Chapter 1

*This takes place little after Skye broke up with Jack at the Perry apartment.

SKYE'S POV

It's been two month's since I broke up with him. I've been trying to avoid him. At school I take the back stairs, at home I lock myself in my room or go out with Bliss and Ollie. I can't stand all the craziness of Mimi's bonding plans with Jack.

********

Two weeks ago during one of the Force's family dinners. Mimi announced that her and Jack will be getting bonded in about six months. Trinity and Charles cheered to the couple. I just looked at Jack…in about six months he'll be bonded to Mimi, his twin. And forget about me, all those precious moments we spend together.

I couldn't swallow. I felt like a fist was squeezing my heart and longs.

********

Back to today…

Ollie has been very patient with me. After I broke up with Jack I talked to Ollie.

He thought I had broken with Jack to be with him…but I couldn't do that to Ollie. So I explained how things were. That I loved Jack, but he has to be with Mimi, that I can't see him like my mother. In a coma, alive but death to the world at the same time. No I couldn't have that. I love him to much to do that to him.

I hoped Ollie would understand. I could only love him like the brother I did not have.

Ollie said that he understood. That one can't tell their heart to whom to love. But that no matter what he'll always be there for me.

I don't deserve him. He's to kind, I wish I could respond to his love, but I can't.

Today, I was going to go out with Bliss and Ollie. There was a new art exposition at the Met. They thought that it will cheer me up.

At 10:30 the front door bell rang. I grabbed my purse and my jacket. I was counting how much I had in my wallet when I walked out of my bedroom into the hallway when I pumped into him. He reached out to steady me. I flinched.

I saw hurt in his eyes.

"Sorry I wasn't looking," I told him.

"No harm done," he responded with an edge in his tone.

With that I walked down the hall to the entrance. Jack followed.

Two of his friends from the lacrosse team from school were waiting for him in the main living room.

I went to open the door; Bliss and Ollie were standing there waiting for me. Ollie leaned forward and gave me a kiss on the cheek.

"Hey, beautiful," Oliver said. I could feel Jack's gaze on my back.

Bliss rolled her eyes. "Let's go, before where late to the opening."

"Sure, I'm ready." I told them.

With that we headed out to Ollie's car.

JACK'S POV

I was in my room when I heard the front door bell ring. I wonder who it could be. I graved my wallet and keys from my bureau.

I opened my door and stepped into the hallway. That's when I collided with her. I reached out to steady her. She flinched from me, like if my touch burned her.

"Sorry, I wasn't looking," she told me.

"No harm done," I told her.

I could not take my eyes of her. She was stunning in her tight faded jeans she kept from her shoot from the Stitched for Civilization campaign she did with Bliss, with a beige turtle neck and high-heeled brown boots.

But there was something different from her face that I couldn't pinpoint.

She walked down the hall to the front door to answer. I walked behind her. Using the excuse that some of my friends were waiting for me in the living room.

When she opened the door I saw that Bliss and her Red-Blood friend were at the door.

She greeted them, then stepped out and closed the door behind her.

I so wanted to go after her "boyfriend". And kill him with my own hands. But I know that she'll hate me if I did. And I can't make myself cause her pain.

Just the thought that she choose a human over me hurts. They don't belong together like she belongs with me. She's a vampire like me, she might be half human but she has greater powers than your full vampires.

She might think I gave up on her, but she doesn't know that I won't ever stop loving her. She is the sun that wakes me up every morning. I can't loose her, especially to that pathetic red-blood.

I'll fight until I win her back. She couldn't stop loving me. I know she loves me. She might deny it but I know. And I'll prove her wrong. There's away for us to be together. There has to be away to break my bonding with Mimi before it's too late.

SKY'S POV

The new exposition at the Met was breath taking. I wished I was sharing this experience with Jack.

No matter. I had Bliss and Ollie with me.

I was staring at a master piece when suddenly everything went blank.

OLLIE'S POV

I was standing next to Sky talking to Bliss when suddenly Sky fainted.

I picked her up fast and threw my keys to Bliss to bring my car around to the front. I was going to take Sky to my Aunt. Dr. Pat's office to get her checked. It wasn't the first time Sky had passed out. These last couple of weeks she hasn't been feeling great. But she did not want to go see my aunt, Dr. Pat.

She said it was nothing. Not to worry. But in the last two weeks she hasn't fed from my blood. Every time I mention it she gets queasy. I don't like the feeling of this.

So I carry Sky out to the front were Bliss is waiting for us. I place her in the back seat and climb right next to her.

While Bliss drives us to Dr. Pat's Office. I give my aunt a call to inform her that I'm taking Sky in to get checked.
