Prologue:
Year:1869
The body lied there on the ground, motionless with light red blood covering her skin. Her wrinkles were all covered in her blood.
It was hard to tell if it was just a chilly summer night meant summer was coming to an end, or it would be a falls night cold you could see your breath go into the crisp air. I could see my own reflection in her blood my tall dark figure, my short dark brown hair which was a mess, my dark grey eyes could be seen in her blood, that how clear her blood was I no longer saw the man I was back in 1409...all I saw was what I had become.
Her yellow dress was destroyed with blood, you could see where I had attacked her blood was gushing out now it had stopped her grey hair fell to the ground it was straight but now it was messy.
Once you start taking the soul it’s almost impossible to stop.
Depends on how good the soul is if it’s the best soul you ever then it’s impossible.
If it not the best soul tasting soul out there more chances of stopping, but other demons why would they want to stop it’s not like they have a heart.
Henry came out from an alley his short black hair was black as a raven’s feather, his dark blue eyes were similar to his sister’s eyes.
Henry was close to Satan, Satan trusted him they known each other ever since Henry became a demon.
Which was…I don’t know long ago and seriously don’t care.
A lot of demons wanted to be close and cherished by Satan.
Henry was one of the faces I remember when I woke up, but the first two faces were my last faces I saw before I died.
Henry had on a white undershirt with a long black coat was gently blowing in the slight breeze with some trousers on.
“Well done Brent you are a great killer.
Thought you would of resisted, but guess I was wrong.” Henry said with an evil grin I knew so well it kept across his face like a spider would creep across on the floor.
Being praised for being a murder…that happens when you are cursed.
“Shut up.” I growled.
Henry said, “Can't deny who, and what you are.”
“Henry…” I started, annoyed by how he saw me.
I hated when people pulled the line whose son I am.
He cut me off and said, “I don’t want to argue about what you think about killing or taking lives.
Hold or forget your humanity and kill like you should.”
“Henry no I am…” I started, but once again he cut me off.
None of what I said ever mattered; it was like some useless message on the news.
Or a child trying to talk to their parent and they didn’t want to talk or listen to the kid.
“Talk to your father about how ‘human’ you think you are.
Or talk about your feelings.
Come on we better get back before Satan flips out.” Henry said putting on a friendlier grin.
Like the grin a teenager would give at the thrill of a rush.
We rushed home before people saw the old woman then us.
It wouldn’t take them much time to put it together.
There are two ways to kill/take a soul.
1. Stabbed into their chest where the soul rests and rip it out.
2. The other way is bite somewhere and suck the soul out you get more of soul that way.
Since you are sucking it out, the first way is quicker the second way is more painful for the prey.
Since you keeping them alive, and they are watching you devour them slowly.
We arrived home.
It was dark gloomy the trees were dead, the grass looked like someone just burnt it, the sky was a dark grey close to a black, there was a chill in the air mixed with the intense heat.
To me it looked like Rome that style of buildings.
To me it felt like an isolated place, where you think someone is following you when no one is.
Making you rip anyone’s head off since you always so tense that was the feeling.
Darkness is what I feel here, you could hear the screams in the wind from people who are dying or people whom have died here.
The east side of Hell which was hidden in the woods, where the trees were dying slowly everyday we came to where the Devil lives.
The old castle was made out of dark stone I could see some dried blood on a few stones.
Henry opened the gates we walked across the courtyard the dead grass was blowing a little the dead tress were limp
The fountain water looked dull and lifeless unlike the wonderful beach water everyone dreams of.
The castle was huge 17th century style but Hell has been around ever since the start.
I walked up the old stairs that seem to be covered in blood but they were clean I went up to my room.
Where I could be alone and try to tell myself lies to make my day better, but for me I wonder why did I have to be changed into a monster?
But there are two parts of me a part that I am hating what I become, maybe that’s because I became a demon on my birthday and my family died on that day as well.
The other way I feel like giving into the monster that is just beneath my skin.
At last I came to my bedroom door I looked at the door the wood had amazing cravings on it, demonically looking designs.
I opened the door, and was in my room there dark wood flooring was cold just like stone.
A king size bed with dark red covers black sheets a black canopy and dark brown wood.
It was on the right side of my room with the balcony door on the right side of the bed, there was a dark wood craved table with some different kinds of drinks on it.
There was a loveseat it was a bloody red color, there was a fireplace in front of the loveseat.
The rugs were between black and a dark red I took off my boots and threw them into a corner.
There was a full size mirror by a dresser.
I opened the dark red stain glass doors to my balcony I looked at the land of pain…and no mercy…. welcome to the nightmare life.
I will never wake up from this nightmare…because it’s life.
It’s impossible to make someone else happy, and make your self happy at the same time, no one is perfect.
The only emotions we can show at each other are hatred and anger.
ONE MONTH LATER….
PART 1
I sighed slowly it was quiet in the castle I could hear a few demons talking. Trying to keep their voices quiet enough.
I could hear my own heart beat even though it was barely even a beat.
The blood was rushing through my veins there isn’t one drop of human blood left in my veins.
The only blood inhabited my blood was demon blood…not just any blood.
Black blood.
The door opened I turned around and saw Henry he said, “You should get out more, you are either out with us killing or in your room.
Satan has this huge estate, go out Brent.” Henry said, sounding like a mother trying to get a kid to stop playing with his toy and get him outside.
What would I do to pass the time, I could just lie down and stare at the sky, yeah…no.
I got up and went downstairs, the castle interior was you could say breath taking everything was dark and gothic.
Then I went down a hall way looking outside I leaned against the window a servant came up to me then bowed I looked at her she had her hair tied in a braid her hair was black, she was pale and her eyes were a orange.
She had on a long black dress on she still was bowing she said, “Good evening prince may I go see if the princess is up?” The servant asked.
“No, she can rest…besides I want to be alone.” I sighed, trying to be somewhat of a gentleman.
The servant nodded then walked away, I went down the hall outside the wind was cold I looked up at the dark sky not one ray of light came through.
Then Henry came out he said, “So going to cause trouble at school tomorrow?”
“Right, do I really have to?
What’s the point in going.”
Henry said, “Well, I don’t know hey check in with your father.
Sure would have some father and son bonding time.”
I glared at him then walked off to find where ever he was.
I knew where he was I didn’t want to see his face…
I found the room he always was in a few guards where at the door and bowed to me then opened the doors.
The room was huge it was long huge columns were holding the roof up, there was a long rug it was black with bloodstains on it.
Then there was a throne it was made out skulls (they are real) blood colored leather.
There were spikes on top, a few dead bodies were in the far corners. There was a slight smell of rotting from the dead bodies.
Then there was no other then him.
He was tall he had pale skin, which was flawless he had his blonde hair tied back; he had dark red eyes with black zigzags in them. He seemed perfect like a masterpiece from a famous artist but the artist had gone mad and gave his piece an evil personality.
He had on a black coat on and a dark red suit on under.
He smiled at me his white teeth seemed to white for someone who killed all the time.
His fingers were long they seemed they were hidden claws.
He seemed like he had some muscle but not much just enough to keep from being skin and bones.
“Come in my son.” Satan waved towards me with his hand.
I took a few steps forward then the huge doors closed behind me, I said, “Yes…father.”
Calling him that name I hated to, he wasn’t my birth father but now he was. The word it didn’t fit him the word that fitted him was monster. Monster is an understatement.
“So there is a problem somehow Demon Hunters have broken into Hell.
So meaning they are planning to kill us in our home.” Satan said, in a dark voice it had a bit of an accent to it but it was hard to tell.
That had been going on for five weeks he was worried that they might kill us in our home.
God give me a break, we kill millions a week in their home.
If he so worried about that little problem why not take care of it instead of wasting my time.
“So what are we going to do?”
“I don’t know but once we find those hunters they are going to be dead.”
“Anyone you suspect…” I said, not looking up at him.
Satan sighed then rubbed his chin then said, “Not really, but be careful we wouldn’t want you to loose your head now would we?”
I felt my canines coming out but I closed my mouth and hid them Satan had a dark laugh he knew I was getting angry then he said, “Temper. Wow whom did you get that from?”
I only stayed silent then turned away then growled, “Didn’t want this…”
“I know, you tell me that every day hey you can’t go back. The deal is done.
Though you didn’t make a deal with me, oh what a lovely story you have.
Such a pity.”
He had a dark laugh at the end I only growled low but loud enough so he could hear it.
“Now you should go to bed, its getting late want you to have a good first day of school now don’t we?”
I exhaled heavily then sighed, “Yes…”
“Good night son.” Satan called after me as I left.
I stormed out of the room and went up to the tower I went up to my room I took off my shirt and threw it in a corner.
I sighed then pushed my short dark brown hair back then lied down the sheets oh, they were softer then silk the sheets were black then the covers were a dark red.
I looked up at the ceiling I left the canopy tied back.
I must stared at the ceiling for hours until I could fall asleep.
All I could think about was the dying screams of that woman I killed…
I opened my eyes the moment I did I knew where I was.
Home…not Hell my real home.
In Italy 1409, I got up I was in the field, which was not to far from my home the long grass blew against my legs, I looked up at he clear blue sky there was not even a cloud in sight.
The wind was gentle yet strong I heard a shouting in the distance.
“Hey Adrian!” A voice yelled out.
I turned around there was my brother Jacob.
He was one year older than me, he was nineteen, I was eighteen…now.
But…now I was seventeen in this dream before my life changed for the worse.
He was riding a on a dark red thoroughbred with a red mane and a black tail.
He had a saddle, some reins on.
“Hey brother.” Jacob said, laughing.
I looked at him he was perfect.
He was smart, he was great with kids, and he could be a school star.
There was so much to him, most girls would be wanting him.
“Hey Jacob.” I said, looking up at him.
Jacob had black hair which was tied back he had ivory skin, he had green eyes he had on a riding outwear on.
He had no muscles at all although he was strong at times.
“So come on get Midnight and let’s race.”
“Really, come on don’t you have something to do.” I asked, laughing.
“No, come on.” Jacob said, I laughed then ran over to a horse which seemed huge but he wasn’t it was a black horse with dark brown mane and tail.
The horse looked at me with it’s black eyes it only would let me ride it, no one else could read him. Some joked I was some kind of horse whisperer and told him to not let anyone ride him expect for me. I got up it had some reins but no saddle, Jacob looked at me confused why I was riding bareback I said, “A real man rides bareback.”
“Well let’s see if you can beat me!”
Jacob kicked his horse and they took off I didn’t do anything Midnight ran off after them Jacob was laughing I am not sure if he caught a bug or what but he let out a cough then I caught up and we ran through the woods dodging trees then we arrived at a house I remember when I was younger it was a small cottage some smoke came from it there was a small river with a bridge going over it a few goats ran around I went over to the house then a girl came out she was seventeen she was a childhood friend.
Emily was you could say a beautiful girl although to me she was a friend.
Sure she saw me no more than a friend as well.
She came out from the house then said, “Hey how are the two I migliori amici per la vita che sono fratelli?”
Emily said in a soft Italian accent.
Jacob laughed and said, “Yes I guess we are best friends.”
“Some may think you two are so close, that you guys are twins.
Being together even before you were born.”
“Yeah but Adrian over here is one year younger then me.” Jacob chuckled coming over to me.
I got off the horse then looked at Emily, she had black hair, brown eyes and a tan.
She had a long blue dress on with a grey vest on she said, “Hey Adrian you have matured haven’t you.”
I had a slight laugh then said, “I been mature for a while.”
“I know, well hey isn’t it a special day?” Emily teased.
“Yes it is!” Jacob said, while laughing, then messing my hair up.
“It is?” I asked, with a slight laugh.
Emily said, “Eighteen years old tonight.”
“That’s great, well sure mom would throw a party for you.” Jacob said, proud of how old I was getting.
“So what are you planning to do after tonight?” Emily asked.
I shrugged then said, “Might join the military or might help Jacob at the church.”
“Yeah he’s good with kids, they listen so well to him.”
“Thank you for taking care of my sister, she hasn’t talked since our mother died.
Now she talks about you all the way home after church.”
I had a slight laugh then Jacob said, “He’s a good younger’s lady’s man.”
I laughed slightly then said, “Well, I don’t know why she just…”
“You make people feel safe.” Emily said.
I had a slight laugh then Jacob said, “Well I am off to see my girlfriend.”
“See you tonight brother.” I called out to him.
Jacob rode off Emily said, “Hey Rebecca look who’s here.”
There was a small face peaking out of the doorway it looked like she was starving yet she was that pale she had dark brown puppy dog eyes she had on a dress like her sister’s.
Her light brown hair was long and thick it hadn’t been brushed.
“It’s Adrian.” Emily said, smiling at her sister, she got a small smile then came out she had a rag it was an old blanket she came out running she was so small.
Yet she was a premature baby she seemed three years old when she was five.
I kneed down and she came in running hugging me, “Happy birthday.”
“Oh thank you for remembering.” I said, with a slight laugh then whispered, “Unlike your sister.”
I picked Rebecca up she had her small arms wrapped around me Emily said, “God you are going to be a great dad.”
“I don’t know if I would find anyone.”
Emily said, “You will, trust me love is for any kind soul.
You have a good soul Adrian.”
(Wish that was true now…)
I said, “Well, you have a sweeter soul than I do.”
Emily laughed then said, “Don’t be silly, you to me are perfect.”
“Wait are you two going to kiss!” Rebecca asked, disgusted, sticking her little pink tongue out.
I had a slight laugh then saw Emily blushing a little I said, “So Emily seems like you might like me?
Or are you getting sick you are a little red.”
“Adrian, you know you aren’t my type.” Emily said.
“You know I am.” I teased.
Then Rebecca said, “Adrian can you read to me again.”
“Rebecca Adrian has to go how about we go to his party tonight.
Then you can bug him all you want.”
“I don’t bug him…do I?” Rebecca asked, looking at me with huge dark brown eyes.
“Of course not.” I said, giving a smile.
I was got home it was in town the house was a light brown or red brick.
The roof was flat there was two stories, the windows were open I went inside then I saw my mother come in from a room she had blonde hair there was some grey strands in her hair.
Her skin was a fair skin, she had blue eyes she had on a yellow dress on with an apron on, with her hair tied back in a braid.
She smiled at me her face had some wrinkles yet she looked younger then she was.
“Hey Adrian.” She said, hugging me.
She seemed so fragile her bones were weak yet she gave a soft mother-like glow.
“Hey mother.” I said softly.
Then I noticed most of her friends and a few friends of mine were there.
“Happy birthday.” Everyone said, everyone was off which was kind of amusing when everyone looked at each other after words.
I laughed then saw most of the kids who I took care of at the church came running over to me.
I sat down on the ground the kids were only from pre-school to 3rd grade.
They were small yet they teamed up and tackled me, yet I knew I could easily handle them but I just let them play.
“Kids be nice he’s getting old.” Jacob said, laughing.
I had a slight laugh Rebecca pushed others away and crawled into my arms.
“Hey!” A kid yelled then pouting.
“Rebecca.” I said, in a gentle father-like tone.
She got up then went to go play with another girl.
The kids ran off once Jacob came in with a few homemade toys.
Then I saw my sister she was only three she had soft blonde hair, her hair was curled, and she was so small and fragile.
She had on a small soft pink dress she had a few white ribbons in her hair.
She was in a corner with a teddy bear hugging it tight, afraid if she let go it would turn into dust.
“Hey Aldabella.” I said, softly crawling over to her and sitting on my knees.
I came over to her she looked up at me then said, “Brother?”
I smiled then sat down by her she sat in my lap then curled up in my lap she looked up at me then said, “Adrian…”
“Yes?” I asked softly and gently.
“I had a nightmare…”
“Really want to talk about it?” I asked, in a soft voice.
Aldabella said, “I thought I saw these monsters ripping you apart.”
I stroked her soft yellow hair she seemed scarred I had a slight laugh then said, “Don’t worry I am here, I will never leave you.”
“Promise?” Aldabella asked, sweetly, letting her eyelashes pat.
I smiled then leaned down then whispered, “I promise, I love you.
Now your nightmare tell me about it?”
“I screamed for them to stop but they just kept killing you.
Then they left you…blood was everywhere!” she started crying I had her put her face in my shirt she cried then clutched my shirt.
“Shh, it’s ok I am here.” I said, stroking her hair and her soft back.
Then Jacob and Emily came over they saw Aldabella Jacob said, “Hey Aldabella you ok?”
He looked at me then mouthed, “Is she ok?”
I shook my head then stood up holding her I whispered into Jacob’s ear, “Bad nightmare.”
Jacob gently took her from my arms she didn’t want to let go but once she smelled Jacob she hugged his neck.
Emily said, “So you are eighteen when?”
“At nine, which is fifteen minutes away.”
Emily said, “What was your sister’s dream about?”
I knew Emily had this gift she knew what any dream meant.
I didn’t know if I should tell her or not it didn’t really matter then I said, “She thought she saw me die.”
“I guess she really loves you.” Emily said, shrugging.
It was true she loved me more than she loved mom actually.
I went outside I wanted to take a walk, get fresh air.
There were a few gangs looking at me passing by, a few homeless people were in allies or trashcans.
It became real dark the lanterns went out by a strong gust of wind.
Then I was passing by an alley someone grabbed my arm everything blurred the grip was strong and firm. All the nerves in that shoulder went into shock, they held onto me tight afraid to let me go as if they let up one bit I would run away.
