Hey, this update will be the one that begins my new updating delay. I might update more often but my goal is twice a week for each story. Honestly that is better than most writers so I hope you understand. It takes me hours for one chapter and after I read through it a few times to make it what I want I spend around three hours per chapter. So I feel two chapters a week is fair enough. I hope you enjoy chapter 12.

(Arora's POV)

As I open my eyes I feel cold concrete under me. I push myself up into a sitting position and look around. I am back in the cells. I begin to remember yesterday, making me shiver in regret.

I feel tears running down my face. I killed my sister. I killed her without even flinching.

"KADEN!" I yell wanting to speak to somebody.

I hear running and he runs down the steps to the front of my cell.

"She is okay Arora. You two cant die from a broken neck." He explains and I smile sadly.

"That doesn't matter. I didn't know that. I thought I was killing her. And I did it anyway." I explain and he shakes his head.

"Alorah said your instinct took over, you couldn't stop yourself." he explains.

"Instincts and actions are different. You don't have to follow your instincts." I say and get up onto my feet.

I walk over to the bed and sit on it against the wall.

"Alorah said that like a wolf you have someone else inside of you that can take control. Laura has a wolf, and you a vampire. Yesterday they just both were in control. It was instinct for you two to fight. You are opposites and also enemy species." he says and I nod.

"Okay Kaden. Whatever you say." I tell him quietly.

He walks over to a wall and grabs the keys. He pushes it into the lock and my door swings open. He steps aside as I widen my eyes.

I use my newly found vampire speed to run and slam the cell back closed.

"I am dangerous Kaden. To everyone around me. Until I can control my vampire side I need to stay locked away." I say and he laughs.

"Arora, we are all tougher than you think." he says and pulls me out of my cell.

As we walk up the steps I decide to give in. Scared that if someone upsets me I will kill them.

"I am so sorry Arora, I didn't mean to make you angry. I wasn't saying those things my wolf was." Laura says running and hugging me.

I hear a low growl coming from Derek, knowing he is just thinking of L's safety.

"Yeah, I am sorry too. I couldn't stop. I had no say in what I done last night." I explain and she nods already knowing that.

We all walk to the family room and take seats on the couches. I with Kaden and L with Derek. We sit in awkward silence for a while and then a puff of smoke appears and Alorah emerges from it.

"That was some show you two put on yesterday. I see Arora's powers are emerging faster than Laura's." She says plopping down in her own chair.

"So... Do you two feel your other sides or is it more like an instinct?" she asks.

"I can feel it but when I am upset it is more like an instinct that I can not control. When I am calm I feel it scratching trying to constantly come out." Laura explains to her.

"And you?" she asks.

"Instinct. I can't feel my vampire side, it is a part of my brain. I definitely can not control it. It alters my thoughts and when I am upset forces me to do what it feels is right." I explain and she nods.

"A wolf can control their other side better than a vampire because it is a different being. There is a human and a wolf. Vampires are more merged together with their human. It is a human and a human with fangs." she explains.

"As for powers... that is where the silver comes in. Silver gives powers to those who has it running through their veins. You two have deferent amounts. The sun created the vampire, so your silver is stronger. The moon made werewolves have toxicity towards silver, meaning a silver wolf is barely silver. Some never even discover their powers." She explains.

This is all so confusing. There is so much that has happened in the past few days.

"Okay girls... come here. Let me read you, see if you will need taught magic or can teach yourselves." she says holding her hands out.

We stand and walk towards her. She takes our hands and closes her eyes. She begins to shake and whisper something I don't understand and then disconnects us.

"Laura, you can learn on your own. You have great power, but it will slowly show up throughout your life, it will not fully activated until you are at least three hundred." She tells Laura.

"And Arora, you will be taught. Your power is already out. You have more power than your sister will ever have, more than even me. I will teach you to the point that you excel my knowledge and then you will have to learn from experience." She says and I nod.

"When do we start?" I ask and she smiles.

"Now if you want. Go change and meet me in the gym." she says and I run up to my room.

I need to train as much as possible, the sooner I control my vampire side the better.
