"Callista, please..." he was filled with terror at the thought of her dying. Along with that was guilt...if she died it would be his fault for not being strong enough to convert to her kind.

Callista reached out and caressed his cheek. "It's alright Valzar. I've known what would happen for a while now. I've had plenty of time to accept it."

"But I can not," he said wrapping his hoof around hers.

"No," he said more firmly. "I will never accept it. Callista, do not give up your life...not for me."

"I'm not giving it up. I'm choosing to be happy. You want me to be happy, don't you?"

"The idea of you dying frightens me beyond words," he whispered to her.

Callista smiled softly, "But I'm not dying until you're already dead. There's no use for me to be alive if you aren't. Would you be able to live without me?"

"It's the same for me, Valzar. When you're not with me, it's like I'm already dead. The only thing that keeps me going is knowing that I'll get to see you...and the only way for me to see you after you die is for me to die also."

"Callista..." he whispered her name but knew she was right. He couldn't live without her and it would be unfair for him to ask that of her. But still, the simple thought of Callista dying terrified him like nothing else. He wanted to do everything he could to protect her, keep her safe...

"Come to me," he said shifting so that she rested in his arms. "I need you close right now."
