Elliot
"Run! Go go! Go now!" My lungs burned and my legs ached. Alex was griping my hand as we ran through the plains of Wyoming.
Bullets flew by, missing us by mere inches. "Stop!" One of the officers yelled as more bullets flew. We didn't stop, we pushed harder trying to get out of view which seemed close to impossible. Our guns long forgotten after swat had busted into our room a few weeks ago.
We had been being hunted by the FBI and we didn't even know it. So we ran. We ran hard and fast. We didn't stop or slow down even when I lost my shoe. We left everything behind, even Lia and Kaden.
We were fugitives on the run from the Feds and the mafia. Two people in love, desperate to get away from the mania around them. So would say we are crazy and to that I say, fuck yeah we are.

With two pistols and a knife strapped to my thigh by a garter, I pulled up the blood red dress. It was very long and puffed out with a slit on the side exposing my long legs. The top was lacy and strapless with flower like petals covering my breasts.
My hair was in loose curls with a braid down the middle. I had ruby pins throughout my hair. My make up was amazing and glamorous just like my 6 inch red heels.
The theme for the party was formal angels and demons so obviously I chose the demon queen. Some would suggest I went too far with the black crown on my head or the dragon jewelry I wore but I say it was just enough.
As I finished getting ready Alex walked through the door wearing a black and red suit that fit him perfectly showing off his toned stomach and obvious muscles. He also wore a black crown on his head to match my own as well as a dragon ring that curled around his finger. He also wore other rings and his nails were painted black and red to match our outfits. He kept his pinkies painted green even though I told him it was tacky the entire time I painted them. He just said he didn't care and kissed my face.
After I was finished gawking at the gorgeous man in front of me, I looked up to meet his eyes to see him already staring back at me. A smile played in my lips "well well well, Mr, Frost, don't you look absolutely dashing." He smirked and walked towards me placing his arms around my waist and pulling me against him. "Thank you darling. And you, Mrs. Frost, looks absolutely gorgeous as well." He gave me a light kiss at the lips and smiled at me. "A king of I have ever seen one."
"Remember Mrs. Frost, a king isn't fit without his queen."
He pulled away and held his hand out to me "Shall we?" I took his hand and grinned. "We shall."