I hit the cold hard stone which felt it put a crack in my skull everything was blurry. As if you opened your eyes under water.
I blinked a few times then held by head I could feel something warm coming out. Blood.
I saw a dark figure standing there I couldn’t see the face or anything.
He had a dark cloak on and it was so dark I couldn’t see the face.
He grabbed me by the neck then pinned me against the wall, I wanted to cough up blood but I couldn’t breathe.
I felt the man’s nails but they seemed more like claws digging into my neck I felt blood trickling down my neck.
Then started to soak my clothes, I thought the world started to spin then the man said, “You poor little human…”
The voice was dark it sent chills down my spine then caused me to feel real weak all over.
Numb to the point of death maybe…
“Who…who are you?” I said, in a weak voice.
The man had a dark laugh then said, “Your worst nightmare…now ever heard of demons…”
I didn’t want to answer but my head was banged hard against the wall forcing me to answer I moaned, “Yes…”
“Good, now you have no meaning left in life…I am going to end your life.”
“No, leave me alone.” I moaned.
The man laughed then said, “Adrian, you are dead.
Now you are about to have a dark new life.
You will never be able to love again…”
I started to struggle then said, “No…what do you want.”
“Your soul, and you are destined to be evil…”
Evil the word twisted in my stomach I could feel it in his voice.
I yelled, “Help!” Begging someone would hear me, but who would hear me in the midnight of the night.
Then the man covered my mouth his hand was rough then I felt sharp nails clutching my skin.
The hand was hot as if he had been in…flames…or Hell.
The man laughed then said, “You will never love, you won’t be human ever again.
You are a demon…and my son.”
Then the man titled my head back hard and banged my head into the wall.
I couldn’t breathe or yell in pain the man bit my neck I felt blood running down my neck then it felt as if lighting had stuck my heart.
It was more painful then words it was as if knives were in all your nerves.
Then your neck being turned more then possible and lighting striking you.
I felt a rush of poison it was like rush through my veins then as if nothing was inside.
Emotions seemed to fade away into darkness…
Then I saw two red glowing eyes glowing at me it growled something I couldn’t understand.
Everything faded away I looked up at my attacker he took off the hood I couldn’t see anything but two red and black glowing eyes, they were cat-like.
As I closed my eyes he seemed to get closer to grab me…Help anyone…
I woke up to a scream of pain I pushed my hair back barely.
The scream was full of pain and blood, it didn't scare but I could of swore it related to the night that I died.
I wished I could hold Aldabella again I miss her the most.
The next time I woke from the change, which was about four days later, the attacker…that was Satan my “father” now.
He told me they were dead, I didn’t believe him I ran to check and they were all burnt to a crisp.
I wished they weren’t dead…wished could have saved them.
I got up and went to one of the windows and looked out to the courtyard in the back.
The demons who lived in the castle were in a circle and there was Satan glaring at someone who looked like was on the ground I got on a white buttoned shirt and went outside, I pushed through the crowd there was a girl who looked only fifteen she had dark red hair, pale skin, blue eyes I think.
She had on a light yellow dress on but blood covered it. As if she was brutally tortured and the way she sat there it would almost seem as if she was raped.
It dripped onto the courtyard, like rain, small drops but every drop meant another groan of pain from the girl.
I looked over at a guard then said, “What’s going on.”
“She is guilty of being suspected as a Demon Hunter.”
I looked at her Satan lifted her chin with one of his claw like fingers so she could look at him he said wickedly, “You thought you could out smart me.
Please you will die before you and your people can kill us.”
“No I am not!” The girl pleaded.
“Don’t lie I can see your lies.” Satan said, wickedly.
The girl struggled to get free but the demons held her down hard.
I wanted to speak out but I held it in she didn’t seem like a Demon Hunter. It was like the whole witch crap, if you are suspected doing something even like a witch, you are classified as one, there was no fair justice.
“I don’t know what you are talking about!” The girl pleaded.
Satan laughed then looked up at me great…
Why can’t I been a heavier sleeper?
“Son don’t you think this is foolish, she claims to be innocent yet she is really a Demon Hunter.”
I sighed then looked away but I could feel Satan’s glare sinking into my skin imprinting on my brain then I said in a real shallow emotionless voice, “Yeah.”
Then I looked up I wish I hadn’t Satan grabbed her head I could hear her dying screams her lungs trying to get every last breath.
Her brain seemed to be shattering into millions of pieces her skin seemed to turn to ice.
She tried to push him away but he had an evil grin on as he took the last breaths from her.
Her head was covered in light red blood, it soaked into her once clean dark red hair, the blood looked like light highlights. I didn’t want to see her face with blood running it down it.
She dropped to the ground and she was dead…
“Well she’s done killing us.” Satan said, evilly.
The demons bowed to him then left leaving him and me alone. Great.
“Hey son guessing you had a wonder dream?” He asked, with a wicked smile I knew and hated.
I rolled my eyes and looked away from him Satan laughed then said, “Why do you hate me so much?”
I narrowed my eyes looking away from him still.
“You know why.” I growled under my breath.
Satan said, “I did what I had to do.
You are who you are now.”
“And who is that.” I snapped.
Satan shook his finger at me then said, “Now, now you have to be a good boy if you don’t want me to be a abusive father.”
He had abused me a lot in the past, lost count how many times that happen. Been close to death again, sometimes but it wouldn't matter he would just bring me back to life.
“Can’t I have a dorm at Hell Private?” I asked, rolling my eyes.
“Then someone of us won’t see you!
Now you know someone here has a eye for you, are you really going to break our little family up?” Satan asked, in a father-like tone.
“No, but come on I am four hundred fifty nine years old…”
“Still you need to be home, what if you get roomed with a Demon Hunter.”
“If you are so worried about me getting killed or captured or I don’t know.
I will request for a roommate with a friend.”
I am sure he wouldn’t care if I got hurt he abused me a lot.
So why would it make a difference if it was a human using guns or knives on me.
“You know a bit to late to enroll for a dorm. Besides I will rip anyone damn head off if they piss me off.” I growled low, looking at him.
It was should of enrolled into a dorm, although I had a idea…
I could control anyone into doing what I want them to do.
Then I turned away from him then Satan said, “Brent, why do you want a dorm.
Don’t you want to live with us.”
He came closer I glared at his dark red eyes they still had their dark flames.
The same ones I remembered from that night he attacked me.
Still the monster burned inside them onto the innocent.
I only barley bared my canines at him, Satan rolled his eyes then said in a dark voice in my ear, “Go ahead…let’s see how interesting things may get.”
“What do you mean.”
He only had a slight laugh then whispered, “You know what I mean.”
He walked off into the castle I rubbed my neck, I went to the front of the castle then looked back at it.
It hadn’t changed one bit it was same as it was when I first woke up inside it.
The feeling inside hadn’t changed, I went into the woods fog covered mostly the ground it was hard to see the ground it was thick it would confuse any human who was lost in it.
Although my eyes burnt right through it, I sighed looking up at the dark yet it seemed to be burning with flames right through the clouds.
I looked around the forest I let out a heavy exhale…
I wanted to die what was there to live for in this life?
I woke up the next day I took a two-hour bath the warm water, finally I think Henry needed to drag me out of the bath. It seemed like it.
Henry said, “Brent come on you going to be late for school.”
“I don’t want to go…” I complained.
Henry laughed then said, “Brent you sound like a kid."
"I don’t want to go!” Henry said mocking me.
“Henry I-----“ I started, sliding down into the tub wondering if I could drown myself.
“So I hear you want to get a dorm at Hell Private.”
“Yeah, I need to get on my own.”
Henry said, “We’ll think about it.
Besides we need to stay together remember we’re a family.”
I got on the school uniform which had a white button shirt, dress pants.
Then a black tie then a black light jacket on, then black dress shoes.
I looked in the mirror; my hair was bed hair you could say.
I just left it how it was I didn’t feel like fixing it.
I got to the school it was very gothic looking the huge castle-like building had a few towers.
It was fenced some of the fence was rusting, the windows were long and narrow.
It was the building was about two three stories.
Students were playing a few games out I went inside the school the carpet was a dark brown the walls were red with black paneling.
There was a cabinet with a few awards in it then above it were the founders pictures I went down the right hall to a room it was dark with cabinets behind a desk with a old lady.
She had her hair in a messy bun her skin was covered in wrinkles she had green eyes with a yellow dress on she was reading a poem book.
The carpet was a dark green the walls were a dark stone, I looked at the old lady and waited for her to look up she looked up then said, “Oh hello dear, how can I help you?”
The room didn't have munch light it was dim, with a few candles creating a low growl.
Her voice was shaking she knew who I was she knew who was my father…
“I am Brent Hellure.” I sighed.
“Oh yes, son of Satan welcome to Hell Private here’s your classes and will you be requesting a dorm sir?” The old woman asked.
I wanted a room then said, “No, I am good.”
God why did I just say that, I could of be away from Satan more if I lived at the school.
Such a idiot…
I walked out of the office then went outside all the students looked human.
Looked human none of us were human.
The students made their way inside I went to my first class joy…
Finally the day ended oh joy here we go again back home…
I got home and leaned against the entry hall, why didn’t I ask for dorm?
I loosed my tie up then I saw her…
She had beautiful blonde hair, pale skin, dark evil purple eyes, she had on a soft pink nightgown on.
I glared at her she walked like a cat in the night, stalking it’s prey, using her beauty to lure a man in to her then she rips their soul out.
With no second thoughts…
“Hello Brent.” She said, in a dark and sexy voice.
She ran her hand down my cheek then down on my jaw bone then she leaned in to kiss me.
I looked away from her then let out a dark growl, “Kiss me and you’ll be loosing your head.”
She had a slight giggle then said again, “Listen you need to forgive me.
You can’t hate me forever.”
“Want to bet…” I snarled, baring my front canines.
“Oh my love, you know inside that gorgeous body of yours you feel the same way I do.
Our love is still there.” She whispered in my ear.
“Angel listen last time we were together you cheated on me, acted as if nothing happened.
You forced me to have sex with you so many times after that.
Then you tried to kill me then acted as if it was all a horrible nightmare.
You made me think we had something, the only thing I have for you is hate.”
I pushed her away from me then went up to my room, I slammed my door then lied down on my bed.
“Get away from me!” A voice screamed in pain.
I turned to look for it there was Emily and Rebecca were cornered a saw a dark figure cornering them, I ran and tackled the man.
He was stronger then me he pinned me down hard to the cold stone, it started to rain it seemed more like hale then rain.
I saw the figure he grinned grimly at me he took off his hood there was Satan.
“You’re a fool, keeping your feelings…you idiot...”
I opened my eyes and rubbed my temples hard, I missed Emily she was my best friend.
You could say she was like a sister to me.
Although I loved her somehow, I wasn’t sure why but she was important.
I got up and looked out the window why did I have to be out that night?
I sighed the feelings kept me from being a mindless killer. Went out to the human world, and sat alone in a graveyard, I could feel the spirits that didn’t want to move on or couldn’t.
So they take their pain out on bystanders.
I sat against a tombstone it was cold and lifeless I put my back to it, the poor soul who had to die that night.
I could feel the spirits pain just from my nerves.
This soul belonged to a young girl she was raped by her father, then she was choked to a point before she couldn’t take it.
Then he pushed her down three flights of stairs…he hid her body away he didn’t caught for three years.
I felt so bad for her she was only four years old.
Why did death exist, good for humans to live to their elder life but Aldabella she was so young…why did she have to die?
She was so young so innocent I could remember her little eyes how she would look at me.
The way her little eyelashes would pat against each other after she woke up from a nap.
I could remember her small arms how they were so fragile yet they were soft how they held tight.
She loved me the most they way when she was trying to learn to walk.
How she would giggle every time she fell.
She would look at me and try and walk to me even though Jacob was trying to teach her.
Her soft yellow hair would it blow in the window, the way she was amazed by butterflies.
I felt a pain in my heart I held it in pain, I didn’t want to loose anyone.
The graveyard was so gloomy the grass was rough as I ran my palm through it was like sand paper, the sky was dark some rain drops came down.
A few visitors were mourning over lost ones.
I closed my eyes for a second only if I could be dead, resting in my coffin dead.
Somewhere better then where I was now.
I rubbed my neck and shoulder, where I was bit.
I could remember all the details of the poison inside, the world how it seemed to change to a safe place to a dark world filled with blood.
Where lies come every day every second, every word you say to someone is a lie.
When you think someone will keep a promise or you tell someone something.
Then you turn your back on them then lie to them.
I closed my eyes trying to think of my home.
Playing with Aldabella then Jacob coming in on his horse the horse would buck him off.
Or he would try to get off smooth then end up falling, then with my mother coming out with some fresh food smiling at us.
No matter how hard I would try my dreams turn to nightmares…they never last.
Nothing good ever lasts.
Then I heard a familiar voice, “Vampire attack!”
I knew who it was and the only person who would yell that out at me.
I was knocked to the ground hard yet I felt nothing at all, I looked up there was my best friend Robert.
He had black short hair, it was kind of curly he had pale skin he had ice blue eyes his fangs were visible he gave a big smile.
Robert had on a long red coat on with a colonial solider uniform.
“Brent!” Robert said, in a sheepish voice.
I raised one of my eyebrows at him I wondered how much stupidity could fill one man’s brain.
Second thought does he have one did it rot over the years?
“Hey Robert.” I sighed.
I did miss him but I didn’t want to talk to anyone right now.
“Hey where have you been, I haven’t seen you since 1812!” Robert said, in an excited yet annoying voice.
“Um, you know here…there.” I said, my voice had no emotions in it.
“Well me and Annabeth have missed you, and that attitude of those, life is dull without you being all pissed off all the time.”
I said ignoring his comment about my attitude, “Well how is she doing?”
"She's been good, you know being a vampire been trying to stay on that diet you put us on. No other vampire gets it.” Robert said, in a somewhat passionate voice.
As this was some drama book, a character feeling alone in the world.
“Yeah because you suck.” I said, rolling my eyes.
Robert had a stupid laugh then said, “That was good.
I suck, I am a vampire.”
He had another laugh I couldn’t believe how he could be that happy.
Like a stupid little prep or someone high, he was high all the time. How could someone always have a smile on?
Which got disturbing…
“Wow you are good.” Robert said.
I slowly nodded then said, “Um, what are you doing here thought you were living with your family in New Orleans.”
Robert came from a vampire family, he wasn’t turned he was born a vampire, then his master (parents) which ever one would bite him then that would complete the transforming.
“Oh yeah well I missed you and want to see what you been up to.” Robert laughed, while shrugging.
I let out a exhale which was slow then I said, “Oh um yeah same old same old, same struggle same pain…yeah.”
“You are really depressing you have this scary aura no wonder when human girls come up to you they get scared their blood runs quicker their heart pumps fast as a rabbits heat beat during a chase.”
“Well I can’t give that stare girls are consumed by.”
“How about I help you find a girl who won’t be frozen by your glare.
Because you glare and you are angry a lot.”
“No girl would be brave enough.”
Robert had a laugh again then sighed, “Brent there is someone for everyone maybe its Angel for you.”
I narrowed my eyes at him I felt anger inside it almost seemed as if darkness or blood covered my vision.
“You really think that no good lying cheating---.” I snared, but Robert cut in then by shoving his hand almost in my face then said, “For you being a prince you have no manners you can never call a lady that no matter how much you may hate them.”
I could see he was like some high teenager always trying to make a joke or lighten the mood.
“How long has it been since you had a good round of drinks?” Robert asked, letting a somewhat sheepish smile come across his smooth face.
It had been maybe three weeks or two, I raised an eyebrow he always loved taking us to a vampire bar.
He enjoyed those kinds of bars while I just stayed far away from everyone and sipped whatever I got.
“Why are you taking us to umm to another vampire bar again.” I sighed; I knew my voice had no joy in it.
“Yeah, come on.” Robert said, almost jumping up and down.
I was annoyed how he acted, being a little bubble or whatever you want to call him.
For a vampire he was really…fairy-like.
“Fine, whatever.” I said, almost throwing my hands.
Robert dragged me to the town a few men were out in coats and it was windy the sky was a dark navy blue stars were out they seemed bright enough to light the path.
A few carriages went past, we went to a bar it didn’t look like much, and it seemed like nothing more then a simple large shed.
It was a dark brown the roof was a brown or black, the lights outside flickered there were a few moths trying to get heat from the light.
The doors were double door it had stain glass Robert opened it there was dim lighting I could hear a band playing people were out on the floor dancing Robert lifted both of his eyebrows a few times and went over to a girl who was a vampire.
Yet he would flirt with any girl no matter what she was.
Of course she replied back to his flirting it sickened me the word love.
Love seemed a human word forgotten inside me.
It been hundred of years since I had it, Angel my ex (remember the blonde one…)
She tried to give me love, yet all it seemed as a snake slowly wrapping around your skin the feeling of the scales making you feel numb and weak.
Letting you drift off into some kind of odd sleep.
Then she would sink her fangs into you killing you slowly with her venom.
Family love was long forgotten for good, it seemed only a pile of ashes slowly decaying as ashes into nothing.
But I missed it the feel of my sister’s small firm arms around my neck.
My brother how we were known as almost one, since we were so close, some may think we are twins.
