It was all a blur for Eden. She passed out as soon as she felt her boyfriend's arms catch her. She was losing blood quickly. Alec cursed out loud, seeing Eden like this hurt him too, a lot more than he thought. But Kai wasn't in the right state of mind right now, so he had to take over. As soon as Malakai had come to his senses again, he picked up the blond haired girl and rushed her to the infirmary. Astrid ran to her side, trying to stop the blood. Another nurse attended to Ethan. "Kai, please, we need you to leave. We can't work like this." The nurse had said, and Astrid agreed. "Yeah, Malakai. Sorry, but we need you out." Astrid said and motioned for Alec and Aiden to get him out. It was hard to get him out, but they managed to somehow. The raven haired house paced the halls outside the infirmary, head in his hands as he kept cursing. He turned to Alec, who could so clearly see the pure pain visible in his eyes. Eden was shot, but Malakai felt like he was the one who was d

It seemed Malakai had realised he needed to do something. He suddenly burst into his own office where Alec was sitting, Aiden and Astrid were also there. They all looked shocked. Normally it would be so difficult to even get him out of the room and away from Eden. "Kai?" Aiden called out. He was just as concerned as Malakai, but Malakai just a little more. "I want him dead. I don't care how but he needs to be in hell" Malakai said in a dark voice that would send shivers down anyone's spine. The look in his eyes, not something to be messed with. Of course the others knew who he was referring to. They had been trying to track him down. "We're already looking at Malakai. It's all Alec and I have been doing. We'll find him" Aiden said to the elder. Malakai sighed and sat down at his desk. He couldn't bear to see Eden in that state any longer or he would've gone insane. He looked around the room and knew the others had things to say but he couldn't be bothered to answer. "

"Sienna and Eric were talking about their wedding venue. They were thinking about the huge garden in the back of Kai’s manor." The said couple looked at her in disappointment. "I feel betrayed. It was supposed to be a surprise." Sienna said with a pout. "Alec was talking about moving away somewhere and......" he was cut off as Alec covered her mouth with his hand and nervously looked at Malakai. "That's enough, don't you think Eden?" Alec looked at her, also in betrayal. Eden just laughed and removed his hand. Alec looked at Malakai waiting, for what? He had no idea. "And when were you going to tell me?" Malakai finally said and Alec suddenly found the wall behind them veeeery interesting. Malakai sighed and decided he'd talk later. "Kai said you um, found Elijah and Serena. Is that true?" She looked hopefully at everyone and they all nodded. Eden was relieved, but at the same time, she didn't know how to feel. Did she want them dead, or let them go? "We're still comin

"We'll find out who did this. And we'll stop them from doing it again. I know I haven't formally met the two yet but if they mean the world to you, then they're important to me too." Malakai said to Eden as he hugged him. He had met them when they came to check on Eden when she got shot, and he met Sienna the night Eden got kidnapped, but he had never formally met them, he’d only seen Eric once, and they were not introduced to each other then. "Thank you." Eden whispered. She trusted Malakai to do what he said he would, he'd make sure of it. "You want to meet them?" Eden asked suddenly and broke from the hug. "Right now? Only one is conscious Eden. No offence." Malakai said and Eden rolled her eyes. "I was supposed to arrange something for all of you to meet but, you can at least meet my cousin." Eden said with a pout and Malakai just couldn't say no. It would be illegal to say no to a face like that. "Fine." He said and Eden jumped in joy. She got off the desk and dragged

"Eden?" Malakai said and the other hummed in response. "Have you ever... tried to contact your parents again?" Malakai asked. He wanted to know but he also didn't want to be overstepping. "No." Eden simply said after some silence. "Is there a reason?" Malakai asked again carefully and Eden shrugged. "They kicked me out because I suddenly wasn't their daughter anymore Malakai, why would I want to contact them." Eden said. It wasn't really a question, it was more of a fact. She wasn't going to contact people that clearly wanted nothing to do with her. "I don't know if it's the same thing, Eden, but I would contact mine again. If I could, that is. But not because I'd miss them. Because I want to throw it in their faces how far I've come without them. I'd love to contact them just to tell them how much they ruined my life. And I know that's not very encouraging, but have you ever wondered how your parents were? If they're okay and stuff." Malakai explained and Eden thought about
