*Jada's p.o.v*

I stand in the middle of the walk way stunned. His finally words echo through my head. This is war. I shudder from just hearing those words again. War for trying to save my life.

I felt a hand on my shoulder. Without thinking I right hook the person behind me. I hear a groan with a slow voice from the one and only. "Damn. I guess that training did pay off." I turn to see Harry rubbing his nose.

I go up to him moving his hand. Alittle blood but nothing to worry about. "Don't worry I deserved it." I put my hands to the side  of me and walk to my room. I hear him follow me with small steps.

I gently open my door and walk to my closet. "Jade are you alright?" I stop turning on my heel looking at him. "Hmmm let me see. Two years ago I met this guy who saved me from being killed. I stayed with him after I found out what he was but I looked passed it because he was sweet and still is.

One day we were enjoying ourselves then a evil man popped up. He tried taking me and killing the man I cared for. We almost made it but I got hurt. I thought it was my last. I had the man who I cared for hold me hearing him telling me to stay with him.

When I woke up to see him with tears in his eyes. He held me in his arms telling me he would protect me. I should remember that he cared. He kissed me one last time and I fall into darkness.

I finally got up to find I was no longer in his arms. I looked for him but I found a note that said to just remember. I cried for weeks. After I finally picked myself up. I went back to find him but he was gone. I felt numb until I met two people. I got a job and everything was fine.

Then out of no where I came home from the bar and a man was standing in my room lraving a note from a man I haven't heard for two years. Then he tried to kill me until he smelled my blood and saw it close. I also found another from the one I missed dearly.

Now he saved me from being killed once again. I remember telling myself that the next time I saw him I will make him feel the pain I went through. I trained for this day. Now he is standing in front of me. He told me he loved me. After two years. I let him kiss me. Hold me. I felt alive. Happy. Free that he was here.

Then the devil himself shows up in my kitchen. Almost killing me. I defended myself and he declares war." I walk up to Harry who just stares at me with wide eyes. Guilt. Hurt. Pitty. Sadness fills his eyes as he takes in my words.

"So you want to know if I'm alright. But before I answer your question. Tell me this. The pain I went through did you go through it. Because you know your answer and my answer. No I'm not alright!" He flinches when he hears me yell my answer.

I stare at him as he does the same. I feel eased from letting that out. He opens his mouth but closes it. I shake my head and walk away from him. I don't regret what I said. It's the truth.

"Yes." I stopped what I was doing after hearing him whisper his answer. "I could show you but I don't want you to feel the pain of loneliness and quilt that took over me for a year."

I feel his breathe against my neck. "Like I said before I will make up for everything I put you through. The heart ache. The pain. The loneliness. I don't ca-." He stops mid-sentence leaving me with confusion.

I turn and he is smelling the air. I open my mouth but close it when his eyes widen. "Grab as many things you can get. Now." I raise brow and look at him. "Jade. Don't question do it." He throws me a bag that was laying on the floor.

I don't think I just run my the places I have my weapons in and stuff them in. I turn when I hear someone going through my closet. Harry walks out with some clothes but I don't pay attention. The room is getting fogging.

"Liam get the boys and meet me at the back of Jade's apartment. No questions. Go. Now." He hangs up and looks to me. The room is filling up with smoke quick. To quick.

My throat and eyes start to burn. I start coughing from it dropping my bag to the floor. "Jade?" I look up to see Harry standing there with panic. I look up to see a figure behind him. I point to tell him someone is behind him.

The figure disappears when he turns. Laughter fills the room. The door salms shut along with the window. "Lets see if you can get out of this. The whole building is lit. So think quick."

My vision starts to fade in and out. I feel an arm wrap around me pulling me into their chest. "Jade close your eyes." I close them tight with tears coming down. Not from crying but from smoke hitting them. "Do you trust me."

I grip him tighter since its the only way I can answer. I feel my feet are no longer touching the floor. I grip onto Harry even more from fear of falling but I know he won't drop me.

I hear a crash from around me. Feeling something hit my hair and hands. A chill runs through my body along with fresh air. I want to open my eyes but I can't. I feel so tired. I have no more energy. "Rest, Amor, rest."

Aftet hearing those words from the man holding me. I fall into a peaceful sleep. No worries until I wake to find that I will no longer dream. Only face the hard truth of reality.
