I own nothing, here is another chapter.

I woke in a cold sweat, though my eyes are open I can't think of why; my heart is pounding, mind empty. It's as if a hypodermic of adrenaline has been emptied into my carotid. I strain into the utter darkness, breathing rate beginning to steady.

I move from the bed feeling Warren's hand trying to find me even in his sleep, it was still dark, but something was wrong. I just grabbed the top and made my way through the darkness heading into the still stary night. It was like waking from a nightmare and then walking headfirst into one, Kai stood by the torchlight with a crying Ambala in his grasp.

He smirks at me, he was waiting for me to see this, see him take her once again. I move forward, "Kai, let her go," I could use my powers but he had her and she was struggling and pregnant one wrong move and I would be at fault for her downfall, well played Kai, very well played. He knew I wouldn't try it, not when someone I loved was involved.

His face was cold even with his smirk, "No, don't think I will, love," she cried harder and now Daro is coming along with Wiklow. I held my hand up, "Stay back, he will kill her," everyone halts at the words now all we can do is look on until something gives.

I state, "Take her and I still come for her, or we make a deal, Kai," I could feel my husband his warmth and anger.

Kai just winked, "Hello Peace,"

"Let her go, she is having your child,"

He just shrugged, like it was nothing, so I cut in. "Kai, I know you, you will not hurt your family no matter what. You have no soul but your family does mean something and she is having your baby," now the smirk was gone and he was snarling something under his breath.

"I will let her go, but I want his life,"

I sighed, "No, Kai. I will not give you his life, and you wouldn't take it. He is your family you're holding his greatest of grandmothers, Kai you created him," now everyone was looking on as Warren looked deranged and Kai, his face matched. That was my only card to save Warren, and that might not even work it might push this Kai to kill his family when I have always thought he wouldn't.

I continue, "I can offer one thing, her for me. I will go with you willingly, but you will let her go," Warren snatched my arm in a painful grasp. "Will you try and escape?" Kai was happier now, he cared for nothing.

"No," I won't my eyes on my husband seeing the pain I was inflicting on him, I turned back away to face Kai.

I could hear Warren, "Please no,"

Turning to him, "He might hurt her, if she is hurt so is the baby and that means you. I can't lose you," his face was breaking my heart and resolve but this had to happen. I learned so much from him, some lessons were not needed but he and BiBi have been a bright spot through the darkness.

Kai just chuckled, "Never thought Peace could love after all he has done but look at his face so broken. Here old man take the bitch," Daro was now taking her pulling her away from harm, Bexi just holds her backing away behind the wall of men. Bexi's brother's front and center weapons out, I turned back. "Don't keep me waiting too long," I would not try and escape, but let them bring the battle to him, and then I would take my chances.

Now his face was hard, this was the Warren I heard of and have never seen it was like a switch was flipped in him. Something very dark was coming out, I just reached out to touch his face feeling it all rough under my soft hand. "I love you Warren," he didn't smile just pressed his lips to mine in a kiss, it was harsh a very new kiss from him now this I heard about. It was raw and unbridled a new thing for him and me, he always kept his temper in check around BiBi and myself.

I pulled away and turned my back on him, with a cold front moving in taking over my insides my feet carried me to Kai who waited like he had all day with his hand out to me. Layla started yelling, "YA BLOODY CUNT, WE GONNA DISEMBOWL YA," she was too much and never had the heart to tell her that her counterpart in my time was such a well-spoken member of the community, she might ditch the idea of having babies. I just placed my hand into his, it was warm and soft as he pulled me close.

His eyes are warm and soft when he looks down at me, "Time to come home," like that the black mist swallowed us and in the blink of an eye we're in a warm room. Girya and black silk bed hanging's, it was very lavish. He just gave me a rare soft look, "Bexley, we're not in Dormor. It will take them some time to locate this castle as it is unknown to most. A nice warm climate since I know your great dislike of the cold. Now I know you will not go back on your word, and they will come and in time that will be handled. Because this has been the plan the entire time, I have you now we can be together here," he tried to use a low soften spoken tone as I just sit in the plush chair, trying to think.

