Author Note: I am SO sorry it took so long to post anything, but here is the last part and I hope you all enjoy it. Thank you so much for reading! Love you all!

Crystal had been flipped to the bottom and Alex had her exactly where he desired her to be.
She let out a long and pleasing moan of pleasure that made him increase his pull on her hair and thrust deeper into her. She moaned louder and scratched into his back, he could feel her nails break his skin and he let out a barely audible moan in response. He shifted her to a better angle that made her back arch, her hair that wasn't tightly knotted in his fist was strung about her as she continued to pant slightly.

She had finally had enough of his dominance and was trying to roll him over onto his back. Had there not been a loud, continuous knocking she might have actually succeed.

"He's early. I swear that bastard ruins everything." Crystal groaned, Alex ignored the knocking and Crystal for a moment and continued to trust into her. She moaned and quietly pleaded with him to free her, the knocking became banging and she finally pulled herself off of him dizzily stood and reached for her clothes. Alex wrapped his arms around her as she bent over, growling into her ear that he wasn't finished nor satisfied, earning him a shove as she slipped on her dress and threw him is clothes. He had gotten a moment just before her dress slipped over her to admire the bruising and scratches along her back and thigh. With a smile he sloppily threw on his shirt and tugged his pants into place.

"Miss Waters!" the unwelcomed guest shouted. "Miss Waters, some time today!"

"Coming!" she yelled, and Alex gripped her arse tightly with his hands.

"You were... until he knocked, that is." he joked, she winked at him and lightly fingered at his groin.

"We can continue once he's dead." she purred and wobbled down the stairs, tossing her hair into a ponytail quickly. He didn't bother making himself look presentable, he was just going to kill Evermore.

"Miss Waters! I demand this door open now!" and she did.

"Hello, Mister Evermore." she smiled, holding an arm out to signal he was welcome inside. "I assume you're here about the lighthouse?"

"Yes, I've decided to avoid bringing in the law. I'll make you an offer on the lighthouse. One generous offe- Oh, I was not aware you had a... guest." he remarked, eying Alex closely for a moment and turning his attention back on Crystal. "Well, just because you have a guest does not mean we will put off this meeting. I told you I'd be here and here-"

"Here you are, hours early. But, no matter." she smiled, offering him a seat at the dining table. Alex had no idea how she wanted his man killed. She'd given him no hints to how she wanted him to die, but whatever happened would happen. Evermore wasn't leaving alive.

After around thirty minutes of idle gossip about nothing of importance and drinking tea, they'd headed for the top of the lighthouse. Alex followed behind the two. Crystal seemed to be quite happy with Evermore's presence. Alex only assumed it was a ruse of some kind to make him feel comfortable. Not that it would matter since he'd be dead sooner than not.

"It's a lovely offer, Evermore. I'm quite impressed." she nodded lightly and continued sipping at her tea once they arrived to the top. Crystal lit up the lighthouse, watching it happily for a brief moment then turned to face Evermore and Alex.

"Then we have a deal?" he asked with a warm tone. Crystal laughed loudly for a moment and then silenced herself.

"I said no such thing, sweet Evermore. I said it was a lovely offer. Nothing more." she sighed and looked out over the side. "This spot, this specific spot was pap's favourite. He would stand here for hours sometimes and just watch the waves. He was shoved from here, watching the waves with his assumed best friend." her voice shook slightly, but she did smile when she turned to Evermore. He shot a glare into her direction and she nodded at Alex.

"You'd kill a man for this?" he asked quietly, she nodded. "I'm too old to fight this." aside from the subtle movements of his lips, he made no other action. Crystal had mentioned earlier that her father was in the hospital after taking the fall from here. They had to assure he died and Alex would see to it.

In one swift motion, Alex had snapped his neck and Crystal pushed him over the side. After an extended moment they heard him hit the rocky waters below. Crystal looked up at Alex with a smile and kissed him. "I have my lighthouse!" she laughed, he watched her more carefully than he had before. She'd awaken the predator inside of him and noticed something totally different in her now.

She was the same as him. A predator, and she was a predator looking at her prey. "Shall we pick up where we left off?" he asked, they'd never make it back to her bed.

"No, let's stay here a moment longer..." she eyed him carefully before pushing herself onto the rail and gazing up at the sky. "You're fantastic, you know." she remarked, never looking away from the slow rolling clouds. He wouldn't make a move until she did, if she would make one. "I can't lose my lighthouse. Can't have loose ends." she whispered to herself, turning to him with a small smile that he was familiar with. It was his own. It was not something he feared, it never had been. However, within that look he realised something about her and himself.

A predator would always be a predator.

No matter how much he tried to hide his past and be someone different, he couldn't escape himself and she couldn't escape herself.
If a predator could love another, he'd assume they were meant to be. She'd brought him in, simply to use him and now there was no need for him any longer.

"Sorry." she whispered, and he laughed loudly. She wasn't. He wouldn't be either. She lunged for him and he gripped her shoulders, shoving her up against a thin steel post. "Gah!" she growled, trying her best at grabbing or scratching his arms, anything to hurt or hinder him. She had always made others do her bidding, but he was more experienced at this game than she would ever be.

"Unhand me!" she pleaded, hoping he'd release her and take that moment of advantage. He wouldn't.

Alex kissed her roughly, earning a bite in response. She festered and kicked beneath him but it only pleased him more as blood trickled slowly from one of the bites on his lip.

Why did she not do such things earlier? This was much more appealing to him than earlier had been.

"Monster." she growled as she continued to fight him.

"That makes two." he stated and laughed happily, ending the games. He'd obtained as much satisfaction as he wanted out of this. Alex's grip on her shoulders tightened and he pulled her from the thin steel beam and threw her to the ground with himself remaining on top of her. She was pinned and helpless as he slammed her head into the floor until her struggling stopped. He didn't care if she was actually dead yet, she would be after she joined Evermore in the waves below.

"Shame." he sighed as he threw her body over the side and headed off.

Evermore and Waters' bodies had been found two days later. Police are running with the theory that the two had fought and it was an accident that they'd fallen over. This was by no means a problem for Alex as he found himself sitting at the National Record Library once again with little care for what he was doing.

He missed what he use to do, but he had to let his true self subside. Alex did not want it to though, he loved the feel.

As he shuffled through papers that he paid no mind to, the door opened and the clicking of heels made him look up just slightly. A young woman with brunette hair that lightly caressed her shoulders in skin tight jeans and a rich blue off-the-shoulder top. "Hello," the woman purred, gently resting a manila file on his desk. "I was wondering if you could be of some assistance?"
