Thank you to my two faithful reviewers, Kalista Turner and JenniferLongo, I really am surprised that not one person said What? To Fala's death, she made it very interesting. Now on to today's story. Will Jager kill Kaye? What will Jaguar do about Nikolas and Kaye? What will Risika do to Aubrey? What is Nikolas going to do to Jager? OOO I am shaking with anticipation.

Chapter 23

"The Darkness, no No NO make it go away. I'll be swallowed up. I'll die don't leave me in the darkness." Kaye's screams were so loud they probably were heard in China. Her mind was screaming too. With the combined efforts of both screams she was loosing her energy like a waterfall.

Not one of the vampires sitting in Jgers room lasted long listening to Kaye scream. They all stole glances at the locked closet at the end of the room.

"What are you going to do with her?" One of the females asked.

"Right now I think I'll find a way to shut her up. After that I have no idea. She was at Nikolas's house. It'll be interesting to see what Nikolas has to say about it. She seemed to be expecting someone but she didn't even attempt to fight my hold though it was easy to see that she could. She screamed for Nikolas before we disappeared. Maybe she and Jaguar had a falling out. That would be splendid" His voice was even as if he viewed the world of a humans mind to be one of stupidity and mindless dreams.

His comrades laughed, the sound of twenty some-odd vampires laughing is a sound that will chill the bone marrow. The sound reverberated to the closet where Kaye sat.

The sound reached her ears and she stopped screaming. Her throat was raw and a searing pain shot through her throat to her head. She was fighting to breath. The room was too dark, too small, and too cold, too much like the cell she was kept in. Her mind went blank and her eyes rolled up into the back of her head. She collapsed on the floor.

Nikolas awoke to a cold and empty house. He knew that Kaye had no where to go and she didn't want to go home. He jumped up out of bed and opened his door. The corridor was empty. He blew his way through Kaye's door and saw that she wasn't there. The bed hadn't even been slept in.

The second he stepped into the room he felt the after-presence of an extremely powerful vampire being in her recently. Taking a deep breath and closing his eyes he examined it deeply.

"Jager!" he hissed.

Jaguar showed up at Nikolas's place and stood in the hall way.

"NIKOLAS!" he screamed.

"what is it that you want now Jaguar?"

"Where is she?"

"Where is who?" Nikolas was too distracted to really care much.

"You know very well who I am talking about. Kaye!" Jaguar was practically screaming.

Nikolas glared down at Jaguar. "Don't push your luck Jaguar."

"Don't threaten me Nikolas"

"Kaye isn't here you in case you couldn't tell. She has been taken from my hold by Jager. I can oh so guess that you had something to do with this."

"Jager's wrath should be with me not with Kaye!" he vanished

Nikolas stood in his once again empty house. He to vanished but he appeared in the home that Jager was using these days. The vampires in the room had just begun to laugh about something.

"What's so funny Jagger? Where is Fala? Or is she still hiding from Risika?"

Jager looked down in somber voice he said, "Fala is dead, and Jaguar killed her."

"My condolences. I'm very sad for you. But you might have made a mistake. The girl that was taken from my home is no more in love with jaguar than I am. She is my human play thing if you catch my drift. What do you want for her?"

hey waiting for reviews. Please excuse the fact that I'm going away and this will be the last chappie for a while. Much luv to all my readers.
