Erik returned to the apartment. He knocked on Christine's door and received no reply. She may still be mad at him, but this was something that they had to discuss. There was no getting around it. He opened the door and searched the room to discover Christine missing. Worrying the Sultana had already carried out her threat, Erik began frantically searching the apartment.

The last place he looked was the last place he thought he would discover Christine in. He opened his bedroom door to be greeted with brown locks spread around his pillows. Erik shut the door and return to his sitting room.

He poured himself a drink and began to think of how to tell Christine. He needed Sarah. He hated the change in Christine. Sarah could always smooth things back over with Christine. He needed to get Christine back to Sarah. Then things would be better. Everything would be better. He would need Nadir's help to do so.

He set his glass down to go search for Nadir. He would be back before Christine woke up. He just had to make her smile again. He could of nothing else other than getting her home.

CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC

Christine woke up to the sound of someone screaming. She crawled out of Erik's bed and headed for the sound. She opened the apartment door to find two women in the hall. One was crouching over the other. Christine got close enough to see that the woman was pregnant and curled into a ball.

Christine rushed back into the apartment and started a pan of water boiling. She rushed back into hall to find the woman still screaming while the other one looked scared. Christine crouched beside them. She took the pregnant woman's hand. She looked to the other one.

"I need you to go get Erik right now."

"Erik?"

"Tall, white guy in a business suit. Go now. Hurry." The woman jumped and began running, relieved to be getting away from the situation. Christine looked at the woman in front of her. "Is it a boy or a girl?"

"What?"

"Your baby. Are you having a boy or a girl?"

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

The little servant girl ran down the hall. She didn't see anyone that matched that description. She had decided to give up and go find her master when two men walked out of door into the hall. One of them matched the girl's description. "Are you Erik?"

"Who wants to know?"

"I need help. I was told to find Erik."

"Who told you?"

"A pale American with brown hair." The girl shook in the presence of this man.

"Christine." The name was a whisper in the air as the mysterious man had already disappeared.

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Erik ran through the secret passages attempting to get to his apartment as fast as possible. Getting to Christine was his only concern. He saw her squatting next to one of the Sultana's guests. The woman was clearly distracted by Christine. He released a breath he didn't realize he had been holding and continued towards Christine.

Christine felt the hall change. It wasn't something that she could explain. Things just felt different when Erik came near her. She looked up to see him frowning at her. "I need your help, Erik."

"Christine, you should have stayed in your room."

"Erik, I heard someone screaming in pain."

"Next time, you hear someone screaming in this country, ignore it."

"Erik, I can't believe you would be so cruel." Christine looked up to glare at Erik, taking her eyes off of the woman. What she saw surprised her. Erik held a baby in his arms. He handed the baby to Christine and picked the poor woman, who had lost consciousness, off of the floor. Christine followed behind him as he carried the woman into the apartment. He laid her on Christine's bed and took the baby back from Christine.

LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

The lady woke up and was surrounded by people. Her husband squeezed her hand and smiled at her. She gave a faint smile. "Did the angels take the baby?"

"What?"

"There were two of them. The one was so concerned about the baby. The other one was focused on her."

"The baby is fine."

Hazif found it funny that this woman was so confused that she could mistake a demon for an angel. He watched his mistress smiling in the corner. He could see the wheels turning in her head. He only wished he knew what she was thinking.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
