1 Chapter 7

Max turned away and quickly left he room. Ran down the hallway, out the door and out of base camp.

Alec looked at Blade for a second and then ran after Max. He paused as he saw that he had left the base. He knew no one had gone with her. It was to dangerous for just one transgenic to be alone out there. He swore and ran after her. His wound started to hurt immediately. "Shit, Max."

Max had run 10 blocks before she had stopped. She went into an alley way and sat down. She didn't do anything, she just stared at the wall that faced her.

Alec could smell her. He fallowed her sent all to an alleyway. He looked down and spotted her. She wasn't moving. She heard him and turned her face towards his and the tears came. Alec winced, feeling guilty for the pain he had caused in Max. He sat down beside her, wincing all the way as his stitches snapped at the abrupt movement. He didn't care, not at the moment anyway. He rapped his arm around her and pulled her to him. "It's OK Max. I'm here for ya. Please don't cry Max, I'm real sorry. Honest Max." J whispered words of comfort to her for a good 15 minutes before the tears stopped.

"I missed them so much," she said, referring to her brothers and sisters. More so, her brother Zack and Ben.

"I know Max." Alec said, understanding. He held her closer and kissed her forehead…then her eyes, her ears…her nose and then he paused and looked her in those chocolate eyes, pondered…and then went for the kill. He kissed those lips he had wanted to devour for so long. He trust his tong into hers. Demanding and wanting all at the same time. It felt so good. His need for her had been multiplying since he had met her.

Max didn't know what the hell had come over her, but it felt right. It just…felt…good. She moaned as Alec became more demanding. She just couldn't believe she had missed this. For months she had known that she was really attracted to Alec, but she had been scared for some reason. Probably cause she thought that Alec didn't feel the same way about her. Well, boy, had she ever been wrong?

Alec was getting weaker, but he so desperately didn't want to lose this. He held on to Max as he groaned her name. He stopped kissing her and just held her tight, real tight.

Max knew something was wrong. "Alec?"

"Just give me a sec." He groaned, winced and his hold on her went limp.

"Alec!"