Mother’s love missed her how she would always make time for all of us her voice how she would comfort me into a peaceful child sleep when I was younger.
Then my father’s love it’s a missing puzzle piece I never knew him.
Partner love meant nothing to me, why give your heart to anyone.
I rubbed my temples hard then went over to the bar counter then said, “One Silverwood Pinot Rose.”
The bartender nodded and gave me a glass of it; it was a dark red it almost seemed like blood.
Yet it tasted good, not the best yet gave a strong rush through my body.
I sighed then heard a few voices coming from outside I looked at the other vampires who were inside they didn’t listen stupid vampires..
I went outside to look around then heard a woman screaming then gruff men voices yelling to get her and hold her down.
I went towards them then hid against a wall they were in a dark alley.
“Let me go now!” The woman yelled.
One of the men laughed then said, “Kill her.”
I barely peaked around the corner and saw the two men holding her right I could see fear over running her eyes, she was crying almost.
She wasn’t human…the men were.
I didn’t understand why she wasn’t attacking them she could kill them within seconds.
The man stabbed her in the stomach she coughed up blood then dropped to the ground.
“Well that demon is dead…someone is watching us.” The other guy said.
I went back inside the bar hopefully they would ignore me.
Robert came over to me then said, “So where did you go?”
“Well you know there are demon hunters around…they just killed a woman.” I whispered.
Robert said, “Ah well that isn’t good.”
I shook my head then turned away he didn’t get it.
Vampires were like a crow, demons were shadows consuming any innocent creature, even if it means killing a vampire.
“Brent…” Robert sighed.
I left him without saying anything I got back home everyone was sleeping, and if someone was I knew how to be really agile and not get caught.
I closed my bedroom door then let out a sigh I could remember when I woke up into this never-ending nightmare of hell…
I lied down on my bed I closed my eyes…
It seemed only a dream yet the pain the feeling I got when I first awoke.
I felt as if I just been able to breathe again, the rush of breath escaped my lungs so rapidly and violently.
My senses seemed to awake as if they all been born into the world.
My heart was pumping hard against my chest it almost was painful I sat up quickly my head wasn’t hurting anymore I could remember the man who attacked me.
I looked around the dark gothic room I saw a few chains hanging from the ceilings,
The carpet was black there was no windows there was a few curtains around where I was sleeping.
I lied on the bed it had black sheets with a dark red cover, I got up I felt so lightheaded I fell over but I caught myself.
I grabbed the leather wall and pulled myself up, my legs were weak as jello it seemed. My muscles felt numb and weak I saw the door open there was a woman there.
She had blonde hair dark purple eyes, flawless skin, it was a beautiful pale she came in gracefully she had her eyes on me.
She had on a black dress on with a velvet choker she came up to me somehow I was frozen in her eyes.
“Hello.” A dark yet beautiful voice echoed my ear.
“Who are you?
Where am I?” I asked.
The girl was about to say something then a man came in…
He was even more striking then the girl he had blonde hair tied back he had on a black cloak on with some ripped and blood clothes on under.
He had flawless skin, dark red eye eyes, he had razor sharp teeth.
As he walked he just seemed deadly not even saying anything.
“He’s finally awake.” The girl said, rubbing one of my shoulders.
I looked at her she had an innocent yet cunning smile on.
“Who are you?” I asked again.
The man had a dark evil laugh which seemed more demonic then human, “I am Satan, that beautiful girl is Angel.”
Satan the name sunk into my stomach painfully I was frozen with fear.
“What…” I said, in shock.
The man laughed again then said, “Yes, you are someone new…you aren’t Adrian DeLuca anymore.”
I was confused my head was hurting so painfully I couldn’t even stand straight.
Angel saw my pain then rubbed gently then said softly, “It’s ok, it will be better soon.”
The girl looked at Satan he said, “Yeah he’s lusting for a kill.”
I didn’t like where this was going killing…lusting…it will be better once I killed someone.
“What.” I said, my voice was trying to gather rage or any other emotion besides confusion.
“Well, first I am changing your name I don’t Adrian is so, I don’t know so maybe Brent?” Satan asked.
Before I could say something Satan said, “You are a demon…”
Demons were monsters from the flames of hell, they come out at midnight come and suck the life out of the most innocent then leave them to rot.
I felt my legs go limp almost; I said my throat really dry, “Demon…”
The word didn’t even seem real.
“No, no I am not.” I said, still with a horse voice.
Angel still had her small firm hands rubbing on of my shoulders.
Satan didn’t look like what they say they have many different Satan’s how he looks, so how could he look human?
Or is he just a drunk guy trying to make some huge joke?
He only had his evil grin on I could see a few white sharp canines in his mouth.
He was to perfect looking to be human…
That was it…he wasn’t human there was no way a human could have these perfect looks…yet I didn’t want to think this was Satan, or the Devil.
“Well, remember I came and attacked you that pain you felt I was taking your soul.
Then poison inside was causing so much pain, then when the poison made you pass out then when you were out the demon was there just awaiting for you to open your eyes and feel him inside.
Now you have opened your eyes with him inside just waiting for the kill.” Satan said, in a dark voice that seemed to ring in my ears.
I was in shock no this cant be real…no.
“Why me.” I said, in a horse shaking voice.
Satan only had a laugh as if I was just a fool asking the most stupid common sense questions.
“Brent, I only give this gift to ones who are worthy of it.
In other words you are dark inside, you hid it under all that goodie two shoes you so called are.
I watched you from the day you were born something dark was there.”
I didn’t know what to say I never did anything that a demon might do.
“No…what did I do.” I said, trying to yell.
Angel left leaving me and Satan alone he watched Angel leave once she left he had a laugh then looked at me then said, “Brent, you don’t know but I watched you.
In a father like a father would want to know why I turned you.”
I only nodded once Satan had on his evil grin then came up to me then whispered in my ear, “Like I would ever tell you.
You should look in the mirror and see what you become.”
He stepped away slowly then had a slight shrug then left.
My heart kept sinking in deeper I saw a mirror and looked at it I came closer I was shaking I saw my skin had become flawless no mistakes as if I was a stature.
My eyes were yellow cat-like my teeth were all razor sharp canines.
No….no!
I sighed and put my hands on the table and looked down no…this isn’t happening to me…
I got on a white shirt on with trousers and ran out of the room with incredible speed everything I passed seemed a blur no one stopped me.
I ran home which didn’t take to long I stopped dead in my tracks I was shaking even more I thought I was so weak I might faint.
I saw my house was burnt to a crisp.
I covered my mouth I was on the verge of tears I ran over everything was ashes I looked around where my home was, I saw everyone who was at the party.
Burnt not moving covered in millions of ashes.
I saw a small body I knew whom it was…Aldabella.
I felt a tear run down my cheek I dropped to my knees I gently reached for her small body I held it in my arms her soft fair skin was burnt.
Her small face was covered in ashes; I brushed some of them off to so I could see her face.
Her little eyes were close, her thick blonde hair was lifeless, her ribbons fell out to easily.
As if she gave up all hope, if someone held hope in those ribbons it was gone once it touched the ground.
I saw my tears ran down and dripped onto her face.
I held her close to me I could feel my heart aching.
I was shaking I put her down gently I looked around I saw Jacob dead everyone dead…
“Why are you so emotional.” A voice said, while laughing.
I turned around there was Satan he was just standing there grinning.
“You killed them…” I said, in pain.
“Of course I did.
They were worthless anyway you have a new family.”
“No!
I don’t want this I want my life back!
I want my family back!” I hissed.
Satan didn’t even seem to hear my anger in my voice, “Son listen I can’t do what’s been done even I am not that powerful.”
“I am not your son!” I snapped.
My voice seemed more demonic now was…it the demon inside…
“You are here.”
Then one of Satan’s fingers turned to a claw it was very small yet the point seemed deadly, he gently cut his arm then a black drop of blood came out.
Then he came over to me then quicker then I could move he grabbed my arm then cut my arm to it was only a sting then I saw a black drop of blood…just like his.
“See you’re my son forever…your family is dead…and you are a monster forever.” Satan said, wickedly.
I sat up quickly from the nightmare I let out a sigh that night was the worse.
Waking up being a monster then finding out your family are nothing but ashes.
I got up slowly I got on the school uniform then jumped out my window without saying anything to anyone this morning.
At school I saw Robert who had the uniform on to, great…a whole year with him…joy.
“Hey so sorry about the other night, hard to think you still…holding on.” Robert sighed, rubbing the back of his head.
I said in a low voice, “You just don’t get it do you.”
“No, I know I feel bad for you.” Robert sighed.
I rolled my eyes then said, “They all say that, but I don’t believe anyone who says that not even you.”
Robert didn’t say anything he knew that was true I didn’t trust anyone or let a wall down for anyone.
I went to my class everyone was gossiping about some new students I rolled my eyes.
Great more snobby stupid demons, to add to the collection.
I sat in the back putting my feet up and leaning back.
One of the students looked back me although he looked away.
The teacher came in then said, “Take your seats.”
He had a Russian accent he had pale skin, black hair slick back he had bright green eyes with a red suit on with a black undershirt.
He was maybe 5’6.
The teacher said, “Take out your Edger Allen Poe Books and Brent get your feet off the desk.”
I said, “No.”
The teacher was surprised at my answer then said, “Now or I will send you to the Head Master office.”
“Come on we cant leisure in class?” I asked, with a cocky grin.
The students had a few quiet laughs to each other the teacher narrowed his eyes at me.
“Just…fine.” The teacher said he got a book and started reading a poem.
I rolled my eyes at the story it wasn’t my favorite subject, well I had no favorite subject.
At last the day ended everyone was outside talking or hanging out I didn’t stop to hang out Robert said, “So what are you going to do when you get home?”
“I don’t know.” I sighed.
Then Robert saw another vampire he lifted both of his eyebrows and went over to her and started flirting.
I shook my head then went home.
I got home just at that second Angel came over then said, “Hey, had a good day?”
She had on this small beautiful smile yet it was nothing but lies.
“What do you want Angel? I sighed, putting my hands in my pockets, and then leaning against the wall.
Angel stroked from my cheek then she let it slowly stroke down to my chin
“You, of course silly.
You are all I want.” Angel whispered, very slowly.
I narrowed my eyes at her I whispered almost hissing, “I don’t want you, I would never want you.”
“You want me like I keep telling you, why can’t you see what I see?”
Angel came closer so we were chest to chest, I glared at her then a servant came over to us he bowed then said, “Please let me escort you to the ballroom.”
“Of course.” Angel said, turning to him giving a smile then she took my arm and almost pulled me off my feet.
We walked down a long hall with many paintings, the walls were a dark red the carpet was black almost there weren’t many doors we came to a door it had double doors they were long and narrow they were a dark brown with many skull designs on them.
The servant pushed opened the doors there was a huge ballroom the roof was a dome shape there was one huge chandelier, which was dim.
The floor was a dark red yet it seemed like it just been clean on all the walls there were huge windows.
There was a woman she had brown hair in a neat bun, she had on a long flowing dress, it was a light red.
She had high heels on she had pale skin and dark eyes I think they were brown I couldn’t tell.
She stood there with her hands behind her back she watched us come in.
“Good evening Madame Collet, this is my prince.
Brent Hellure heard of him?” Angel said smiling.
“Prince Ayperos it’s a pleasure to meet you.” Collet said, bowing.
I sighed rolling at that name, the name of demon it belonged to.
The name Brent was just a cover-up name. A mask you could say that I would use as a tool, in hunting, so women would trust me more.
I didn’t make any comment to it I just said, “So why am I here…”
I looked at Angel raising an eyebrow at her, I wanted to go my room and be alone. And not be with Angel. Not of all of us can have what we want, or desire.
“Well she been my dance teacher ever since I was turned and if we are destined to be together we need to know how to dance at our wedding--" Angel said, before I cut her off.
“No, no, no.
One I know how to dance already I don’t need to repeat the lessons.
Second we aren’t destined to be together.
And third there will never be wedding involving me and you.” I growled low in her ear.
Angel pulled me out of the ballroom then closed the door she put her hands on her hips then said, “Brent listen every demon knows we will be together.
Please give us a chance…” Angel sighed softly grabbing my hand then gently rubbing it.
“I did, then you threw everything I gave to you away.” I hissed in her ear.
“Having problems here?” A dark yet voice filled with sarcasm.
We both turned there was Satan he had his hands behind his back he had on a long black cape with dark clothes under it having his pale skin stand out.
His dark red eyes glowed sometimes it was painful to look at.
He had his blonde hair tied back as always.
“Hello Lord just talking with my love.” Angel said, smiling.
I narrowed my eyes at her then sighed, “I am not in love with you…”
“Brent, just be a gentleman and bring her happiness it’s a prince’s job to be a lady’s man.” Satan said, with smiling evilly.
“Fine…” I groaned, but I didn’t accept it.
Satan left, Angel took me back inside the ballroom Collet said, “Ok, so come close don’t be afraid.
Then the girl put your right hand on the gentleman’s shoulder, now Brent put your hand on her lower back not to low just enough to hold her close to you.
Now Angel have your other arm on his back.
Good.”
Collet walked around us checking how good our form is.
“Good job you two, now Brent take a step in so then Angel you take a step back.
The gentleman he always guides the female, in the dance.
So now go on and you can go back, forward, right, left what ever way you want.”
I took a step to the left we kept dancing, Angel smiled then she leaned in then whispered, “Kiss me.”
I looked at her then whispered as we kept dancing, “No, I don’t love you.”
Angel stopped then said, “I will be back I need to fix my hair.” Angel said pushing her hair back she winked at me then left.
I made my escape sooner I leave the better; I went to the human world.
There was a town nearby it wasn’t the best town they had many struggles I knew why.
This area had many demons that weren’t really a demon, but they were humans possessed by demons who acted like a demon.
The roofs were made out of bamboo like grass the houses were made out of logs.
There was a town center with a stature it was on bad shape, there was a church at one end a watch tower no one was up there the ladder was broken in half.
The town people were going about their daily life then a few homeless people were in allies looking for food.
I went over to a barn-like house then looked in there was a small campfire going a group of people was around it.
“So cant believe demons are among us like that.” A voice sighed.
There was four guys together another one said, “Well son if there are angels there has to be demons.”
“I know but we have already lost a whole family to them
Expect for the girl.” A guy said.
“Yes, she was saved by a angel, well she has her friends to protect us.” A guy said.
I heard a little girl soft mourning I looked around for it then followed it to a alley she had a cut on her arm I knew this kind of cut.
I called them Human Demons she was attacked by one. Humans who weren't turned into demons, they had the demon inside, possessing them. Or they had abused them to do their bidding.
She had soft brown hair it was everywhere it was long she was only five.
She had on a small little pink dress on.
I slowly kneed down to her then said in a soft voice, “Hey…you ok?”
I wanted to touch her or help her but I didn’t want to frighten her even more, then she was.
She slowly looked up her eyes were a hazel yet they were bloodshot from all her crying, her skin was fair she had little chubby cheeks yet they made her look more innocent.
“…It came at me…growling.” The little girl said, shaking.
I said gently, “What did?”
“A…monster.” The girl said.
Then there was a low growl I slowly looked up then a man came out from the shadows.
His clothes were ripped they were covered in blood he had black hair all over the place he had pale skin yet covered in blood.
His eyes were jet black he grinned showing razor sharp teeth the girl was shaking then grabbed my arm she was squeezing it. Begging me to protect her, even if she didn't know me she was hoping I was more kind then the demon, after her.
“Both of you are dead…” The man growled.
The man ran I got up then grabbed the man by the throat then slowly choked him blood ran down his throat he was hissing trying to bite my hand but he couldn’t reach.
I tighten the gripped his head snapped back hard I could feel my muscle taking control of itself.
I could feel the demon inside he was doing this…
I could feel the man’s breaths inside his throat how the breaths went through it.
How it would start at his lungs then travel to his throat, I always had a knife in my boot I grabbed it then stabbed the man in the stomach he turned to dust then fell to the ground.
"I better go back inside, before humans see you and accuse you being a demon.
Well you are but you get my point."
A dark voice echoed through my head.
I held my head for a few seconds then the voice was gone I dropped the remains of the man in my hand I watched the dust fall to the ground slowly.
I saw the girl she was looking at me still I went over to her then asked, “You ok?”
“You…killed him…” The little girl said, in tears.
Should of planned that killed the man not in front of the girl.
Now she knows…well maybe she didn’t figure it out.
“What’d you mean?” I asked, gently.
The girl said, “You killed a demon.”
Then a woman showed up she had brown hair like the girl she had her hair down yet it was messy she had on a light blue dress on it was long and covered her feet she had fair skin and brown eyes.
“What do you think you’re doing!” The woman yelled at me.
She came over to me then glared at me she asked in a low voice, “what do you think you are doing…” The woman repeated with more rage.
“Saving your daughter...” I said, confused on why she would be angry with me.
“That’s isn’t your job to do.
You aren’t a Demon Hunter so if I was you don’t be a hero, if you value your soul.
And want to stay human stay away from demons unless you have proper weapons.”
I was trying to keep my voice leveled and keep it calm, “Listen I have a knife skilled with it."
“What if you were bit, then the soul sucked out of you…then you would have been one of them. If you are evil which you are.
Stay away from here don’t be a hero.”
She picked up her daughter then said, “If your new in town leave.”
I raised an eyebrow then said, “No 'thank you for saving my child'?
