"I promise I'll be here with you the whole time. Nothing bad will happen." She kissed his cheek and found the mental path her family used. Mom? Are you busy right now?

Valzar nodded grimly.

Everything is fine Mom. Could you and Daddy stop by for a little bit? I have some exciting news for both of you! Callista reached over clutched his hoof.

The brief flashes from her daughters mind was more than enough for Aria, We'll be right there! "Gregori, come on!" she nudged her lifemate almost bouncing with excitement. "We must see Callista!"

Gregori was instantly alert, "Is she safe? Did she get hurt? Should we call in another hunter?" He was pulling on Aria now, hurrying to take down the safeguards at the entrance to their home.
"They'll be here in a little bit. Don't worry, you'll be fine. Don't let him scare you."

"Stop," Aria tugged on his hoof to halt him. "She is perfectly fine. Her lifemate's with her..."
"It's not him I worry about..."

Callista smiled, "Mother's really nice, she couldn't hurt anyone. She even matches people up because she likes to."
Gregori halted and stood stone still. "Callista does not have a lifemate...she is not safe with this male. We must hurry."

"Somewhere, yes. But why wouldn't she tell us about finding a lifemate. And why would this male not come to me to formally take her into his care and out of mine? I do not like this."

"Oh yeah...because the last lifemate for one of our daughters came and formally asked..." she rolled her eyes. "Gregori, did you even think of asking my father anything when you met me?"

"And I would hope a lifemate of our daughter would love her just as much as you love me. Wouldn't you agree?"