We arrived at the ball room quite late as planned. It was a closed event for mafia members and dirty politicians or celebrities. We were here to make alliances with people who didn't work for Luca.
Luca was a bad man who was manipulative and conniving. Alex made it known to me after our first few days on the run that there was a lot more than me just finding my mom going on. He told me that Lia and Kaden were working for my mother and Luca and that they were in working hand in hand.
We walked up to the huge golden doors and the guard gave us a nod opening the door for us. The second we stepped inside it was like a domino affect. One person saw us and they pointed us out to another. Everyone's eyes trickled over to us examining us with wide eyes.
We had been all over every new station in the US for about a month. Our faces plastered on every corner with a big 'Wanted' it was hilarious to me but Alex didn't think so. He thought it was bad because everyone saw us all the time. We still had Rebel and Skip, they never left us. Every time we ran, they ran with us or Alex carried skip, Rebel ran. It was reckless and I was terrified something would happen to them but I couldn't trust anyone to take care of them.
A lean man and a short woman approached us. The woman had a fire in her eyes and the man looked like he had be through the ringer by the tiny woman.
"Hello, I'm Ajax and this is my wife Valentine." The man whom I now as Ajax said. Alex stretched his hand out to greet the man. "Alex." He shook the man and woman's hand and I did the same. "Elliot." Valentine had fiery red hair and blue eyes. Dark freckles littered her pale skin. They were dressed as devil and angel. Ajax wore an all black suit and Valentine wore a white skin tight dress that hugged her curves while also making her look innocent.
"You two seem to be causing mayhem." Ajax chuckled. I couldn't help but crack a smile. "I blame Alex. The man doesn't feed me so I have to go into public. I hate people."
"I do feed you, you are just a bottomless pit." I rolled my eyes and punched him in the arm. Valentine laughed. "We are gonna be great friends." By now everyone had gone back to their conversations, only sparing us a few glances.
"Coke one let's go to the bar." Valentine said as she grabbed my arm. I smiled and gave a quick kiss to Alex telling him I was leaving with Valentine.
We reached the bar and we ordered our drinks. Valentine got a sex on the beach and I just got whiskey on the rocks. I took a sip feeling the soothing burn flow down my throat and fill my chest.
"So tell me, where are you from?" She asked. "Well we are from the Carolinas but some shit happened and now we are fugitives." She nodded "How about you?"
"I'm from Kentucky but live in upstate New York. Ajax is too."
"How long have you guys been together?" Uh couldn't help but ask, they looked so in love and they looked great together. "We aren't married yet but we have been engaged for 3 months now." She showed me her diamond ring. "Damn girl. He really got lucky." She giggled "How long have you and Alex been together?" I softly smiled thinking about all of our time together.
"We aren't dating yet."
"Why not, if you don't mind me asking?"
" We have too much shit going on. Too many complications." She nodded in understanding. She reached into her clutch and pulled out a sleek black business card and handed it to me. "Here's the number to the office if you need anything." Seeing the confusion on my face she answered "I'm his PA but I've known him since we were born. We lived next door to each other our whole child and adult lives, our parents were best friends while we hated each other."
I could see in her face that she truly loved him and she was honestly a very genuine person.
We chatted for a bit longer until the guys walked back over to us. Val, like she told me to call her, and Ajax excused themselves to go mingle. "They seem like very good people." I nodded my head. "They are. Turns out the only reason they are here is because Ajax's uncle made a shifty deal. Valentine didn't seem to mind who we were though." I flashed the business card and he pulled his own from his pocket making me laugh.
"Come on let's dance and mingle." Alex said pulling me up from my seat at the bar.
We danced to a slow song and talked with some of the other people around. So far we had made an alliance of sort with quite a few people. As it turns out, Luca has been doing shady business and people aren't to pleased about it.
We spotted Val and Ajax a few more times and shared short chats with them.
"Testing testing." The sound of a mic buzzing and a mans voice filled the room. "Can I have everyone's attention please?" The chatter of the room came to a halt and everyone looked to the small raised platform. He was an older skinny man with greying hair. "This year's annual Halloween ball was a way to form new alliances and meet old friends or enemies. This year we have done things a little different from the normal awards ceremony. This year we are doing best dressed. We also have a special guest that we will speak to in a moment."
A man wearing devil horns and a pointed tail ad minimal clothing walked up to the platform and handed the man a slip of Manila colored paper.
"This year the winners of best dressed are none other than our...." He read the paper and looked puzzled. "Uh well that's unexpected but the best dressed award goes to the king a queen of hell Mr. Alex Frost and His partner Ghost." I shrugged as everyone clapped. The crowd opened a bit allowing the spotlight to shine on us. "Anything you guys want to say to the people?" The man said. I thought for a moment before a high pitched voice broke the silence.
"That is supposed to be me! I was supposed to win!" The crowd erupted into laughter. The crowd parted slightly as a blonde girl wearing a skin tight red dress and a man who looked done with life popped into view. "Red is my color! I'm the only one who was supposed to wear red!" She seethed, glaring at me.
"Is your name red?" I asked at the girl looked disgusted and confused. "Ew, no."
"Did you make the color red or did you found it?" The blonde bimbo glared at me. "No." She seethed. "Then simple, it isn't yours. Plus it really clashes with your skin color maybe you should go with black to make you a little less hideous."
"You bitch!"
"That's my name don't wear it out. Maybe if you say it three times in a row I'll disappear." I smirked at her. She walked closer to me clutching a glass of champagne. You could practically see the steam rolling off of her in waves.
"You are a slut!"
"That's not very nice." I faked innocence. "Maybe you should give your poor date a break and go back to strip club you came out of."
"I am not a stripper! Do you even know who I am?!"
"I never said you were a stripper, those people have much more self respect and talent than you ever will. You are just the cheap two dollar whore that lingers around the bar waiting for a drunk male to fall into its STD filled claws." Her face went hot from embarrassment and anger. I saw her hand shake and an evil smirk to fall over her face.
Her eyes darted the her champagne glass and back to me. She was gonna dump it on me. In one swift motion I pulled a gun from my thigh and flipped off the safety. I grabbed the back of her neck while pressings the barrel of the gun to the bottom of her chin.
"Don't you ever fucking think about doing that again or I will paint the fucking walls with your brain." I seethed in her ear but I knew the other people could hear me.
"No need to kill anyone children." I know that voice. Dropping my hands from the blonde girl and knocking her glass from her hand I turned around to be met by the aged version of me.
"Lilith."

Sorry baes, I haven't been in the right mood to write and I didn't want to give you guys a shit chapter. This chapter might not make sense but pretty much it's a time skip of about a month. The month will get filled in I swear. Also Ajax and Valentine may have their own spin off story after this one is completed. Cause Ik y'all gonna need a cliche CEO chick flick after this 😭 also THANK YOU GUYS SO FUCKING MUCH FOR 59k READS THATS INSANE.
I really started writing just cause I had so many ideas in my head and wanted to read a story with the plot but I couldn't find one so I wrote it. Some one asked me why I don't ask for comments or votes and it's cause I don't care about them at all. I do this for fun and if you like it you will vote or comment if you want. The only comments I asked for are like pointing out mistakes cause honestly half the time when I reread the chapters I don't notice them. Or the asking for opinions cause who do I look like asking actual human beings in the real world 🌝Much love to those who do vote and comment tho, I love you guys. I love all of you 💋