Besides I don’t live in town I live outside just came to get something.”
The woman rolled her eyes then left the small town it started to rain a bit I felt the hunger inside…
I went out to a dark part of the woods there was one path from two towns this was the only road that connected both of them.
People just walked past there a lot, so wouldn’t need to wait someone was always on that road. Like a busy road someone was always going to be on it. Yet because of how late it was and the weather was different.
I hid behind a tree I could hear footsteps somewhere although because of the hunger ignored those.
Then I heard some footsteps of an old man he was slowly walking I let my teeth come out and changed to their sharp canines form.
I let out a breath then went to attack him then I didn’t even reach him I was against a tree an arrow was ripped through my stomach and I tried to move but the arrow made every movement painful.
I held the wound and was letting myself catch a breath.
I looked up then there was someone it came through some light fog.
The person image was clear now, it was a girl about seventeen years old, she had long beautiful light brown hair it wasn’t brown or blonde it was a light oak color, she had fair skin two strong fierce sea mist eyes (a green bluish color) she had a hunter’s uniform on.
Which looked like something from the middle ages, it was black and gold.
She had on a small silver cross necklace on she had a bow and arrow set on her back it looked like she had a knife in her boot like I carried one.
She glared at me just disgusted by me…
“Your a monster from Hell itself.” The girl snarled.
I went to say something she said, “Don’t talk, I don’t want to hear the voice inside you.
Most likely just a dark voice like Satan’s voice…”
I watched her she came closer to me she got a knife then held it to my neck it was real close I could feel the blade resting on my neck I could feel the blade on my skin how easily it would be just to slit my throat open then she said, “How can a monster like you live forever and not feel guilt after all what you do, all the pain you give others.
Right I forgot you monsters aren’t human you don’t feel!”
I looked into her eyes I could see so much hatred towards me, as if a flame inside of her was only ignited when she saw my face.
As if I had ruined her whole life and she wanted me to die then nothing would cause her pain. Or if she would only smile once she would see me dead.
I studied her how her hips held her upper body up and strong her legs how long they were. She wasn’t the girl who was treated like a princess she defended herself and she was a girl who would hang out with the roughest boys, then easily kick their asses in a fight.
My teeth returned back to human again then I tried to say something, but the girl got the arrow and grabbed it then pushed it deeper in.
“Talk and I will slit your throat and burn your head once it rolls off your neck.
Then I will burn your body in a church and let God destroy you.” The girl hissed.
Well she wasn’t one of the hunters who were weak or were afraid to put up a fight.
I looked at her unsure what I should say I said knowing she wouldn't follow through in her threat, "Have we met. You act as if you hate me for destroying your loved ones."
"You are Satan's son. Am I correct?" She asked.
I nodded once, she sighed, "Not important."
"Your name perhaps?" I asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Katherine Gray. Friends call me Kayla, but you don't have the honor of calling me by either!" Katherine growled.
"What about horny crazy demon hunter?" I asked, with a cocky grin.
She glared at me and ran off into the fog I sighed and stood up and ripped the arrow heads out of me.
Well that was a fun meeting, I went to a bar in another town Robert was there he saw me and came over to me and said confused, "Why were you bleeding?"
"Ran into a horny demon hunter." I said, shrugging.
"Ah, is she dead." Robert asked, sitting down at a table taking a drink of beer. I looked at him and said in a low voice, "No."
"Why did you leave her alive? I am sorry if I sound like your father. Not nature for this to happen." Robert said confused.
"Don't know, she is lucky I didn't kill her." I said, looking out the window.
"Well you'll never see her again." Robert said, patting my back and leaving the bar.
The next day I strolled through town kicking a rock with my boot it looked like it was going to rain not many people were out it was the rain or something else. I didn't care if I got soaked from tears of angels from above.
It started to rain hard there was a homeless girl sitting she was freezing I sighed and walked over to her and said, "Why are you out in the pouring rain."
She looked up at me and said, "My parents were killed by a monster."
Damn demons they just love to screw with people's lives don't they.
At school the new kids arrived there she was the hunter from the other day, wow I didn't see this coming, but I guess this will add some twists to the school. No one knew what she was. There were other kids one was a guy he had short light brown hair, he was tall had strong muscles he stood by Katherine. He seemed seventeen as well, there was a girl she had black hair it was long she had hazel eyes and seemed sixteen. A group of demon hunters coming to a school for demons. Oh how is this for irony.
The girls sat together and the boy he sat behind the girls, he must be the leader in their section. Robert looked at me and said, "Is that?"
"Bingo."
"You should become friends with her." Robert whispered to me.
"What! No." I said, trying to keep my voice down.
"Well come on you don't need to become her sex friend. Come on give her a chance." Robert said, shrugging.
"A demon hunter and a demon. What are the odds." I said, rolling my eyes.
Robert had a slight smirk then said, "You need a human friend."
"So I can kill them?" I asked, whispering.
Robert shook his head and said, "No, you have your humanity, she is human. Might have you feel more, I dont know human around her."
After class I bumped into her she glared at me and said, "Oh it's you didn't think I would see you."
"Well coming into the Demon World where I sadly live and you didn't think I could be here." I said, leaning on the wall.
"So you don't live in the human world choosing to live in this world just proves the point that you are and nothing more then a monster." Katherine said low.
"What's your reason for coming here." I said, ignoring her insult.
"We are going to kill the royal family. One falls they all fall." Katherine said, looking at me.
"Well if you wanted me dead, you would of done it the other day." I said, coming closer to her.
She glared at me she couldn't do it here I looked down into her eyes that were filled with anger.
Although she didn't say anything to me now she walked away I simply smirked at her and went down to my class.
Back at home I didn't see this coming either I arrived home and threw my bag in the corner as always and there was a new demon's scent in the room.
There was a figure he was tall about 5'6 he looked nineteen he had short black hair he had red eyes he had on the school uniform.
"Well son I am glad you are home, this is our house guest his name is Dmitri.He will be staying with us until spring." Satan said, coming out of the shadows on the walls.
He looked at me he had his evil grin on just like the Devil himself.
"This must be the prince, it's a honor to meet you your highness." Dmitri said, bowing.
I exhaled and returned the bow to him, anyone else want to throw something at me?
I decided to take a morning stroll through a garden in the human world, no humans would come into this garden. There were roses everywhere, flowers from all over the world, were gathered in here. It was more of a healing grounds. All good creatures were welcomed into the garden. I sat down on a rock, that was next to a pond, with white fish that had a aura that made you stare at them forever.
"So the Prince of Hell, hangs out in a garden. Wow interesting." Dmitri chuckled, walking over to me.
I stood up and looked at him, "Why are you here?"
Dmitri smirked then leaned on a tree, and looked around the garden, "Well, this place looks untouched by the demon hand."
His hand changed into a demonic hand, he chuckled looking around, the look in the eye tells the truth, what is about to happen. Everyone shows it through their eyes first, that is how you can tell what to do next.
I grabbed his wrist tightly, then growled low, "Don't you even think about it!"
Dmitri looked at me, and yanked his hand away, I didn't let go I narrowed my eyes at him. This place was meant to stay pure, and clean of any blood. And I wasn't going to let him, ruin it.
"We should try and get along, after all we would be spending a lot of time in the same castle. I suggest we attempt to get a long." Dmitri said, shrugging.
"I don't get a long, with anyone." I growled low.
Dmitri yanked his hand away harder, then I let go of his wrist.
"Why, shouldn't I paint this garden in red?" Dmitri asked, raising an eyebrow looking at me.
"Hasn't the demonic kind done enough, this place needs to remain clean." I growled low at him.
A small girl was healing, a human solider. It was rare to bring humans in here, since this garden was off-limits to both human and demons. Dmitri was eying the girl, I exhaled then said, "Go back to Hell, I will be back by noon."
"And leave the prince unprotected. Demon Hunters would want your head, so would be a shame if you were hunted." Dmitri smirked.
I looked at him, "Why are you staying at the castle? What business do you have?"
Dmitri watched the girl some more, "That is between me and your father."
He chuckled then looked at me, as I narrowed my eyes at him, "I will return shortly, but for now leave me in peace."
He nodded, then took off from the garden. This garden, felt alive, as if this place had a giant heart under ground. Katherine sat in a bed of flowers. She had her hair braided, she sighed looking up at the clouds. She was human, but she was allowed into the garden. Maybe it was cause, she was human and the guardian didn't mind her. I would always try to hide from him or her, she was rumored to be a element. She took the form of a flower, and would protect the garden.
I slowly walked towards Katherine, she saw me and glared at me. "Amori!"
A flower started to shake, everyone who was in the garden, made a run for it. Expect for Katherine, she glared at me. I swear what is with her.
A woman, petals going around her head, they were a soft pink, her skin was a soft green, her arms were leaves, she was six feet tall, her eyes were a bright blue. Amori, was French for gentle love if I recall. So this was the guardian of the garden. "Why is a demon here?" Amori asked.
Everyone else was hiding, expect for Katherine, she probably wanted to watch the fight.
"I am allowed to enter, as long I don't hurt anything or anyone. All I wish to do, is relax." I said, as I looked at her.
Elements didn't like many demons, since most demons would destroy many elements homes.
"Never trust a demon Amori." Katherine spoke from behind the element.
The element looked at me, "Son of Satan..."
"A name doesn't define someone, it is simply a label." I exhaled.
Katherine stood next to the element, "I have been taught to never trust a demon, you should do the same."
Amori was silent, she screeched, and a vine came out from the ground and wrapped around my leg. I couldn't move the leg.
"May I take part in destroying him?" Katherine asked, turning her head towards Amori.
Amori nodded at her, Katherine raised her bow and arrow, and pulled the arrow back, all the way to the corner of her mouth.
she released the arrow, I ducked and the arrow hit a tree.
"Stop, what is the meaning of this!" The little girl wandered over to us.
She was the healer, she had short brown hair, her skin was dark toned, her eyes were a dark brown, she had on what looked like a night gown. "He is a demon, they're nothing but monsters." Amori said, looking down at the girl.
"No! Don't hurt him." The girl said, rushing to my side.
Amori let the vine go back into the ground, "Hunter, keep an eye on them."
Katherine nodded, and Amori disappeared into the ground and turned into a flower.
The girl looked at my leg, "You're bleeding! Come on we will get that fixed."
"There is no need, I can heal myself." I said, trying to make my way towards the exit.
"No! I will help you!" The little girl said, tears started to form in her eyes.
"I will stay if you want." I said, sighing looking at the girl.
She pulled me, where I first saw her. There were millions of flowers, a few small creatures were watching us.
"Please sit sir." The girl commanded, as she got some supplies.
I sat down in the grass, and pulled up my pant leg, there were some black thorns piercing my left leg. Katherine was watching from behind a tree, glaring at me.
The little girl came back, with a cloth and a large brown bowel.
"You're really a demon?" The little girl asked, trying not to make eye contact.
I sighed then looked at the girl. "Yes I am, but I wasn't always a demon."
"You weren't?" The girl asked, surprised.
"I was human, I had a family, friends and a real home." I said, looking at the girl rub the cloth on my leg.
The cloth had something on it, that felt like grease, I noticed the thorns had fallen off.
"You won't kill us, right?" The girl asked.
I looked down at her, and shook my head, "I won't hurt you or any living thing in this garden."
Katherine watched from a distance, she seemed to love children, but her hate for me appeared to remain the same.
Few weeks had passed I felt something inside of me I wasn't sure what it was...
Yet I knew I was going to regret getting out of bed today.
I couldn't get her out my mind, as if she was all my eyes could see, when you would look at a painting of an ocean, all I would see would be her, nothing else mattered.
No matter what I would do, she would be in front of the painting blocking it, with something more virtuous.
At school I was in the 'break room' I rubbed my forehead I felt two hands start to massage my shoulders, "What are you doing Angel." I said, annoyed.
What is it and ex's anymore, you go out with them you break up with them and some just won't you go. Women why do I even bother with them sometimes.
"What's you doing?" She asked jumping over the back of the sofa and sitting by me.
"None of your business."
She got up and went to the bar a school with it's own bar the students can use, well you dont see this everyday. But if you would think about it, none of us were really under age.
There was Katherine she was reading a book in the corner of the room I got up and walked over to her and took the book from her. The bar was in another room, and no one else was in the room so we were alone.
"What was that for!" She snapped.
I looked at her and threw the book she got up and said, "What do you want."
"My idiotic friend told me he likes your ass. Not my words." I said, putting my hands up as in a signal to tell to show not to attack me.
"You have friends surprising." Katherine said, rolling her eyes.
"Yeah you have seen him the vampire, with the black hair. That's him."
"Right the vampire who got his ass kicked by a female vampire?" Katherine said, raising an eyebrow.
"Yeah, glad he isn't my child." I said, rolling my eyes.
She started to leave but I blocked her path.
"Want something?" She said, low.
She was up against a wall I slowly leaned in and kissed her on the lips, she tried to fight then she gave in and our lips moved together they were slow but they wanted more passion.
What the hell was I doing.
At home Dmitri came out of a room he looked at me and said, "So I heard a rumor from Angel she saw you and the new girl kissing."
Crap why didn't I see this coming.
"So." I said, raising an eyebrow.
"If I see you with that girl or hear anything about a romantic relationship I will make your life more living hell then it already is."
People just love to make my life worse then it already is.
I sat in my room looking around the Demon World it was not much of a looker, some say that the look of Hell or the Demon World reflects on the inner demons.
Ugly, selfless and damned make up a demon. Might even make me up as well.
Katherine was at a graveyard she was at some tombstones she sighed as she read the names to herself quietly.
I walked over to her and read the names of the tombstones.
'Mary Gray' and 'Mark Gray'
Her parents I sighed and said, "I'm sorry."
"A demon sorry? Pfft haven't heard that one before." Katherine said, she sounded like she was choking on tears.
"Humanity is something which still lives inside of me, if I didn't have humanity I would of killed you as you cry and have your back to me." I said, looking down at her.
She stayed quiet I exhaled, "And I am sorry for kissing for you, didn't mean for things to go down like that."
"Then what did you want to happen me to start stripping for you."
"No, something took control me."
There was silence she got up and turned to me and said, "You don't have feelings for me do you. Only hate."
"Who said anything about hating...I think might have fallen for you."
"You think you love me? You don't know what love is!" Katherine said, shouting about to cry.
"May not know what your heart desires, but I know when I want something worth fighting for." I said, wiping away one of her tear.
It started to rain, I pulled her against my chest and hugged her softly her soft warm body made everything inside me shake with lust and temptation. I looked down and used my finger to lift her head up and I kissed her lips softly. She wrapped her arms around my neck. The rain was smoothing along with her heart beat.
I went to the library the next week I was getting a book for history class I sat in a chair in the middle of the huge library no one else was in here everyone was off in the human world doing 'extra homework.'
Katherine came in and sat on my lap I looked at her and said, "Hey, what brings you to the library."
"Oh a few reasons." She said, kissing me.
I forgot about Dmitri's warning. About seeing Katherine or Kayla.
"I shouldn't be doing this." I said, under my breath.
"Why?" Katherine asked, looking at me after the small kiss.
"Dmitri, a houseguest I guess you could call him."
“Why are you worried about him?” Kayla whispered softly.
“He told me I couldn’t kiss or talk to you, or he would make my life more of a living hell.” I whispered, into her ear.
“I don’t see a crow do you?” Kayla whispered, smiling.
It seemed as if Kayla was a different person it wasn’t that long she hated me now she loved me.
How’s that for irony.
I smiled and grabbed her and stood up I took her by the hand we went behind a few bookshelves I turned off the lights then kissed her on her soft rich lips then kissed her neck her skin was so soft I wanted to take off her clothes.
My hand slid down into her dress and pulled it down she unbuttoned my shirt quickly and took off my jacket I cupped her face in my hands she ran her hands down my chest quickly.
I held her closer to me I gently pushed her down and kept her down as I kissed her neck then chest her breast were soft as silk they weren’t small or to huge but perfect.
She sighed softly enjoying the moment.
So sweet, so perfect an angel who had been cast into darkness, yet she kept something pure in her.
A knock was at the door I jumped and stopped at that second I looked up someone was trying to get in the door was ratting like crazy.
Shit this isn’t good.
Kayla saw my expression then whispered, “What is it.”
“Someone is trying to break in…it’s…don’t know who.”
“What should we do.”
“Quick get your clothes on now…” I said low.
I got off of her and Kayla got on her dress on I couldn’t help but look at see her naked still.
I got on my dress shirt on and tried to button my shirt fast the board went flying and hit a bookshelf.
Kayla jumped a bit I looked at her stroking her cheek mouthing, “Be quiet someone is here…”
Kayla got up and hugged onto me we leaned against a bookshelf I had my hand over her mouth to keep her breathing steady.
I could hear the person’s footsteps looking around we were deeper in but they were coming towards us.
If it were anyone dangerous from Hell Castle it would be bloody in here…
I kept her mouth covered trying to put to much pressure on her mouth.
The shadow came closer then there was Robert…
Oh I am going to kill him for almost giving Kayla a heart attack and almost scaring my heart back to life.
“Oh hello!” Robert said, in a real high surprised voice.
I glared at him then took my hands off of Kayla, I sighed in relief.
“What the hell are you doing here.” I said, raising my eyebrow at Robert.
