Then I felt the bed sink down and I felt his arms snake around me and hold me to him.

"Is this ok?" He whispered in my ear.

I nodded knowing that he would realize.

I felt so safe nestled into his chest, warm even.

"Goodnight beautiful…" he whispered.

"G'night." I sighed and drifted off into darkness

When my eyes opened it was still dark out, one of the many downfalls to being a vampire, sure I slept but it was for very short periods of time. The sleeping positions had changed a bit. I was lying on my side now staring into Alec's chocolate eyes.

"Good morning." He sighed and brushed his hand across my cheek.

The fact that it was still dark meant that I couldn't get into the palace. I meant I was still with Alec.

"How did you sleep?" He asked after I didn't say anything.

"Wonderfully. How about you?" I asked smiling.

"The best." He said seriously.

"It's still dark out." I said unnecessarily.

"Yes, it is." He said.

We were both silent for a moment.

"Let's go outside" I said jumping up.

"Aren't you worried about running into that guy again?" Alec asked.

"Zane? No. He probably went back to the human world, anyways I've got my personal superhero anyway." I smiled.

"Right."

We both walked outside, we did a ton of walking and talking, until he knew almost everything about me, I excluded the fact that I was engaged to the King, he I'm pretty sure that he told me everything about him, which wasn't much.

The sun began to peek, and shops opened. I picked the closest one and dragged him into it. I tried on tons of dresses; these styles of dresses were different as well. I didn't care, even though they looked a bit Renaissance inspired. I picked a really pretty one, with was dark purple, with gold trimmings, and long see through fabrics that fell from the arms, it truly looked royal. I pulled my money out to buy it, when Alec stopped me, told me it was on him, and only if I put it on now.

I agreed and did. I asked the lady for a bag for my old dress, there wasn't one quite large enough to hold the whole thing so I used two, one for the dress itself, and one for the long coat corset.

"You look beautiful." He breathed, and I blushed.

"Thank you Alec, for you comment, and the dress." I said. We had stopped in the middle of the street; I hadn't realized quite where we were walking to, until I saw the Palace.

"I hadn't realized…" I breathed.

He nodded.

"Mika, is that you?!" Izzy screamed coming from the door.

When she met us, she complimented me on my dress as only us girls can, and gave Alec a weary glance.

"Your highness…" Alec said bowing to Izzy, so did the same only saying 'sir.' Then she turned to look at me.

"Mika, where have you been? Kain is still in the infirmary! He's been looking for you everywhere! Well not really he's had everyone looking for you since the sun was showing light!"

I peeked a look at Alec's face it was extremely composed.

"I'm sorry, I know, I got locked out when it got dark. Alec allowed me to crash at his place since I had no where to go!" I said desperately.

"Well you better hope Kain doesn't find out his Fiancé was out with another man!" Izzy yelled.

If Alec's face was composed then, it was now masked in complete shock and hurt. I should have told him.

"It's not like we did anything! Gosh, Izzy. You make it sound like I had an affair, when you should be thanking this man!" I yelled.

"Thanking him? Why should I thank him?" she said looking at him disgusted.

"Because…" I said tears forming in my eyes. "If it weren't for him…I would have been…been raped last night!" I said.

"Oh, I'm so sorry Mika, I had no idea." Izzy cooed patting my back.

"It's ok…I just thought that you were being so mean to him." I said.

I turned to Alec.

"Thank you so much Alec, truly, I'm indebted to you, you might have saved my life." I said giving him a hug.

"Just doing my duty…" he said then bowed. "…your Majesty." I felt my eyes widen as he straightened up and walked away.

I knew I should have told him…I should have.

"Your Majesty, Mika has been found, she is here." The useless nurse said, I had already spoken to Izzy about it, she had told me everything, begged me to go easy on Mika, as if I'd yell or hurt her, I was just happy she was okay.

"Thank you, please send her in." I said.

Only a few minutes later Mika walked in wearing a stunning dress I knew I hadn't given her. Strange.

"Mika, are you alright?" I asked. I was okay to move again, all the wrappings were gone, the needles, the tubes, everything, now it was just a guessing game as to who had done what to me.

"I'm fine Kain, I'm sure Izzy had filled you in about everything." She said looking down.

"I'm just glad you're alright." I said reaching my hand out to her. She took it and I pulled her onto the bed with me.

"You can sleep if you want, you must not have gotten enough last night without me there." I said looking her in the face, actually she didn't look too tired, that was good.

"Who was this person who I heard saved you?" I asked.

"His name was Alec…Alec Greer." I said.

"Greer?" I said in disbelief.

"Yeah." She said simply, nuzzling into me. "I'm so grateful."

"Greer…" I repeated again. "You must stay away from him, you promise me."

"Kain, he's really nice, he didn't do anything sketchy, he was so polite." She said shaking her head not understanding.

"Mika, just promise me, stay away." I said seriously.

"Alright." She whispered. I just held her for a few hours until she said she was going to go upstairs and read a little.

I left Kain in his room, and used the excuse of wanting to read a book to return to my room. Why couldn't I talk to Alec? What was wrong with him? Confused I dropped myself onto my bed and cried into my pillow.

I wasn't sure why I felt this way about the situation, I wasn't sure about anything anymore, the only thing I was sure of, is when in looked up to my window and saw Alec climbing in, I was so very happy.

"He's told you…told you to stay away from me." He said breathing hard, probably from getting up here, although he could fly, but still it was high.

I just nodded, pushing myself against the headboard of my bed. Anger was displayed on his face as he stalked over to me and put his face right in mine…his lips right on mine, I pulled back but he came forward not allowing me to break to kiss holding my face in his two hands.

When he let me go I just stared at him wide eyed and confused.

"I how figured out who you are, and what you are to the King, and I know that I could be killed for kissing the woman who is to be become our Queen, but Mika I love you. I fell for you the moment I met you last night. I know you know that, before I even knew who you were." He said.

"Yeah…I know but…Alec…I'm getting married, I'm engaged, I'm going to be Queen, I can't…be doing-" I was cut off as he kissed me again.

"I know you feel it." He whispered then kissed me again, sending tingly sensations throughout my entire body. "That feeling, we belong together." He said pulling away to look me in the eyes.

"Alec, I can't. I really just can't. It's not right, I can't do this to Kain." I said. "He loves me." I cried.

"What about you? Who do you love?" He asked.

"Isn't that obvious?" I asked confused.

"No, Mika it isn't. Tell me." He said taking my hand.

"I love him Alec…I love Kain." I said looking down the tears falling onto the bed.

"I don't believe you." He said angrily.

"I love him Alec!" I said angrily as well.

"I know that you love him, and you have affection for him, but Mika, it's only been a day and I can tell, your feelings for me are already so much more!" He said shaking me.

"Get out." I choked more tears building up in my eyes, my voice cracked.

"No! Mika tell me you love me." He said.

"No, Alec just…go." I gasped.

I was in so much pain that I just crumpled to the bed when Alec rose from it.

"I love you Mika." He said sadly. "Never forget that, if you ever start to realize just how much you love me…please come and find me." Then he was gone and I was left with my tears.

Ok that's it for now, I have major writing block for this story! HELP ME OUT!
