"Where are you going?" Adrian asked as he saw Jayda getting dressed. " I have to go to work" she answered. " I don't think that that is a good idea" " don't worry about me .I'm good,nothing is going to happen " " you don't know that" " stop worrying, that guy clearly did not look like he wanted to kill me." Adrian stared at her ," you believe him" "I don't even know what to believe anymore. I think I just need time away from all this. I need time to think ,I need to get away from all this" " you need to get away from me?" " that is not what I said " " can i atleast follow you" " no, you can't " " jatyda,its not safe out there " " so far, nothing has happened " " listen to me,we are not safe here. You are not safe here." " you said I was a hybrid right. I would like to see how I react when I face danger. I should start fighting for me. I can't keep relying on you or any other person " " jayda, come on' 'Adrian please, let me do this. I just need to be alone today' 'Ok' He said . ' and don't follow me' she interjected. ' I won't ' They both knew he was lying. Jayda left the house leaving him standing shirtless at the front door staring after her. He did not go in until he had seen her take a cab. He quickly went in and got dressed. He would take a look around first before heading to her workplace. He wanted to be sure Cade was not around somewhere. Immediately he opened the front door,he came face to face with Cade. " going somewhere " Adrian quickly got over his shock as he swung his fist at Cade,sending him reeling back. Adrian quickly grabbed him by the collar and drew him inside the house. Cade was not surprised but he was caught off guard. Adrian and him were so engrossed in their cat fight that they did not care that they were crashing and thrashing jayda's property and destroying her house. They were both bleeding in different places because they kept scratching at each other. Cade finally got the upper hand ,and he reached for the big ceramic plant pot by the door and smashed it on Adrian's head. The weight of the pot was enough to end any mortal. Adrian fell to his knees,blood gushing down his face. His lifeless eyes stared in to space as he fell face first on the carpet,dead. Cade left him there and bolted. He went to Jayda's office, and waited. He planned to kidnap her and get her away from there as fast as possible. Adrian suddenly opened his eyes an hour later. The first thing that came to his mind was Jayda. He quickly got up and felt his head. The wound had healed but he still had a terrible headache. He went to the bathroom and washed up. He cleaned up the house and threw out whatever was broken. He left the house and headed for the publishing house. He spotted Cade standing guard in front of the building where jayda worked. He looked around and found somewhere to hide as he kept his eyes closely on Cade. Cade was also on the lookout making sure Adrian was not anywhere near. They both waited,eyes watchful. When they saw people start exiting the building, they both knew it was only a matter of time before jayda walked out of the door in to the open streets. They both became alert and extra careful. Jayda totally unaware, strolled out of the building sighing deeply as she thought about the second round of argument she was about to have with Adrian again. She even suspected that he was somewhere nearby, keeping an eye on her. She was so unsuspecting and rather shocked as a huge hand grabbed hers immediately she came outside. The strange hand held hers and pulled her along as they manoeuvred the crowd hand in hand. It happened so fast that she could only make out the back of his head and his black trench coat. He led her to an empty alley. When she saw the outline of his back clearly, even without seeing his face she knew it was not Adrian. She quickly snatched her hand away and stopped. He turned to look at her. " what do you think you're doing?" Jayda asked him as calmly as she could , hardly suppressing her rage. " getting you to safety" She scoffed " why should I trust what you say?" " I did not ask you to trust me. Did I?" Cade answered cockily. The arrogant bastard jayda thought as she glared at him. He glared back at her. Something was not right she thought. Even though she doubted what he was saying, she still stood there as though she needed more conviction. She had the urge to ask him to prove what he was saying. But that would mean distrusting Adrian , and she did trust him. But why was he not attacking her. Why was he not changing in to a big bad wolf and eat her. Did he know what she was? Did he know she was the hybrid? He must know something. " why do you need to get me to safety?" She asked monitoring him closely. " because your life is in danger " " danger of whom or what?" " I can't get in to all that detail here. We would need to get to somewhere safe before I can explain anything further to you " " you might as well forget about it. I am not going anywhere with you " " your boyfriend might be on his way here right now. We need to be on our way" and he tried to grab her hand..... she moved away from his grip. " I am not going anywhere until you tell me what is going on" " we can talk about it when we are somewhere safe" " I don't even feel safe around you" " I might have to tie you up then" " you wouldn't dare" she said as she gave him a very stern look. Cade gave her his one sided cocky smile. " feisty much" he said. They were both so lost in their eye staring contest and internal battle that they did not notice Adrian sneak up on them. Jayda was staring at Cade's handsome face and all of a sudden she saw his neck and head turn in an unusual way. She heard the snap sound, and his head twisted in a very ugly position. She saw him fall on his knees and collapse on the ground. She shook with fright. She could tell from the way his eyes rolled back in to his head that he was dead. She looked up to see Adrian staring at her. He went to her " are you OK?" He asked as he hugged her. Jayda too stunned to speak, just stared at him. " come on let's go " he said as he grabbed her hand and half pulled her as they ran from the murder scene. He almost carried her as she was a bit stiff legged and unable to walk fast. He stopped a cab and got in beside her as they headed home. He knew it was only a matter of time before cade came back and so he needed to act quick if he wanted to protect Jayda.
