Flash back (night before Sophie was kidnapped.)

Ethan came back home, had his dinner. He was too tired today, looking after Calla the whole day was tiring. He didn't touch his work. He went straight to bed to get some sleep. He was a vampire but using spells to keep Calla safe takes a lot of his energy. He laid on the bed and thought about Calla. He could still sense the sweet berries scent of her body. Berries are something he couldn't avoid. He loves all kinds of berries. He closed his eyes, it didn't take him long, he fell asleep.

Ethan was sitting on a huge rock in a dark forest. He looked around, he was all alone. Then a familiar scent hit his nostrils and he knelt down on the ground. He bowed his head down in respect and smiled when the scent got stronger. It was his sire, his mentor and for him, his father figure. It was his Master Dalton, it had been a while since he saw him last. Ethan wondered what brought his sire to him. Dalton patted Ethan's back and spoke. "It's been a long time since we last talked. It's always good to see you my boy." Ethan stood up and looked at his sire. Dalton pulled him in a fatherly hug and patted his back.

Dalton had his own kids but none of them stayed by his side like Ethan. Ethan wasn't his blood, but he loved Ethan more than his own flesh and blood. Ethan stayed loyal and faithful to him till he took his last breath. Dalton broke the hug and asked Ethan, "How are you my boy?"

Ethan replied, "I am a good master. What brought you here?"

Dalton sighed and spoke again. "I gave you too much, didn't I?"
