Then she saw him. 
Standing by the gates, cap firmly on his head, eyes focused ahead and holding position.
For a moment the noise of the world seemed to blur and everything stilled. The light around him was the brightest, blanketing him in it. She found it hard to look away the strange connection pulling her closer, however his vigilance did not give away, continuing to look around. And then just as quickly, she looked ahead, the world snapping back into focus and the hum of life returning.

JAXON People are drawn to the good and the beautiful-those perfectly polished little things that catch the light just right. They're obsessed with the illusion of perfection, believing it will fill the cracks within them, convinced that beauty equals happiness. They chase after what they think everyone else desires.

They want to fall free in the forbidden darkness, that most people are afraid of. They want to feel the rush of the wind tearing past their skin, that most people are terrified of. They want the chills on every inch of their body and to taste the thrill of the unknown. They want something bad. And what do we do to girls who want to do bad things?
