I want to dedicate this chap to MeghnaSharma2 who made a deal with me but Meghna it maybe or may not be right I'm telling you. Enjoy.

Elisa's P.O.V

"Elisa, please for God's sake stop crying." Alec said for the 100th time but nothing could stop the tears that were escaping my tears and wetting his tux.

How can someone betray this way?

This was even worse case than my brother.

Alec was running his hands trough my back, trying to soothe me.

I pushed myself away from his chest and looked in his eyes through my blurry ones.

Alec palmed my cheek with his hand and looked at me with pained expression.

"Tell me littleone, what is it? I swear I will help you in every way possible, just stop crying." He said, wiping the tears as more made their way.

He will never believe me.

He will never believe if I tell him who wants to kill us.

"A-Alec..." I said trough hoarse voice and tried clear my throat.

"Yes, littleone. Tell me." He said and kissed my forehead.

"P-Please take me back to h-home." I said and tried to control my tears to no avail.

"I can't take you back Elisa--"

"I w-want to go back to castle. Please." I said crying more.

"Shh..sh... I thought you wanted to go back to Kate. Yes, of course we'll go back." He said and picked me up in his arms.

He secured me in his car as I played the events of that night back in my mind.

Flashback.

I felt someone picking me up and these hands were cold and not warm like Alec's.

I tried to scream but a hooded person covered my mouth as I trashed around.

The person went to the window with me in those arms.

No! He/she was going to jump from the window.

I kicked and bit that person's palm. The hooded person hissed and slapped me so hard across my cheek that black spots covered my vision and I fell in those arms.

"Bitch." The voice came as though coming from underwater

The smell of soil indicated that I was no longer in Alec's room but in the arms of some person.

I kept quiet and tried to slow down my thumping heart.

"No use of pretending Jewel." A man's voice said.

For some reason this voice was sounding so familiar yet not familiar enough to click the image of that man in my mind.

"W-Where are you taking me?" I asked shuttering.

There was no use of trashing around and I can't even use my powers because that man has tied my wrists.

"To the gates of hell." He said.

"What do mean?" I asked. I was so scared.

I can't even call out to Alec with my special scream because this man can make me pass out again and I won't be able to defend myself.

"Isn't that a place where all the bitches go when they die?" He mocked and started laughing.

A laughter so evil that it took all in me to not yell out for Alec.

"What have I ever done to you?" I asked as tears streamed down my face.

"Now why do you want to know that when you're going to end up dying. Savour your last moments, breathe the air for last time." He said. He was insane.

"You were the one who unscrewed the chandelier that night." I stated out.

"Yes. You were supposed to die that night Jewel and so was Alec but you had to save him don't you? And even that son of bitch saved you when I directed that chandelier to you. I so wanted to stake him that moment." He hissed making me flinch.

"You were supposed to be crushed under it but you didn't. Now be a good girl, Jewel and die fast so that I can proceed my plan of killing Alec, though I wonder if the loss of you would kill him already."

As if on cue the wolves howled and I whimpered. Alec where are you?

"Time to say goodbye Jewel, any last wishes? Though I won't grant them--"

Suddenly his hood got struck in the branch, revealing his face and I gasped.

No. It's not possible.

"Oh my God! How could you do this? Alec--"

"Shut up bitch or I swear I will make your death even more torturous than it already is." He said, dropping me to the ground.

"Hmm...I need to compel you, who knows that fucking Alec might come here when you're still in the process of dying. After all I want to be the one to break the news while killing him that I was the one who killed his fucking beloved mate and feel the fun while watching his face as it will go from shock to betrayal and then cursing. You're not allowed to be a party crasher." He said as I scurried back.

"No please. How could you do this? Alec--"

He grabbed my hair roughly, hauling me up and made me look in his eyes.

"Too bad Jewel that I had to kill you. Believe me I wanted to fuck you hard but we all have to make little sacrifices to gain something big. Forget that you saw my face, forget everything , from me coming in your room and kidnapping you, forget that you ever had this conversation with me. Die a torturous death bitch and land only in hell."

I could feel my memories going in a corner of my mind and shutting behind a door as I felt my eyes shutting down, forgetting the events and awaiting my death.

Flashback over.
*****

"Elisa?" I felt someone shaking my shoulder and came out of trance to find  Alec looking at me with a concern.

"We're here." He said and held out his hand.

I found myself in the passenger seat of his car to look that we've already arrived to the castle.

My hands were shaking when I took Alec's hand, which he noticed with a frown on his face.

