IZZY'S POV:

I wake up during the night. I rubs my eyes and turn to look at the clock. 2:30 AM. Why did I wake up? I look out the window and see it's started to snow. I get up from the bed. A child makes it's into my skin, making me shake. I look down at my body and see that I'm naked. I totally forgot that I was naked. why am I naked again? Oh yeah that's right! I felt weak. 

I move around a little. I still do feel weak. I feel like my legs could collapse any minute actually. What's wrong with me? Why is body going out of control? 

I move around the room to get my gown.

"Nice body."

I stop in my tracks. The hairs on my arms raise as a chill racks my body, my heart is beating against my chest as I turn to see two black eyes. A man that's standing in the shadows.

"Yes, I think you'll be quite nice."

"Who...'who are you?"

Suddenly out of no where, he appears right in front of me, "I'm your worst nightmare."

He grabs me. I try to get out of his hold, but he's too strong. I feel his hands move up and down my body...touching it.

"Please don't!" I sob.

Where is Xander? I try to scream for my mate, but the man's hand is over my mouth. I see him grab a knife. I feel my blood running cold. Please no no no no NO! I scream in my mind. 

"I will do to you, what he did to me." He says, "I'm going to kill the two most important people in his life. Everything taken from him...in a second."

Two people? What is he talking about? It's just me...isn't it?  I look down at my stomach at the realization...no...it can't be. NO! But before it's too late. I feel the knife pierce me and my baby. I feel the knife sucking my life away as this pain courses through my body.

"XANDER!" I scream with all of my strength. But I already feel my life slipping from my body. Before I know it...everything goes black as I slip away from my life. 

I wake up in a panic. I look around the room. everything is as it should. I collapse back on my bed and sigh in relief. It was just a dream. I look outside. It's still night time. The snow has finally come. It's coming hard. I look at the time 2:30 AM. I still feel shaky from my dream. It was so realistic. I feel so weak still...like something is using all of my energy. I turn to snuggle into Xander, but he's not there. Where is he? has he been gone this whole time?

Worry eats me slowly for my mate. Is he okay? Is he really that stressed that he can't sleep? I get out of my bed. On shaky legs I slowly get my night gown and wrap it around my naked form. I breath heavily as I force my body with all my strength to find Xander.

I hold on to the rails tightly as I walk down the stairs. I look in his office. It's locked which means he isn't in there. Ugh! Where could he be? I look down the hall. I see there's light seeping through the crack in the door of the living room. I take a deep breath before trying to making my way towards the living room. I hear whispers. I frown. Maybe him and Soul or Noah were talking about pack stuff? I open the door slightly and peak through the crack. 

I couldn't believe what I saw. Xander was kissing...LANA!!! And it doesn't even look like a simple kiss. He's kissing her so...passionately. Her arms are wrapped around his neck, her fingers are griping is hair and his arms are rubbing up and down her back as he kisses her as if he, as if...as if she was everything to him. I hear her moan. 

My heart totally, utterly, undeniably breaks. I feel like everything in my life has fallen a part. All the strength that was left in myself was gone. There was no reason for me to live. My eyes fill with tears and my lips quiver harshly. I try to be quiet, but I couldn't help the sob that escapes my mouth. 

They break their kiss. I look into Xander's eyes...eyes that I once loved. I see shock and guilt. I never even thought he would do this to me. 

"Izzy...sweetheart it's not what it looks like." He says. His breath was ragged from kissing Lana. My vision turns to her and I see her smiling at me with pure evil. I'm filled with complete. and Total FURY. I make no attempt to stop my wolf from rising, in fact I push her out and let her take control. 

I run towards the whore and tackle her to the ground. I straddle her waist and rain punches on her face. 

"I."

punch

"Said."

Punch

"To stay."

Punch. Punch.

"Away."

Punch.

"From him."

Punch Punch Punch.

I feel someone wrap their arms around my waist and pull me off of her. "Let go of me!" I scream. I get out of their hold and turn around. I'm met with Xander. He opens his mouth to say something, but before he does I knee him in the balls. Xander groans a bit and cups his injury. "Shit!" but it doesn't look like it hurt as much as I want it to. 

I turn back to Lana, completely blind with rage, and see her trying to get up. 

I grab her head and say, "I told you I'd kill you." I twist her head until there was a pop. I drop her limp body on the ground. I look at her face. Her plain face with such hate. 

