His Teammate's Sister

Aly and Kelly were in the living room, Kelly still holding the knife in her hand as she threw Aly down on the couch. She took the scarf from around her neck and bound Aly's wrists in front of her, making sure she could keep an eye on her. Aly was in complete disbelief that her own brother's fiancée would do something of this nature.

Kelly paced around back and forth, occasionally seeing Chris' white jeep outside the apartment, "What to do with you...what to do."

"Kelly, I don't understand. I thought we were going to be sisters," Aly cried.

"And I couldn't wait for you to be my sister until you had to schmooze your way into getting the reporting job. Jacob and I were so excited to escape Winnipeg and everything else, but you had to butt in and come along for the ride," Kelly grunted.

Aly struggled, "You're going to blame me for getting my dream job!? I worked hard for it!"

"Bullshit! I heard you on the phone with John Davidson the day after your interview, begging him for the job because you wanted to live in New York so badly once you heard Jake got signed. You ruined our lives. You are so co-dependent on your brother and his connections," Kelly fought back.

"You need fucking help. You're crazy!" Aly screamed.

Aly's phone starting ringing and she had a deep fear that it was Chris. Kelly took her phone and answered it while covering Aly's mouth with her hand, "Hello?"

Chris was startled, "Kelly?? What the fuck? Where's Aly?"

"Aly? Oh, she's a little tied up right now but I can take a message for you," Kelly smirked.

Chris was getting steamed, "If you hurt her, I swear to God, I'll kill you. Leave her alone!"

"Why don't you come upstairs and we talk, but if I see any cops, she's dead," Kelly said before hanging up.

Not even five minutes later, Chris opened the apartment door and saw his girlfriend on the couch, running to her, "Baby, oh my god!"

Kelly stopped Chris midway through his jog and laughed, "Christopher James Kreider, fancy seeing you here."

Chris looked at his girlfriend before turning back to Kelly, "Let her go."

"Now you see, I can't do that. She ruined everything for me and Jacob, and she needs to be punished. We all know Jake will take my side in this and having his precious, spoiled sister out of the way will solve everything," Kelly glared.

"No it won't. Family above everything and Jacob loves his sister. You are sick in the head and you already know the cops are after you for the arsenic. Kelly, turn yourself in. You have jail time coming," Chris added.

Kelly scoffed, "Please, jail does not scare me. I'm a PHD student, so I have the brains to get away with whatever I want. Don't worry, I'll make sure Frannie gets out too so you both can get married."

Aly's eyes went wide from the couch and she looked over at the man she loved and trusted with all her heart. Chris was furious, "Don't you EVER bring up her name again. Aly is the woman I want and that I want a forever with. You know, you and Francesca deserve to be friends- you're both mentally insane and need help. You're going to the nut house for a very long time."

Kelly walked over to Aly and yanked her back by her hair, "Get the hell out or she's gone, you got it?"

Chris had to save his girlfriend's life and it hit him, "Okay fine, but can I go in my bedroom and just get a clean shirt?"

"Yeah whatever," Kelly waved off.

Chris went into the bedroom, quickly emerging to sneak behind Kelly's back and gently strangle her with his cell phone charging wire. It wasn't strong enough to kill her, but enough to knock her out. He called the cops and went over to his girlfriend, taking the tape off her mouth, "Baby, my goodness. Are you alright?"

Aly had tears in her eyes as he freed her, "I'm better now. She could wake up at any time. What the hell do we do?"

"The cops are on their way. Let's escape for a couple days and not tell a soul where we're going. We need to get out of here, now. I love you and always will," Chris panted, kissing her with intense passion.

A few moments later, the police and an ambulance arrived to take Kelly to the behavioral unit at Northwell Health for her to be checked out and eventually admitted. The police chief walked over to Aly, "Are you okay?"

"I am now, yes sir. What happens now?" Aly asked.

"Well, we inform Frannie's attorney that Kelly has been caught and a trial will begin as soon as Kelly is stable enough, but we will make a motion with the courts for restraining orders. Look, you two need a vacation and Chris, your management told me how stressful this has been. Jeff Gorton said take Aly away for a few days on his dime and just relax. We'll handle everything," the police chief explained.

Chris squeezed Aly as tight as he could, "I'm never letting you go."

Meanwhile, Jacob had to choose between his sister and fiancee. How would things go?
