Thank you to all my readers. I couldn't have gotten this far without all of you. Especially you, Katie.

Thank you!

(Fang POV)

I placed my head in my hands and groaned. What the hell was up with Max? She can't keep the thing. It'll kill her; even though she's a fighter. But why? Does she love Ari? No. She can't love that bastard. I-

"Daddy, where did Mommy go?" Rose asked, tugging on my shirt.

I put a ton of effort to place a smile on my face and picked her up. "Mommy... went somewhere to buy something. She'll be right back." I kept up the effort to smile at her.

She looked down and frowned, a crease between her eyebrows forming. Like it does on Max. "Okay. Daddy, tell Mommy to hurry up. I have to tell her a secret!"

I was curious. "You can tell Daddy..."

She motioned for me to bend down and she cupped her hands around her mouth.

"Iggy's got a lady-friend. I saw themp holding hands!"She whispered and jumped out of my lap.

I faintly smiled. What was I expecting? Some huge secret about Max that I didn't know? But Iggy's got a girlfriend? This is going to be interesting.

The smile flew off my face when my thoughts shifted to Max. Where was she again?

I got up slowly and strolled towards the door. I placed my hand on the knob and without looking back, I said: "I'm going to find her."

The cool night air felt good on my face. I really had needed that.

My thoughts wandered to Max. Where could she be?

(Max POV)

I needed to think. Alone.

I whimpered as I felt a pang of nausea hit me. I slowe down to a hover in mid-air and gripped my stomach. The world was spinning, and I was surprised when I felt the soft grass hit my face.

I shut my eyes and tried to register what just happened. I couldn't move my wings. And just my luck to fall into a forest.

I looked over to my right arm, and saw that it was at an angle that arms shouldn't be at. I tried to move it, but the pain that was radiating off of it stopped me.

I stood up shakily, and took note of my surroundings. I was in a clearing. The moon shone out brightly in the night. My knees failed me and I landed back into the grass with a thud.

I sighed. Maybe I'll go home when this nausea passes.

(Fang POV)

I sat down in a park bench, thinking.

If I were Max, pregnant with my half-brother's kid, confused and angry, hiding out from the man who raped me first, where would I go?

I'll tell you.

I'd kill myself for my life being so fucked up.

And that's the truth.

I sighed deeply. Where was she? I got up and lifted myself into the sky and searched. And searched.

The pain shot through me and I stopped and gripped my head. W-was this how Max feels when she gets one of those killer headaches? I-

'Hello Fang.'

'Why can't you come here without killing me?' I said in my head, while hovering in the air.

'Technically, you are not dead.'

'Whatever. Say what you need to say and get out.'

No response. Oh well. I'm still looking for Max, even with the Voice in my head.

I stopped near an eternally silent forest and landed quickly and silently in a tree. I leaned my head back, feeling myself slowly disappear. I faintly smiled. This was the one ability that I enjoyed.

'Warmer.'

I stiffened. 'What?' I thought back, desperate for answers.

No response.

I groaned in frustration. Dammit! Why can't my life get any easier? I took up into the sky again, trying for a second time to find Max.

This forest was huge. It had probably a 20 arces, maybe 30. Was Max even around here?

A scream pierced the night and I stopped flying, startled. I did a 360 and heard the scream again.

The clearing. That's where the screams are coming from.

I dived for the clearing and saw her.

Max, who was holding her right arm, lay in the grass screaming. And I saw why.

Ari.

He was standing near her, grinning wickedly. He bent down and tried to pick her up bridal style, but she screamed in agony.

Anger coursed throught my veins. Before I knew it, my foot was connecting with his face.

Ari, surprised, said, "Looks like you came back to play a little more."

"In your dreams, you bastard." He reached up to punch me low in the stomach, I blocked and he recieved some blows to his already screwed up face.

I smiled. I was enjoying this.

I faked to the right and knocked the breath out of him. Then I did a roundhouse kick to his chest. And finally, when I was towering over him, a kick in the groin topped it off.

He groaned and tried to get up, but he gave up and lay back down. I smiled dimly as I turned away form the bloody sight.

Max was sprawled out on the ground, shivering. Her right arm was twisted at the weirdest angle. I'm no doctor, but I can tell you that it's broken.

What am I supposed to do now?

Thanks!
