MUST READ PROLOUGE!! Or you will be lost.

Prologue:

I screamed in pain. I felt her teeth sink deep into my flesh.

That wasn't why I was screaming.

My brother was dying in front of my eyes. Please don't leave me, I thought. With that desperate thought, I gave a final sob and sank into the black.

***

Pain.

Excruciating pain.

A...voice?

"It's OK, it's fine, you're fine." a voice cooed, like someone talking to a child.

"What...the...HELL!" I yelled, jolting upright.

"Oh good, you're awake. I was worried it wouldn't work." said the voice in a tone of immense relief.

"WHAT wouldn't work? WHO are you? WHERE IS MY BROTHER?!" I yelled.

"The transformation, I'm Sierra, you're brother is over there," she pointed to a dark corner to where i scrambled over to immediately." and you do not need to yell." she said, her eyes looking faintly unfocused.

"Zachariah? Zachariah! Wake up." I sobbed, my heart twisting in pain at the thought of living without my brother.

"He won't wake soon, Anne, give him time." said Sierra.

"How do you know my name?" I said, my focus snapping back to her. I took the time to really take notice her. She was wearing a pure white dress made of a silk so expensive it could probably fund a small family for a month. She had hair a color of rich red, and she could have been a duchess if not for the eyes. They were a deep midnight violet. They were the eyes of someone who'd seen too much darkness in the world.

"Do you know who you are?" she asked abruptly, and in my opinion quite idiotically.

"Of course I know who I am," drawing herself up to her full height she said "I am Anne Marrizi of the Marrizi family, one of the richest family's in Italy."

She shook her head sadly, "You are Ankasha, of the clan of the Существо ночи. Roughly translated, a creature of the night. Our race are hunters, immortals,and feed on the life force of humani. We can still eat and feel but we require blood to survive."

"No. That is NOT true, I-" I broke off harshly interrupted by my brother.

"It's true. Father told me about our ancestry, he was planning to tell you tomorrow, before you got us into this mess." he barked out emotionless. I felt my heart give a sharp jab.

"Brother, you know I never meant to do this to us", I reached out trying to embrace him. "I-"

Slap

The sound echoed through the room only broken by brother's harsh breathing and Sierra's cry of anxiety. I whimpered in pain, the pain of the slap was much harsher than it should have been.

"Mute your emotions," said Sierra, "we can block out emotions at will." I tried, imagining a wall blocking the turmoil I felt and immediately felt a bleak numbness. The last thing I felt was a dim stab of misery as I saw my brother storming out the door.

"Don't you dare follow me." he said as he looked behind him in disgust. At me. But you promised mother you would take care of me, I thought feeling another stab of pain.

" Well? How do you feel?" asked Sierra, looking faintly nervous.

"I don't feel." I said, feeling drained of all my pain, all my passion....all that hurt.

"What have I done?" Sierra said softly.