“I was getting a book the door was locked.” Robert said, pointing to the door.
I rolled my eyes annoyed at him I sighed trying to calm myself down, “Robert…you had to seem like you were going to kill us.” I said, in a low growl.
“Oh sorry, oh hey Kayla.” Robert said, looking at her.
“Don’t call me that, only a few people can call me Kayla.” Kayla said, narrowing her eyes.
“Oh sorry Mrs. Hellure.” Robert said, smiling and bowing.
“We are going to kill you.” Kayla and I said at the same time.
Robert smirked then ran out of the room I exhaled rolling my eyes.
I finished buttoning my shirt Kayla the way Robert left it seemed like she was afraid word would get out.
“He won’t tell sure you figured that idiot is my best friend.” I said wrapping my arms around Kayla.
“Hard to believe, you know you being all dead serious.” Kayla said, smiling then looking back at me.
I smiled then kissed her on the lips when she looked up.
“So can you tell me why you hated me so much…”
We were together in our secret garden Kayla was silent then she looked at me then said, “My family was killed by a demon…my home was burned to the ground with my parents inside I was inside but I was pulled out but my parents were dead when the fire was put out…”
“So your house was burnt down by demons?” I sigh looking at her.
“Yeah they do that to all the Demon Hunters I think trying to stop them, especially if they are young…” Kayla sighed as she remembered the painful memory.
“When was this?” I asked gently wrapping her in my arms keeping her close.
“It was 1862 on October 17th …umm at night…I think.” Kayla said, trying to think of when it happened.
I remembered that date….
The fire cracking in the thin air it reminded me of my family home burning down to the earth.
I could hear a small girl voice screaming for her parents I went to run I was going to save her and her parents.
Four arms grabbed me and yanked me back hard almost giving me a whiplash.
The hands had claws and sunk deep into my skin I let out a snarl of pain.
Satan smirked at me then said coming over to me, “Don’t even think about saving them.”
“There is a little girl in there!” I snapped.
Satan claws came out and slashed across my face the blood ran down my face I exhaled looking down looking at the blood dripping on the dirt.
“Don’t even think she deserves to live, she will kill us. Any other demon or vampire friend to you. You should feel grateful I am killing them.”
The claws seemed as if they still in my face it ran from my chin across my face up and across my left eye.
I growled low the grin on Satan face looking at me knowing I was in pain.
The girl kept screaming for her parents and the pain in her voice she would keep screaming, even if she was taking in a lot of smoke.
The demons kept me pulled back I still could feel the girl emotion as she was trapped.
I tried to pull away but the demons just let their grip get stronger blood was dripping out of my arms and shoulders.
The girl passed out I wanted to save her but I couldn’t move. She was using up all her air inside of her instead of trying to get out, she was hoping her family would save her, or find her.
“Well the girl will be dead by morning come on.” Satan said, in a dark voice and walking away having the demons pulling me with them.
“I wish could saved your parents.” I sighed looking at her.
“It’s ok…” Kayla sighed, wanting to cry but she held the tears back and faked it.
I wished I could of saved her and her family but I couldn’t do anything.
It made sense why she hated me before; I was the son of the monster who killed her parents. Me and Kayla have something in common Satan had killed our family. Wrapping us away for torture…
I yawned as I went down to the ballroom I leaned against the wall waiting for the dance teacher to come and teach Angel and me how to do the Waltz and more slow dances.
Why do I have to act like I love her, or even be near her, any other demon. No I had to get stuck with her.
The teacher came in with Angel behind her, Angel has on a dark red dress on she smiled coming over to me.
“Hello baby.” Angel smiled.
“Hello bitch.” I said, smiling down at her.
“Mr. Hellure watch your mouth!” The dance teacher snapped.
I rolled my eyes great dancing with her again this should last forever…
After we danced Angel came over to me, “My prince shall we attend the Winter Formal Ball?”
“Not together you can go have sex with any guy but not me.” I said in a low growl.
“When will you forgive, you know forever is a long time.” Angel said in a low sweet voice.
“I will hate you, you are nothing but selfish bitch.”
I looked at Kayla’s house she was home alone, I jumped over the fence and climbed the wall and knocked on the window she jumped at first her eyes were wide when she saw me.
She opened the window, “What are you doing here?” Kayla asked.
“I was thinking about you.” I said, with a slight smile.
Kayla had a slight laugh and stepped away from the window I climbed inside her room.
There were a few candles her bed was pushed against the wall, it was a double or full bed the cover was a light blue with a few pillows the wood was old there was a desk and a few diaries in a box under the desk.
“Luke can come up any time you know that.” Kayla said looking at me worried.
“I don’t care, I will handle it, besides you are worth dying for.” I whispered into her ear.
She smiled a bit then kissed my cheek gently I kissed on her sweet soft lips I cupped her face in my hands as I kissed her gently as I could.
We slowly backed up onto her bed I gently pushed her over onto the bed I had one of my hands on the back of her head she wrapped her legs around mine.
My throat started to burn my stomach was twisting and turning with pain.
Her scent seemed to be making me go blind.
I pulled away and stopped kissing her she looked up at me.
“What’s wrong?” Kayla looked up at me.
I closed my eyes and growled, “Kayla…get away from me…”
My eyes were trying to change I got up off of her bed and got on the other side of the room. My heart felt as if it would come out of my chest.
I wanted to kill her even more now, she was so addicting I wanted her. I didn’t want her to be dead though.
She was addicting as a drug yet not deadly.
I wouldn’t get high from her; I wanted more of the drug.
It only took one kiss one smell of her scent to feel the disease.
Her eyes were painkillers and her voice was heroine.
Although she would cause the fire inside of me torturing me, the thought of her dying sickened me but I wanted her soul.
“Brent talk to me…” Kayla said, placing her hand on my shoulder.
“No…leave me alone.” I snarled.
Kayla sat in front of me, my blood started to boil I didn’t want her to get killed by my hand.
“Why, are you in pain…Brent stop acting like this and tell me what’s wrong.” Kayla said, in a more motherly tone.
Come on let’s chill down, no matter how good she smells, let’s keep playing innocent good boy.
Everything stopped yet her scent still taunted me but I was under somewhat control.
“I should go.” I said, heavily.
I kept covering my eyes knowing they were still in demonic form she must be thinking I am a monster. The real me under skin rushing to the surface, if she was to see what I am truly, she will hate me more, and want to kill me.
My breathing almost seemed painful in my chest.
“Brent, come on talk to me.”
I removed my hands from my face it was human again, “It’s nothing…I’m fine now.”
Kayla kissed my cheek then wrapped her arms around my neck.
“You aren’t going to go…” Kayla asked softly.
I was unsure if I should go I wanted to go to protect her but I wanted to be with her regardless.
“I will stay.”
Her soft body was so fragile feeling in my arms; I needed to make sure I wouldn’t crush her bones.
I wanted to hold her tighter but I didn’t I watched her sleep I had slept most of the night but I had woke up from a nightmare and couldn't pull away from her, then she rolled over to me and opened her eyes.
“Morning.” Kayla whispered.
“Good morning to you beautiful.” I whispered, kissing her forehead.
Kayla smiled.
“There is a party tonight would you like to be my date.” I said in a whisper smiling.
“Katherine are you up yet?” Lucas called coming up the stairs.
Kayla bit her lip then pushed me off the bed I got up onto my feet and grabbed my shirt and jumped out the window and caught onto the side of the wall.
Kayla slipped on her nightgown,
Kayla said, “Now I am.”
Lucas walked in and closed the window before he looked out I climbed onto the roof and put on my shirt.
“Luke would want you to go on a date with him.” Lucas said, smiling.
“Oh sure.” Kayla said.
Lucas left the room, Kayla got up I jumped back in and looked at her she sighed knowing I overheard.
“It’s fine I am sure everyone in the Demon Hunter Society would prefer you to be dating St. Luke. “ I said, sighing leaning against the wall.
“Yes everyone would love for me and Luke to be together. But I don’t love him like the way I love you.”
“But they will force you to marry him you do know that…at least by your eighteenth…so I guess we only have a few more years. Then Luke will take you somewhere and raise a family.”
“How about we runaway…” Kayla asked looking at me seeing if that would be a good idea.
“Romeo and Juliet tried that and we all know what happened to them.” I said, looking out her window.
“Yes but this is different come on, you can escape your father. I can be with you.” Kayla said wrapping her arms around my neck.
I looked down at her and stroked her hair back then kissed her gently.
“I would love to do that, but how are we going to…make a clean getaway.”
“There is always faking death.” Kayla said, looking into my eyes softly.
“For you, it would be tricky for me to. I will figure something out.”
Kayla kissed my cheek, “Be careful.”
Dmitri was going to find out I am sure and then make my life more hell. Robert wasn’t at the graveyard I looked around thinking he had to be here we agreed to meet here a while ago. “Hey buddy.” Robert said, slapping me hard on my back.
“Well the slap on the back didn’t hurt if that was what you were trying to do.” I said, turning around and looking at him.
“I know but my bad I was late Annabeth was bugging me, you should spend more time with her.” Robert said, shrugging.
“Right I will do that later, but Robert aren’t you one bit worried about what we talked about last year?” I asked, raising an eyebrow at Robert.
“Yes but man chill out, we will fix it.” Robert said, shrugging.
“You are hopeless I question why I protect you.” I growled under my breath.
“You know you hate me but you can’t kill me…or you could damn…” Robert said, looking down.
“I will go check on Annabeth.” I sighed walking away.
Annabeth was laying on the roof top looking up at the sky I jumped up onto the roof.
“May I join you?” I asked looking at her.
“Of course, so what do you think of the Winter Formal Ball?” Annabeth asked sitting up and tucking her legs into her chest.
“ You really seem like you would want to go don’t you?” I teased smiling at her.
“Yes I want to go.”
“Go with someone, it takes two to tango.” I said, smiling a bit.
“But who…would be the other half of the moon.” Annabeth said, looking up at the sky.
“Anyone you love. Or have a passion for.” I said, looking at her how her skin glowed in the light. Her black hair was gently blowing in the wind.
“Robert doesn’t seem himself…” I sighed looking at Annabeth.
“What do you mean?” Annabeth asked, confused.
“I don’t know…” I said, sighing then shrugging once.
“Want me to talk to him?” Annabeth asked, getting closer to me.
“No, if something is wrong with him he could hurt you.” I said, shaking my head.
“It’s ok I am his sister.”
“I will be fine, Annabeth.” I said, softly.
“Be careful Brent.”
I walked down the street to an old manor smelling Robert’s scent there.
He was standing on the rooftop in the rain.
“Hey Robert why are you so alone.” I shouted through the rain, he turned around.
His eyes were blood red and his fangs were exposed.
“Oh why isn’t is the demon.” Robert said, rolling his eyes.
“You aren’t Robert.” I snarled, and jumping onto the roof.
“Smart boy.” Dmitri voice said, taking over Robert’s voice.
“What the hell Dmitri!”
“Right I can capture anyone and become them simple math isn’t it.”
I bared my canines at him then attacked him knocking him off his feet.
Dmitri growled then grabbed my leg and threw me off the roof, I caught onto the side of the roof and pulled myself up.
Dmitri was himself again and he grew black bat wings he bared his canine teeth his eyes and become red.
“I was never your friend you know that right. I am going to kill you now.” Dmitri said, in a demonic voice.
I lunged at him he flew up in the air I landed on my feet and started to control him and pulled him down into the ground.
I jumped onto a lower roof and bared my canines at him.
“I am going to kill you Dmitri!” I snapped.
“Oh is that so?” Dmitri said, in demonic voice then flying and slashing my shoulder.
He was up in the air again I exhaled then leaped up in the air and grabbed him and cut open his stomach.
His wings stabbed my stomach again and threw me down I went through the roof and went through the boxes.
Dmitri grinned evilly down at me and started a fire I jumped out and stabbed his chest with my claw he started to choke me then threw me off the roof and rolling down into a stonewall.
Dmitri slowly came at me I bared my canines at him and stood up and cut his face up.
I grabbed Dmitri and leaped up in the air and threw him down I got my claw and stabbed Dmitri in the heart.
He screamed out in pain and hit the ground he faded into darkness I hit the ground hard.
My shoulder was slashed open blood was flowing out, I breathed heavily listening to the flames infront of me, the house was burning down to the ground then it could creep my way.
I pushed myself onto my feet and looked around, no one was around.
Great, Robert was somewhere in the burning house he had to be.
I got up on my feet and ran inside.
“Robert?” I shouted.
“Over here.” Robert mumbled.
I ran over and he was in the basement in a cell with a chain collar.
“What happened to your shoulder?” Robert asked, faintly.
“Dmitri, but I think he is dead now come on.” I sighed breaking the bars and ripping the collar off of Robert.
“You look faint.” Robert said, standing up.
“I will be fine, come on you need some blood.”
I helped Robert out of the basement I exhaled and ran and leaped through the fire almost burning my right leg.
Robert was coughing up blood I picked him up and carried him on my back and ran fast as I could.
Annabeth saw us and her eyes were wide and opened the door and ran out to help us.
“What happened?” Annabeth asked, helping Robert off my back and carrying him inside and laying him on the sofa.
“Dmitri kidnapped him and been in his place for I don’t know how long. Then Dmitri tried to kill me so that is why I am loosing blood and must of made a trail.”
“We need to get Robert some blood he looks like he may die.” Annabeth said, going over to a closet where they store the blood bags.
Annabeth came back with four blood bags and laid them on the table.
I sat in one of the chairs across from Robert.
My shoulder was healing up but the blood was still coming out but it eased down now.
“You risk your life a lot…by any chance are you suicidal?” Robert said, laughing looking over at me.
“Oh well…umm how do I answer that…” I said, with a slight chuckle.
Annabeth grabbed a small animal and gave it to Robert so he could started drinking another animal.
“How’s your shoulder doing?” Annabeth said, coming over and sitting on my leg.
“It’s healing but it feels like if he had poison in his wings…but it’s healing.” I said, taking my shirt off.
Annabeth looked my wound and placed her hand gently on it.
“Annabeth why are you touching our friend?” Robert asked, chuckling.
Annabeth snapped out of it then got up, “Sorry anyway…umm I will be back later.”
Annabeth got up and left, Robert sat up and grabbed another animal but this one was a grizzly bear.
“She was weird just now, since when do friends touch each other?” Robert asked.
I stood up and walked over to him and slapped him upside the head.
“I don’t know.” I said, smiling evilly.
I closed the door behind me leaving Robert alone.
It was one night later I was leaving a bar it was growing chillier each night, fall was dying away and winter was coming.
“How did the date go?” Rosa asked walking with Kayla a few blocks away.
“It was nice, better then I thought it would.” Kayla said, with some happiness in her voice.
“So it seems like you might fall for St. Luke after all?”
“No.” Kayla said, rolling her eyes.
A low growl came after them and was following them.
The claws sunk into the ground, I felt the thoughts of the monster it was clear of what it wanted.
I jumped onto the roof and followed them the monster was invisible chasing the girls.
They went into an alley I watched them from above watching them.
Rosa screamed out in pain, Kayla was on the ground scrambling away from the invisible monster she had no weapon.
How do you fight something you can’t see?
I jumped in front of Kayla and grabbed Rosa if I yanked to hard I would rip her away from her leg.
My claws came out an I stabbed above where the blood was coming from and it snarled loud I yanked Rosa away it and Kayla grabbed Rosa into her arms.
The monster snarled it sounded like a rattlesnake and a lion growling.
“Brent where did you come from!” Kayla asked, snapping almost.
“From the roofs.” I said, looking back at her then back at the monster.
I jumped back a growl came from the air I grabbed Kayla and Rosa and climbed the wall and jumped onto the roof the wall of bricks came down and maybe crushed the monster.
Although the breathing was strong still, it was still alive.
“You two run now, get Rosa out of here Kayla.” I said, standing up.
“No I am not leaving you here.” Kayla said, looking up at me but holding Rosa in her arms,
“You are worried about me, I killed many demons, vampires, werewolves and other killers. I will be fine…always am.”
“I want to help kill that thing.” Kayla said, wanting to help,
“Kayla listen to me, I can’t see that thing it will kill you in seconds.” I snapped.
I snapped my fingers at her, “That is how fast it will take you to get killed!”
Kayla sighed looking away my tone was harsher then I thought it would be.
“Just go now…it will kill you then Rosa then anyone else it wants!”
Kayla helped Rosa up then ran off, with her.
I rolled my eyes then looked down at the wall, the bricks fell off it rattled again then jumped up I went flying back and into another alley it snarled I could hear the claws tapping on the walls.
It was climbing down I pushed myself back and climbed onto the wall and went up the wall.
It jumped onto the wall god what was this thing, if it was one of Satan’s demons I am impressed.
I jumped into a alley and ran through it I shoved a building down blocking its path I ran out of the alley before the building fell on me.
The monster jumped over the fallen building.
This thing just won’t die…I ran out of the town to avoid more deaths, there was an old factory they closed it because it was to dangerous.
I ran inside and locked the door even though I knew it wouldn’t hold I climbed the wall and jumped onto a platform.
The door went flying in i grabbed a sharp pole and dropped some saw dust and knocked it over was able to see the thing I grabbed the pole and stabbed it into the monster’s back it snarled and knocked the platform legs out from under my feet I jumped onto the wall and clawed into it.
