What is death? Is it a black hole you just constantly fall into? or is it an angel coming down from the heavens lending a hand out, so you can reach up and they can fly you off to the heavens with you in their arms? And if its not like that how do you know if you died? What if death.... Wasn't death? I was in my own head trying to wrap my mind around the fact that I had no idea what was going on. I couldn't see or hear anything around me, I was just floating in pure darkness, and just when I thought this was finally the end of me I felt a rush of fear enter my body. I could feel an ice-cold hand wrap around my ankle and forcefully pull me down into water. I tried to get a breath in before I could feel the water coming up to my face but it was too late, I could already feel the air in my lungs being replaced with water with every second that went by, and as I felt the last bet of air escaping my mouth I was suddenly pulled out of the water and laid on the ground. My head was spinning, and my lungs burnt with every breath I tried to take, in my soul I knew this was another dream.

"raven is dying", I turned my head to see jinx standing there not even bothering to help me up. This would explain why when I called to her, she didn't help, but why was she dying? how can a soul that was meant to follow me through all my past lives be dying now? Was this my doing? The questions I had just kept swirling around in my head and I couldn't think of an answer to any of them.

"if you really want to know, why don't you just ask me" raven appeared right next to me just laying on the ground staring up at the stars like everything was ok in the world. "Raven, what's happening to you?" I could hear her breath in and out. "you broke your family's trust when you let jinx in... the witch that locked her away felt the chains of her demon come undone. Since jinx is out and her life force lives inside you I must die, the witch cursed me and jinx" I couldn't understand why she had to die though, there was just so much I needed answered but I could tell raven was about to cross the barrier into death. Even jinx looked heart broken about the ordeal, to think a demon cared about someone that was set on keeping her locked away for so long.

"jinx is my sister... my father turned her into this, I'm the one that called on the witch to lock her away not knowing that the price for doing so would lock my soul into the family line as well. A soul for a soul... that's what the witch told me before I was locked away to serve the next Luna. Since jinx has bonded with you so my soul must finally die for hers to survive, that is the price I must face for letting her get out". With every word that lift her lips I felt my heart breaking for her. I did do this to her, for over a thousand years she has been fighting to keep jinx away and I just let her out, so I could get revenge. maybe I was just as bad as jinx? All my past lives where able to fight away the demon within but me. I was the undoing to the family curse, and I alone was the one that had to answer to it with the death of my wolf.

"I know I wasn't the best person to you when I first became your wolf but promise me you won't let jinx consume your soul...." and with that raven was gone from my body. Even though I had jinx I felt cold and a lone, it was like losing my father all over again and I couldn't stop the pain, and speaking of the pain it felt real, a little to real for me to handle. my arm started burning bad and when I tried to get up from the ground I felt hands holding me down but when I looked to my wrist I couldn't see hands holding me, but the feeling was there. I looked to jinx for help but seeing me suffering was just making her laugh. I should have known the sympathy that she had for raven earlier wouldn't last long, her demon blood was making her soul go crazy again and she couldn't help but to crave the pain of others even if it was my own pain. Just as I thought the pain wouldn't stop anytime soon I got a rush of relief though out my body and I felt myself coming back to reality once again.

"your finally awake? I thought you where going to be asleep forever"

The voice sent shivers down my spine and with that I jumped up out of the bed I happen to be in and fell to the ground hard. I heard a laugh from the corner of the room and looked up to find a man with dirty blond hair looking down at me, he had bright green eyes and a little facial hair that made it clear he wasn't much of a shaver. He was wearing a black shirt with baggy blue jeans, you could tell he was about twenty by the way he looked, he had a couple scars on both his arms and one below his cheak that made him look like a badass. I tried to focus on my other surroundings just to be surprised that I was in an all-white room, the walls didn't have a single picture and the only furniture was the bed I fell out of and a chair in the corner where the man was standing. By the bed was a monitor with tubes coming out of the side of the matachin leading to my arms. To say I was freaked out was an understatement, I was losing my mind and my first instant for some reason was to pull the tubes out of my arms. As soon as I pulled at them and one slipped out of my skin, blood started dripping out of my arm and before I had the chance to scream from the pain the man came rushing to my side with a towel and pressed it down on the wounds I created.

"that was stupid little girl! What the hell do you think your doing" he said, "who are you" I needed to know where I was out because for once I knew I wasn't dreaming. I could feel jinx in the back of my head telling me this guy was safe and I needed to calm down, for once I felt I could trust in her words, but I still didn't want to let my guard down so fast, not until I got answers first. I pushed his hand away but kept the towel and pushed down on my wounds myself, and just as I did that he made a frustrated look and walked over to the seat by the bed and sat down and looked right into my eyes.

"you my dear are at my house" he rubbed his face and continued what he was saying "I have a rogue pack, we are the outcast of different packs and clans from around the world, since we have witches and werewolves here we aren't considered a real pack, because of that we earn our money by doing the dirty work other "real" packs cant do. I ran into a woman that lost her sister to a couple hunters and her pack offered us a handful of money to find her just because her sister was the Luna, but as luck would have had the same place you got out of was the place we where finding. Every girl we talked to said you saved them... so tell me how is it, that a little girl like you killed over 20 people all by yourself?"

The questions he was asking where to complicated to explain to someone, hell I couldn't understand myself. Who would believe a little girl telling them that a demon has been locked away and I let her out to kill people, that would just make me sound crazy. So how was I going to do this? how can I convince someone that I was harboring a demon inside me that loved to kill. To top it off I must explain that I'm also a royal, my head was already hurting from everything I was thinking about, that was until jinx figured out how to help me finally. "he isn't normal, being a demon makes me see into the souls of others, his soul isn't a normal werewolves' soul. I think he is a warlock as well and if I'm right all he has to do is look into your mind and reach out for those memories from that day" I nodded in understanding and looked up to where to man sat.

"jinx said you have to use your powers to look into my mind" he looked surprised I knew what kind of person he was. "how did you know what I was?" I tried to explain but he soon cut me off, realizing he would find out later anyways. "while if we are going to do this I suggest you prepare yourself for the pain that comes with this spell , since I will be going into your head its going to take a lot out of you and me" and with that he walked over to me and put both hands on each side of my head, I could feel the warmth of his hands and could smell the sent of his body. And when I was just about to place the smell he smelt like pain rushed into my head and I started screaming, I tried getting away but he kept a good hold on my head , he looked into my eyes "just stay with me and look into my eyes the pain will go away soon just bear with me a little longer" and just like that the pain stopped and images of that day floated out of my mind and flashed into his like he was watching a horror movie.

He slowly moved away from me and fell into the chair again looking like he just ran a marathon. "you're a complicated little girl, the demon inside of you is actually bounded to your soul. You do know that demon comes with a price, right? The reason she is a peace in you body is because of all the killing you let her do, once you stop killing she will take over, so you have to find away to keep her in check, and I think I know just the thing that might help you with that problem". but the real problem right now was Could I bring myself to trust this man? After all my experience with adults wasn't good besides my memories with my dad. I guess I have to wait and see how this will turn out...
