BloodMoon Child | ✔️

The Book.

" Now we have to read that book."

💀💀💀

Dean grabs the book and sits on my bed. " Wait, I have school tomorrow...", I say. " People like us don't need sleep.", he says, and flips open the book.
" Shall we begin?", he asks. I nod.
The first page was in red ink. A very short paragraph. It said:

" In these words you shall read, the following is all true. The children in this book have the scariest demon inside of them that the human race has yet to discover. But heed my warning, once you read this, you can never go back. You have been warned. Heed my warning."
- Dr. Linstrawd III

" Are you sure we should be reading this?" I asked.
" Yes, I'm sure. You are supposed to. Dr. Linstrawd III is your grandfather. That's the name he went by. He wrote this book. You can read because you have his blood."

Blood Moon Children History.
"In the beginning, when man and woman discovered the blood moon, many thought that it was a sign of bad luck. The blood moon symbolizes apocalyptic belief or belief that the end is near. Children who are born during the week or month of the blood moon have a chance of absorbing its powers and becoming a Blood Moon Child, with glowing red eyes, and dark wings. Do not mistake them for evil creatures. They are outcasts. Creatures who can choose whether to fight against good or against evil. The choice is up to them. If they aren't able to choose, a demon is released inside of them, that can threaten man-kind in many ways. Torture, murder, hauntings, poltergeists, even kidnappers.
Blood Moon Children often become guardians for the living. But, very few fall in love with their guardian. If they do, their guardian must choose, either to kill them and take the living with them, or re-kill themselves and forget about their host."

My grandfather wrote all this? Was he a Blood Moon Child, too? And even more... was he a guardian for me? Is that why he died when I was so young?

💀💀💀

I turned the page, then heard a faint snore coming from behind me. Dean. He was fast asleep. Didn't he say people like us don't need sleep?
The time was 1:03 A.M. I put the book underneath my bed and covered myself with a blanket before sleep took over my body. I felt a cold hand go over my waist and rest at my side.

" I don't want to break you. I can't lose someone else, too."

Dean.