It shook off the sawdust and lunged at the wall I jumped up higher and clawed into the wall again there was a loud banging under me.
There was a clawing under me what was this thing it was starting to piss me off.
A deep slash cut into my leg I snarled then my hand and arm became more like the demon color and shape I slashed hard as I could at it’s face where I was guessing where it was.
My leg healed up once the teeth came out.
“Show your self!” I snapped baring my canines.
There was a rattle only I jumped onto the ground and the monster claws sunk into the ground I looked at a pile of wood and trash i lifted one and threw it at the monster then got the nails and threw it at the feet it hissed angrily.
What now I looked around there was a old fire place I started a fire and grabbed a wood then threw a piece of wood on fire and threw it at the pile of wood the monster was by.
It seemed as if it reared back.
A wall of fire formed fast I looked around the monster heart was beating still.
What is it going to take to kill this thing?
It leaped over the wall I jumped back and climbed the wall again and punched a window out and grabbed onto the roof and flipped up the roof was falling apart if I stepped in the wrong part I would fall in.
The monster was trapped inside I jumped onto another roof then my fingers moved slowly then I clutched my fingers together and the roof fell in.
It wasn’t dead yet, oh god this thing isn’t going to give up!
A vampire jumped behind me and tackled me pinning me to the ground I bared my canines at him my eyes changed to their demonic form.
God I just don’t get a break anymore.
My fangs sunk into the vampire neck it yelled in pain I kicked him hard in the stomach then punched him off of me then I got up pinning him down my hand turned into a claw and I slashed him up.
My hand was covered in blood I exhaled the monster was trapped inside the building but it was still alive.
“Brent are you ok?” Kayla asked running over and climbing the ladder.
I had my back to her I was trying not to show her the ‘evil’ side of me. Or the more demonic side of me.
“Still undead, let me check.” I said, with a slight laugh.
“Is the thing dead?” Kayla asked coming closer.
“No I been trying to kill this thing for a while.”
“Brent…your leg looks like it got you.”
“Yeah but it healed somewhat.” I said, heavily.
Kayla placed her hand on my shoulder.
“Don’t touch me.” I said, heavily.
Kayla turned me around my canines were sharp and covered in blood and my eyes were burning with rage.
“This is what I am really…” I said, in a demonic voice, making her back off.
Kayla slowly backed away she sighed, “What do you want me to do that thing is still alive…”
“Just go and be with Rosa.” I said, in a demonic voice.
“No listen here ass I am a Demon Hunter I have to help you, weather you like it or not!” Kayla snapped.
My teeth formed back into a normal appearance and my eyes faded back to their dark grey.
“There is the little stubborn girl I fell for.” I said, smiling.
“Well we must be a perfect couple, since you are a stubborn spoiled brat.” Kayla said, smiling having a come back.
“You are such a princess.” I said, smiling using a darker tone of my Italian accent.
“Why thank you.” Kayla said, placing a hand on her heart.
A growl came from the building, where here comes the pain in the ass.
“I’m impressed Brent…very impressed.” Dmitri said, coming out form the fallen building.
“You are dead! I killed you a few nights ago I saw you die.” I said, growling low at Dmitri.
“Yes, so you thought but come on do you honestly think I am that easy to take down?”
“I had my hopes.”
“My, my I was right about you and Kayla, clever me.” Dmitri said, smiling looking at us.
“You knew already and threat to make my life more hell then it is already is, if I kissed her and yeah you know the story.” I said, waving my hand around and sighing.
“Yeah well I must admit she is something beautiful.” Dmitri said, grinning at Kayla.
“I should grab a gun and shoot that ugly thing on your neck you call a head.”
“Oh she is frisky.” Dmitri said, smiling and raising an eyebrow.
“Were you that demon that was just under…” I asked raising an eyebrow.
“Oh I am not allowed to say.” Dmitri said, jumping onto the same roof.
Kayla reached into her boot and pulled a knife out and held it tight.
“Oh sweet heart no need to so serious, your boy friend is so dead serious, the only dead thing about him is his ability to laugh.” Dmitri said, looking at me and grinning evilly.
The flames behind him added some effect to that grin of his.
“Oh I hate you. Good job you have made the hate list,” I said, rolling my eyes.
“Oh I must be as diabolical as your father is right?” Dmitri said, taking a step closer.
“Take a step closer and I will kill you.” Kayla snapped.
“Oh sweet heart if you can’t kill Prince Ayperos what makes you think you can kill moi.” Dmitri asked, using a French accent.
“He isn’t like you.” Kayla hissed.
“Maybe, but doesn’t mean deep down inside he isn’t the real monster. All demons are the same.” Dmitri said, coming closer but he was aiming towards Kayla.
I was watching Dmitri carefully I could see that look in his eyes he was up to no good, god how much I wanted to kill him now.
“Why are you in love with him, do enlighten me, what makes him more then St. Luke?”
“I am not telling you.”
“So Brent you, what makes her special.”
“She isn’t a bitch.” I said, smiling almost innocently.
“So charming aren’t you.” Dmitri said, crossing his arms.
“Oh you know I have to be charming.” I said, shrugging, but getting Kayla closer to me.
Dmitri grabbed my shirt and yanked me away from Kayla and threw me over his shoulder and slammed me face first in the ground.
“I am going to kill you this time.” Dmitri growled low.
His wings emerged from his body and started stabbing me in the back repeatedly
My front right claw came out I slashed at his wing, but that didn’t stop him.
Dmitri snarled in pain, Kayla had a gun in her hands aiming at Dmitri.
“I will kill you if you try to kill Brent!” Kayla snapped.
I find this somehow embarrassing but very hot.
“Your little human lover is saving you…this must be a little embarrassing.” Dmitri smirked.
“Get off of him!” Kayla snapped.
Dmitri got up and looked at Kayla looked at me I was reading her eyes I could see a plan.
Kayla shot at Dmitri in the neck but he pulled the bullet out with ease.
Dmitri came closer to her, she shot at him again I got up slowly then grabbed Dmitri from behind and held him in a chokehold.
“Shoot him now!” I snapped.
Kayla nodded then shot Dmitri in the heart.
Dmitri screamed in pain his wings spread out this isn’t good…
Dmitri flew up in the air his claws started to sink into my back he smirked then dropped me in the fire.
God why me, I looked up Dmitri grabbed Kayla and ran off.
“Get your hands off of me!” Kayla shouted.
Then there was a snap and then dead silence, only the sounds of the flames cracking the air.
I hate my life.
Jason,Ella Annabeth and Robert were there when I opened my eyes again.
Jason and Ella were just a few people I would talk to every now and then.
“He is like a cat he has a lot of lives.” Robert said, looking at Annabeth he had no clue I was awake now.
“I heard that…” I said, narrowing my eyes at Robert.
He almost fell out of his chair he looked at me.
“I meant it in a good way.” Robert said, staring at me.
“Oh my god you are ok!” Annabeth said, hugging me.
I hug her back gently, she smiled sitting up on my chest.
“You were somewhat burnt but it healed mostly.” Annabeth said, looking at my neck.
It was healing slowly but I hadn’t fed in a while so it taking longer for it to heal.
“If Ella didn’t find you would be burnt and dead.” Jason said, looking at me.
“I sensed something wasn’t right, I searched everywhere for you and I found you passed out bleeding in flames.” Ella said, coming over to me.
“Wait…where is Katherine?” Robert asked, blinking a few times.
“Dmitri took her…I don’t know where he took her.” I said, sitting up.
“I been searching it so blurry I cant see her.” Ella said, sighing.
“I am going to find her.” I said, pushing my self up.
“You can’t go there alone.” Annabeth said, help me up.
“Who wants to go.” I said, looking around the room.
“Well we are friends forever…and I mean forever I will go.” Robert said, getting up.
“Ella what could you tell from the feeling and the area.” I said, standing up.
“In the Rocky Mountains it was dark and a castle.” Ella said, thinking of what she saw.
“Alright Robert let’s go.” I said, grinning diabolically.
“Well good luck guys.” Jason said, shrugging then kissing Ella on the cheek.
PART 2
The town five hours away from the mountains they seemed afraid for some reason.
What happened here?
Both Robert and me had dark brown robes on and we were hiding out in a barn/blacksmith shop.
I sighed looking at Robert, “She must be important to you.”
“Yeah, what is wrong with these people?”
“I don’t know but got a bad idea we could just stay hidden for now.” I said, letting my eyes stay their demonic form to see everyone in the village.
Robert was looking around the shop.
“Nothing is here, how are we going to get to the castle?” Robert asked.
“Shut up.” I hissed.
We went out with the hoods up and our heads down.
“Who are you two!” A voice yelled coming closer.
“Run Robert.” I snarled under my breath.
Robert nodded then ran off into an alley I ran into another alley. The guy yelled something in another language.
I ran and tucked behind the wall.
More villages were coming out, they weren’t human they were some weird werewolf.
I saw Robert he was fine right now I jumped up into a window.
A ladder was thrown up I pushed it down then choked five of the humans and killed them.
The moon was raising this wasn’t going good once the moon was high up everyone would become a werewolf. And it will be hell since they are powerful, I couldn’t kill them all since I was weak still.
If there was a leader of the pack and the deadliest kind of werewolf he could easily turn Robert into one, then the wolf will eat out of his chest and kill him, and the wolf will run around will the vampire mind…
I looked around and went to the other side of the room and looked out the window the moon was almost high, Robert was cornered.
I jumped out the window and ran through the town center more people saw me. I jumped onto the roof and was above Robert, looked up and jumped up I grabbed him fast and pulled him up.
“The moon is only a few seconds away from the point of them turning.” Robert said, breathing heavily.
“Oh really Sherlock?” I said, rolling my eyes standing up.
There were millions of groaning of pain and screaming.
“Run… Now!” I snapped, we ran across the rooftops, the wolves were jumping onto the roofs.
“Ok Robert what did you steal or who’s daughter did you sleep with!” I snapped, as we ran.
“Well…” Robert said, with a slight chuckle.
I rolled my eyes at him then a wolf grabbed Robert and ran off into the forest.
I exhaled then jumped down and watched them run off, I could steal a horse or chase them on foot.
The horses were to scared right now so on foot it is.
The wolf growled low at Robert it was the Alpha god why me, my claws came out both hands I stabbed the wolf in it’s back leg, it turned around and lunged at me I climbed up a tree and knocked it over and jumped down and slashed it’s back then grabbed Robert and ran into a mine and I took down the entrance.
“The Alpha wolf growled and ran off he gave up and went back to the village.
I let out a breath in relief, it was closer then I thought it would be.
“Suicidal is still my claim.” Robert said, laughing.
“I saved your life, come on this mine is huge we have to make sure we can get to the mountains and into Dmitri’s castle.”
“Alright chief.” Robert said, walking into the mine.
I followed him then let my eyes adjust to the light and they changed to their demonic form again.
“Wait…someone is here.” I said, stopping Robert from walking.
“Yeah us.” Robert said, shrugging.
I ran to the direction where the person was it was a boy he was passed out his leg was broken.
Robert helped slide the boy out.
“He is going to die.” I sighed seeing his color slowly change from red to blue.
“Wait, if he has blood he could live.” Robert said, looking at the boy.
“It won’t work.” I said, shaking my head.
“Tell…Lucas…I love him big…brother---.” The boy mumbled before dying.
“Oh holy crap…is that Lucas, Luke left hand man.” Robert said, staring at the boy then slowly at me.
“Oh great now we can tell them when we get back.” I said, rolling my eyes.
“He has a map, of the mines.” Robert said, grabbing the map from the boy’s pants.
“Ok…oh there is the exist to get to Dmitri’s castle.”
After hours of walking we reached the exist which led to Dmitri’s castle.
I put the hood back on and looked at Robert, “Ok spilt up you can find a way in from the back of secret way in I will take the more risky and fun way in.” I said, grinning and fixing the robe.
“Oh come on wouldn’t it be better if we both took the sneaky way in.” Robert asked confused.
“Well where Dmitri would be in his ‘throne room’ or his room. So if we meet up at one point we can spilt up again one can go find Katherine the other one will keep Dmitri away or busy.” I said, looking around making sure no one had seen us.
“Who would go and find her?” Robert asked.
“You can deal with the little stubborn girl, if she being difficult pick her up and put her on your shoulder carry her like a sack of potatoes.” I said, smirking.
“Well aren’t you a gentleman, ok I will go and you be careful not to get your ass kicked like last time.” Robert said, laughing he ran off and jumped over a wall.
I exhaled then made sure I kept my head low and I walked over to the wall and jumped over and went inside no one was around yet.
It wasn’t like Hell Castle, Dmitri was more run down and stone like. I looked around trying to find Dmitri.
There were people who came from a hallway all had grey robes and one had red. They were chanting something in a different language I ran behind a pillar and climbed up and jumped across and landed on a walkway.
They didn’t see me and they kept walking, I looked at the people they looked brainless. It was disturbing somehow…
I looked around the castle there were millions of brainless things around and vampires, but Dmitri was the only demon around, i tried to only sense the demons around I found him but the only way to get to him was to follow those brainless things…meaning blending in.
I jumped down and followed them I got in the back and followed them; I was going to get caught since my robe was different. They kept walking but one stopped it turned slowly I got ready to kill it but once the group was gone the person took off their hood it was Luke?
“Luke what are you doing here?” I asked, trying not to bare my canines at him.
“You let Katherine get kidnapped, she could be dead I made a promise I would protect her forever until her heart stops beating maybe even after that.” Luke hissed.
“Listen here Luke, I was trying to kill Dmitri and protect Kayla if you didn’t teach her to be so passionate about killing demons she would been safe and with Rosa.” I snapped.
“I should kill you then kill Dmitri then find Katherine and take her to a better life. Away from you and all this other crap.” Luke said, narrowing his eyes.
“You are going to get killed, I can’t be sensed but humans have a scent they will find you and kill you.”
“So I am going to get Kayla out of here.”
“Well too late Robert the vampire he is on it, and I am going to take care of Dmitri.” I said, walking away.
“I am going to…’help’ you.” Luke said, making air quotes with his fingers.
“Well then shall we find Dmitri the ass?” I asked, grinning.
Luke rolled his eyes and started walking.
Robert had to find Katherine fast but we had to find Dmitri even faster so we could have another plan in motivation.
We ducked into a storage closet I looked at Luke then said, “I over heard Dmitri is throwing this party, so if we can act as waiters or butlers Dmitri is bound to show up. And we can maybe get him alone and talk.”
“If your vampire slave isn’t fast enough, Dmitri won’t be the only one who will die tonight.” Luke hissed then went out in the hall.
Is that a threat?
Robert went down into the basement he looked at a golden hole, and then looked around for anything to stick in it.
There was something in a cage Robert went over to it a snake was wrapped around the key. It lunged for Robert’s hand he jumped back, looking at the snake he bared his fangs then grabbed the key and bit the snake’s head when it attacked Robert’s hand.
Robert unlocked the wall it turned and Robert went down a spiral of stairs.
“Katherine are you here?” Robert asked.
“Robert?” Kayla asked.
Robert ran over to her and said, “Yep, and why hello.”
“Just get me out of here before it comes back.” Kayla sighed, looking around.
“What are you talking about?” Robert asked, confused.
“Where is Brent?” Katherine asked, concerned thinking he was dead.
“I am not sure come on.” Robert said, breaking the door down.
I got on a white dress shirt and a dark red jacket and black dress pants and a black tie.
Luke had the same uniform, “Come on let’s go find Mr. Ass.
As you call him.”
I smirked before we went into the dinning hall.
Luke nodded then went ahead and went to the kitchen to do his ‘job’.
I walked around the dinning room everyone was dressed up and talking to one another.
There was Dmitri he saw me and smiled tapping on a railing he was above the room he watched me. He walked off back into the hall.
Well that didn’t take to long to find him.
I walked around into the crowd but he had spotted me, I found Luke he was serving a family with four kids and one parent.
“Luke I found him, meet me in the hidden room when you can.”
I went up the stairs and went down the hall.
There was a hidden door I opened it there was Dmitri sitting in a loveseat made out of corpuses and hair.
There was a river of blood and the light came from the fire around the loveseat.
“Welcome Brent, back from the dead once again. I am impressed.” Dmitri said, smiling evilly.
“Oh what can you say? I will keep coming back over and over.I said, shrugging.
“I am surprised you aren’t a killer like your father. You would be the world’s most fear killer.” Dmitri said, crossing his legs and tapping on the chair arm.
“What is going to take to take you down.” I snarled low.
“Oh my, my I am not going to give away any secrets.” Dmitri said, rolling his eyes but smiling.
“What’s with this party? Is it when everyone watches you kill yourself.”
“Haha no. They are going to witness you becoming loyal to me.” Dmitri said, standing up.
Dmitri eyes changed to their demonic form he growled low and tackled me then started to choke me and threw into the wall.
Ouch…I fell onto my hands and knees why didn’t I hunt before coming here to fight.
Dmitri grabbed my shirt and yanked me up but I still was facing the ground.
“Little boy you seem faint.” Dmitri said, using Satan’s voice.
Dmitri smirked his claws went right through my stomach I coughed up some blood.
I pushed my self up but Dmitri kicked me in the ribs. I laid on the ground trying to breathe still but Luke wasn’t here anymore he was with…Kayla and Robert.
“Oh my I wonder what daddy will say when you are helping me which means him.” Dmitri said, looking down at me.
