It all started when she was young. Ashton was like any other girl except something seemed to set her off from others her age she...she liked to stay indoors away from kids her age. She read spell books and hid behind closed doors in an attic most of the time. She was born into a family of witches the only problem was her father was a mortal he had no powers and so they locked her away. Her mother became an outcast for she had made love to a mortal and made a half bred take life which had been looked down upon for centuries. Her mother's name was Ellie. Ellie was so beautiful and smart many witches wanted to be her many men wanted to be with her and she chose a mortal out of all the suiters she chose a mortal to fall in love with it discusted many. But Ashton was unaware of why she had been locked away from others, she was perfectly fine with it for she never had to deal with rude or obnoxious people but she also hated it for she never knew anyone other than the strangely tall man who would unlock the door three times a day with food for her. It wasn't until her 16th birthday did she find out her origins
