  I step towards him and cup his check ‘’nothing you could show me would ever make me love you any less and trust me I don’t scare easily’’. I say with a smile.

  ‘’Isabel’’ my mum says, I turn towards her ‘’we need to talk about all of this, the things you have said it is obvious someone has been hurting you for a long time and you never came to us’’. My mum and dad stand together holding each other as they look at me ‘’ we want to know what’s going on right now, no more keeping us in the dark we have a right to know, you’re our daughter it’s our job to protect you’’.

  As I look at them I know I’m about to either hurt them so much or make them hate me but I have no choice, I step towards them. ‘’you cannot protect me in this, I’m sorry but you will never know what has happened to me if I have my way. This is one battle you cannot win, only I can fight this I’m sorry’’.

  They both look so shocked I would normally have laughed if the situation wasn’t so bad and confusing.

  ‘’tell us right now young lady’’ my dad says to me walking forward, automatically making my body tense I start to feel so threatened I feel my powers rising wanting to stop the threat I feel even though I know he would never hurt me. ‘’I want answers now’’ my dad shouts.

  ‘’stop’’ I scream ‘’you have no idea what I can do’’ I say my eyes going darker with my power, but this time it feels wrong, it feels dark and evil. ‘’this is for your own good you have no idea of the evil in this world; you say it’s your job to protect me but you can’t what I have to face no one can. I’m not even sure I have the strength to stop it, all I know is that this will keep you safe, hate me if you want I don’t care as long as you live’’. I scream at them, my power starts to rise in me so fast I know I need to get away from them quickly. I head towards the backdoor ‘’don’t try to stop me, I’m sorry you don’t understand and you don’t like what you have heard but something tells me there is worse to come and until I have the answers and my memories I think it’s best I stay with john, I’m sorry it just needs to be this way.’’ I turn quickly and run out of the door my dad’s screams echoing round me demanding me to come back. As I run through the forest at the back of my house I feel a calm flowing through my body, my power calming down until all I feel is peace for the first time since I came back home, I can hear john behind me, I run until I get to the meadow, I gratefully sit on the soft warm grass, running my hands through it. I hear john sit down next to me.

  ‘’you ok’’ he asks while twirling my hair through his fingers.

  ‘’yeah’’ I say with a sarcastic laugh ‘’my parents probable hate me now but there is nothing I can do about that’’

  ‘’are you up to hearing my secret now’’ he says quietly

  ‘’what’s this about a secret’’ I ask turning to face ‘’I thought we never kept secrets’’ I say with a smile

  He laughs at that ‘’well it seems I’m not the only one keeping secrets’’ he takes a deep breath ‘’ok here goes, I’m a shifter Isabel, which means that I can turn into a wolf whenever I want, I have enormous amount of strength, speed and I can also heal very fast. My wolf is a part of me so much that we can communicate with each other through my mind, when I’m in my human form he can talk with me and the same when I’m a wolf. Also the reason I say I can protect you is because when you’re a shifter, there Is one mate, your soul mate if you will, that you have to find because he or she is the only one that can complete you and the same for your mate. That’s you Isabel your my mate and trust me when I say my wolf just wants to just take you away from all of this and protect you, he is actually getting very impatient with everything, I scared your dad back at the house my wolf was rising up in me when we heard just a fraction of what you have faced. So that’s it sweetheart my secret. He looks at me so seriously, he also looks so scared of my reaction, and I just can’t believe it I mean shifters they don’t exist do them.

  ‘’are you being serious’’ I ask not truly believing it.

  ‘’I thought that might have been your reaction, look if you promise it won’t scare you I can transform now, show you I’m telling the truth.

  ‘’ok then show me’’ I say pulling my knees to my chest, when all of a sudden he starts to strip his clothes off ‘’HEY what are you doing were in the middle of a meadow’’ I screech out

  John laughs at my reaction ‘’ sweetheart I’m transforming into my wolf my clothes will get ripped off, then how will we get back to my house’’ he says still laughing at me.

  ‘’oh well fine carry on’’ I mutter

  John takes all his clothes off, my stomach starts to tighten as I look at his body, toned in all the right places, and my boyfriend really is fit. He looks back and smile’s at me, his eyes start to change Turing a yellow colour then in like a flash his body just morph’s into a wolf, I gasp at what I have just seen, he really has turned into a wolf and a beautiful one at that. He looks like a very big husky dog white and black patches all over his fur, he is huge in his wolf form he is way bigger than me, he is almost as big as an elephant I slowly crawl towards him, he lowers his head slightly and whimpers, I’m taking that to mean it’s ok for me to go close him, I go right up to the wolf’s face and I see john’s bright blue eyes shining through, I smile at him, he must have done it so I would recognise his eyes, I slowly stroke his head working my fingers through his fur. I’m so fascinated by it, who would have thought shifters exist mind you what I can do shouldn’t exist. I smile at him and slowly watch him transform back into john, I laugh and hug him tight.