I glanced up, "Kai, why are you doing this? You love me I know this now, I have read those journal's but that never made you good to me or a good man," every word said in defeat, I could not understand the way his mind worked and for that matter Warren, he hides things, has to have such a reign on his temper.

His body unfolds on another chair, his eye's never wavering from mine. "I was what I was raised to be, I was not a good man and took you for granted daily. I killed just to kill, but the same as Peace. Let me tell you a story, Bexley babe," his tone was hinting at something.

His mind was a constant poison that would fill him with venom, but his voice was like honey when he spoke. "I used to be best friends with Peace, we were inseparable until maybe eighth grade. We both knew we wanted to do bad things, rule over all the ants who seem to always need a leader even if he is not fit. Well, he and I together killed the Marson twins right before we left Maxville Middle. After that we went to high school, I was never going to Sky it was not for me, he kept killing and I started recruiting others to my cause. He has a form of a mental disorder, what one is not known to me. But when he first saw you, and yes I always knew he liked you. I never blamed him either because I did too. He stopped and started to take medication and his cousin came to my school. I did not love Lucie she was like a small battery but she was always good company, I killed her more as a show of power to Warren. I figured he end up killing you with his rage, it has happened and his mother has covered it up. But you and I got together first, and we know that story and my failures," he stopped his eyes lingering now on something on his leg, his fingers twiddled with it.

I didn't know whether to believe him or not, I mean yes it made sense. But BiBi, once said he was a good man now, but she said now. She loved him and she was everything good and pure if she trusted him then so would I. But I gave him a look, "I have been lied to so many times, by you and Warren. Whatever happened is tragic, and I could see you being friends. But why all this, you like it here and I do understand that. But soon enough I will be sick again, is this what you want?" looking into the cold pits he called eyes, but his true emotions flicker like flames.

He groaned standing up faster than possible, "You know it is not, I would let you walk from this castle and go home to our original timeline to save you. I have even looked here for a healer but nothing, same as our time for the time we dated me nor anyone could find one to save you from the life you live. I always admired your strength because I know I never could do it with the grace you have. Are you hungry?" he finally asked and maybe it was the noise coming from my stomach.

"I am," was all I said, I more so thought this was just the evil parts of him, but it seems he is just as split the evil side more out there. It was normal food like chicken, fruit, cheese, and warm bread. We eat, but it is so cold as I just get it out, "Fucking god warm this room up if you expect me to keep my oath as a Heroine. I will at least be comfortable," he just smirked nodding his head. He knew if Warren took his sweet time I will be out, or go out fighting, oath or not.

But I knew he would come, he, if he looked deep down, could feel me, much like when I close my eyes, I see him and feel him like he was sitting right beside me. But he has not grasped that factor that I know of, his voice cut me from my thoughts. "Come to bed, we both could use some sleep,"

I figured this was in the cards, sleeping in the very same bed, but Ambala is safe. I asked him, "You're going to keep your oath and leave Ambala and the baby alone, right. You have me, not a very fair trade but you took it," he chuckled pulling me down.

"She is safe as long as you are here with me, and in the end, I refuse to do damage to my family line even if that means that man lives. But for now, you're mine, I have no doubt he is coming but he is rather dim he acts rash and never uses his brains, that was what Jennifer and Bandit were good for,"

Shit, he made sense. Wiklow and Aria along with Jackie better reign his ass in. I glanced at Kai, he did age well he was muscled and fit but, in his thirties, now, with two perfect gray streaks running through his hair,"

He just smiled at me, "I know I aged well," he was still full of himself as he started removing his outer clothes, showing scars and just the now chiseled perfection that he worked for. I glanced away just closing my eyes feeling rage, my god man gets it together.

For my sake, Warren get it together… Kai had other plans and I was still the center of them.
