Nathaniel "Nate" Sullivan

"No kidding. Allistair is going to him while Pasha gets Jennie to her place. Let me take you home, please."

"Allistair is going to get Brady? Oh, God. That should go well." I said sarcastically. "I'm fine Nate, really. But I can't stay here, I have to go. The others got away, I can too. Besides, there is someone I have to get out of Kampfer, she's....she's Autumn and Brady's daughter. They've hid her all this time because of your brother." I admitted to him, hating the thought of leaving him.

"Sky... please don't leave me. Please. If... if you are dead set on going, I am going with you."

"If you want to keep than you'll have to. I have to get her away from this place. I promised Dove and Brady I'd always look after her."

"Then we'll look after her together. I love you Sky, I mean that with all my heart, and where you go I go."

We hadn't seen Autumn Dove or Nicholai since that night. Sky was quiet, and I knew how worried she was about her sister. "Are you alright?" I asked as we finished dinner.

"I just have a lot on my mind...my family seems to be scattered everywhere." I sighed "They won't even let me in the prison to see Brady or Chad."

"I know baby. I'm so sorry all this is happening. I wish I knew what to do." I sighed, feeling helpless.

"We'll figure out something, I guess." I said, wishing like hell I could just split Nicholai in half with an arrow.

"Yes we will," I said and leaned over to kiss her softly.

I kissed him back gently "I'm not going to see any peace until this is all over."

"I know baby. But when it is, we're going to get so far away from here and never look back."

"I won't miss it. My Grandfather despised the way my parents raised Dove and I, if it wasn't for him we wouldn't know much of anything beyond luxury."

"I admit I don't know anything outside of luxury, but it's not something I cherish. I want to be with you, as long as you're by my side I'll never be unhappy."

"It's not your fault, Nate. When we leave here I can show you a few things."

I smiled at her. "Good thing I'm a quick learner. I want to take care of you."

"I know you do, and you will." I managed a smile.

I smiled back at her and put my hand on her cheek before kissing her softly again. "Is there anything you'd like to do today?"

I shook my head "I guess not, it's hard to enjoy anything lately."

"I know. Would you like to go see your sister? I know you don't want to be anywhere near Nicholai, and I don't want you to be either, but I can keep him occupied while you visit with her. I won't let him bother you."

I nodded "I'd like that very much."

"Then let's go," I said and took her hand, helping her to her feet.

"Do you think he'll agree to this?"

"He probably won't say much. He wants Dove to be happy, and this will give him more of an opportunity to tell me how foolish and weak of heart and will he thinks I am. One of his favorite past times."

I rolled my eyes "You know better than to listen to him, he's foolish."
