Zoey

" My Dear Zoey....My Love.... I've found you again.." Kalona opened his arms and brought me to his chest. " I am so sorry about your consort... But your with me now.." I could feel the mental pull of him as he hugged me against him. But i could see where the spirit i had thrown to protect Heath had struck him.. he still hadn't healed.

Even though i felt my heart stutter from his appearance... I pushed him away with more force than i had even been able to use, The beautiful Immortal stumbled backwards and looked utterly shocked. " I am not your Zoey! I'm Heath's! You Bastard!" I screamed in anger and moved away from him. He stepped forward once again and grabbed my wrists with enough strength to make them ache, causing my knees to buckle under me. I felt him wrap me in his arms once again.

"But you are my Zoey... your consort is dead... and your warrior will soon be next... im just angry that killing him almost killed you... i will try harder to actually get rid of you... perhaps..." He paused when he looked up. " I had forgotten why i was trying to find you zoey....But i remember now... Neferet will find you soon and try to bring you to me....so be aware of who you trust..." He grinned before i pushed away. But then the expression changed from pure triumphant to pain and agony. He pushed me away and held his stomach.

"ZOEY!!!"

"Priestess!"

"Zoey!!!!"

I heard the calls of two male voices, and the soft touch of warm hands against my cheek, but they felt clamy and wet. But when i opened my eyes i realized it was me who was clammy. Rephaim and Stark stared down at me with blue and green eyes of worry before Stark let out a breath. "What's wrong?" I asked softly.

" Rephaim sensed His father was in your dreams... and i felt your fear after that... so we were trying to wake you..." Stark said as he helped me sit up, The Raven Mocker knelt down beside me with worried blue eyes. Stark ran his palm up to my forehead. " Are you feeling well?" He asked gently and looked to Rephaim who frowned.

" I believe he has done something... my father... he can poison victims by dreams...Priestess did he make physical contact with you in anyway?" The Raven Mocker looked to me with large blue eyes before moving closer when i nodded Stark growled. " Then your in grave danger....Warrior...we have to keep and eye on her health... if her fever gets to high Kalona will win..." He took in a breath and looked to me as I began to feel unsteady.

" I'm Fine..." I sighed and looked to Rephaim with a frown. " Why arn't you with Stevie Rae?"

"I felt My Father...I told the second warrior where to bring her and that i'd catch up.. i flew here as fast as i could to wake up your warrior..." Rephaim frowned slightly.

"I'm fine now.. you should go back to Stevie Rae....She needs your keen scenses as well Rephaim.." I heard the power behind my voice and shivered slightly, When Rephaim nodded I grew thankful for him. "Rephaim?"

" Yes Priestess?" He asked softly and looked over his muscular shoulder.

" Thank you for your concern and help... and for keeping my best friend alive..." I smiled gently, when he sighed and looked towards the curtain I smiled.

" The accent grows an attachment for me... I can't seem to get enough of it... or her.." He let out the most human laugh that made me shiver again, I felt Stark shudder as well once he left my warrior looked to me.

" He gives me the creeps.. i still don't trust him..." Stark began but when a groan was heard in the tunnels we both shot out of the room to find Rephaim kneeling on the ground holding his shoulder. It was Stark who went up to help him. " What is it!" Stark asked.

" Its the Red Priestess....Shes in hurt..." Rephaim let out the most inhuman hiss and straightened his back before running out towards the opening of the tunnel, with Stark following behind him.
