"I ran and kept running from the beast chasing me. His skin black as charcoal, fangs drenched in a red liquid. Breathing heavy as he gripped onto my shoulder we fell to the ground, causing him to land on top of me. 

He laughed diabolically, " You're so worthless Brylee. And to think you're the hybrid Queen? Your nothing but a weak minded dress up doll. Demion and your mother will be thankful for me killing you. " He took out a silver stake and jammed it through my heart, the silver cascaded into my arteries and veins burning me from the inside out. I couldn't scream, I sat there paralyzed. "

"Your so weak Brylee, worthless, Demion would be happy to have you dead..." 

I sat up in bed as I blinked back the tears. That felt too real to be a dream...Getting up from my bed I went to the blinds of my room, pulling them back I glanced at the night sky as my mind went off to Demion. My wolf craved his touched, Ebony missed his calming aurora. All of me wanting him but in the end, I knew he would only get hurt because of me. 

"Brylee, he's the only one that makes us happy besides our family. We just got happiness, please don't take it away, If you do then all of this was nothing. Hoping for a better future was for nothing! Brylee fate chose this for us! We have people who depend on us, Demion, your mom and Stepdad, little Ebonie... Your unborn Twins... If you give this up we'll die then leaving your dad was pointless, " My wolf and inner vampire pleaded and retreated into my mind. 

Looking back onto the hush land made me want to go for a walk, so I did. Grabbing my Converses I traded my Shorts and T-shirt for an outfit.

Walking from my bedroom, I checked the hall for guards, I wanted to go unnoticed for once

Walking from my bedroom, I checked the hall for guards, I wanted to go unnoticed for once... no questions asked. I made it down three flights of steps before getting passed the thrown room and towards the castle door. Stepping into the night, I walked down the gravel road as the moonlight shown down on me. There was an open land of grass on this side of the castle, on the right side of the gravel road was a small pond that had tiny little fish swimming around, and over the pond was a bridge. I sat on the edge of the bridge and dangled my feet off the edge the side as my mind drifted off to the nightmare I wouldn't sleep from. Taking a deep breath I looked up into the dark night sky, wishing and hoping I could be the person everyone wanted me to be. Standing up I continued my walk, kicking little rocks I made it to another pond that had a bench. The fountain in the middle had a light that changed the color of the water, and red Roses flowered around the pond. The moon created a shadow of itself in the water causing me to think of Demion again... 

"Why was I given someone who can give me everything? Although I can give nothing back," I stated to myself, "He's everything I don't deserve, He's so much better than me. He deserves someone who can give him the world... I'm such a fool." 

"Brylee..." He breathed out.

"Demion, I didn't know you were up. What are you doing here? Did I wake you?"I said quietly, a tear fluttered my cheek as I continued to stare at the water.  He stepped closer and sat next to me. 

"Scar sensed you needed me. Ebony unintentionally said you needed me, so I came." I nodded and turned to my left to wipe the tear that betrayed me. 

"Brylee," he said, softly grabbing my chin and making me look at him. My eyes fell upon his eyes, the Whitish blue eyes that held so much happiness, and so much love. I was falling and somehow I knew he'd be there to catch me. "Your everything to me Brylee. I grew up thinking I didn't have a mate. I was told guards don't have time to love. Now look at me, I've known you for less than a month, you've been dead for most of that time and you've managed to have me wrapped around your finger. Why don't you deserve me, " he finished with a sad expression?

" Because Demion, I'm nothing. I grew up to a father who never loved me. I was the girl no one loved, I have no friends, I'm ridiculously ugly, I'm weak. I'm a girl who has scars all over her body. You deserve someone who can give you the world, someone special, " I choked out. 

"That girl has no effect on me because she doesn't exist anymore baby. Don't you see? Those scars are just a reminder that things get better. You have a little sister, a mother who misses you and loves you more than her own life, you have a man who is looking forward to giving you a father-daughter relationship you deserve.  Brylee, I don't care what people use to do, because I'm here now, and as long as I stand by your side no harm will ever come to you. Your my Diamond in a sea of coal. Your so beautiful you don't even know it.. but that's okay because I'm here to show you now. The days you were gone changed me, Bry... It felt empty, my happiness was sucked away. I fucked up and I know sorry won't help it. But Brylee? You're the missing piece to my puzzle and I can't be complete without you being my future." I couldn't help it anymore, the tears flowed and I wrapped my arms around his neck, jumping onto his lap I cried into his neck. 

"Please don't leave me Demion, they all do at some point. I... I... Accept you as my mate. I'm falling hard for you, please catch me, " I cried out as I looked at him, tears leaving stains on my cheek. 

"I will catch you whenever you fall, I'm never ever leaving Bry... Brylee," He said and placed a hair behind my ear?

"Yes Demion, " I whispered.

"C-Can I kiss you?" 

Moving forward I placed my lips on his, tingles shooting down my neck and onto the rest of my body. He wrapped one hand around my waist and the other was placed on my cheek, slowly wiping the remaining tears away. Pulling away, I was breathless and as he smiled back at me I knew that wherever this man was, I belonged right by his side. 

"Let's go baby, I'll carry you back to your room, " Demion said as a sad expression littered his face. 

"Demion, take me to our room please, I wanna be with you," I stated with a small smile. His expression went to happiness and I was lifted into his arms. One minute we were under the soft moonlight, the next I was standing in a light green room with white furniture. Soft blue linens, blue and white throw pillows littered the bed. 

"I hope you like it? Your mom thought we needed a room for the castle. You can sleep in a shirt of mine and I'll grab your stuff in the morning if you'd like, " He stated with a soft smile. I nodded and went into his drawer, grabbing a black shirt I went to the bathroom and changed leaving my clothes in the woven basket. Getting into the bed I turned to see Demion's peaceful expression, he placed a kiss on my forehead. As I turned around he wrapped his arms around my waist, pulled me closer and whispered, "Goodnight my beautiful mate." I went to sleep with a smile on my face.
