Callista sniffled and wrapped her arms around his neck, burying her face in his mane. You would leave me? Is that really what's best?

I didn't know what else to do, he whispered quietly in their minds.

Would you think to do the same thing again?

I think I would do anything if it meant keeping you safe...

Callista pulled away again, drawing her knees up into her chest and wrapping her arms around them. You said you were not worthy, but your actions and words are exactly what any lifemate would do. Don't ever do that to me again. I don't know if I can handle going through this again.

"I'm sorry," he said withdrawing to give her the space she seemed to need. "I never meant to cause you pain..."

"I know...you would never hurt me." She reached a hoof out to him, "But you if you die, part of me goes with you. I'll ask for a hunter to track her and kill her. Then we won't have to worry."

"If I'm not Carpathian, maybe things work differently..." he suggested weakly.

Callista shook her head. "No. Lifemates are one soul in two bodies. I've met you, spent a lot of time with you. I would never be the same after you died, I would never want another to be with. You are not Carpathian yet, but I would hope for you to join me as one one day. Then we can be as we were meant to."

"But how can you be certain..." he asked quietly even though he felt the same connection and knew it grew stronger every day.

"It's harder because I don't have the same signs as the males do..." She blushed and looked up at him shyly. "My body recognized you before I did. When you held me, that one time in the woods, it felt so right. It's always felt right to be with you Valzar."

He sighed and took her hoof in his, "But...I don't know how to do this...how to be a lifemate..." He shook his head, "It's so confusing to have two conflicting instincts..."

"I think you're doing a wonderful, even if your Drow instincts are fighting with your Carpathian ones." She squeezed his hoof gently. "You even gave me an order."

"You gave me an order. Actually, you gave me several. You first demanded to know what I was doing, then told me to leave. I of course told you no and saved your hind end. But the biggest order was you telling me to cover my eyes."