Everything happened so fast. "Izzy?" A deep sadness rips my heart a part. I have no strength left. I collapse onto the ground and sob my heart out. I scratch my chest, hoping to dig out this deep hurt that rests on my chest. But I feel no better. 

"WHY??" I scream and sob. I look up at Xander and see in his eyes how hurt he is for seeing me like this. He takes a step towards me but I crawl backwards, "I Trusted you."

"Izzy, it's not what you think, just let me-"

"Explain?" I finish. He was the one person I trusted the most out of this whole trouble. He was my source to keep going, my drive. But now he's no different than the others. I have no one. No family. NO ONE!

"Stay away from me." I whisper. 

I stand up on shaky legs. Xander notices how weak I am. He frowns in concern and takes another step towards me, "Izzy what's wrong?"

"I needed you...and you weren't there. You were here...with her...I hate you Xander Nightwalker. I HATE YOU!" I sob.

I see him flinch. I know that this was tearing him a part too. Good. I hope it hurts as much as it hurts me. I couldn't look at him any longer. I couldn't be here any longer. I feel suffocated in this place now. I feel empty. I don't care anymore. Let this rogue man take me. 

I run away from Xander and jump out the door. "ELIZABETH!" Xander shouts.

I am instantly hit with this ice air and snow hitting me. My whole body is chilled to the bone. There is no room for warmth. I sprint through the snow storm, towards the forest. Each step I take come with a sob. Why does everything good in my life always turn bad? I know that my mate is running after me, but he won't be able to see me through this storm or smell me from how rough the wind is.

I run in the forest. I can't feel my feet and my body is going totally numb. I sprint past trees and bushes, covered in white. I don't see a tree root on ground, so I trip and fall. I sob harder.

I curl up in a ball, "Why do you do this to me?" I ask the moon goddess. I stand up on my knees and look at the dark sky, "WHY DO YOU DO THIS TO ME? WHAT HAVE I DONE TO DESERVE THIS!" I scream.

I hear a twig snap. I turn around, but it's too late. a black figure grabs a hold of me. I struggle against them but I'm too weak. Another figure comes holding a thick branch. He swings it towards me. Everything goes black.

XANDER'S POV:

I run after my mate as she sprints into the snow storm. She's running fast. I run harder and harder, trying to get to her. But I can't see her. I try to use my sense of smell to find her, but I can't smell her scent either. I've lost her. I stop running and search the area. "IZZY!" I shout.

"IZZY!" I shout again.

No no no no no NNOOO! This can't be happening, please tell me this can't be happening. My heart is beating harder and harder against my chest as I panic. My mate is sick and weak and alone out there somewhere while there's a maniac trying to get her. 

I yell at the sky with all of my might. I yell at the moon goddess for taking my love away. 

I get back to the house before I freeze. I close the door and walk into the living room towards the fire place. I can still hear my mate's heart breaking sob. When she saw what I was doing...her eyes were filled with so much pain. It broke me. What's worse was that it was my fault. I thought I was doing this for her. But it was Lana's plan all along. She wanted Izzy to catch us. She knew that Izzy would leave and now I can't find her. 

My heart is hollow. I can't believe that I failed her. I clench my jaw. I look over at Lana's dead body. Her blank stare. I am instantly filled with so much rage. 

"You did this. You took her from me!" I yell. I stand up and flip the couch. I destroy everything in the room. Something shiny catches my eye. I look down. I bend to my knees and pick up Izzy's wedding ring. She either purposely took it off, or it fell off. No, I refuse to let her go. She needs to know the truth. I stand up with determination. I run out of the door and into the storm.

I try to use all of my senses at once to try and pin point where she went. I keep running against the raging wind until I come to the forest. It's not too bad in here. I run and run until my nose tingles as a scent hits me. I stop running and starts sniffing. I smell my mate's delicious scent. But I growl when I smell two others. I look at the ground. The dirt and snow are all mixed together. She was struggling. I see some faded foot prints that pressed into the ground. My eyes catch a branch that has blood on it. Please, please, please tell me its not her's. I bend down sniff the blood. I close my eyes. NO! Pure rage fills me from the inside out.

"NNOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!" I scream with all of my might. They have her, they have my mate, my one love, my everything...they have my very heart in their grasps. 

This isn't over. "I will find you my love. I will do EVERYTHING in my power to find you and I will use to the rest of my days to love you. I promise...I promise I will find you...or I'll die trying"
