A/N: Hi everybuddi :)

This is a sequel to The Dream.

I'm going to be giving into more detail then The Dream.

This story isn't continued after The Dream, it's before it. But I still am going to add The Dream into it.

Unfortunately I have absolutely no idea on where in the series my story is going to be set. Its definitely after Kalona gets released by Neferet. So I'm just going to wing it :)

But the whole gang is at the House of Night and Neferet and Kalona are still there. Everyone except Heath.

Hope everyone likes it

Enjoy :D

Saving my fallen angel

Chapter 1

Zoey's POV

I felt Nala stir next to my head. I sighed.

Even though I loved her to death, I really was considering on buying her her own bed so she wouldn't bug me when I desperately needed sleep. But how could I? I couldn't just band her from my bed. And anyway, what's the use? She'd just crawl but into my bed anyway. Or go to Stevie-Rae.

But as per usual, when she woke me up there was absolutely no chance on getting back to sleep.

"Thanks, Nala," I mumbled, and then heaved myself out of bed.

I looked down at my clothes and decided that I should change. After all I was in my pajamas.

I changed into my favorite slightly faded jeans and put on my black tank top. Since it was morning (well morning in human time) I decided there wasn't any point bring a jumper because it was sunny.

I walked down the hallway without running into anyone, thankfully. I wasn't in any mood to talk with anyone.

I just wanted some peace and quiet before I met up with my friends at breakfast, which was in two hours.

I left the building quickly and jogged to my favorite place. It wasn't too far from the dorm building, but by the time I got there I was puffed out.

I looked up with wonder as I saw Nyx's statue staring down at me.

Yeah, my favorite spot in this place is a huge fountain with Nyx sparkling in the middle off it.

I sat on the edge and swirled my fingers in the water.

I was completely content.

This was where I meditated. Well, I didn't exactly go ummmmmm.

I heard the sound of wings rustling behind me. I didn't have to turn around to know who it was.

It was either a raven mocker or Kalona.

I desperately wished it was just a raven mocker. I didn't particularly feel like getting aggravated because of explaining to Kalona that I wasn't A-ya. Well, I technically am her apparently, but I wasn't going to admit that to him.

When I didn't bother turning around, he moved in front of me. His black wing brushed my shoulder ever so softly.

I stiffened. I, unwillingly, shivered at his touch.

He sat down slightly and turned his body towards me.

I refused to look at him. No way was he going to charm me that easily.

But then again, I did shiver right? Damn. One point to him.

"You know, I must say this is a amazing place for relaxing. I've seen you come here before," he said.

I accidentally looked up. "You spy on me?" I exclaimed, outraged.

As soon as the words were out I shut my mouth. I couldn't believe I said that. Ofcourse he spied on me! He's like my personal stalker. Yeesh.

He smiled innocently. "Ofcourse."

Ofcourse.

I shook my head and rolled my eyes at him.

He shrugged which made him look very cute. Almost like an adorable puppy.

"I have nothing to do any more. I find you very fascinating, A-ya," he said as a matter of fact.

My head shot up.

"What do you mean you have nothing to do any more?"

Aside from making my life difficult, I'd all thought that he was a very busy man.

It was his turn to look away. His eyes seemed distant as he looked at the flowing water in the fountain.

"It's not really that case. I meant that I don't know what to do any more," he hesitated before continuing. "I fell. I'm a fallen angel who wants to bring back the past. I want to rule. I want to be a …success. But I can't be," he looked back at me; all humor was erased from his face.

The way he spoke scared me.

This is Kalona we're talking about!

Since when did he start being so dull?

I shook my head in confusion. "Why can't you achieve being a success?"

He looked at me for a long time. His eyes were calculating. Watching me very closely.

I couldn't look away. It was like my brain wasn't functioning properly, telling my eyes not to look away from his.

But the question was: do I want to look away?

In front of me was an evil person who is capable of hurting anyone except me. Well not physically anyway.

He opened his mouth, then gave up and closed it again.

Instead of answering, he, very slowly, took my hand into both of his.

I gasped softly at his gentle touch. His hand was cold and hard yet soft. His gaze was gently focusing on my hand.

He started to stroke my hand slowly, barely touching my skin.

He sighed.

"You are the only thing that's standing in my way."

I frowned. "Meaning?"

He looked up but never ceased in stroking my hand.

"I'm different with you then when I'm with Neferet. W hen I'm with her, it's like I'm a hundred per cent evil. It's so different then how I act if I'm with you. I assume you'd say I have two personalities," he explained slowly.

I hesitated. "And how do you feel when you're with…me?"