Where the hell was Robert? Or Katherine. Luke?
“Where are they.” I hissed low.
“Who, your friends who the vampire, and the humans. They are enjoying themselves.” Dmitri whispered in my ear.
I pushed myself up but Dmitri pushed me down again.
“You are weak I could kill you but I don’t want a dead prince in my room. So come on.” Dmitri said, waving his hand a guard came in.
He grabbed me and placed me on a sofa and left, I bared my canines at Dmitri smirked and came out and stabbed an Oltiz knife in my right leg.
“Bring a human in for the good sir.” Dmitri said, turning to one of his guards.
The guard nodded then went down to the dinning room.
“Why are you helping me.” I snarled low.
“You are no fun when you can’t fight back. I grew bored of me being stronger then you. So if you are strong like me. It will be more fun.” Dmitri said, shrugging then pouring himself some red wine.
“I will give you some, if you promise to help me, not now but in the future.” Dmitri said, taking a sip of the wine.
“The wine isn’t that good enough for me to make a deal with you.” I said, sitting up a little.
“Maybe Katherine is more of quenching wine for you?” Dmitri smirked evilly.
The guard came in with a girl she had dark red hair blue eyes and a red dress she was shaking.
The guard pushed her down into front of me Dmitri yanked the knife out I got up god I was so thirsty I needed something now. I grabbed the girl and sunk my canines into her chest and sucked the soul out slowly then moved down to her breast and bit into her breast and sucked the soul out it didn’t take long but she was dead and my mouth was covered in blood.
I was breathing hard Dmitri smiled then patted on my back.
I wanted more Dmitri was waiting for me to say something.
My stomach had healed I was feeling stronger.
“You didn’t need to make me do that.” I said, heavily.
Dmitri grabbed me and threw me onto the sofa and got a knife and threw it at me stabbing me in the stomach again.
“Now…” Dmitri said, shape shifting into Katherine. Oh that bastard.
“Brent please don’t be like this. You aren’t human but I love you even though you are destined to become evil…”
“You aren’t her!” I snapped.
Dmitri became himself again and glared at me his wings grew more demonic and sharper edges.
He grew horns on his head and sharper teeth.
“You know you can’t kill me, so just give up the fight Brent. You are the second powerful demon use the gift.” Dmitri hissed.
“No…” I growled low.
“Well you will just have to stay here, I will tell your friends you are busy. Guard make sure he is down good.” Dmitri said, leaving the room.
I bared my canines at the guard had some weird mask thing but it seemed like half a helmet.
He came closer he wasn’t afraid damn.
A few hours passed I woke up laying on the sofa I couldn’t breathe had some kind of muzzle on I tried to open my mouth then it squeezed some Oltiz in my mouth I coughed up blood there was stakes of Oltiz that would go into my cheeks if i tried to take it off.
“You look somewhat comfy.” Satan said, stepping out from the shadows.
“What the---.” I said, holding my head, in pain.
“Looks like Dmitri is smarter then I give him credit for.” Satan said, coming closer to me.
I glared at him and barely bared my canines at him.
“If you still wish to talk to me you know we can talk through mind, and I will talk to you like this.”
“Why are you here, don’t you have anything else better to do.” I snarled sending the message to him.
“Yeah but come on I wanted to check up on my son.” Satan said, darkly.
I felt sick to my stomach it was the Oltiz burning up my stomach.
“Get this hell trap off of me.” I growled low towards him.
“I don’t know you seem more trained with that on. I will keep that on you will know your place soon enough.” Satan said, darkly then returning to the shadows he was gone.
“Get back here you bastard!” I snarled through mind.
I got up and looked around I was alone where was Robert? Luke had left with Katherine.
I sighed then Dmitri walked in, “Well how did the visit go? Oh that muzzle looks good on you.”
“I can’t talk with this on.” I mumbled low not moving my mouth much.
“I know, your little vampire friend he is hell, see.” Dmitri said, looking at a wall his eyes changed to light blue and a scene of where Robert was.
He had his shirt off he was screaming in pain blood was running from his chest and arms he was breathing heavily a vampire laughed at him, then got a stake Dmitri cleared the scene from the wall.
“What are you going to say?” Dmitri asked, evilly.
“Stop…torturing him.” I whispered, I got some Oltiz in my mouth I gagged on it and coughed some blood out.
“Well what you don’t know is this vampire needs to teach Robbie a lesson an eye for an eye right?” Dmitri said, darkly.
I tackled Dmitri he kicked me off of him and I went flying into the wall.
“Now will you make a deal with me?” Dmitri asked grinning looking at me.
Robert was dragged in and was thrown on the ground the muzzle was removed Robert was dying he coughed up blood.
“What happened to you we were supposed to meet me in the liquor room!” Robert snapped.
“I was going to keep Dmitri busy…Luke was here. He left with Katherine in case you weren’t aware.” I sighed looking at Robert on his hands and knees.
“I figured after she didn’t come and help you.” Robert said, rolling onto his back and looking up at me.
“Right, so who was torturing you?” I said, looking over at Robert. Trying to think of who might want to get back at him.
“I can think of three, but it was Annabeth ex boyfriend that tried to kill me.” Robert said, looking up at me.
“Aren’t ex’s wonderful?” I said, grinning at Robert.
“They are the cherry on top.” Robert said, using a fake French accent.
“Come on let’s leave.” I sighed helping Robert up.
“Where is Dmitri?” Robert asked looking around.
“He…got away.” I said, trying to think of what to say.
“Again, ok I am glad you aren’t a police officer.” Robert said, walking out.
“Why is that?” I asked, calling out after him.
“You would suck at your job. You let people out of your possession way to easily.” Robert said, looking over his shoulder and laughing.
I rolled my eyes and laughed softly and followed Robert out of the room.
The Winter Formal was coming soon I hated to go to dances or anything like it. It was boring nothing happened all that went on was dancing.
“Brent.” Robert whispered over to me.
“What.” I said, looking over at him annoyed somewhat.
“Looks like Katherine is ok.” Robert whispered, smiling.
I looked over she was behind us I turned my head to look at her. She smiled at me I turned back to face the front.
“What was that about?” Robert whispered.
“What do you think, I don’t get a break anymore.” I hissed low.
“What went down with you and Dmitri?” Robert asked, raising an eyebrow.
I looked over there was Dmitri in his seat he looked over at us, waiting to see what I would say.
I looked back at Robert, “Swearing fist fighting, more swearing average guy stuff.”
“I see.” Robert whispered.
After class ended Robert went off to find a girl to talk with I got up and left the class Kayla grabbed my arm.
“Sorry I knew you were there the other day, I tried to have Luke help me find you, but he didn’t want to. I know Dmitri hurt you.” Kayla said, loosing her grip on my arm.
“Did he propose to you?” I asked, in a low voice.
“What? No! I love you still do you still love me?” Kayla asked, looking into my eyes.
I exhaled but kept my back to her then turned to her and stroked her cheek then leaned down then I kissed her on the lips.
I had no idea why I did that in public when anyone could see us.
“I thought you were dead…damn you just won’t die.” Luke said, coming over to us.
“Oh St. Luke thank you for coming to help me.” I growled low, looking at Luke.
“You believed I would help you. I was only tagging along to save Katherine.” Luke snarled at me.
“Luke you could of saved him!” Kayla snapped.
“I could of but he deserves to die.” Luke snarled low.
“Luke!” Kayla snapped.
Luke grabbed Kayla by the wrist and pulled her to him, “You are coming with me.”
“Hell no.” I growled low, making Luke stop in his tracks.
“Say that again.” Luke growled coming closer to my face.
“Hell no…”
Luke narrowed his eyes then before he could do anything Robert came over to us.
“Luke, Lucas has gotten into a serious fight if you don’t hurry up he will die.” Robert said, gesturing his head towards where Lucas was.
Luke dragged Kayla off.
“Lucas isn’t really in a fight getting his ass kicked is he.” I said, smirking looking at Robert.
“Well Luke had a knife ready to stab you, so needed so say something witty.”
“So you do care if I live or not.”
“Annabeth would hate me, since if our master dies. She can’t go to the beach.”
I had a slight laugh then said, “Well come on…”
Dmitri was watching me from around the corner I sighed then went over to him.
“Someone is getting more fearless aren’t we?” Dmitri said, slyly.
“What the hell are you still doing here?” I growled low.
“I am hanging out with my friend.” Dmitri said, darkly and smiling.
There was Angel she came up to us smiling, god why is she here?
“Hello my love.” Angel said, stroking my cheek.
“My, my it looks you two got some history.” Dmitri said, looking at me and Angel.
“Brent look at me.” Angel said, softly.
Angel smiled coming over to me, she was naked and she wrapped her arms around my neck.
“It’s ok it’s what we do.” Angel said, sweetly.
“We never killed a child like we did.” I said, looking at the wall.
“Shh, look at me look at me.” Angel said, cupping my face in her hands.
“It’s ok I’m here.” Angel said, kissing my neck.
I leaned down and kissed her on her lips she slid her tongue around in my mouth.
I grabbed her and we fell onto the floor, I pinned her down and I licked her breast.
She smiled as she licked my chest I gently bit her neck.
“See I am amazing.”
“Oh yes…”
Angel took off my trousers and smiled looking at me.
“Come on you know you want it.” Angel said, low.
“Are you even paying attention?” Annabeth asked, tapping her foot.
She had a short yellow dress on and she was looking at me.
“What?” I asked yawning.
Damn why do I keep thinking back to Angel and me.
“Come on help me learn to Waltz. You are really good at it.” Annabeth said, smiling.
I got up and took off my jacket and I took her into the first position.
She was cold against me I could see how warm inside her eyes were with us together.
“Now most of the time the male should lead. And the lady follows.” I said, using a sweet side of my accent.
“Thanks for teaching me, I don’t want to look like I know nothing.” Annabeth said, smirking.
“Sure now let’s get to work.”
We danced for hours it seemed yet I didn’t hate it she was a slow learner it was amusing how she kept stepping on my foot then saying sorry ten times. At last she learned it.
“So why haven’t you left Hell yet? Clearly you aren’t happy here.” Annabeth said, taking a drink of water.
“What’s the point? Where would I go?” I asked shrugging.
“Point would be being happy. You don’t need to have a plan just go. Maybe get somewhere to live first?” Annabeth said, shrugging and sitting on the sofa.
“I would be living in hiding, if I did take Katherine with me they will try to find her scent. And I will be on my feet protecting her from demons 24/7.” I said, rubbing my temples trying not to yell at her.
“Then…don’t take a human.” Annabeth sighed, looking away.
“Living alone, would be like being dead.”
“No I mean…take something demons cant find.”
“I am not making her into a demon…she would die…”
“Brent…she is met to be with Luke, I don’t want him to hurt you.”
“Annabeth you are talking like a child.”
“I am not a child anymore.”
“I know that Annabeth, but we got bigger problems on hand besides my happiness.” I said, sighing thinking about Annabeth ex, and Dmitri.
“Who is troubling you?” Annabeth asked, coming over to me and rubbing my shoulder, to try and take away stress.
“Basically people who have recently came into my life making it hell. Your ex and Dmitri.”
“Wait…Klaus?” Annabeth said, panicking.
“Yep, he was trying to kill Robert but he escaped…”
“I will find him, you take care of Dmitri.” Annabeth said, sweetly.
“Be careful Klaus isn’t called Vampire Reaper for nothing.” I said, stroking Annabeth cheek.
“Someone seems to care about me.” Annabeth smiled.
“Well, maybe and Robert needs you this little baby sister.” I said, messing her hair up.
I walked off leaving her alone.
Two hands landed on my shoulders and rubbed them, “So tense come on relax prince, kiss me.” Angel whispered into my ear.
I tried to throw her off of me but she held me down tight.
“Let me up!” I snarled.
“Oh come on, you never wanted me to stop touching you. If someone made you get up you were snarled at them and almost killed a few.” Angel smiled, rubbing my shoulders.
I tried to get up but Angel wouldn’t let me up she was stronger then she looked.
“Let me up!” I snarled.
Angel claws barely came out, “Shh, come on let’s head to my room.”
“I don’t love you anymore!” I snarled.
“Such a stubborn child you are.” Satan said, walking into the room.
“Now if I wasn’t one it wouldn’t be fun.” I said, smirking.
“You were well trained before now, you changed. Odd I must say.” Satan said, rubbing his chin.
“It is called character.” I said, trying to get up but Angel held me back hard.
Angel stroked my hair softly then bit my neck softly with her canines.
Satan smirked then left leaving Angel and me alone.
Satan sent me a message through mind, “Enjoy the night.”
Angel was now on my legs she ran her hands through my hair “Touch me.”
“No.” I growled low.
“I know you want it.” Angel said, taunting me.
Just before Angel leaned in and kissed me someone walked in it was Henry.
“Princess may I speak to you. It is about your birthday party.” Henry said, standing at the door.
Angel rolled her eyes and kissed me still on the lips and got up and walked out with Henry.
“It is such a lovely spring evening.” Kayla said, looking up at the sky.
I had her use my arm as a pillow I pulled her in close to me to keep her feeling safe and warm.
“Yeah Katherine…I want to ask you something.” I said, sighing trying to find the small box in my back pocket.
“Sure, but Brent I have something to tell you.” Kayla said, excited as if it was hard not to contain it.
She sat up and looked at me, I sat up and looked at her and smiled softly, “What is it?”
“Well…I think I am pregnant.” Kayla said, nervous now.
My heart stopped and was feeling tight.
What she can’t be pregnant!
“Katherine…no you aren’t…” I said, shaking my head.
“All the signs are there. We have had sex before…” Katherine said, holding her knees close to her.
“A demon child if Luke finds out he will slaughter the child. Even if he has to kill it while it still inside of me.” Katherine said, rubbing her stomach.
“It could kill you inside, it is Satan’s grandchild. It could easily be a monster.” I said, staring at her stomach.
“I know, it could rip you apart from the inside.” I said, rubbing her stomach.
“I wonder if it might be a girl or maybe a boy.” Katherine said, ignoring what I just said.
“Are you going to keep it?” I asked, looking at the small little belly that was already forming.
“If I get away with it, yes. But Luke will notice I been lying already that I am getting the flu.”
“We need to do something run away to another country…make a family.” I said, rubbing her stomach.
“But what about you attending to the school, we move a lot so if I don’t show up no one would care…the prince they would notice.”
“I am on my last year I will finish up and then after that you and I will go any place you feel safe.” I said, kissing her on the forehead.
Katherine wrapped her arms around my neck I started to kiss her with more force.
Then she screamed in pain I stopped at the second then looked at her, “What is wrong!”
“It is!” She tried to scream.
I looked at her stomach it was bleeding from the inside and she coughed up blood.
Her stomach ripped open and two blood red eyes on a child looking demon bared it fangs at me.
I woke up almost screaming her name out but I stopped myself. I fell back onto the bed breathing almost normal again.
Why did I dream she was pregnant?
I got up and went into the bathroom I pushed my hair back with my hand it fell back into place.
I splashed some water into my water I rubbed my eyes and looked into the mirror. My eyes were glowing their demonic form.
“Wasn’t that a wonderful dream you and her so cute together her having your child. I do wonder what the offspring of a demon prince would look like and act like. I bet you would need to pick them up from pre-school a lot from being evil.” A demon voice smirked inside my head.
“Son we will be attending a brunch with some other high demon family from London do try to be who you are.” Satan called from downstairs.
I exhaled and changed into fancy clothes and kind of fixed my hair and walked down the stairs.
“Well come son they await.” Satan said, walking outside to a carriage. It was black and gothic looking and there were the demonic horses waiting to move.
I climbed in and the door closed once we both were in and the horses started moving.
“So there must be a good reason for us to be meeting with this family?” I asked looking at Satan who was sitting on the other side of the carriage.
“True, you do know your facts well we have business to discuses with them.” Satan said, looking out the window.
“Which would be, and I am coming why?”
“The daughter admires you, women just love you don’t they?” Satan said evil eying me.
“Well can’t help if got killer looks.” I said, with a slight smirk.
“Do make sure your eyes are in demon appearance.” Satan said, low.
I sighed as my eyes adjusted to their demonic form.
After a bit we arrived in London we arrived at a run down church and we went inside no one owned it now.
“Welcome my Lord and Prince.” A demon said, coming out from the shadows.
The demon turned into a human form and opened a door leading underground we went down into a fancy dining room. A few other vampires entered and we met up with them.
A more parent figure a nanny like figure and a girl.
“Well good morning.” Satan said greeting them.
These weren’t the kind of vampires that Annabeth and Robert were, these were the vampire-like demons, they still were vampires. Although they had a demon spirit almost.
“Oh who is this?” The nanny vampire asked.
“This is my loyal son Ayperos.” Satan said, looking at me.
“Pleasure to meet you.” I said, low.
The girl she seemed about sixteen she had long dark brown hair, silver eyes, pale skin, and a long silk black dress.
“Oh why haven’t I met him.” The girl said, smiling at me.
“Well he has been busy but he has found some time to spend with us.” Satan said placing a hand on my shoulder.
“Do sit.” The parent like vampire said, sitting in a chair.
We all took a seat; I couldn’t help but kept thinking of how real the dream was.
“So Prince Ayperos how have you been?” The head vampire said.
“Been fine.” I said, picking up a glass of water and sipping it.
