Chapter 2

Chloe and Alek headed towards the apertment with fast beating hearts. Chloe didn't know what would happen when she saw her dead friend and pratcially second mother. She also didn't know what she would do when she saw their killer, who was also Alek's brother.

"Were here." Alek snapped her out of her mini-rant.

"I don't know if i'm ready." Chloe looked at him.

"I don't know if I am either, but we have eachother." Alek hooked her hand in his.

Chloe nodded and they got out of the car. They hooked hands again and walked into the complex. They went into the private elevator and made the slow ride up to the 18th floor. When they reached it Chloe had tears rolling down her cheeks. They elevator door opeed and they just stared at the door.

"Come on." Alek led her out of the elevator. He slowly push the door open to see Jasmine and Valentina strune across the floor. Zane was over near the kitchen. Chloe had to gasp for air when she saw them.

"Jasmine... Valentina... no." Chloe got down next to them. She knew they had died but she didn't believe it until she saw them. "How, how could he?' Chloe cried.

"Chloe, we can't keep them here. We have to take them somewhere. I'm gonna burn Zane but, I wanna bury them. They deserve that." Alek had Zane's body over his shoulder.

"They can't be dead, they just can't. Jasmine please wake up. Jasmine! Valentine?" Chloe shook them, nothing happened.

"Chloe, there isn't anything i wish more but, they're gone." Alek silently cried as well.

Chloe stood up and looked at the monster that had killed them.

"I wish we could just kill him again, and again." Chloe gritted her teeth.

Alek just layed him down and lit a match. "You do it." He handed her the match. She threw it on the body. It lit up into a huge fire.

They heard gasps of air some from the living room. Alek and Chloe ran into the room to see Valentina and Jasmine standing and breathing.

"Chloe, Alek. How are we?" Jasmine asked.

"Who cares. You're alive." Chloe ran and hugged her friend.

"Those who die for the uniter will live if the evil parishes. Alek, you burned Zane, he parished, that means because me and mom died for Chloe, we got to live." Jasmine hooked all the loose pieces together.

"Your right. It's brilliant." Alek told himself.

"Good, now tell us exactly what happened last night." Valentina went back to her normal self.

Alek and Chloe explained what happened with Brian and the order. They were dumbfounded by the whole story.

"I'm sorry about your human Chloe." Valentina grimaced.

"I'll be fine." Chloe looked at Alek.

Alek just looked at her with disapointment. Not with her but with himself. She was in love with someone else who was dead. Why couldn't she just love him.

Chloe called her mom and explained everything. Her mom just told her to come home and stop confusing her. So Chloe and Alek left to go back to the house. Jasmine stayed with Valentine so that they could spend the day together. They had some catching up to do.

Chloe was out of the complex before Alek. When some guy came up from behind her and grabbbed her.

He covered her mouth, Chloe tried to scream, he shoved her into a big black limo. They tied her hands, feet, and covered her mouth. She scwermed and tried to get loose.

Alek came out and saw a guy getting into a limo. He could see Chloe's blonde hair from the back seat.

"Chloe!" The car took off and Alek tried to keep up but it was impossible. He had to travel by rooftops. He saw them pull into a deserted buliding and drag Chloe out of a car.

Alek followed them in, he saw them tie Chloe up to two poles and take her mouth cover off.

They turned their backs for a few seconds and Alek tried to run to get Chloe. Just as he came out of the shadows a guard turned around and punched him in the stomach.

"Alek. No." Chloe cried.

"Gonna try and save her are you?" The man teased. He threw Alek up against the wall.

"No Alek, Please. Alek... Please, stop hurting him." Chloe begged

The man just kept hiting him in different places. Alek finally crumbled to the floor.

"No! Alek." Chloe moaned.

"Sorry sweetheart, looks like you have no more protectors." The man gave her a sinister smirk.

"Wrong." A britsh accent came from behind him. Alek hit him on top of the head with a brick and the man fell to the floor.

Alek unhooked Chloe from the poles. She through her arms around him.

"Chloe, thank god you're okay." Alek held her in his arms. Her warm body just felt right next to his.

"Thank you." She whispered into his shoudler. Chloe couldn't thank him enough for all he had done for her.

"I love you Chloe King." Alek told her.

Chloe didn't answer, she just hugged him tighter. She knew he loved her but she didn't feel that way, not yet.
