Back to school again. To rushes, last-minute assignments, and not studying enough for a test. Back to seeing him again and being profoundly disturbed. I'm good with Chris now. I hope that doesn't change when I see him.Mom drops me off on the main gates of the academy. She hugs me tight, knowing that everything has changed since the last time I was here. I don't want to let go. This past weeks at home reminded me how normal I was. How normal I want to be again. Of course, this aside from Megan's

The wood's dark and steady surroundings oppress my chest. I'm here. The same forest, the same night, the same uneasy feeling. Fear. Now that I know who is waiting for me, who is chasing me, the fear and confusion invade my lungs. I think I can hear him in the distance. His steps, his body. Him. The nightgown clings to my cold shivering body. I glance at my feet. There is white, untouched snow beneath them. I start walking from where the sounds come from. I'm aware of my footsteps. I don't want to let him now I'm here. Closer. Closer. There is someone else. He's not alone and he isn't chasing me. I can't see him, but I sure do feel him. His body. His imposing presence. William. I hear him whispering. Talking to someone I can't see or feel. My

It's so cold without him. I miss his warmth inside me, on me. I miss his touch, his heavy breathing, his full lips on mine, and his body. This has slowly become torture. I'm connected to him, even if it is in a minimum now, I miss him desperately. Connected and so far apart.He got better and was released from the hospital. He didn't quite remember what happened, just that he got hurt. I guess that throw across the room did more damage than I thought. I also thought that he was going to come aft

The second part of the book starts here.To recap what happened in the first part, Alice discovered that she wasn't human on her eighteenth birthday. She discovered that she belonged in a world where magic exists and those who possessed it are those who come from the stars. These people are called Blessed and they possess extraordinary powers. They are a community hidden not only from the world but from demons as well. These demons are called Deamhans and they thrive in not only killing human beings for sport but Blessed too. They kill them for their blood and because in doing so they absorb their powers for a short period of time. While Alice starts to learn about herself and about those who hunt her kind, she- with the help of her best friend Mia- starts to discover another part of herself, a part that is much too dark for anyone's liking. She is not only Blessed but a vampire as well. On top of all this, the crush she had developed on her Astronomy professor grows and some

I wake up and quickly feel disoriented. I don't know where I am. I can't recognize anything around me. Well as far as I can see around me, I am in a pitch-black room. The small spec of light that faintly illuminates the room is coming from beneath the door. I am lying down on a cold stiff bed. There is no much furniture around the room, just where I'm lying, a sink, and a toilet. Soon it dawns on me, I am in a prison. How does a hybrid manage to end up in a prison? I sit up on the bed and quickly feel light-headed. I press my hand on my forehead in an attempt to stop the room from moving before my eyes. The darkness is welcoming, though. I don't think that with how lightheaded I feel I could handle too much light right now. I look down at myself and see that my right long-sleeved has been cut, exposing my arm. I look at my forearm and see that I have white gauze with medical tape. I gently pull it out and see a small needle incision. They have taken some of my blood. I'm not healing
