Rosey's P.O.V

I climbed in the car and we drove off,I noticed Nico drove with the car lights off.

"Why do you drive with the car lights off?" I asked.

"In this type of the forest there are creatures that don't like to be disturbed "Nico replied bluntly.

"What type of animals?" I asked.

"Wolves"he replied simply and Ámilie glared at him strongly. He looked at her back in assurance.

"Can i see them sometime "I asked knowing what the answer might be.

"No"he said simply.

"Why not?"I was looking for an argument.

"Because i said so" Ámilie didn't dare to intervene this time.

"That's not an answer"I demanded.

"But its what I'm giving you" he said.

"It's not enough"I said.

"That's enough you guys!" Ámilie said. We all fell silent.

"Do you guys know what day it is today because i don't think so,if you did you would've put your differences aside and got along just for the sake of today now here is what's going to happen you two are going to shut up about this and we are going to get through this day just like how we've been doing these past years " she scolded.

I looked outside the window, this day, this was the day everything happened, this was the day my whole life came to this. My birthday. I don't know my birth story of course but I know that I was found in a burning room only when I was three days old so three days from now it will the anniversary of the 'incident '. Death day is what Ámilie is talking about,the day hundreds of people died in a village fire which is weird if you think about it because i was found in a fire as well but the village fire happened a thousand years ago. I was certain to find the truth.

We arrived at the sacred forest circle were the hundreds of people died and the great Emilié Lefevre was buried ,she was one of the hundreds that died that day but she saved hundred more by sacrificing her self.

"Gather around my beloved children "Grandpa Roland said as we all gathered around the statue of the Great Lefevre and beneath it layed the hero herself in her tomb. Grandpa Roland gathered two separate empty glasses to start the ritual which was even weirder than the fact that Grandma Rose was nowhere to be seen,he never left her behind no matter how sick she was. The ritual consisted of taking blood from the entire family and burning it as an offering to the dead so they can live longer on our blood. My blood was never burned, it was not even collected at some times, Grandpa always said it was because it was special. But obviously I didn't think so, this day always made me feel bad because the blood collection consisted of everyone except me.

Grandpa Roland came to me. Me? Why me? Why now? I trusted him more than anybody because even though he hid something from me he would always explain.

"You said -"he cut me off.

"We need it now Rose"he said. His voice was pained and he had his eyes watering up.

"Where's Grams" I asked.

"We don't have time" he said and he forcefully pulled my arm out and he stabbed my veins with a very sharp knife and he didn't take it out. I felt betrayed and I watched in tears as the huge glass filled with my blood. He let go after the glass was filled to the brim.

"You said it wouldn't be this much!" Nico yelled.

"We need it more,hold her so we can fill another glass"he commanded.

"I will do no such" Nico defended.

"Okay then Clio grab her" he sent my cousin after me. How could he?

"Rosey run!!"Ámilie shouted. I ran into the forest without direction.

I came to a quick halt when i heard some sounds,whispering and distant chattering. A hand grabbed me from the back and a rag was placed over my mouth and nose. As soon as i inhaled darkness overcame me.
