It was early but he was keeping an eye on his mate. He remembered when years ago he kidnapped her from his own family. When he saved her from having to marry his brother. He kept a vigilant watch over her. Watched her grow up into a beautiful young woman. He kept an eye on her but he knew time was running out. He knew that time was running out. He needed to mark her as his now. It was only a matter of time before they found her. Before they tried to take her back to his psychotic and evil older brother. He could not allow that to happen. He could not allow his mate to be taken from him. Even if it meant making his mate hate him at first. It was worth it to protect her in the long run.<br/><br/>This fact... This fact was why he watched her. This fact is why he used the daytime to spy on her. To keep tabs on the young beauty he had feelings for. They weren't strong and were mostly a fierce need to protect her...but they were there. There was feelings he couldn't change or describe. Watching that baby grow up to be the beautiful young woman she was today had been worth kidnapping her from his family. They never knew he had done it either. He stole her away in the daytime. Took her and gave her to an elderly woman who needed a child to continue her family line. Left her to be raised in a town so far out nobody would think to look for her. Until now. They drew ever closer to his mate. He had no more time to play around. He had to do it now. Tonight. Tonight was the night he marked her as his...no matter what it cost him.<br/><br/>His thoughts flashed back to eighteen years ago. When the small baby was first brought into the house.<br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic">~A beautiful young baby was brought in by his elder sister. She held it so delicately. He watched her come to him and hand her over. The very second his eyes connected with those beautiful eyes of the baby he knew it. He knew this young child was his mate. He rocked the baby and soothed her crying. Rocking her in his arms. He walked through the halls carrying his bundled up mate. This small bundle of joy brought a smile to his lips that he had not had in many, many years. He held the baby close. "You will be a beautiful young woman sweet angel." He whispered to her. As he passed by a room to take the baby to the crib.<br/><br/><span style="font-weight: bold">"We will raise the child to marry our eldest son Vincent. She will be his wife whether she wants to or not. There is nothing that can change this. The child will be groomed to be the perfect wife. This is my decree. Only one thing could change this and it is unlikely to happen. End of meeting. Dismissed now get the hell out of my office." Came the growl of his father to his men.</span> He hurried along and took the baby to her crib. He laid her in it. "I can not let them take you from me. That would kill me sweet Christy. I will deal with this. Tomorrow morning...I shall sweep you away and hide you where they will never think to look."<br/><br/>He waited until dawn broke and the sun was rising over the hills. He waited until the vampires all went to sleep. He left his bed and slipped through the halls silent as death. He would save her. He held a locket in his hand. He slipped into her room and slipped the locket onto her wrist. It would be big but it was a symbol of his protection and good intentions towards her. You could almost say it resembled a token of love. (see image at end) He then scooped her up and covered her in a blanket. Leaving her room to breath. Slipping out of the castle, hidden by a cloak, and ran off into the countryside. He ran far, far, far away from where he lived. Taking her to a small hut in the middle of nowhere. A small town and found the one person who needed her.<br/><br/>Knocking on the door and waited for the couple to answer. Changing his voice to sound like frantic father. His voice deep and filled with fear "Please...please. I can not take care of her any longer. Please take care of my baby. Please raise her as your own. I am in danger and fear for her life. Take her and never tell her that she is not yours. I won't be able to return but I heard the people in this town are a great group of people. I know she will be safe and happy here. Her name is Christy. Give her your last name." When the woman took the baby he hurried off into the afternoon sun. Not giving the woman a chance to get his name or anything else. He vanished into the afternoon sun. Slipping back home with only one final glance over his shoulder to where his mate lay in the arms of an older woman. "Grow up well my mate...I shall always be keeping an eye on you." With that he was gone.~</span><br/><br/><a class="postlink" href="http://i833.photobucket.com/albums/zz260/TimeKeys/Jewelry/6ce3dab6-7b2d-449b-b2fe-b63d99157d62_zpsc99e31c9.jpg">[ img ]</a><br/><br/>Rodriguez shook his head to clear his thoughts. He had watched her ever since but tonight he marked her as his. He could wait no longer. He would give her the mark of the mate. His happened to be a weird symbol. He watched her get to her truck and climb in. He vanished into the trees and headed towards her house. Going at a slow pace so she would get there before him. Watching her truck through the treelines. He would make sure she could never be taken from him. He would make sure his mate never ended up his brother's bride. They couldn't take her from him if she was marked as his. He had to do it. He had to do it tonight. He walked through the trees silently. He would wait patiently for the right moment. The time was now. There was no more time for delaying.
