Life Always Lives Forever
Chapter Four
Maya
I stared inside the doors at Alek and the red-haired girl. My brain racked and racked through pictures and names of people that I had met while with
Valentina. "Her name is Maya! That's where I remember her name, she was there when Valentina and the rest left to protect my mother and kill Scarface along
with some of the other Order." I had remembered everything now. The girl, the hunt, how Alek watched her with the same eyes as he had always watched
me. "Alek, you know how I get when I'm hungry!" growled Maya. I opened the doors to make Alek and Maya turn their heads in surprise. "Chloe... I..."
Alek trailed off standing up. "Don't even... you left me to die all alone. If you think that doesn't matter then I don't ever want to see you again! I wouldn't
want you to have too much fun with Maya!" I said as I turned to leave. Alek grabbed my arm and I extended my claws. "I'm sorry Chloe, it's just that
there was an emergency that I had to attend too," Alek said trying to cover himself up. "Alek, I have loved you ever since I laid eyes on you after I
became what I am now, and I thought you did too, don't ever lie to me because I know when you are lying. So now, Maya, maybe you can have a mate
after all. With the leader of the San Fransico pride. I'll be paying the next door pride a visit tomorrow along with Quail. She says they have a handsome,
powerful guy that leads them. Maybe I can get some fun in somewhere in all the buisness," I said making Alek's spine tingle. "Chloe I'll go instead..."
I turned to look Alek in the face and when he bent down to kiss me I turned and walked outside. "Maybe Basset was wrong of what she told me.
You may after all don't die because of me. Basset was very wrong on that part," I said making Alek and Maya stare at me with shock about that I had
talked to our Goddess Basset. As I faced the city once more I whispered out, "I'll always love you Alek Petrov." I left with that on the air and scaled to
the roof where I made my way to the hospital. I found Amy and Paul coming down the hall, hand in hand. Amy was crying and Paul was tearing up.
When he saw me coming their way he stopped and looked me straight in the eyes and then I lost it. "I know that she's gone," I whispered looking
at Paul. The fight was over for my mother. Now I had lost everybody that was close to me except for Amy and Paul. "You both are all I have left now.
I'll protect you both with all of my lives and I'll see you both soon," I whispered as I left the hospital. If mom was dead and Alek was betraying me then
San Fransico wasn't my home anymore. "Good-bye San Fransico," I said as I got to the city limits. The town was aglow and the last thing I remembered
as I left for our neighboring pride was Valentina's words. "Life always lives forever Chloe, and you can't change that."
