Katerina Petrova, the eldest daughter of the Petrova bloodline was dancing to the sound of the music. She was a seven year old girl with shiny blue eyes and dimples that made her look beautiful and innocent in a heavenly way. But she had no one to love her.

Her father Henry Dains was a Traveller who can do magic and inhabit another person's body. But he stopped doing it when he met Petia Petrova. Henry and Petia soon got married and they started living in Petia's paternal mansion. Henry who was born in a small family liked the luxuries of Petia's house. Since Petia's parents died in a fire years back, she was brought up by the servants whom she considered her family. The newly wed couple were always seen together.  "I have never seen her this happy since her parents died", the chief servant Maria who was like a sister to Petia said.

The couple were extra happy when they knew that they were going to be parents. Those times were a delightful one for them. Petia would sit and always cradle her baby bump while Henry would talk to the unborn baby.

One night while sleeping Petia awoke and she was sweating profusely. "Henry, I think it's time". Henry went to light a candle and called their servants to make his wife comfortable. He soon rushed to call the midwife.

When he arrived with the midwife, he could see Petia tired but still cradling her stomach. "I don't think I can do it. I feel myself drifting off to sleep. I want to see my baby before I sleep. Can you make sure that my baby would be fine?" Petia's words brought tears to Henry's eyes,"Sure, you are going to be fine." After some minutes, she delivered a baby girl. "See Petia, we have a beautiful girl." Petia smiled through her tiredness and she said,"Take care,Katerina." And that was the end. Henry could feel the life flowing out of Petia and she shifted to a peaceful sleep.

That was the last day Henry loved his daughter. Since then, Katerina Petrova was a demon who killed her own mother.
