The drive back home was peaceful. It wasn't awkward at all. But even if I want it to be this peaceful, I had to talk, to ask some questions and to apologize."Mom, Dad. I'm sorry for the way I acted earlier, I couldn't stop myself when she brought you guys into the conversation. I had to defend you."My mom averted her gaze to me, I thought she was mad or maybe disappointed but she wasn't. It was a soft look, somewhat saying that she understood me. She then started talking."Honey, I am proud of you for trying to defend us, but force should always be our last resort. Listen to me Clarke, that will ever be the last time you try to protect us. We're your parents, it is our job to protect you. Not the other way around.""Mom, I'm not a kid anymore. Do you real

Of every head of the coven, a family must have an enchantment room. In here, they would conjure spells, practice magic, be one with the elements and offer sacrifices. To think of how many years this coven has strived, a lot of living things must have been sacrificed here. No harm intended, but violence was never to my likings, even when I hunt I try as much as possible to give my prey a merciful death.The room was half dark, and half-light."I will need a specific item, Clarke. Something that is of value to you, one you share a sentimental feeling. That way the magic is stronger and it will not fail you easily."Uncle told me.I looked

Remember when my Mom told me to get some good sleep? Well that didn't happen.I stumbled and fumbled and fell on the bed. It was so hard to stop my excitement, with an enchanted ring, I could stay hidden from trackers. We won't have to move to a new place for a long time, also this could give me a chance to live normal, even just for a moment. There's not a day that I don't wish for the hiding to end. In the first place, my parents should have been free to love each other. Love is love, whatever the race, or the color or the gender.A sudden knock on my door brought me back to reality."Come in."

After I finished my meal, I took the time to just walk and be familiar with the woods. This forest is beautiful, the trees gave perfect shade, and the air breeze is amazing, definitely a good place to meditate here. It's a good environment for self-control. I might use this place very often considering that we would stay here for some time. I noticed broken pavements along the way to the house my father said was ours, well was our family's. The Rayleigh, my father's family, my last name, is one of the oldest family in the world, our history goes way back to the beginning of time. My father once said that there was a time when our family were kings and queens, so I'm hunching that Avebury, might have been a castle once."There you are!"my mother exclaimed out of excitement."You waited for me?""It's ou

"Clarke, wake up. We have to go"my father said as he took my suitcase underneath the bed. Growing up, we had always been on the run. My father and mother have been hunted down by both of their clans since I was born. Vampires and Werewolves alike. Both clans never supported their matrimony because of a prophecy. It was said that the child they will bear, is a monster and will be the end of the vampire and werewolf race. I was that child, I am the first of my kind. I grew up scared of what I might be, but my parents believed that I was a miracle. I was everything except a monster, that I was special, and so I believed them on most nights, more over I could never really truly put my mind into it. I was a vampire and a werewolf, I crave more blood than average due to my werewolf genes. But I get to walk in the sun without the fear of burning. Werewolves tend to shift

"I'm sorry. I can't lose you, not again." I said as I walked out of the safe house. I embroidered the house doors with enchantments to keep the people inside from getting out. "You can't do this Clarke. You can't do this alone, you'll die!" he shouted. "I'd rather have me die than you." I softly whispered. I turned back for one final time and gave him a smile. Whatever fate had written on both our
