In a world full of mythical creatures, dragons, goblins, almost anything imaginable. A human is born to lower class vampires, doctors saying she wouldn't live. A child around the same age as her is put next to her crib in the hospital, friends until...
I saw Rein waving at me as we walked our separate ways. She was so cute. A buzz in my pocket startled me. It was jake.

I was about to burst out laughing but I knew it was true. I opened the door to find my dad sitting on the couch, waiting for me. Like always. "Who was that girl?" I looked at him with a stern face. "Nobody." He looked mad. "You're supposed to be dating Jade." I opened my phone and showed him the text messages. He balled up his fist every second, ready to punch something.
He slammed his hand against the couch. "Gosh darnit Thorn! You're supposed to be better than this! Of course Jade goes out with Jake, you have to get her back. Become rivals or something." I was becoming irritated by this man's words. "I was too late, simple as that. I didn't like Jade in the first place." Steam came out of my father's nostrils as he was becoming mad. I could clearly see his dragon-side.
"You're going to listen to me mister 'I can do whatever I want.'" He looked straight at me. "You are not dating that stupid girl you befriended today and you're definitely never going to grow up. Actually." He laughed as he put his hand on his head.
"You can stay outside tomorrow night." I was confused but also angry. "Why not tonight?" He stopped laughing. "We are having guests tonight, I want to act like a good father. Oh wait, I already am one!" He laughed and laughed as I went up to my room.
I never got Rein's number, I should ask tomorrow. My only thoughts were about Rein. She was gorgeous, like a missing part of me.
......
The sound of the slap startled me. I must be in another dream, but it didn't look like it. Another slap and another and another, I felt pain but couldn't see anything. A white light flashed and I was under water. A private swimming pool, or at least that's what it looked like. My hair was everywhere, surrounding my eyes giving me no vision of anything.
I gasped for air but I was being weighed down by something, I started drowning, my ears popped as I hit the ground of the pool. I felt like I was bleeding. Soon, my vision went black as the weight continued to shove me down, making sure I was dead. I was dead.
......
I woke up panting. "What the heck!" I saw multiple men in formal suits in front of my bed. One of them was my father. I cleared my throat. "Yes father?" He looked up at me like some kind of important villain. "Go. Make dinner for my guests." I nodded before quickly heading out of my room, the men stayed.
I looked around the living room to find multiple other guests. I headed into the kitchen and made some steak and spaghetti, I made a tiny bit of lasagna for certain guests. I always ended up meeting all of the guests and I have started memorizing what they want. A habit.
I was done after around thirty minutes and everyone was ready to eat. The men and my dad came out of my room and were getting ready to announce something. "I would like to thank my most important person at this party who I love dearly." You know, I don't even know why I thought he would call my name with pride. I was the devil child who broke my brother after everything he has ever done.
Even if he bullied me, punched me, and kicked me, I was always going to be the bad guy. "Scales!" I froze at that moment. Scales? That doesn't sound right. I thought....
Scales went to a mental hospital after lashing out on me. The night he broke me. The night that monster ripped off part of my right wing. "He is Thorn's brother, yes, but he has always been there for him and has always worked so hard." I could feel the hot breath coming out of my throat as I balled up my fists. I walked right up to him, the crowd grew silent. "Liar!" He looked up with that power hungry look in his eyes.
"You LIAR. YOU NEVER LOVED ME, YOU...." I broke off wondering what I was going to say. "YOU...." He laughed. "You can't even finish that sentence." I stared right at him, my breath was calming down as I stepped beside him, laughing. "You make me slave all day, you put me with some random girl I don't like, you broke my neck about a thousand times, you hate me with every passion, and more. But you still choose Scale's over me? Even after he went to a mental hospital for ripping off part of my wing. You might say I'm crazy, or insane or whatever. But your mind is crooked."
I continued laughing. I could tell that Scale's was getting mad. "What Thorn says may be true. But at least I didn't kill my own mom."