"I feel like my old self," he admitted.

I leaned a little closer to him. His scent engulfed me making me want to lean in more, but I stayed where I was.

"Which is?"

He sighed again.

"I used to be good," his voice was strained when he said good.

I grimaced. "You used to be a good warrior."

"Yes. But that is in the past. I am still a warrior but I feel as if I'll never be my real self again," he admitted.

"You seem to have never tried to go back to being yourself. I have to admit, I would probably like you more if you were a good person," I grinned.

He smiled softly. "I'm sure you would."

For a moment we sat there, smiling gently at one another. It was something that I thought wouldn't be possible.

Wait. Are Kalona and I getting along?

Gosh, this day will go down in Vampire history, I thought amusingly.

"Ah, there you are, my love," said a smooth voice.

I didn't have to look up to know who that was.

Good ol' Neferet. I swear she has perfect timing, I thought sarcastically.

"Neferet," Kalona said, surprised.

Now she came into view. He long hair was flying behind her from the wind, and she was wearing the same silky black dress she wears occasionally.

"Morning, Neferet," I said.

Might as well be polite. Until she pees me off. Then I'll act like a bitch.

"Good morning Kalona and Zoey. I'm surprised to see you out so early. Can't sleep?" she asked me.

"Just a bad dream," I lied.

"Really?" Kalona turned towards me. His voice was concerned.

He was playing a dangerous game now that Neferet was here.

"Yeah. I'm actually getting a bit sleepy. Um, I'll see you around," I said to practically no one.

No way was I going to stay and watch them make out.

"Do you want me to walk you back to your dorm?" Kalona offered.

I stood up and brushed the dirt off my jeans.

"I'm sure Zoey can find her own way back," Neferet said.

I smiled at him, purposely making Neferet jealous.

"Sure. Besides, I'm sure Neferet wouldn't mind if I steal you for one moment," I said.

I was walking away before she could say anything back.

I could hear Kalona running up to me.

When we were out of her hearing reach, Kalona sighed.

"Alright, what was that all about?"

I looked up at him innocently.

"What ever do you mean?" I said in a proper voice.

"I mean, you teasing Neferet. Not that I mind. I find it amusing," he chuckled.

I shrugged.

"She's a pain. So why can't I be one back to her?"

By now we stood right at the foot of the entry to the girls dorms.

He snorted.

"I think you annoyed her before you stole me away from her wrath," he chuckled.

I raised an eyebrow. "How?"

"Well, she found you and I alone. Talking. I think that aggravated her a little," he said, amused.

I smirked.

So all I had to do to annoy her was to talk to him. Hmmm…..

My train of thought disappeared when I noticed something.

Kalona's eyes had changed.

Not in colour, or its size. But the emotion.

He was looking at me with an emotion I never saw before from him.

I've seen sadness, anger, adoration and even happiness.

But this was different.

He was looking at me…lovingly.

I blinked a couple of times to register the difference and to check if I was wrong. But I wasn't his eyes did hold love. And it was for me.

For the first time in my life, I didn't know how to feel. I mean, sure it gave me a warm fuzzy feeling towards him, but wasn't he my enemy?

He wasn't my ally that's for sure. Or was he?

Had I just believed he was the enemy because my friends hated him or because he was evil?

I wasn't sure.

I wasn't sure if I should feel happiness or dread the fact that he looked at me like that.

I knew I wasn't angry or sad.

I guess I was, I don't know, curious?

And surprised that he'd even look at me like that.

I always knew he had a thing for me, but not like this.

Never like this.

And just when I thought things couldn't get better, he took a step forward so that our bodies were close but not touching. He, like he did before, gently took my hand in his.

I looked up into his glowing eyes and gulped.

Oh god, here it comes.

He was going to kiss me.

He leant down slowly.

Our lips were a centimeter apart when Aphrodite opened the dorm door.

I froze.

As did Kalona.

Aphrodite, along with my other friends, which were behind her, gasped.

I didn't know what to do. My legs were staking and if I don't sit down soon I have a feeling I would collapse.

So Kalona did the smart thing.

Which earned us another round of gasps.

He leant in towards my ear.

"Goodnight, my lady," he whispered then softly kissed my cheek.

I sucked in a breath and didn't let it out till he stepped away from me. He bowed deeply at me, and then walked down the corridor.

I watched him the whole time.

Only after he was out of the building did my friends come up to me.

"Are you out of your mind?" Aphrodite screeched.

"He kissed you!" Shaunee yelled.

"I can't believe he did that!" Erin screamed.

I didn't listen to them.

All I did was lift my hand and touched where his mouth was just a minute ago.