I felt so warm yet so cold at the same time. Alec's hand was providing me his warmth but the betrayal of that man made me shiver with cold.

I looked up at Alec to see that he was glancing at me too.

We just stared at each other and I so wanted to confide in him that I found out who betrayed us.

"Elisa what's wrong with you?" He asked me.

"In the room." I said as I contemplated what to tell him.

I know he wouldn't let this go.

So I decided to tell him the truth.

When we reached his room, he turned to me.

I was twitching my fingers and found that the marble floor was looking way more interesting.

He came close to me and tilted my chin up.

I could already feel the tears burn behind my eyes.

"You remember don't you?" He asked as hot trail of tears fell down my cheeks.

I nodded my head, "Tell me." He said.

"That person came through the door, I tried so hard to call you but he kept me from screaming out and slapped me so hard that I passed out." I said between the sobs and saw his fists cleanching.

I continued, "At sometime I woke up to find someone taking me deep in the woods, I asked the hooded person if he/she was the same one who tried to kill us both with that chandelier and that person agreed to it. I believe that it tried to kill me by sprawling oil on that step and mixing ambroisia in the soup to kill me." I finished with whacking sobs and Alec took me in his arms and hugged me.

"Who is that hooded figure? Do you remember his/her face?" He asked me the question I dreaded the most.

"I don't remember but it sounded like a man's voice. I don't remember his face." I finished crying even more.

"Shh...Elisa It's okay. Don't worry, you'll remember eventually. That man is gonna  die a death so painful, even more painful than that fucking brother of yours." He said and pulled back.

"He'll not come near you again Elisa. I'll protect you. But I have a feeling that there is something you're not telling me." He said.

I said nothing because he was so damn right.

"It's okay Elisa. If you don't want to tell me, it's fine. You can tell me whenever you want. Okay?" He said and I nodded my head.

I took his hand in mine and covered it with both my hands, "Do you trust me Alec?" I asked.

He looked confused by my sudden question then answered it in such a way that I might fall in love with him in this instance.

"With my life, Elisa."

I hugged him with as much strength as I can conjure up.

"Then please promise me two things Alec." I said.

He kissed my cheeck as I pulled back to look in his mesmerising grey eyes.

"I'm so scared Alec that he'll attack is again. Promise me that you won't leave my side every night, whatever the reason maybe. If you need to go somewhere then you'll wake me up no matter how deep asleep I am. Promise me--"

"I swear Elisa, I'll never leave you alone at night. You'll always stay by my side and please don't be scared littleone, he will never inflict harm to you while I'm beside you.I will not allow that to haopen." He said kissing my forehead.

I was quite relieved, this way I can keep my eye out on him and protect him.

I was so tired by today's events, but sleep assured me the nightmares that would follow--

"What's the other promise Elisa?" He asked  snapping me out of my thoughts.

"If you trust me with your life then promise me with my life that you'll never die and leave me alone. Promise me with my life that you'll always stay protected amd think before you give up on your life that if something happens to you then I'll die too because of your vow to me." I said and he looked at me with utter shock.

"Why?" He asked.

"Because I care, Alec Kincaid." I said simply.

He shook his head, "No Elisa. I can't promise you anything with your life at stake--"

"No! You have to. Please, don't say no please." I pleaded him as more tears gushed out at the thought of seeing his beautiful grey eyes, lifeless.

No no. Nothing like that will happen.

"Fine Elisa. I promise you not to die." He said half- heartedly.

I nodded my head and kissed him on his lips sealing the promise.

He kissed me with raw passion as I moaned out loud.

My hands went in his hair as his went behind my back.

His lips sucked mine and his tongue entered my mouth with force as I made a throaty voice.

He growled and pulled back to let me breath, "I'll never get enough of you my sweet Elisa."

And I'll never let you die Alec.

I now knew that I am falling for you slowly but I'll never let you know that because I know how much you hate the concept of love.

I'll protect you with everything I have in me Alec.

I trust you already and I so want to tell you who wants to kill us but I can't because it'll break our fragile bond that we've formed unknowingly.

You'll hate me if I tell you who did it and never believe me.

After all how could you believe me if I told you that your own Master Gilfred has betrayed you in such a horrible way.

How could I tell you that Master Gilfred is the one who wants to kill us and was the one who kidnapped me and left me in the woods.

How could I tell you that it is indeed Master Gilfred who back stabbed you. The one who you hold so dear to your heart, the one who is equivalent as your dad.

No Alec I can't tell you this because it will shatter your heart and fill you with l even more hatred.

But I swear Alec.

I swear that whatever it takes, I'll protect you with my life.
