I woke up a few days later in the hospital. I looked over and saw the IV's in my arms. "The last thing I remember is I was lying in a pool of my blood with a man that calls himself a soulchaser." I said to myself.

    A nurse came in to check on me. "I see you're up." she said checking my IV's.

    "Excuse me, how did I get here?" I asked her.

    "Well, miss someone found you lying a curb in front of this hospital without ID, or anything." she said to me.

    "Thank you." I said setting up on bed.

    "Madam we were unable to save her." the nurse said to me. "Whose her?" I asked her. "You're baby madam." she said. "Oh my God noooooooooooo!" I cried. "I'm sorry madam." the nurse said trying to comfort me. "I'll go get the doctor for miss. " the nurse added leaving the room.

    Thoughts ran through my mind and my heart hardard against my ex boyfriend. "How could he kill me and did he not know I was carrying his child?" I asked myself over and over again.

    Unnoticebale to me I was being watched. Being watched by the Soulchaser and he was sitting on the vent system above my room. His eyes were red to see and hear me. His thoughts were on me and he could not think about anything else. "Why now, why her?" he asked hisself. "No mortal woman has ever affected me like just before." he said to himself. "There's something about her but I can't put on finger on it." he added.

    I laid in my hospital bed crying and moaning over the lost of my baby. Soon after the doctor walked in and checked everything."I'm going to release early this afternoon miss. Do have anyone that could pick you up?" the doctor asked me. "No, none." said to him. "All my family members do not talk to me anymore." I added.

    "I see." said the doctor. "Also, miss, there was a man asking about you. " he added.

    "What'd he look like?" I asked him.

    "He seemed to be tall, as a giant, and he wore a leather outfit. Numerous had tats on his arms, his hair is the same color of yours but darker." the doctor said. "Do you know him?" he asked me.

    "No, but was he the one who brought me to this hosptail?" I asked the doctor.

    "Maybe." the doctor said.

    The doctor walked out of my room, and gave me my release papers to get out of the hospital. After signing the papers and getting dressed I walked out of the hospital. In search of this soulchaser who appeared to save my life. As I left the hospital I could feel someone watching me, and everytime I turned around I saw none watching me. But someone was watching me. Soulchaser.

    I walked the 2 blocks to my apartment and walked up two flights of steps to get to my apartment door. "Shit!" I said not having my keys. "Great just great." I said to myself.

    "Looking for this?" a deep voice said.

    I turned around to myself face to face with him. "Where did you find that?" I asked him putting my hands on my hips.

    "After you blacked out I found it right beside you." he said.

    "May I please have it back?" I asked him.

    "Maybe if you tell me why have you casted this spell on me?" he asked me.

    "What spell chaser?" I asked me.

    "This spell of having feelings for you." he told me.

    "Well, it's not a spell chaser. You have fallen in love with me." I said to him. I watched his eyes grow big as saucers and then darkened. I stepped back from him as he walked closer to me. He was only inches from me I could smell his breathe. He put both of us hands on either side of me and he stepped closer to me. I found myself pressed against the door of my apartment.

    Without warning he lowered his lips to mine for a kiss. My body was betraying me and I had no control over it. He pulled from me and looked into my eyes. To say the least I was left breathless would have been an understatement. Finally finding my voice and said "Why in the hell did you kiss me?" I asked him with my arms across my chest.

    "Well, I wanted to kiss these lips and see if they were as sweet as they say." soulchaser said to me staring a hole in me.

    "OK what is it that you want with me?" I asked him.

    "Well, it's not what I want from you but it's what I want you do for me." he said confusing me.

    "I'm afraid I don't understand chaser." I said to him.

    "It's very simple I want you to be mine forever." he said to me. When he said that I wanted to faint or just disappear off the face of the earth.

    "Let me get this right, you want me to be your bride, or something like that?" I stated to him.

    "Yes, exactly." he said pulling out something from his pocket. He pulled out what appeared to me to be a ring or some kind. He walked toward me and knelt before me. "Would you be mine for all etenity?" he asked me.

    I was shocked to say the least and I did not even think about it. "Yes," I said to him. He placed the ring on my finger and pulled me into his arms. Then a red light consumed us and transport me with him to place I've ever never seen before.