  ‘’that’s amazing’’ I say laughing ‘’who would have thought’’

  He laughs to ‘’ok love just let me get dressed and we can talk. Oh by the way because you know my secret now, we will soon be able to hear each other’s thoughts and communicate with our minds to each other’’.

  ‘’seriously why’’ I ask half afraid of what he will hear and half loving the fact I will be so close to him.

  ‘’your my mate sweetheart I told you this’’

  ‘’oh right, yeah I forgot, it’s a lot to process’’ I mutter

  ‘’are you not happy to be my mate’’ john asks as he turns round now that he has his clothes on

  ‘’of course I want to be with you forever, it’s just that my life isn’t exactly safe’’

  ‘’neither is mine can you imagine what people would do if they found out we excited, and besides the only reason we do exist is to fight evil Isabel. For generation my kind have fought supernatural forces that mean to harm this world you would be surprised at the stories my dad tells of what he has had to fight off as well as the older wolf’s and family stories’’

  ‘’wait does this mean your whole family are wolves’’ I ask shocked

  ‘’of course love there my family, my wolf and them have wanted me to tell you for a while, but I wanted to wait. I didn’t know about what was going on with you if I had even a clue you were in danger I would have told you and protected you’’

  ‘’this is my point john I’m not even sure you could protect me, from what I remember about my world it’s full of evil power, not that I’m evil just the people that I have fought.’’

  ‘’ok you know my secret now Isabel’’. He says as he walks towards me he touches my cheek lifting my face to look him in the eyes. ‘’ and I can protect you the reason we are such a powerful force of good against evil is because we are dam hard to kill, please tell me let me help. It’s not just me that will help you we have a whole pack that would lay their life down for you, my dad is the alpha of the whole pack the only reason we moved here was because I sensed you my mate was here and I had to find you, that’s means I’m the next in line to rule our pack, with you by my side you are very important to my people, they would never let anything happen to you. Please trust me.’’

  ‘’ok you want to know what I can do; I’ll show you just don’t be scared.’’ I ask with a smile.

  John lau
gh’s ‘’I promise’’

  ‘’ok stand back I’m going to focus my power, ohhh and by the way do not make fun of the dress’’.

  ‘’what dress’’ john asks confused

  I laugh ‘’the one that is about to appear on my body it happens when I want to use my power’’.

  ‘’what power’’

  I laugh again so hard my sides start to hurt ‘’just watch’’

  I move back just a little bit from john and close my eyes, I feel my power starting to rise through my body, I open my eyes and start to smile, my body starts to glow brightly, john’s mouth is just hanging open in shock, I let my power swirl all around me letting it fill me up, I feel my body rising above the ground, I hold my arms out wide as I glow as bright as a star. I start to let my power settle and I slowly lower to the ground, as the glow slowly fades I’ve transformed into my beautiful white grown and a tiara on my head. I laugh at johns shocked expression I twirl in a circle.

  ‘’what do you think’’ I say with a laugh

  ‘’th-th-th that was amazing how did you do that’’.

  I step towards him ‘’I’m not sure I didn’t tell you off my good dream I have but Cory explained a lot to me and….’’

  Wait whose Cory’’ john asks looking jealous

  I laugh ‘’ seriously john Cory is like ten, any way he explained to me in the dream that I’m pure good, he said that he knew my memories had been erased, because only pure good’s whose memories had been erased appeared in the dream world of other pure goods. He explained I had power, and trust me at first I did not take him seriously, but he showed me how to tap into my powers and it was amazing. Everyone was just like me; they all sort of glowed as well. They showed me different powers and asked me to try them there is air, fire, water, electricity, moving objects, projecting shields and also a soul one and they are just the ones I know about. I can’t really explain the soul one. It’s almost like you focus all of your power and soul into it and just let it explode out of your body, it has bad effects though once you do it your completely exhausted and I guess you can’t fight any more until you have rested, and if you’re in a battle you can’t really rest so I think they use it as a last resort. I seemed to shock everyone though because I could do them all I don’t think your meant to be able to do it, Cory just kept saying I was special and I needed to be with them, but I don’t think I can be because of what has happened to me.’’ I smile at john ‘’ so do you want to see one of my powers’’.

