My heart was racing as was my mind. All the things that I wanted Harry to do to me were swarming my thoughts. We've been quiet the whole ride back to Shadow and with the lack of attention Harry is giving me, I fear he has changed his mind about touching me. If that's even what he was aiming towards. He never actually said that we were going back to Shadow for that reason, but I hope we are.

I glance over to him. He is staring out the window, playing with the rings on his finger. I want to say something, anything, but I don't have the nerve. We pull up to Shadow and Harry opens up the door for himself right when Henry stops. He jumps out and sticks his hand back in the car to take a grasp of me. His face looks hungry when I look up to him and a smirk plays on his face when he places his hand on my butt, to help me out of the car. I feel it slightly glide up and I gasp when my dress rises too high. He shuts the door before bringing me close to him. His lips find my ear, "Oh, the things I'm going to do."

My stomach flips and my insides clench. I look at him surprised by his words and he only laughs before grabbing my forearm. So, maybe we are here for that reason. All the excitement is built in my stomach. I follow his grip up the stairs towards the front doors. We rush down the hallways and I can feel Harry's eagerness to get to my room. I can't say I don't want to get there faster either. I'm a little nervous because I don't know what he will do. Plus, I'm not really expierenced in that feild.

Our bodies rush to the elevators and Harry bites his lip while looking down at me. We wait for the elevator doors to open. Before we could step inside the opening doors, Zayn's familiar voice echos to my ears.

"Master Harry!"

We both flip our bodies around and find Zayn sprinting towards us. I hear Harry let out a low groan before releasing his grip on me.

"What is it?" He spits.

"A fight broke out and it's bad. We need you." Zayn sounds out of breath and flustered.

"Send them to the Drainers, I don't care. I have things to do" Harry answers and turns around, pulling me into the elevator with him. Zayn steps forward and stops the elevator from closing with his hand.

"Sir, you need to come." His voice sounds urgent.

"You can handle it your damn self, or have Jack stop the fight, since you're not man enough." Harry's voice raises and I can tell he is angry. He hits the elevator button and lets out an annoyed huff. "Now, go. I have more important things to do."

"Sir, it's Gemma." I expected Harry to yell at Zayn again, but instead he stays quiet. I look over to him and notice his nostrills flared. He looks hesitant to exit the elevator, but does it anyway. I look at him confused and I almost feel hurt for him ditching out on me. Who is this Gemma girl and what makes her more important than spending time with me. I hate the stupid feeling of jealously I have right now.

"Ellie, please go to your room. I'm trusting you. Don't make me regret it."

As the elevator doors close with only me inside, I slowly hear Harry's voice fade, telling Zayn to take him to Gemma. I'm happy that Harry trusts me to walk alone, but I'm still upset he's leaving. I really wanted to spend time with him.

I push my floor and the elevator begins to move up to my floor. It's stops on the L.S floor and I frown before looking down as making sure I presses the right button. I did, so somebody must have called the elevator before I could make it to my floor.

I'm proved right when the doors open and a body comes to view. At first I see white shoes and when I look up to their face, my mouth gapes open in surprise.

"Louis!?" I gasp in disbelief. He realizes it's me and he runs into the elevator before opening his arms. We hug for a second and I push him away from me when Harry's words play through my mind. I remember him saying that I can't see Louis or talk to him if I want him to stay at Shadow.

Louis doesn't realize me pushing away and instead asks me a question, "How has everything been? I know things kind of went downhill didn't it?" He looks down at his feet and the elevator doors close before moving up to my floor.

"Yea, they did. Listen Louis..." I begin to try an tell him I can't speak to him, but he cuts me off.

"Where's Esmay? I was stuck in cells until two days ago and I haven't asked anyone. I was too afraid." He tells me and I feel bad that he had to stay down in the cells for that long. I look down, afraid to answer his question. I don't want to tell him Esmay's dead because I don't want to even hear the words and I don't want Louis to feel bad, like I did.

"Louis...." I look up to him and he looks worried. The doors open, but neither of us step out. He places his hand on my arm.

"Is she okay?" The look on his face upsets me. I know he can tell I'm bout to tell him that she's dead, but I just don't think I can do it.

"Yea, she's fine." I lie before I can stop myself. Ugh, making things more difficult Ellie. His face lights up with hope and I know it's bad to lie, but I'm not aloud to see him anyways, so I'll just let him keep thinking she's okay. "She's not at Shadow, but she's okay." I continue with my lie and he looks upset when I tell him she's not here.

I want to ask Louis so many questions like what happened after the party or even if he's heard or seen Liam at all. I still want Harry to find Liam, so he can punish him. I know he's girlfriend died because of me, but I can't help but hate him because he killed my sister for no reason at all. I step out of the elevators and try to ease away from Louis enforce anyone sees us together and tells Harry. I don't want him to be mad at me and loose his trust on me, or punish Louis again.

"I should go. We really shouldn't be talking." I almost whisper.

"I know. Master told me to stay away from you." He scratches the back of his head. So, Harry did tell him. He's one risky man with all the things he does. First bringing me back to Esmay and now talking to me when he knows he can't. I wonder why he's so nice to me.

"Can we talk though? Just for a little. I mean, nobody has to know." He laughs, but I shake my head. I don't want anything else bad to happen and talking to him would result in that.

He nods his head, understanding. I wave goodbye to him and he looks down upset as the doors close. I feel bad for saying, no, but it's for the best.

My room is luckily unlocked when I get there. I open the door and hear sobbing coming from inside. I grow puzzled and complete my entry to my room. My eyes meet Ruby's as she's sitting on my bed. Her eyes are red from crying and she runs to me before squeezing me in a hug.

"What's wrong?" I ask concerned. I wonder is something has happened to Niall!

"Something happened. Everything is going to be ruined."

I can already feel the stress and worry building on my shoulders. I totally forgot that Niall and Ruby were leaving and soon I'll have to distract Harry. I wait for Ruby to give me an answer. This has to be the worst time for something to happen. Harry might be coming to my room any minute and now I have to help Ruby.

Go and read my other two books! I promise they are just as good if not better than Shadow! I really want to know what you guys think!
