~Kyliah's P.O.V~

"Connor?" I knocked at his door for the tenth time, I was two scared to open it.
There was a feeling of disparity sitting on my chest.
"Open it" Luke demanded without emotion, but we both knew he was scared as well.
He loved Connor more than I ever could.
The door was swung open and the only thing that was in the room was an unmade bed, unpacked suitcases and an open window. 
We stared in disbelief at the curtains flowing with the wind.
"Do you think.." Luke whispered.
"Do not think like that," my voice cracked, "he loved us"
"Then how?" My eyes closed in denial.
"I don't know" there was only two things we could do.
After searching the area for a few hours Luke finally gave in and allowed me to make the call.

"I did not think I would hear from you" his smooth voice made my ears perk.
"I-I need a favor, Chris"
"Anything for you," he said quickly, "what is the problem?"
"We checked my fathers area for Connor," I paused, "we think he may be on your land"
"He was kidnapped?" Shock was evident in his voice.
"It is a theory" I bit my lip hard, "we did not hear any noise in the other room.."
"I am sure you would have heard something?" He pressed on the situation.
"No, we were busy if you catch my drift" the words tumbled out of my mouth.
"Oh," he said stiffly, "I will help you guys out"
"Thank you, Christian" my throat squeezed in protest, I was trying to fight my tears.
"Do not cry, baby" he cooed in my ear.
'Aweee' Kai gushed.
'Luke is better' Liah declared.
I pushed both of them out of my mind and began to walk hand in hand with Luke.

A strong grip on my hand brought me out of my thoughts, we were in the middle of the woods once again. This time it was noisy, the wind was crashing against the trees and clouds taking over the horizon.
"Kyliah?" A familiar voice asked.
"Eliot?" My eyes widened. His eyes were dark and heavy with eye-bags, hair wild.
"Another one of your conquest?" Luke growled.
"Who is this?" Eliot sized Luke, it was clear he thought I should be with Christian.
"My boyfriend"
"Does Christian know?" His question made Luke groan in annoyance.
"Yes, but enough about me," my shoulders sagged, "what happened to you?"
"Olivia died" his eye twitched and he started scratching his arm. His once beautiful face was now gaunt and sunken.
"The bond..." I said quietly.
"Yeah," he shifted on his feet uncomfortably, "I will die soon"
"How did she go?" Luke asked sadly.
"Blue-Eyes killed her after they sent Kyliah to Hell" he chuckled darkly.
"It's my fault?"
"Stop her" Eliot whispered as he walked into the trees.
"Eliot!" I yelled after him but Luke tugged me into the other direction.

"Why are you back on our land?" Someone barked making Luke jump.
"Hi, Redhead" I giggled at Luke trying to fix his posture.
"My name is James, Curly" there was a smirk on his face, his hands were crossed.
"Curly? My name is Kyliah" my eyes trailed over his frame, power was emitted from his perfect posture.
"Curly suits you better" he winked and motioned for us to follow him.
I noticed how Luke did not grab my hand this time, it made Liah sad.
"I think you know where to go, Curly" James nodded up at the stairs and resting a hand on Lukes shoulder to prevent him from following.
My feet trailed up the stairs with anticipation, half of me was dying to see Christian and the other wanted to run back in Luke's arms.
I reached the large door and the fruited mint smell wafted in the air.
"Come in!" A fainted sound came from inside.
I pushed the door open only to see a smiling Christian in the same place I last met him.
"Hi" I greeted lightly.
"How are you feeling?" He placed my hand in his, like he always did.
"Scared," there was a pause, "have you seen Eliot?"
"It tore me apart when he left" his eyes sparkled with grief.
"He is a rogue now?" My gasp filled the room.
"He dropped out of Beta position then left the pack" Christian hummed solemnly.
"It is not safe out there," my grip on him tightened, "he is going crazy, Christian"
"His only wish was to be left alone"
"I will respect that" I peered into the blue eyes, the golden swirls that had guilt hidden behind them.
"You-," Christian started but was cut off by the door being slammed open.
"We found him" James said in a clipped tone followed by crashes downstairs.
"What is happening?" Christian asked cautiously.
"You better see this for yourself" his lips were pursed tightly as he guided us to the chaotic seen.
