I spent my time in the royal gym, I locked Demion out of the gym while my mother trained me. 

"Your fighting skills have improved since this morning, my child. But you need to reach your inner vampire to gain the speed of a royal. Imagine yourself running faster then the speed of light. Your life is on the line, Darling," my mother's voice rang with kindness. 

After more hours of training my mother deams me ready to fight the girl who challenged me. 

I ran to my room and changed into A Sports bra and a pair of shorts.

I met my mother at the arena. Unfortunately i am not allowed to see Demion. I could feel the worry coming off of Demion, his lack of faith in me, starts to make my un-beating heart sting. Ebony and Sarafrina are clawing to prove everyone wrong, especially my mate, Right now is not the time.  Walking to the arena I closed  everyone off. The rage of my place being given to Tiffany surfaces and my eyes turn violet. I can hear my mom talking but her voice is muffled, I ignore her and keep walking, i start to see red.

"I'm ready to kill." 

I can feel the cheers of my people, most cheering for the one they think will win, A.k.a Tiffany. This pisses me off even more and my vision intensifies. No one has faith in their Queen, and that's about to change. I walk into the arena and feel the sand on my feet. I look dead, cold, and numb of my feelings. I step close to my challenger noticing Demion behind in the stands. He looks worried.

1...2....3... There's the pang of no hope from the one i needed it from the most. Blocking it out i look into the eyes of the young vampire stupid enough to challenge the young hybrid. The scent of werewolves collided with vampire. 

"Due to the challenge we have tonight, vampires and werewolves have come together to watch the queen battle. This is a battle to the death. You may not stop until the opponent is dead. Starting on 3. "

1.....

I look at my mother holding Ebonie. She reaches out to hold me. I have to win this for My sister and mother.

2...

 I look to the girl shaking in front of me due to fear, but she still tried to be brave. 

3...

My eyes flashed to his, hope shinning through his eyes. "You can do this!" He mouthed. 

I have to do this for the people I love!

My eyes flashed to the bleach blonde dashing to me. I did a back flip to the side grabbing her arm on the way down, and I twisted it to the side, and then behind her back. She reached up and gripped my neck bringing me to the ground. Standing over me, she gripped my neck tighter. Using my strength I brought my legs up and kicked her chest so hard she flew, crashing to a wall, then onto the floor. She spit venom onto the ground, and wiped her mouth, black venom ran across her skin. I jumped up and ran faster then I ever thought I could, I gripped her forearms and pulled flinging them across the arena. She let out a blood curdling scream, and regret flashed across her eyes. My foot steadied on her chest, my hands wrapped around her neck. Pushing with extra force her body flung back and her head decapitated into my hands. Blood sprang from her neck onto my face, I smirked with pride. Holding her head up and facing the crowd. Demion came running towards me. Pride radiated from him, he picked me up and spun me around. "I love you, if u ever scare me like that again i'm gonna die," I got out of his embrace. The doubt he had still on my mind, i faced the announcer. They raised to their feet and bowed, 

"My Queen and King, we have misjudged her. She is the Perfect match to rule our kingdom." A citizen yelled. My mother's face lit up with pride and Ebonie ran to me. My arms outstretched towards her and she tackled me while giggling. "You did it! You did it!" She screeched, i smiled at my sister and kissed her forehead. 

Several hours later: 

Demion's fight began, and it ended with one flick of his wrist. The challenger was stupid to go against the royal guard. I wasn't allowed to see the fight, according to the council i'd be distracting to the male mind. To clear my mind of doubt on my soulmates face i went for a walk and stumbled upon a water fall that had a hidden cave behind it. The cave gave off a homey feeling, so i decided it would be my hideout. Suddenly, a pain hit my head like a head on collison, and i grabbed onto the wall to steady myself. A vision came through my mind,

"A Young girl with icy blue eyes ran through the cave holding a boy's hand. The children looked almost identical. However, the boy's eyes where pure charcoal black, with a violet swirl in them. They ran to a table where their mother had a cauldron on the make shift fire place. The women turned and her face mirrored my own." 

The vision ended and i heard my name. I didn't care, i sat on the floor. Thoughts filled my head:Those were my kids? Why wasn't Demion with us?  When would the children be born? Why was i in this cave instead of my own home?

"My darling. Everyone is looking for you. It's nearly nightfall.... (Pause) Sweetie, what's wrong." She says, worry lacing throughout her voice. 

"Mother... I don't understand. I'm so confused." At that point I broke down, my hard exterior walls that have been up since the age of 9 came crumbling down. My mom held me while I cried and told her everything that had happened. All the beatings from my father, how much the fearing expression of my one true mate had hurt me. I even told her about the visions. 

"Listen my child, Nothing in this world of ours is easy. You have to take it one baby step at a time. Demion, was worried for your life. You didn't realize it but Tiffany was part Witch. She used several of her powers but you were not fazed by them. It's as if you were a wall of cement. As for the vision, it was probably just something from the future. I'm here for you baby, and i will never leave you like the dead-beat of a dad you were cursed to have did. I love you sweetie, and a mother's love isn't replaceable." She hugged me tight and wiped my tears. 

"Mom? Can you keep this place a secret. This is going to be my new hide-away." I replied quietly. 

"Of course, sweetie.  Now let's go your Husband-to-be is frantic about your disappearance. So is your little sister, she hasn't shut up since you ran off." 

I smiled and thought, 

I finally belonged with a family that loved me.
