The tale of Malachai Parker was one known by many. He was a powerful boy, misunderstood and sheltered away from all because of his unique gift. On the night of his 22nd birthday, his twin sister, Josette, and him were suppose to perform the ritual of the Gemini Twin Merge. His sister and him were always close, but Kai knew his parents favored Jo over him. Every year on their birthday there parents would give the young daughter a single red rose. They said it was to represent her beauty, strength, and greatness. But Kai received nothing, his father called him an abomination and he locked him away from everyone. The lack of social  and physical interaction with others, caused him to go mad.  Malachai was a powerful siphoner, who did not have his own magic, but had the ability to absorb the magic from others. The Gemini Coven knew this and they feared that if the merge between Malachai and Josette occurred, Kai would win. They refused to have him as the leader. They claimed that he was psychotic, a freak of nature and they refused to have someone with such haunting traits hold the key to their fate. So Joshua Parker and his wife had another set of twins, Olivia and Lucas. They would wait until the new Gemini Twins turned 22, so they could perform the merge instead. This made Malachai furious and so full of hatred that he murdered a majority of his coven. With the blood of his family on his hands Josette put a spell on him. Turning him into the hideous beast  in which he acted like. The key to his transition back was one single red rose. Jo informed him if he couldn't find someone to love him for the way he was that when the last petal on the rose fell, he would be stuck that way forever. The raven haired witch trapped him in a dark castle, the spell affecting everyone who lived there. As more years passed Kai and all the others trapped began to lose hope, for who could learn to love a beast?
