Crystal's story is like any other teenager's. If that meant any other teenager is an orphan living with her abusive uncle who would rather be anywhere but looking after her. And who occasionally makes things happen without meaning to.
Crystal has always known something was different about her, but she's never been able to put her finger on what it was.
Crystal has always been the type of girl to keep to herself, which isn't entirely her fault. Crystal's uncle has been her primary guardian since her parents died in an explosion in their lab when she was only three. Crystal's parents were scientists at the Toronto Crystal Lab Diagnostics or TCLD. When Crystal turned five, her uncle unleashed his anger on her, and when she turned ten, that abuse went from physical to sexual.
She has had to deal with her uncle beating her during the day and going into her bed at night to rape her for almost seven years now. She was too scared to fight it the first time it happened, as she was asleep at first, but when she woke up, she stayed there frozen. The first time Crystal tried to stop him, he hit her and forced her until she couldn't stop him. Since then, she has made fewer attempts to try and stop him.
Crystal is what you would consider a loner. She keeps to herself. People know her as the weird quiet girl who, well, who's just off. When men come into her school looking for her, she doesn't know how to act. And when they take her to a top-secret facility for the specially inclined, she is dumbfounded.
This can't be right. A Mystic? I've only heard about those in fairy-tails, and they're trying to tell me that I need to go with them immediately to this mystic compound? No, thank you. You've got the wrong person. Right?

Chronicles of the Unknowns: Control
"I could feel it. The full strength of my brother's power. I didn't know how far away he was, but he definitely wasn't nearby. And yet still, he was able to reach me. Able to trinkle into my humans thoughts and fully capture the falcon's mind with absolute power. I knew my brother was scared. That fear was what made him reach out. He didn't know what Giovanna and Leona had in for him. Or worse: he did. Even though I knew by brother was afraid I also knew was a force to be reckoned with. And although Giovanna had him, he wasn't going down without a fight. He didn't have to tell me he would help us find him. I already knew. Any information he sent to me was important.

Sins and Secrets Book 1: "How do you think all your little Alpha buddies will feel," he hissed, his hot, rancid breath whispering across the back of my neck causing my stomach to sink, "When they discover the dark secret you've been hiding? Do you think they'll respect you still? Do you think that little mate of yours will still want you?" At the thought of Tiberius, my wolf went crazy. My body jerked at the restrained that held me down, the smell of burning flesh filling the room as the silver began to cut into my wrists. "Go to hell." We snapped as my whole body began to go numb. "Oh can't you see, my sweet little bird," he came closer, his lips practically pressed against the skin on my cheek, "You're already there." --------------------------------------------------------------------- My name is Cara Eldoran. I am one of two Alpha's within my pack. Two years ago, I stood frozen to the ground and watched as someone I loved killed my older brother in front of me. There were no screams or tears.

They are being taken from their homes in the middle of the night and are never seen again. Sometimes I wish that being taken was my biggest problem.

I vowed revenge for my brother the day he died, and I will stop at nothing to get it. Not even the dark secrets that could destroy me will stop my lust for vengeance. ---------------------------------------------------------------------Complete
