See what everyone knew and nobody stopped was the black, blue and purple that paint every inch of her body.Her father, nope not quite, her demon craves the torn of flesh under their claws, the feeling of power and control and the sight of her beat, bloodied and pantsless. The Raine's are forced to move from Australia to North America for safety. Guess she isn't so ordinary.
