Verenna, 17 years old with no real friends. Surrounded by liars and is slowly falling apart.
Then there's Kaiser, will he be exactly what Verenna needs or be the last piece that terns her apart?
"Why should I even listen to you? You've lied and made it clear I mean nothing to you" His words left a burning hole in my heart. I was stupid enough to believe he actually cared for me. He made me a fool and I let him do it because I felt something for him.
"Verenna, please just listen to me. I do care about you and I never meant to hurt you" Even after everything he still has the audacity to lie to my face. I shouldn't be that surprised though, for all I know lying is all he has done.
"Bullshit. Just leave me alone" I felt the tears sting my eyes, threatening to fall. Before Kaiser could see me cry, I left his room and made my way downstairs and out the front door to my car.
Falling in love wasn't made for me. I wanted him to love me, and for a moment I thought he did. What would it take for me to feel happy?

"I'm what you call a psychopath, ever since that day, I craved the feeling of hurting someone, up until I was fourteen, when it happened. Every time I hit someone, I craved more, until I saw blood, I wouldn't stop, keep doing it, until the person couldn't move, and I would watch, as the person became more helpless, and I wouldn't be able to stop the grin on my face, I would love every single second of it, and only after the trance, I would realize what a sick person I was, for loving the pain I gave, then I would cry, until my body shook and no more tears could come" I look into his grey eyes "And I'm scared, scared that one day I might lose myself to this other side of me, scared that I won't be able to pull out when I was in, that I would lose every emotion I have, I would lose my dad, my brother, my best friends" Tears brim my eyes "Scared that I might lose you" --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Kai Winters River Morales A demon meets his superior, It's not what anyone thinks, It's more, Will fear get in the way of everything, Or will understanding be the foundation of something to come?
