and I. The driver took my luggage and branched after I was giving directions to the plane I would be taking.

Mom, had really done everything. Just as I as about to go through the vault, a hand wrapped around me and pulled me into a warm chest.

Sparks erupted everywhere and I shuddered. He breathed down my neck even though he had no need for oxygen. "I'm not letting you go."he said.

" I have to go Jake! I'll be back but I need time to think. To put my life in order. To find happiness. " I explained as I turned around to face him.

I ignored how drool worthy he looked. "You don't have to go. You can find happiness here. You have us all together." He said.

"I'm not happy. How can I be happy when I have nightmares every night. I went through a lot and I did things I shouldn't have.

The guilt is eating me up and I'm pushing people away. I'm going insane in my mind and I'm adducted to drugs and alcohol.

You're all constantly watching me like I'm a criminal. I need space and you won't give it to me. So I'm taking it myself. I'm not leaving forever.

I'll be back but I need this. I need space and time to think. Please understand." I begged Jake. Bella got up and began reaching for Jake.

He hugged her and put her down after a while. Then he grabbed my waist and kissed me.

I felt the tingles erupt as I kissed him back. I felt so warm and high. It was better than drugs or alcohol. I wrapped my hands around him and tugged on his hair.

He groaned in my mouth. Then he pulled away. He stared me in the eyes.

"When you come back, everything will change. Until then stay away from any males. You're mine and only mine." He said possessively.

I was so confused. But before I could ask him anything, he had pecked my forehead and disappeared.

I picked up my baby and walked to the plane. I put on Bella's seatbelt before putting on mine when we sat down.

I loved the thought of being his. So just before the plane took of I mind linked him before blocking it until I would return.

You're right. I'm yours and yours only.
