Secrets Within 8
**Viktor** I have spent the past few days researching the oldest prophecies. Perhaps they will hold more pieces of the ancient prophecy. There were once rumors that the ancient prophecy was broken up in to chapters. This has been some puzzle and so far I am not solving it. Today I have to make my way to the safe house. Dez has a keen eye, he may be able to piece this puzzle together. An apartment complex would make a vulnerable safe house, but in fact can be quite clever if one has the connections to fortify it. I have secretly kept friendly with some warlocks. Their magic is old but strong. The complex is modern and high tech as well. It’s a beautiful day, the sun is shining and the warmth from the sum warms my chilled skin. Summer is my favorite season, keeps me energized. I knocked on the door of apartment 6. Dogs barking, Ruby must have dogs. Dez has been quite secretive about her, this of course has my interest peaked. I wouldn’t be surprised by a shift in his loyalty, after a

**Ruby** “It’s lovely to finally meet you, my dear.” Viktor said as he kissed my hand. “We have so much to talk about. I have brought some of the scrolls from our archives. I came across three prophacies that are very similar, by that I mean minor detail that are identical but the outcomes are drastically different.” “Ruby,” I looked at Dez. “I haven’t told you about my meeting with Viktor, because I knew you would have questions that I can not answer.” “I don’t like that you kept this from me, but I also understand why you did.” I feel like I’m going to cry. “Sir?” looking at Viktor. “Please call me Viktor.” He has such a comforting energy. “Viktor, what do I have to do with these prophacies? I’m nobody, just an orphan.” Viktor looked concerned. “My dear girl, you have to know that you are everything to Dezmon and therefore greatly important to me. Dezmond is my son and now you, my daughter. Your life is worth ours, and we would sacrifice ours without hesitation to sav

“As I was saying, the second prophecy is just as vague. It tells of a beautiful young woman who was alone in the world, searching for her purpose. She didn’t know that a great evil was after her. This evil was not of our world but knew of our existance. They were determined to gain control of our world as well as the mortal one. Fire took everything from her, her fear would be her downfall unless....” Viktor stopped “Unless what?” Ruby asked, her face pale. “That is all that was left. It was too deteriorated to translate.” Viktor continued. “The third says, a woman will be the downfall of our world. A prisoner, trained to hate all immortals including herself. This woman is key to our existance. If she is captured our world is doomed, our world will cease to exist.” Silence. “How are these prophecies connected?

Viktor looked Dez in the eyes and said, “The description of this woman is all the same. Electric green eyes, jet black hair and a vampire mate. This woman has the ability to bring our world peace or extinction, based on her choices.” All eyes were on Ruby. “It can’t be me, it has to be someone else.” “Love, you are extraordinary, how can you think anyone else fits that description?” Ruby shifted into a massive black lion. The look on the lions face was pain and confusion. (“DEZ! Help me!”) (“What am I to do? Has this never happened before?”) The lion was pacing now. (“No! I hurt so bad. How do I change back?”) Low growls were coming from the lion that was once Ruby. (“I am not sure. Just think human.”) I am not sure if that will work but its worth a shot. (“Ok”) The lion closed her eyes but jumped and yelped in agony.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ **Ruby** That was the most painful thing that has ever happened to me. It hurt to pace, but it hurt more to stand still. Am I going to be stuck like this? Viktor looked to be in shock, he’s not the only one. Dez looked amazed. I did tell him I was part shifter. Finally speaking Viktor looked to Dez and asked, “So she’s definitely a hybrid.” Dez got between me and Viktor. “Yes, she is. She is mine.” I didn’t understand what was happening, it was like the whole energy of the room changed. I stayed behind Dez. “I do not want your mate, I stake no claims, son.” I could see Dez relax slightly. Viktor continued to speak. “She appears to be stuck in that form, has she shifted before?” (“Dez, I have never shifted before, I thought maybe that was why I was abandoned.”) “This is her first time.” He didn’t answer me, his full attention was on Viktor. The pain was easing up now. “I am honored to have been witness to this monu

**Haven** They didn’t want me in the room with their visitor. I was hiding in a room upstairs, they recommended the basement, but I couldn’t go down there. I told Ruby that was where I was put to be beaten. Ruby told me that family doesn’t do that to you. What is family then? My mother died while she was having me, so my father didn’t have much to do with me. I was left with my uncle a lot and my cousin. They treated me like I was a servant and told me that I should be thankful that I was even allowed in their home. Uncle always had father off on missions so he didn’t know what was happening, not that he would care. I was nothing to anyone, until i shifted the first time. It was rare to be able to shift into another person and for it to happen for a first shift was unheard of. Uncle started my training then, had me shift into a girl my age. He taught me everything about her and I was getting hurt anymore so I excelled at every task. I still have not been in my true form in years. I wa

**Viktor**Someone else is in this house, I could sense it when I got here. Her smell was getting stronger. She smelled of lilac and rain, and the bitter smell of anxiety. “Ruby, who is your friend hiding upstairs?” The massive black lion looked at Dez with worry. “That would be Ruby’s best friend, Haven.” Dez looked slightly worried. That was troublesome. Why are they trying to hide her? I feel a hunger to meet her. “Dezmond, go get her please, I wish to meet her.” Dez lowered his eyes and left the room. A few moments later he returned. “Haven will be here momentarily.” “I do not wish to harm her; her scent is enticing.” I heard her footsteps, my heart started to race. This is invigorating, I haven't felt anticipation like this in more than a century. The door opened and in came the most beautiful creature I have ever seen. Oh shit! She is my mate. “Dez said you wanted to meet me.” her voice was quiet. “Yes, love. I am Viktor, it is most amazing to meet you. May I ask what you are? I

“What is your uncle's name?” Haven turned to face me now. “His name is Ulric, he is insane and power-hungry. He thinks Ruby is valuable, he sent me to spy on her years ago. I haven’t been in my true form since.”I can see genuine fear in her eyes, I wouldn’t need to smell her fear to know that she is truthful. The pain she must have faced at his hands must have been excruciating. “Dez, I want Haven to remain with me. I will keep her safe, she can be a guest of the coven.” “Sir, she is not a vampire, they will not allow her to stay there.” So they hid her for her safety, that makes sense. “They have to, Haven is my mate. We may not be allowed to seek out our mates but if we happen to cross paths then it is considered a gift from the gods. Not all are fortunate enough to be blessed like this. Therefore, we cannot actively search. A loophole to our laws, most common vampires are unaware of this. This information is slowly passed down to each leader, but told to be kept secret from our sub

“Will Haven be safe with the coven? She is important to Ruby. How do you know she is your mate?” Dez looks slightly puzzled. I took a breath, “Haven is in a vulnerable state, she is extremely lonely and open to finding her mate. So she accepted me instantly. I can see you are worried, do you have any concerns?” “I am not sure what I am supposed to feel. I know that I would do anything for Ruby.” Dez said with confidence. “That is what you are supposed to feel. When she fully accepts you, there will be an electric pull and you will be able to find her wherever she may be.” Dez looked down. “Dezmond, from my understanding Ruby has been through a lot in her short life. She is more guarded but I see the love in her eyes when she looks at you. She needs time.” “You are right. I know she trusts me, I know she loves me. I don’t understand what is holding her back.” Dez said softly. “Be there for her. I know she will accept you. Her heart already has, she is already yours.” **Ruby** “Ru