“Are you and the Princess getting married anytime soon?” The head vampire asked.
I almost wanted to spit my water out but I swallowed it, pushing it down my throat.
“Umm Princess Angelina I am assuming?” I asked, raising an eyebrow.
Yes Angel is a princess that everyone wants me to marry but I want to marry Katherine even though she isn’t a princess she is my princess.
“Yes, well?” The head vampire asked.
“I am thinking right now. I know she would love to have the ring on her finger.” I said, shrugging.
“Then make a woman happy son.” Satan said, looking at me.
I looked at Satan then back at the head vampire.
“So Satan you must have some reason for bringing us out of the Chamber of Sins?” The head vampire asked, looking at Satan and tapping on the table with his long fingernails.
Satan trapped them inside a torture chamber for two hundred years and let them out only four months ago.
Although they still bowed down to Satan, he was the kind of guy who would do anything to get what he wants and he always does.
“Yes, I do got a few reasons.” Satan said, running his finger on rim of the glass cup.
“Clearly you need our assistance?” The nanny vampire asked.
“Yes, now I need you to burn London to the ground. Demon Hunters main headquarters are located there. Dmitri found it out from an unknown source. So destroying where those insects are coming from they will be no more.” Satan said, darkly.
“They do have more then one location then in London.”
“True son we will need to find a way to have all of them gather to London.” Satan said, thinking of ideas.
I sighed as they brought a pregnant woman in and she was passed out.
“Please dig in.” Satan said, gestured his hand to the girl.
The vampires started sucking her dry.
The sound of the blood being sucked how hard they were doing it was disgusting.
I exhaled as we waited for them to finish.
“The Demon Hunters shall all die in a few days. This is going to be hell on earth.”
What was I going to do, they were going to summon all of them, and she would go and burn to her death.
“Someone is in thought aren’t they?” Annabeth said coming over to me.
I threw a pebble against the lake it was skipping across the lake.
“You have no idea.” I said, under my breath.
“Something is bugging you still. I wish you could smile more.” Annabeth sighed, picking up a pebble from the shore and having it skip.
“Well would be great if could but we cant all have what we want.”
“Please Brent smile more or try to. Do it for Katherine.” Annabeth said, sighing.
“I do.”
“Brent there is this nice little lake cabin our family doesn’t really use it much. Not since Robert and me were little. Will see if he would like to come. Unless you got plans with Katherine.”
“No, I will come. Sounds fun. When are we going to go.”
“Um in a few days.” Annabeth said, shrugging.
“Who has funnier baby stories you or Robert.” I asked, with a slight laugh.
“I would think Robert.” Annabeth said, having a slight laugh.
“Got a good point there.” I said, shrugging as I threw a pebble.
“So see you then?” Annabeth asked.
“Yep.” I said, smiling and giving her a hug.
I went over to Katherine’s house I jumped onto the roof and knocked on the window.
Katherine got up from her bed and opened it and looked around I grabbed her from her window and she first started to scream but I covered her mouth.
Once she saw me she relaxed.
“What are you doing here?” Katherine asked, confused.
“Satan is going to gather all the Demon Hunters in London and burn London down to the ground with everyone there.”
“What? How do you know this!” Kayla snapped at me.
“Was dragged into a meeting almost against my will.”
“Brent!”
“What the hell did I do!” I asked, trying to keep my voice calm.
Kayla exhaled, "I'm sorry."
I hugged her gently, "It's fine."
"Luke, Lucas and Rosa are all gone burn die. If we tell them everything...it will be over."
"What else do you expect to tell them." I said, sighing, I couldn't believe what this could come to.
Being separated, me being possibly killed, Luke taking her away just so her family of friends could live.
Sounds heartless although I needed to face it.
"I know but you know what will happen."
Katherine sighed and leaned against my chest, I gently stroked her hair.
"Yeah." I sighed looking down at her.
"We have to choose what we want. Now." Katherine said low.
Her gentle heart beat was so soft could feel it I stroked her hair softly.
"All I want is what you want."
Katherine sighed there was a long moment of silence we were unsure what to do. If we don't tell her friends will burn. And Satan would just want to find the last Demon Hunter.
She couldn't live a life of peaceful always wondering if someone was behind her or not.
"I dont' know I dont want Luke to die or any of them, but if we tell them. They may break us apart." Katherine sighed.
"Yes, I know we could warn them, but not tell them everything."
"Luke will ask too many questions." Katherine sighed.
A butterfly fluttered past us we watched the small free creature so beautiful although the butterfly can mean something...
It was one week until the Winter Formal Ball, I leaned against the wall and waited for Katherine to come Dmitri passed by he smirked evilly at me. I remember what we talked about when I went to his castle. He will make sure I will keep it might be tomorrow, could be in hundred years. I closed my eyes and exhaled then Katherine came over to me.
"Told them..." Katherine sighed.
I closed my eyes then said in a low an soft voice, "I'll be leaving soon. Sure we won't see each-other."
Katherine sighed stroking my cheek wanting me to look at her.
I looked at her then she sighed, "I will stay with you long as I can."
"I will hold onto your hand until Luke slashes my hand off." I said, looking down at her.
Katherine looked at me then said, "Come on Lucas is coming." She grabbed my hand and we ran out of the main hallway and into a closet she locked it.
"Well isn't this roomy." I said, smirking at her.
She still couldn't see me in the dark closet I wrapped my arms around her and pulled her close to me.
"Shhh if Luke or Lucas finds us you are dead." Katherine said, in a whisper.
"Oh come on." I said, kissing her neck.
The temptation to take off her clothes was strong although I couldn't do it now, someone could easily unlock the door and find her naked and me kissing her.
Angel saw us already before when Kayla and I making out.
"If someone sees us we are going to be in so much trouble." Katherine mourned slightly.
"Well I can't be perfectly innocent, remember what I am." I said, low in her ear but got a smile on waiting to see her reaction.
"I know, my mission that day was to murder you. I wanted to drive the bullet into your heart. Although your eyes said something else." Kayla whispered.
"Don't believe how much pain I store under my eyes." I mumbled low, wanting to rip into her throat as I kissed her neck.
"Look at me." Kayla whispered.
I looked at she kissed my lips I lifted her up as she kissed me I genlty kissed back and shoved her against a wall, she held onto me and ran her hands through my hair.
"Brent shh come down." Kayla whispered softly through the kiss.
I pulled away from her and sighed, "Sorry."
I let her go and sighed then looked at her holding her hands, "Katherine will you be my date to the Winter Formal Ball?" I asked looking down into her eyes.
She nodded then kissed me on the cheek.
Why did I just ask that?
Katherine was working on how to get her group away from the gathering. Although she wanted me to not to worry was 'bad for my health.'
So was stuck with Robert and Annabeth, I didn't mind I guess.
Annabeth came over to me and sat next to me, "Do you need something to drink."
I sat up and looked at her and said, "Would love one but can't drink away anything."
Robert ran and jumped into the lake doing a cannonball.
I rolled my eyes as I moved out of the way of the splash Annabeth got out of the way quickly.
"Robert!" Annabeth shouted at him.
She still got wet Robert laughed and I rolled my eyes as I let my hand make a gesture and Robert started to drown but he still had air.
"Brent!" Robert shouted.
I had a slight smirk, "What?"
"Stop making him drown." Annabeth said, having a slight laugh and hitting me gently in the arm.
I exhaled rolling my eyes letting go of Robert he went underwater but swam back up to the surface.
"See Annabeth this proves he is a killer." Robert said, swimming towards the sand.
"It's already been proven. Someone already beat you to proving that theory." I said, rolling my eyes with a slight smirk.
Annabeth went into the lake house I went inside with her she went to her room.
"So you and Robert came here when you were kids?" I asked, looking at the family paints and photographs of them.
"Yeah came here so much it was amazing. Should of seen us." Annabeth said, talking through the closed door.
The house was small although it had that family feeling.
I stayed out in the first hallway her room door was closed.
"Sure Robert was still an idiot back then." I said, with a slight laugh and looking down.
"Sure was although he is my brother. Only real family."
Was true when you lived forever, you needed one family member who shared the same blood as you.
You could fall in love, make friends but family was one of the keys, vampires used to keep their sanity. Even though it never seemed like it.
"Brent get up you lazy." Annabeth said, shaking me awake.
Damn I hate vampires sometimes she didn't need sleep, or Robert.
I swear if Robert drew anything on me I will kill him.
"What time is it?" I asked yawning.
"Noon." Annabeth said, getting up and walking into the small walk in closet.
I sat up and looked at Annabeth she came out with a white shirt and some pants she tossed them at me. "Get dressed, we are going to go and swim." Annabeth said smirking.
"Then why the hell do I need to get dressed." I asked, raising an eyebrow at her.
She laughed, "I know but you can't be walking around half nude."
She left the room so I could change, I got up and looked out the window there was a lake in the distance. The room had wooden walls, wooden flooring a hand made rug, the bed was made out of logs, although the mattress and the sheets made it more comfy then it was.
There were a few pictures of Robert and Annabeth on the dresser.
I got on the clothes and walked outside, Robert was staring at the clouds while Annabeth was sitting in the shade.
"Let's get this over with." I exhaled walking past Robert.
Robert jumped up and said, "Great."
No matter what he did he always seemed like a child.
Even though he had long past that life.
At the lake Robert was on a tree branch he ran and jumped in.
Annabeth took off her clothes although she had some clothing under her dress, she jumped in and started to drown her brother.
I exhaled and took off my shirt and jumped in, might as well try to have some fun.
The three day getaway passed faster, when I walked into the school I was greeted by a huge hug.
"Brent...Rosa is dead..." Katherine cried into my shirt.
Dammit..
"What?" I asked softly looking down at her.
She looked up at me, I have never seen her cry I didn't think it was possible but I was wrong.
"She didn't listen to what I told them about the Burning of London. She went and now she is dead." Katherine said, heavily.
Satan is going to pay for this.
I lifted up her chin with my finger so she could look up at me I cupped her small face in my hands, and kissed her softly.
"This all your fault!" Luke shouted at me.
I pulled away from Kayla and looked at Luke then snapped, "I didn't do anything! You should be grateful I warned you and your family or you would be dead like Rosa."
Luke came at us then Kayla stood in front of me then said, "Luke kill him, you have to kill me."
Luke looked at Kayla shocked that she would give up her life to save a demon.
"Katherine move he has lived his life so now move." Luke said low at her.
Katherine held my hand and leaned against me I wrapped my arm around her.
Luke punched a hole in the wall and he stormed away.
Kayla looked at me and kissed me then whispered, "I should make sure he is ok..."
She followed after him, I exhaled as I watched her run away from me after another man who loved her.
Epilogue "Dawn."
It was the night of the Winter Formal Ball, I fixed the black tux and didn't bother to do anything with my hair. "Well look at you." Satan said, leaning in the doorway.
I turned around and glared at him he came over to me then said, "Well look at you looking all nice for your love."
"Get the hell out of my room." I snarled, my eyes slowly changed to a demonic form.
Satan smirked then patted my shoulder, "Have fun...son."
It was in the ballroom I waited for her in the main lobby I could hear the music, and the talking from hundreds of people. Kayla showed up in a soft white long flowing elegant dress, with a diamond between her breast. She had her hair straight it was so soft and silk-like looking. She smiled at me and came over and kissed me.
"I never thought you of the suit-type." Kayla said, under the kiss.
I shrugged, "I am full of surprises."
We held hands walking to the ballroom no one really stopped, and stared but I felt some of the glances on us.
Which didn't surprise me no one thought of seeing me with anyone besides Angel.
We took a spot on the floor and started dancing the Waltz was the easiest dance I ever learned, I guided her through it as if a parent teaching their child to ride a bike.
I pulled her in and whispered, "I love you."
Katherine smiled then spun around and kissed me gently.
All the pain I had suffered over the years was gone nothing of my past mattered. All mattered was that I had her in my arms.
We went out to the balcony and cuddled together the sky was dark although she was warm in my arms.
It was almost New Year meaning I had lasted another year of being undead.
I kissed her cheek then her throat.
"I am sick of this."
The demon growled low.
No don't tell me...
I lunged at her against my will and started taking her life, slowly making her scream.
Although she closed her mouth against her will. She couldn't push me off of her.
What the hell why must it end now!
After I sucked the life out of her she barley had any left in her her blood dripped from my sharp canines.
"Bre---" She started.
I held her in my arms and said gently, "Sh..don't talk."
She looked at me and knew I was about to cry she had a soft laugh, "Brent, dont tell me your crying..."
She tried to reach up to stroke my cheek but her arm fell to her side.
"I don't want to loose you." I said, holding my tears back.
"Demons don't cry." Katherine said sighing wanting to close her eyes.
"They only do when they kill their love before they get to propose to them..."I said softly.
She tried to smile then she fell limp in my arms.
"Katherine!" I screamed at the top of my lungs, begging she wasn't gone, begging this had to be a dream.
Everything was so perfect, everything was beautiful. A dream I shouldn't been able to have came true, falling in love with an angel.
"Katherine!" I shouted, getting choked by tears. Her small body rested in my arms, I was shaking holding her body, I couldn't believe she was dead, and I was afraid to crush her fragile body.
Hoping if she was just playing a trick on me, her body would still be in-tact.
"Please Katherine! Don't go! Katherine! Katherine!" I shouted, the name was filled with pure innocence, beautiful and elegance.
Each time I said it became unreal.
Why couldn't there be a poison I could drink and it would keep me dead forever, even If I wouldn't be welcome into Heaven, I would still have punished myself for loving an angel. Then killing her, as if I didn't even care.
As each second passed I stared down at her body, this can't be happening.
It has to be a horrible dream, this can't be happening!
I held her dead body against me crying into her dress, she was dead.
The only one who made me smile and feel alive was gone in a flash.
I slammed my bedroom door hard as I could I punched the mirror breaking the glass my hand didn't even cut the door opened there was Satan.
"Well, well looks like our tale of 'Romeo and Juliet' has come to end. Odd...why isn't Romeo dead?"
I bared my canines at him and grabbed him by the throat and started to choke him.
"If you never killed me! She would still be alive!" I shouted at him.
Satan rolled his eyes and snapped my neck, making me fall to the ground he growled low.
"She's dead...get over it. People forget about the dead. Can't believe I raised my son to be such a fool." Satan growled low.
"I am not your son. We may have the same blood type, but that doesn't make me your damn son." I snarled low.
Satan smirked and a soft laugh and said, "Really, if you think you are so innocent. Then tell me why you kill your love?"
"I wouldn't of killed her if I was human!" I growled, holding tears back.
Satan smirked then kicked my head to the other side he walked over to the other side and said, "Human or demon, both are cruel in their own ways. I'm sure Katherine was a very cruel woman under neath that 'love' she had for you."
"She wasn't cruel at all she was---." I started then was cut off.
"She's a Demon Hunter." Satan said, low now baring his canines at me.
"She wouldn't be one if you never came into her life!" I growled.
Satan looked like he was going to rip my heart out but I wouldn't mind at all, I welcomed death.
Then he chuckled and crushed two of my ribs with his foot, "I know, yet she was going to die some day. At least you got to see her dying." Satan grinned then threw me into the wall, a loud pop came from my spine, I fell to the ground.
He walked out of the room I stood up and snapped my neck back into place.
At the funeral there were Luke and Lucas I stayed away from the crowd most other demon hunters were there they said she could be with her parents now. Which I was happy for her to be with her parents once more, although my heart was ripped into half and could never be fixed again. She was gone forever.
I could never embrace her, kiss her soft skin feel how soft her breast were.
Luke glared at me I knew I wasn't invited I left on the respect of Katherine.

How they say is there someone for everyone, or love is the most powerful thing in the world? No those people live in a world where they think life is a fairy tale, life is nothing but a black blur of lies. Once you think you know someone they change. Or when you think you know yourself you find out something, you never knew. I didn't think I could love again. Not after what happened in the past. But I know now love is nothing but a game. It will let you play and almost win, but you will end up falling and loosing it all. I loved Katherine now I killed her, nothing good last forever I suppose....
I grabbed my cloak and placed it on I put the hood on and grabbed a bag and placed some personal items in it and threw the bag over my shoulder, and climbed out the window.
This is how life should be alone.
On your own to live life as a shadow not human, just a shadow waiting for the last day.
The years passed everything changed I had stayed the same, everyone was greedy no one cared. Which was better.
Her grave was still there a soft stone color although it looked like it could fall apart, it seemed so fragile like she was. I placed a rose on the ground next to it. I pulled out the ring I was going to give her. Before everything changed. She would of made the perfect wife and mother.
Although she was dead and I was alone I wanted to take my life to be with her. Although heaven wouldn't welcome me it would shove me into hell where I would be torn limb to limb.
I turned to the city as it started to rain, nothing mattered anymore.
I was alone, I had nothing, nothing mattered I didn't deserve to breathe the air I did. I was a shadow who wanted to die although shadows don't die.
Temptation leads you into traps and suffocates you as you suffer they watch above you see you as a disgrace.
I am better off alone, and away from everyone, damned to live alone forever.
Those words echoed my head, now and forever, the truth is hard to tell and to accept.
“You were a fool to believe you could be with her.” A voice said from behind me.
“Like you care…” I said, low knowing whom it belong to.
“Oh believe me Brent, I care much more then you think.” The voice said, with a grin on their face.
