She helped Ilian with cleaning house. Later she played with Jenn, made dinner, watched tv together... like family. Real family, that she was always looking for. She felt happy. Evening made her feel uneasy again. Ilian felt it.

When she was washing dishes after supper, phone rang. Ilian took it. He wasn't looking happy.

'But we promised her protection... we can't... ok, I understand.'

He was angry. Very angry.

'Something happened?'

She look into his eyes.

'I must give you back to Papillon.'

It was like death sentence for her. Two days. That's all she had here. She felt here safe, like in real home with love. She was stupid, thinking that they are going to help her and let her stay. It was always like this. Her whole life.

'When?'

'Tomorrow.'

'I will... I'm going to do everything what you want me to do, just please, let me stay...'

Desperation. Fear. End. She felt very desperate. She was ready to do everything what it takes to stay here with him and his daughter. They gave her more happiness in those two days, than she felt in her whole life. He touched her hands and kissed them delicate.

'It won't change anything. Papillon demand his property. Stan tried everything he could, to help you. Sorry.'

She went to bedroom and start crying. She was screaming to the pillow. She didn't want to go back to the castle. Maybe she should escape? She will just be on her way all her life, getting as far away as she can from them. To someone, who will protect her. He hugged her. She hide her face in his chest.

'I'm so sorry, Aura. I'm really sorry. I really wanted for you to stay here. There is nothing more I want. Even if we know each other for only few days...'

She slept near him. He looked in darkness and was trying to figure out what they are going to do to her and why they are so stubborn. Stan did what he could. Maybe he will have something else to bargain tomorrow? He couldn't believe he got so attached to this girl in such short time. Two days and it seems to be few years for him. How is he going to tell about this to Jenn? She never met his girlfriends. Aura even wasn't his girlfriend. She just came to their home and just going to disappear from it like that. He kept her near him. Last night.

Day went by too fast. Jenn felt that something is not right, so she used last hours together as much as she could. They went to ZOO and on ice creams. They even made few pictures together. Maybe they shouldn't? The knew each other so short.

She sat on couch. He is going to give her away. He must. She trembled with fear.

'Ilian is your real name?'

'Why asking? I'm Maximilian. Ilian is shorter. Max... doesn't seems right.'

'You are too gentle for Max.'

He touched her arm delicate. Their eyes met. He kissed her delicate and she gave this kiss back. Phone rang.

'We must go. Papillon... are waiting.'

She wiped her tears. He didn't know what to say to her. There were nothing he could say to make her feel better. They got in car and went to bar.

'Dear God, I'f I... didn't have to give you back... sorry I couldn't protect you enough...'

'Thanks for those couple days. They were... best in my life.'

In front of bar whole pack were waiting. Vampires stood on the other side near their black car. Annabelle, Louise and Sebastien.

'COME HERE!' - Sebastien screamed to her.

She was terriefied.

'Stan, thank you for... for chance...'

'Sorry this have to end this way, honey.'

Sebastien was going in her direction. She hugged Stan fast and went to Ilian. He hugged her and they kissed each other. She didn't care that Sebastien is going to kill her later. She wanted to say goodbye.

Vampire grabbed her hair and throw in their car direction. They had to stop Ilian. She can't cry. Not now. She can't show more tears to Ilian. Sebastien put collar on her neck. She went inside car. Belle and Louise were talking with Stan.

'You... you thought I would let you live with those wolves? That I'm going let you?'

She stayed slinet. Her life end with Ilian's last kiss.

'Belle, Louis... give us a girl. You don't need her.'

'Sebastien bought her.'

'Yes, and I can see that he is respecting his belongings...'

'We have problems but he is our son. He bought her, so she belonged to him.'

'If you ever changed your mind, you know where to find me. I'll give you 3 millions for her.'

They looked surprised at each other.

'You are ready to pay 3 millions? Why?'

'She seems to be nice girl and it's a waste for your son. Think about it.'

They came back to castle. Sebastien already broke her ribs and took blood from her. She couldn't walk from loss of blood. His parents tried to stop him a little bit, but they had no control over him.
