Chloe's POV I have no idea how long I have actually been here, I'm brought meals multiple times a day, I can't see if it's even light outside, I haven't left this room since they brought me in. Alaric comes and goes and so does Sydney with food and forcing me to bathe myself. I'm sick of being here, alone, I've never felt so alone. No Callie, or Lucas, Austen, David, Cole, Finn, Laurie, Claire... My head feels empty, like a dark hole that never ends, Callie has been with me since I was 15 years old and now she's just gone, granted I didn't realize she wasn't just my own subconscious for the first 2 years but she was still there. 'Callie, I really miss you' it's like it just echos in there, then no response as usual. I wonder if she can hear me and I just can't connect to her, is she screaming to me trying to get my attention or is she lost in the dark, sleeping away without realizing she's gone? "UGH! I hate it here!" Suddenly the door opened and there he was, his scent swirling aroun

Chloe's POV Sydney brought me some dinner tonight, she was very aggressive, she threw my tray down knocking off most of the food on the floor, she had some clothes tucked under her arm that she just dropped onto the floor, glared at me them left abruptly without speaking to me at all. It was strange, but then again so was she, it's not like she was ever exactly cheerful or nice towards me but this was different, like I pissed her off. Oh well, I ate what was left on the tray, it wasn't much but something was better than nothing right, beggars can't be chosers. I was sitting on the chair in the corner when the door opened again, I flinched because it was way to early for someone to be coming in, I looked up to see someone new. She was quite beautiful, long black wavy hair, almost to her but, these breathtaking amber eyes with swirls of green in them, petite and pale, must be another vampire. She walked over to me, knelt down in front of me, looked up to me "I need

Alaric's POV Chloe is being so very different with me today, I feel so guilty over choking her against the wall, I didn't even think about how her wolf was going to act when she finally came forward. I should have known it wasn't Chloe but I always let my anger have full control, act first think about it later. I came back from the bathroom, just got up, got me some clothes the carried them to me before climbing up into bed. I was shocked to say the least, I got dressed then walked to the bed to get in when she pulled the blankets back for me, again, shock, not knowing what to think or how to feel. When she told me about Sydney, the way she acted it upset me, the thought of her hurting Chloe made me see red yet Chloe didn't seem angry about it she just matter of fact told me what happened as well as telling me how Aria was, that she likes her.Chloe sat forward to look at me, I could feel my self letting my walls fall down as she looked into my eyes, she looks to me with curiosity, a

Alaric's POV She missed me today, I stayed away all day after last night, if she heard me say I lived her she didn't let on, I doubt she heard me, she was sleeping already. I have no idea what came over me to even say that out loud, she does something to me, she makes me feel things I've never felt before. Now she's laying on my chest, trailing her fingers through every line on my chest down to the top of my boxers. She slowly stopped as her hand fell, her breathing evened, I knew she was sleeping. I brushed her hair from her face looking down at her, those perfectly long black eyelashes resting on her face, her flawless complexion, I trailed my fingers down her arm to her finger tips, they twitched as I touched them, her hand turned to hold onto mine. Who is this girl? How does she bring out this other side of me? I finally fell asleep, one arm wrapped around her body the other holding her hand.When I woke in the morning she was turned away from me as I was behi

Chloe's POV 'What do I do Chloe? Do you go to them? We are a part of their pack, we marked Lucas, I want to stay with Alaric though, mark him' 'Shift me back! NOW!' we shifted back instantly, Alarics look of surprise was unforgettable. "If I go to them, they may stop attacking, they are hear for me" panic in my voice. 'Chloe!? Where are you? I'm coming for you my love!' Lucas was in my head suddenly sending a shiver down my spine, Goddess I missed his voice, woah, shake that out of your head girl."You would go to them because you love him too" Alaric's eyes were expressionless, back like they used to be when I first got here "I'd go to save everyone including you, them also, no one should die if I can stop it" He looked down at me anger overtaking him, that raw animalistic feeling seeping out of him, I could feel it all. He started to shift when I grabbed his hand, he stopped and turned back to himself when I jumped up on him, completely aware that I was ful
