“Who is he?” Ivy whispered.
“One of the Council members on our side, so they might already know.”
“Yes, they do know.” He said glancing back. “They also know what you are planning or planned to do.” He said as they continued to walk.
“Where are we going?” Drake asked.
“To meet the Council.” He said stopping at a black limo. “We’ve known about you since you were born Ivy. Your parents thought it was fine for you to be protected and kept in the dark, and they also thought keeping us in the dark about you was safe. That was mainly the reason they were killed, had they come to us we would have been more prepared to protect you.”

“Look Ivy I know you want to be this girl that wants to fight this, but they are going to make you do things you don’t want to do,” Drake said touching her face. “Please don’t fight them, the more you fight them the more they like it. Please just eat, they will let you leave this room if they see that you are giving them what they want.” “Fine.” She said dragging the chains over to the bed where the food was. “I don’t want you around me, you betrayed me Drake I fell for your lies, I thought you loved me but you are a pathetic person.” She growled. “Please just leave and let me eat in peace.” “I will do as you requested, but we will have to be together, we are bound as one just remember that.” He said before leaving her there to eat as she requested. &nb
After Ivy finished up getting a few things of sweets, she decided to head back to her room, she wasn’t sure if there was a curfew or anything and she didn’t want someone to come and find her. Laying down on her bed she wasn’t sure if someone would bring her dinner or if there was a place for her to go, she was exhausted so she decided to try and sleep, that was short-lived when someone knocked on her door. She opened the door. “Come with me, it’s time to eat,” Drake said. “I’m not hungry.” She spoke. “It doesn’t matter, they told me to bring you downstairs and if you refuse, they will come up here and force you down.” He said moving out of the way. “Please.” &nb
$Chapter Chapter 32 9 months later Ivy was two days past her due date, every day seemed to go like a blur. She didn’t care to live, she avoided people, she avoided anything about the dark dwellers. Quinn became overly protective of her and the baby. He wanted to make sure the baby was cared for, and he wanted Ivy and the baby secured so that no one could take them away from him. He had plans for them. Ivy would be forced into making a blood pact with the dark dwellers, he wasn’t going to let her go, she was too precious to them, her blood alone could make them stronger, she could produce more dark dwellers, the baby a boy could bring forth an army of strong men that could destroy the white dwellers without even knowing what to do. “Ow,” Ivy said trying to stand but the pain was almost unbearable. &n
“Nothing,” Quinn growled. “I am trying to contain one of my dwellers that had a baby recently, and she is confused.” He said looking at the dwellers all around. “We don’t want to have this war right now.” “Seems to me she doesn’t want to go with you I think we’ll take her and the child into custody.” Nick snapped stepping beside Ivy. “Unless you rather start something that we hadn’t finished before Quinn.” “You know Nick, you and I have a duel to square why don’t you tell your other Dwellers to step down and let us duel and see where we end up.” He mused. “I seem to remember the last battle I won.” 
“Good, so we can do this in a few hours, you will stay here.” He said opening a door to a room. “After that, I will arrange a getaway, but like I said you will have to keep going otherwise Quinn will find you.” “Okay.” She said walking into the room with Evan. “I will be back in a little while with another Elder to help me, after that, I will have to summon Quinn and Nick to be witnesses, unfortunately.” “They have to be here to see it?” she said with a frown. “Yeah, I am sorry.” “But it was only Dr
Ivy’s eyes jerked open, Nick cradled her. She looked down at the dagger still in her stomach, pulling her out she healed her wound. “Ivy you're alive!” Nick said touching her face. “He must never know.” She said before disappearing and reappearing at the train station. She wasn’t sure where she was going, she remembered what Drake said, she had to keep moving. She had to run as long as she can. She knew Quinn would find out she was alive and would come after her, and when he did they would fight and she would have to kill him, or he would succeed and kill her this time. She prayed that her son would be safe and grow up not knowing he was a Shadow Dwe
Ivy wasn’t going to let him get away with this. There had to be a way to get away from him. She would find a way, she needed to find Drake and see if he knew if Quinn knew where their son was. She was afraid Quinn would bring their son there and then it would truly be over for her. Ivy was scared of this place, she wanted to find a way out but she knew it was going to be impossible. She wondered if she could convince Drake to help her get out or if he was under Quinn’s rules. She wondered if he would betray everything he knew and help her out. She felt something for him, she wondered if he was true to his words and that he loved her too or if that was something he lied to her to keep a little control over her. “Ivy,” Drake called. Tur
Ivy looked in Drake's direction as Quinn pulled her away from him. She was concerned there was something sinister planned tonight. She was worried Drake knew something and she was going to find out in the worst way possible. She was scared, she swallowed the lump in her throat and tried to act like herself but even Quinn knew something was up. “Don’t worry Ivy there are only our Dwellers here, the White Dwellers cannot come here not unless they want to die.” He said pulling her closer to him. “I’ll kill them if they try and take you from me.” “I have a bad feeling being here with you.” She said trying to pull away from him. “Can you let me walk on my own?”
