Ok, here's the deal: I won't update until I get at least 10 or more comments on this question- Should I keep going with the story, making it longer, or after the next chapter I do 2-3 more chapters and be done with this story? This is all of you, my readers, decision. It's your decision, because I have no idea what I want to do, so it's all up to you. Thanks for reading this far, keep voting and remember to comment, or else the other update will take FOREVER.

Alex's P.O.V.
~~~~
6th day.
"Ok, thank you Jace." I end the call with Jace, and head down to the lobby.
"Molly, I'm going to be out for a week." I say to my personal assistant, leaving without hearing her reply.
I head to my penthouse, grab a duffel bag and fill it with random clothes, not caring what I'm putting into it.
Ring! Ring! Ring!
"Hello?" I say, after answering my phone.
"Hey.. what are you doing? It sounds like something being shoved into something." Luis' voice carries through my phone.
"I'm going to Florida."
"You found her." He says, already knowing.
"Yes."
"I'm coming too." I hear rustling in the background, but this is something I have to do on my own.
"Luis." Still rustling.
"Luis." I say again, he still doesn't answer.
"LUIS!" I yell, finally the rustling stops.
"Yeah?"
"You can't come."
"Why not?"
"Because I have to do this on my own, I have to know what I'm up against."
There's a pause, then, "You don't know them Alex, I do. They're fucking monsters! There's only one guy Raven and I both trust, but you don't know anything about him! I have to go, Alex, I've known her longer and I most likely know what's going to happen. I will go." Luis is breathing hard, determination set on his tone. That's how I knew I won't be able to budge him.
"Ok, ok. Meet me at my lobby, in about 30 minutes." I say, then hang up.

"Thanks for letting me come, Alex." Luis says, once again.
"It's no probablem, man. It's true, you know Raven and her situation better than I do, so it's only fair that you come."
"How did you find her?"
"I have people, and connections." I say shortly.
"Ok.." Awkward.
"Luis can you tell me how it all began.." I barely start asking and he's already shaking his head.
"Sorry, man, it's not my story to tell." He says, sincerity in his tone.
"You really care about her, don't you?" I ask, keeping my eyes on the road, a small surge of jealousy going through me.
"Of course, I've known her since we were young. I should've protected her too, but I didn't." The pain is obvious in his voice.
"Hey.. don't go blaming yourself now. You can't go changing fate, fate does what it fucking wants to." I shrug a shoulder, "and in this case, it wants to fuck up an amazing woman's life." I sigh.
"You're right." After that, for the rest of the car ride, we're both silent, lost in our own thoughts.

Raven's P.O.V.
~~~~
7th day.
Jésus is driving me to wherever the fuck he is, but we keep stopping every now and then, because apparently Jésus was sent here to do some errands.
Also, part of his stupid rules, Jésus had to blindfold me.
"I'm sorry Raven, you know I don't really want to do this."
"It's ok Jésus, this is what God wants to happen, so it's happening." I sigh.
I lean my head on the window, wishing I could see Florida's beautiful landscape and ocean.
I feel pressure on my left hand and turn my head towards Jésus, imaging him staring straight ahead, his left hand tightly on the steering wheel, and his right hand slightly squeezing my left one.
"You know we can't be together, right Jésus?"
He makes a pained noise, then says, "I know, you love someone else, and he probably already claimed you." I can feel him shrugging, "it's ok, really. No need to butter anything up." He clears his throat.
"H.. W-why would you say I love him. I haven't even.. been.. with him." I stutter.
"It's written all over your face, mí amor. I always had hope, but you killed it two days ago, and it's alright. I always knew you were too good for me." He lifts my hand to his lips and kisses the back of it, then places it back on my lap, putting his hand back onto the steering wheel. "I just hope that after all of this, your finally gonna get the ending you hope for, that you deserve, after the hell you've been through."
"Even if I'll never love you in that way, just remember Jésus, I do love you in a way. And truthfully that should be enough. I'm sorry you're being made to deal with my stubborn ass," we both chuckle at that. "But, whatever happens, I know you'll become the new leader, and you'll make a great one too." All of this I said honestly, because truth be said I did love Jésus, just not in that way.
After that conversation, we make a few more stops at God knows where, then I fall asleep at some point. I'm thinking about what will happen tomorrow when we reach him.
Will he kill me right away? Will I be able to fight him? Will Alex find me on time?
Those questions keep running through my head, until I'm thoroughly knocked out from my lack of sleep these days, and fall into a deep, dangerous slumber.
