Alek Petrov is a warrior descended from a goddess. He’s also flirty, cocky, beautiful AND British. Did I mention the accent?
Well played by 24-year-old Benjamin Stone on ABC Family’s The Nine Lives of Chloe King, Alek became a forerunner for Chloe’s affections and a fan favorite early in the series.
While the series’ first reason recently concluded, future fans can view episodes 1-7 of right now on ABC Family’s website.
Simultaneously confident and vulnerable, Alek is a must-see as a Mai, a warrior descended from Bastet, the Egyptian cat goddess, who helps teach Chloe her path as the Uniter, a long-prophesied leader of the Mai.
A la Cassie Clare’s Jace Wayland, Alek is in full command of the snappy one-liners, and like Jace, comes off as a complete jerk before eventually showing true feelings to his lady-love.
Be prepared to laugh at some of Alek’s quotes, posted below:
Alek: It’s amazing how many girls find a little bruising sexy.

Alek: I’m not cheating. It’s natural talent.
Paul: You’re using your Mai powers.
Alek: Yeah, which is 100% natural for me.
***Alek: You know, the more beautiful things are, the more prickly they can be…I was talking about me.
