I held onto Adam tightly as he sprinted through the forest. I closed my eyes, not wanting to relive every memory of that place and just enjoy being with Adam again but it was hard. It was hard when every thought was about your nightmares. It caused me to hold onto Adam tighter and wish he was also holding me instead of racing through the forest.

I wanted to be alone with him and only him for awhile. I couldn't face my family, not yet. I couldn't let them see what I was now. I don't want to break down in front of them. I wanted to be stronger when I go back.

I also was becoming dizzy from all the trees zooming by. That was another reason why I closed my eyes. Next thing I knew, we were in front of the tree house and I got off of Adam so he could change back into a human. He did just that and I glanced away, not wanting to look at him.

I didn't care when I changed in front of him earlier. The main reason was because it was Adam and I knew he would not try anything with me. Besides, I had almost nothing on to begin with so there was nothing to hide. I trusted Adam more than anything or anyone else. Even though he kidnapped me at first, I know he cares for me. I also love him and my feelings were never going to change.

I held onto his hand when the stairs came out after he sprinkled a little dust. I had no idea what it was nor did I care. I did not know he was part witch. I held it tightly when we started ascending the staircase, staying close to him. Now that I was back, I was never letting him go.

I did let him go though when we reached the top of the stairs and had to crawl through the little door to get into house. He had me go first and then he crawled up behind me. I grabbed onto his hand again. I felt safe in his arms and I did not want to lose that feeling after going so long without it.

He didn't pause though when I grabbed his hand, instead he scooped me up in his arms again. I leaned my head on his shoulder and wrapped my arms around his neck. He then walked out of the first building, across the bridge, and over to the second building. He opened the door carefully while I was in his arms so I didn't drop. He was carrying me bridal style.

He shut the door behind him and I closed my eyes, letting myself relax in his arms. I haven't been able to do that in a very long time. I felt him sit down. When I cracked my eyes open, I saw we were in the bedroom. I closed my eyes again and he rocked me back and forth while I sat on his lap.

How was I ever going to get through this? I felt helpless without him and I don't want to feel like that. The horrors of my experience always came to my mind like I was reliving it. His touch calmed me down much so I didn't really think about it anymore. I wished I never went though it or ignore Adam for a couple days.

I started shaking in his arms when something crept through my mind. It was one of the tortures he had gave. My body convulsed like I was reliving it and Adam's touch didn't even help this time. I started crying. Even here in Adam's arms I wasn't safe. He still got to me.

"Mia!" Adam cried as he grabbed onto me and hugged me tightly to his chest, slowing my movements until they were nothing. "You're okay. You're here with me. He can't get to you now."

My body moved until it didn't anymore from more reassuring words from him. I cried into his chest as he rocked me back and forth. One thought plagued my mind.

"He lied to you. He wasn't going to take my virginity. He was, but not until after."

I felt Adam move his head and he looked down on at me. I imagined the confusion and anger on his face. "Not until after what?"

"Not until he killed me in front of you and changed me into a vampire."
