Recap:

I pulled him away and punched him in his jaw, I kept on punching him till he passed out. I turned to see if the woman was okay and I saw

Zya.

Zya's P.O.V

"Leo" I gasped and ran into his arms, he seemed to have overcome his shock and hugged me back. "Zya, are you? Where have you been? We have been worried sick" he asked holding me tight like he couldn't believe I was real.

"It's a long story" I said and he pulled me into another hug. "Hey Zya I've bee-" Nico said as soon as he entered the balcony but stopped when he saw Leo.

"Who is he" Leo asked me "Uhmm Leo this is Nico and Nico this is Leo" I introduced them. "Was he the one who took you" Leo asked and his face hardened "No, well yes you see it's complicated" I said not knowing how to explain.

"Why is it complicated" Leo asked with a raised eyebrow and I looked at Nico for help but he was looking amused and expectant of what I had to say.

Asshole! He's the one who kidnapped me.

Why are you covering for him then Erin asked.

I don't know I replied.

Of course you don't she said rolling her eyes.

I decided to shut her out cause she was becoming annoying.

"Uhmm you see how about we seat down cause this is probably going to be a lot to take in" I said still trying to figure out what I should say while Nico looked like he was having the time of his life.

I glared at him and a thought entered my mind hopefully he would play along. "He actually helped me" I said and Nico looked at me obviously interested "He did? How" Leo asked.

"See I got involved in a accident and he helped me" I said and Leo nodded and when I thought the questions were over he asked me the question I was avoiding.

"Why are you still with him then" he asked and I looked at Nico hoping he would help me with this one but he just crossed his legs and smirked.

I've never wanted to kill someone as bad as I wanted to kill him. "Like I said before he helped me but after I got better he thought the accident was planned" I said the first thing that entered my mind

"Planned? Who would want to kill you" Leo asked "Apparently some people" I said trying to divert his mind from my lie.

Nico looked even more amused than before and I wanted to strangle him so bad but I couldn't cause Leo was there.

"Well you can come back home now that we know you're alive" Leo said, I was about to agree when for the first time Nico talked.

"I think she would be better off staying with me" Nico said "Why" Leo asked and they had a little staring contest before Nico answered.

"As she already said people are after her and she is safe with me" Nico said, Leo seemed to think about it and nodded "Okay but the others have the right to know she's alive" Leo said and after a while Nico nodded.

"You guys can't just make a decision about me without including me" I said angry "Well we just did" Nico said and left the balcony. I glared at Leo "You need to be safe and since you are still alive he's doing a very good job" Leo said and I wished I didn't make up that lie.

At least you still get to be with Aiden Erin said and I agreed.

I finally noticed the man Leo beat up still passed out on the floor but Leo didn't seem to care. We both left the balcony and went back to the party.

"Hey where have you been" Aiden asked as he walked up to me breathing heavily like he has been running.

"I just went out to the balcony" I said and he nodded "Who's your friend" Aiden asked looking at Leo. "This is Leo, Leo this is Nico's brother Aiden" I said and they nodded at each other.

"I have to go now, I can tell the others you're okay right" Leo asked and I nodded "Don't tell them ab-" I started but he interrupted me "I won't" He said with a reassuring smile. I smiled back and hugged him and he left.

"What was that all about" Aiden asked "What do you mean" I asked confused "What don't you want him to talk about" he clarified "It's a long story" I said and he raised his eyebrow but he didn't say anything.

"Are you ready to go" He asked and I nodded, we got outside but we were using another car, I guess he must have sensed my confusion cause he said "Nico's not coming with us so I had my car delivered" I nodded and entered the car but I felt someone staring at me I looked around but I didn't see anyone.

It's probably just my imagination I thought.

Unknown's P.O.V

"I can't believe she's still alive" I said angry "At least we know where she is" My father said and I nodded "This is where you come in son, don't fail me" He said "I won't dad" I said and he looked lost in thought.

"I want her dead in a month" he said looking at the cause of all our problems "She won't suspect me" I said and watched as she drove away.
