I had been running through the forest with Elijah when we decided to go home, i was hiding my feelings towards Elijah as i knew he had grown fond of Tatia. She was everything i wasn't, she had long dark hair that fell perfectly down her back and a body any girl my age would die for, she was skinny and all the men in our village were falling for her. I watched as the man i loved was not in love with me but was in love with..... her. I watched as his eyes followed her when she walked out of a room and how his eyes would fill with lust when he saw her, i tried to be like her and styled my hair. I would starve myself for days to have a perfect complexion like her but nothing i did seemed to make Elijah see me in the way he saw Tatia.

I was a witch and was very close to Esther, she would treat me as her own and would always make sure i was safe. One day I was to be married to a man, my parents had decided on Elijah... I was happy but also sad how on the happiest day of my life i would be marrying a man that did not love me as i did him. The wedding came soon and as we exchanged our vowels mine were filled with happiness and joy while his were filled with sadness.

After the wedding i was forced to get pregnant with his child and i did, i gave birth. I was taking care of my child when i heard screams throughout the village, i looked out my door to see the love of my life killing someone cold blooded. I closed the door and ran into my room, i has heard from people living in our village that monsters had arisen. I decided to take my child and run away but i didn't make it far before i was caught by someone, i looked back to see Elijah. His eyes no longer had joy in them instead they were filled with darkness, he looked down at our child before looking back up at me. He grew dark veins under his eyes and sharp fangs petrueded from his mouth, he lunged towards me and drained me of all my blood and so my story came to an end, I had married a man that did not love me back, i had given birth to a child that i did not want and finally i was killed by the same man i had loved all my life.
