We were all puppets on strings to them, pull, pull, pull, and we would dance. They sit aloft in their mansions, dressed in all the fineries, laughing at those they controlled, like demons in the night. Their eyes used to haunt me, inhuman, cold, demonic, fractured. But over time I realized that my eyes were like theirs, one day I looked into the mirror and I saw madness. Their actions broke the world in their lust for money and power. Their mistake was to think that such a mass of slaves would remain asleep. Humans are all capable of disastrous evil, every single soul could snap into a powerful murdering machine. Their mistake was getting the sheep to fight each other, the sheep became dogs which became hellhounds snapping at their gilded golden gates. What about me, you might ask. I was no dog, snapping against my chains. I was more, or maybe I was less. I was the shadow, I had no name, I had no face, no voice, only an Echo. My echo was the ringing of a rifle as my fated bullet ripped away whatever life you thought you lived. While the dogs bit the hands of their masters I did what had to be done, I killed them. To be evil is to accept that level of reality, the reality that change doesn't come in verbal battles of morals and god. The rich don't fear god, nor do they really follow his example. No, they fear the echo, because in the end that's what they hear as they die. They never knew me, and they never will.

Sanity

Drifting through the days with her group of friends, Sammy only cared about escaping it all with the help of casual sex, drugs, and alcohol until she met Brett. He swept her away, and the werewolf world consumed her. Partying took a backseat to the passion and danger filled life as an alpha's mate took over. Suddenly she finds herself struggling with what is real. "Hello Samantha. Do you remember me?" His voice rang in my brain clear and deep. I nodded my head, shock covering my face. Noticing it he reassured me, "Don't be afraid. You know me, my voice. Listen and breathe. You are safe with me." He kept talking to me in my mind. Focusing on the voice I almost didn't realize he was sifting back into his human form. "Brett?" I questioned him aloud. "Yes." He answered simply. "We must go, follow me." "Where are we going?" "Trust me. You are safe." He held out his hand, and I broke eye contact. Looking down at his hand I noticed his naked skin. His body tensed; it was as if he could sense my attraction the instant I felt it. "I'm sorry." I said looking away as I realized I had been starring. "It isn't anything to be embarrassed about. It's an animal instinct. It's natural. Humans only suppress it because they think it's rude. It isn't." He didn't say it like he was bragging but instead with a reassuring confidence about him. "It's actually extremely attracting when a female shows arousal outright." I was shocked; he described me like a lioness in heat. Almost as if my attraction to him was a sign saying 'come get me.' It made me extremely uncomfortable.
