"Don't worry little Gracie, here, look at the butterflies," Carter whispered, waving at the collage of glowing critters pinned to the ceiling of my bedroom. I buried my face in his side. I was trying not to cry. I wanted to be strong. His voice was always calm and collected at times like these. I never quite knew how he managed. "I promise you... there will be a day when all of this will come to an end, and you'll find your wings, Grace. You'll know, you'll understand." Carter wrapped his arms around me and pulled me close and I had never felt so secure in my entire life. Ever since Grace was a little girl, her brother had always been there for her. He had always stuck by her side. Through thick and thin. No matter what. That is until one day he goes missing without a trace, leaving Grace torn to pieces. Soon enough, a whole series of events begin to collapse around each other making situations a hell of a lot more complicated. Will Grace have the capability to find her wings?

Wren's life is about to change forever - but not how she expects it to. Kidnapped on her wedding day, she finds herself trapped in a mountain cave, unable to return home with no company outside of the inhuman creature that took her. *** "Wait, Wren! Not that way!" It was darker here and panic limited her vision, but she could see it reaching for her; its wings like two huge looming shadows behind it. "Get away! Don't touch me! No, let me go!" She shrieked. She screamed in earnest as a hand took hold of her arm, and then even more when her own hand reached for something to hang onto and grasped at empty air. She had been scrambling towards a sudden drop! The hands hauled her back, but she still struggled. She didn't want to look at it, and she still wasn't sure she wouldn't rather take her chances with the open air instead. "Stop it, I'm not going to hurt you! You'll hit your head on the rock or something. Wren, please!" It knew her name. Somehow it knew her. She was going to die! "Let me go! Stop touching me!" She was sitting on the rocky floor now with her back against an uneven wall, and it was trying to pin her down and hold her still. She kept her eyes turned away and struggled helplessly, but it was no use. It was strong like a human man too, and she couldn't keep it off of her. The wings had moved until they curved around them both and shut out a lot of the light. Its face was so near hers that she could feel its breath brushing against her skin. "Please just look at me for a second. Just look. I'm not going to hurt you." One of the hands grabbed her chin and forced her head to turn, and then she was looking straight into a pair of dark brown eyes. It had a human face too. She had been expecting something monstrous or ghastly, and the surprise made her falter for a moment. He looked young, with a bad haircut and an earnest expression on his face. "I'll let go of you, okay? Just don't lunge around like that anymore, you'll get hurt." He whispered.
