Dante`s POV
I sat next to Zhalia on the couch as she held Clara. She was two months old now. The phone rang and I went to get it.
"Hello." I said.
"Can I speak to Zhalia Veil?" The man said from the other line.
"Of course. Hold on."
"Dante?" Zhalia asked "Who is it?"
"It`s for you." She put Clara in her playpen and took the phone.
"Hello... Yes... What?... Are you sure?... Alright... Thank you for calling." She put the phone down and sat on the couch, crying.
"Zhalia? Who was that?"
"Someone from the Huntik foundation who worked on high security."
"What did he say?"
"Klaus is dead."
"I`m so sorry." I sat down next to her and wrapped my arms around her. I understood how much he meant to her.
"I just can`t believe he`s gone."
"It`s gonna be okay."
"He was like a father to me. And now he`s gone."
"I know. I know." She didn`t speak anymore, she just cried into my shoulder. The baby started to cry from her playpen. Zhalia wiped her tears away and got her.
"Shh baby." She said "It`s okay. Mommy`s fine. Everythings fine." She rocked her back to sleep. "I`m going to put her in her crib."
"Alright."
Zhalia`s POV
I put Clara in her crib and sat in the rocking chair. She was so peaceful. So calm. Like nothing in the world could hurt her. Tears brimmed in my eyes again as memories of Klaus filled my mind. He gave me a home. Took me off the streets.
"Are you okay?" Dante asked from the doorway.
"I will be."
"I know it`s hard to loose someone close to you."
"He taught me how to be a seeker. If it wasn`t for him. I wouldn`t be where I am today. I wouldn`t have met you and Clara wouldn`t be here."
"It does feel like you`ve lost a part of yourself. Doesn`t it?"
"I used to visit him. Tell him what was going on in my life. He changed alot and was softer. The last time I saw him was a few weeks after Clara was born. He saw pictures of her. I hoped I could get him out of ther one day so he could meet her. Now I can never do that."
"It will all be okay." He walked up to the chair and sat in the one next to me. Hie put his hand over mine and kissed my head.
There`s a bad moment for you. I kind of feel like a bitch for killing him off. But I needed to add something bad. It can`t be all rainbows and ponies. So he`s dead.
