That was the last straw, all I could see before me was red. I stood up and made the chair fall backwards and I slapped Lucas as hard as I could.

Soon, an unfamiliar voice spoke up, which I realized was mine but with a hint of evil as a weird disturbing energy came across me and took control.

"You say one more thing about you owning me or zoe not being part of the family, you filthy shit, I will rip you apart. Every inch of your body will be covered in your own blood, you hear me?"

Lucas lowered his head in submission while all the other people at the table were starring horrified. With that, I stomped out of the house into the dark forest.

I didn't know why Zoe was so important to me or why I trust her so much. Since I met her, I feel like I should protect her. The beast inside of me was raging at Lucas' words.

A familiar sharp pain came back. My back felt like it was being torn apart and all I could do was scream in agony and fall on the grass.

My tears were about to fall when I heard the sound of someone or something running towards me. Was I perhaps hallucinating? Those thought quickly disappeared when her scent hit me. Zoe was here. She fastened her face and dropped on the ground next to me.

"Oh no no no no not right now! This is not supposed to happen this soon! She's not ready!" Ready? Ready for what?!

I always thought I was going to die with style. Well I probably looked pathetic right then. This is how I was going to die, huh? Life was shit anyway.

"What is happening...?" I fought to keep my eyes open and looked at Zoe who was shaking.

"O-Okay Rachel, don't panic! Everything will be fine! Breathe and stay calm!" I tried to do what she instructed but a wave of pain hit me once again. Black dots were dancing before my sight.

Zoe looked scared and happy at the same time when two bloody wing bones grew out of my back with a few pure black feathers here and there, ripping my skin apart.

"I'm not losing you again, you hear me? You went through so much just for this moment. I love you sis." The last thing I could hear before I blacked out was Zoe's warm words, and that was it. I fainted.