  ‘’ok go for it I want to see if you really are as powerful as you say, I’m still convinced I have to protect you and that you can’t do this alone’’.

  ‘’ok it’s time for you to see’’ I raise my arms level with me waist closing my eyes and focusing on my power, I feel the electricity rising through my body, flowing down my arms I open my eyes and focus the power into my hands, moulding it onto a ball between my hands watching it grow bigger and brighter I fling my arms out and my energy balls flies towards the tree’s and explodes with a massive blast.

  ‘’opppps it wasn’t meant to be that powerful’’ I say with a laugh ‘’ I forgot I wasn’t in the dream land there are shields there to make sure no one gets hurt or that your power doesn’t cause so much damage.’’ I say with a guilty smile, I turn to john who looks like he’s going to pass out, I rush towards him ‘’ are you ok john’’ I ask toughing his face.

  ‘I-I-I I’m just in shock, Isabel you really are powerful, I have never felt power that strong before, I can’t believe I never sensed this from you, your my mate how could I not know.’’

  ‘’because I wouldn’t let you john, you seem to have forgotten I have the power to shield as well, and I use it well I couldn’t risk anyone finding out what I am and what I can do. I needed to protect them from this part of my life there normal, well not all of you. Or at least this is what I’m assuming I did seeming as you can now sense my power. I just feel like I have protected all the people I love from a great evil. I just can’t remember so I hope I’m not crazy and imagining all of this. I only have my dreams and feeling to go by’’ I say with a smile

  ‘’ok but now you need to tell me all you know about this Dmitri’’ john watches as Isabel suddenly shuts down, not even looking at him.

  He watches as Isabel backs away from him he starts to get mad ‘’ Isabel, I promise you nothing you tell me could ever make me hate you or think of you any differently, just please tell me your my mate, I have told you the biggest secret of my life, just please trust me with yours.’’ He pleads looking into her face, looking for a sign that I will finally tell him everything.

  ‘’john it’s not that it’s just that from what I have remembered and seen, I don’t want to tell you because it will break your heart and you will hate me, I just know it because I hate myself for what I have allowed to happen.’’

  John walks towards Isabel and takes her hand into his ‘’ I will never hate you, I love you too much just tell me and we will go from there ok, I will sit and listen to everything you have to say. Then we will work out a plan to help you.’’ He walks back a few feet and sits on the ground ‘’just tell me what you remember ok’’.

  ‘’you don’t know what you’re asking, but I will tell you, you deserve to know, that night when I woke up screaming I wouldn’t tell you what I saw, but now I will. I was at the white kingdom the one I have told you about with people like me. There was so much laughter and well light, I knew just by looking at them they were the purest of good, I couldn’t even sense any evil on them. All of a sudden destruction fell onto them, people who had darkness surrounding them, were attacking the people even killing children, I was so afraid but they didn’t attack me even though I knew by instinct that they had attacked me before, but now for some reason they seemed to almost bow to me, everyone was dying around me but I couldn’t help them and that’s when I saw Dmitri, he was shocked to see me I felt such evil from him that I backed away from him. He laughed at me and said he was impressed, he told me I had somehow tapped into my powers subconsciously and what I was seeing was a possible future if all went according to his plan. All these people all around me lying lifeless on the ground there was so much blood, I was crying so much swearing to myself I would save them, but all Dmitri did was laugh at me saying I couldn’t help them. I swore to him I would never help him to do this to the people but he said I have no choice because…’’ I looked down unable to look at him anymore this would destroy us and I knew it would. I could feel my powers swirling round me responding to my heart breaking, an image forms in my mind of the cliffs deep in the forest with a waterfall all I want with all my might is to vanish to that place and not have to see johns heart break.

  ‘’because of what Isabelle’’ he demands

  ‘’I-I-I please don’t make me tell you it would destroy us’’

  ‘’Isabel I promise it won’t just tell me’’

  My powers filled my whole body I could feel myself glowing with the strength of it I rise of the floor slowly knowing my powers are answering my call and transporting me to the cliffs even though I had no idea I could do this. It’s like my powers know by instinct of what to do when I want to do something bad enough.

  ‘’forgive me john I wasn’t strong enough to fight them, I failed I’m so sorry’’ I say as I break down, tears flowing down my face as my heart breaks.

  ‘’sweetheart stop using your powers, just tell me I promise it won’t change how I feel about you, Isabel STOP’’ he screams at me.

  My powers explode all around me as I started to fade with a whisper I give him his answer

  ‘’I’m his wife’’

  With an explosion of white light I vanish.
