The world exploded into chaos. Screams, roars, the sound of claws on stone. I couldn't tell what was real, what was shadow, what was nightmare. My small body pressed against my mother, yet part of me knew we were being pulled apart, separated by forces far beyond my understanding.

Time itself seemed to warp. Seconds stretched into eternity. My heart raced, my mind screamed, but I could only obey. Run.

Everything went dark.

And then silence.

When I woke, I was in my bed. Familiar walls, the quiet of a house that had once been home. But something inside me had shifted. A memory buried, but refusing to stay hidden, like embers beneath ash, ready to flare back to life.

I could feel it in my veins-the power I did not yet understand. The weight of a destiny I could not yet name. The knowledge that I was not like the other children, not like anyone I had ever known.

I pressed a hand to my chest, heart pounding, and tried to make sense of it. But sense would come later. Now, there was only a single truth I could hold onto.

My name is Meredith Daniel. Velvet-red hair. Grey eyes. Dark lips that hold a whisper of power.
