• I was always alone, I never had anyone, no one was ever there for me, and the way I constantly searched for families to just take me in made things worse…it had been this way for more than two years now
    I was eighteen, I shouldn’t be looking, I should be on my own
    But when you're in a world of nothing but the dangers of demons, vampires, angels, and gods, you don’t ever want to be alone
    I didn’t even have a mate
    I wasn't disgusting looking if that’s what you're thinking of me,
    I just chose not to be desperate and pick some random person I could tell would hurt me
    I had failed many times before hand
    Always falling so quickly
    It was who I was
    I always gave my heart out to those who seemed to want it
    But of course, in the end I was mislead
    I looked around until I hit the main road of where all the signs were
    Finally, seeing one
    It was a newspaper on a royal family
    "New twins born by Maven of the Bloodlust line, welcome Afina and Zaji"
    I picked it up quickly
    Looking for where they are located
    Finally, after some time of scanning the paper and endless ink blots, I found it
    They had several different locations
    Because they had been so rich, so famous, so big and successful, that they had 1 beach, 3 clubs, 1 wedding hall, 2 Christmas halls, 1 office, 1 spa, and 1 house
    All open to the public except for the house and wedding hall
    I figured they would be in the office, so I went there
    I looked inside finding a young girl with cat ears typing quietly on the computer
    She looked up
    I looked at her and growled as I found she was a lycan
    OUR kinds slave
    I stopped myself soon enough as she spoke up
    "can I help you?" she asked softly
    "is…the bloodlusts here?" I asked politely
    She smiled
    "no, but you can try their beach, last I checked, they all went there, apparently there's drama" she said
    I nodded and started walking out
    But before I did, I heard her mumble to herself
    "as if there isn't enough drama with Shan"
    Shan? Who was that? Was she one of the daughters?
    I found the beach and walked over to the huge house and patio
    I looked around hearing yelling and a girl with deep blue eyes, tinted red with rage, while her tan skin shone in the light, and her curled brown hair moved and bounced with every gesture or movement she made
    "look, like I said, NO hitting, IT IS A RULE, and NO touching! And ABSOLUTELY POSITIVELY NO F***ING!" she screamed at two teenagers
    While a girl in the back rolled her eyes
    "they're my friends Maven, I told them they could, dad's not here anyways, and mom's too into her studies" the other girl snapped back
    She was much different
    Her hair was pitch black and had one blonde streak, all of it tightly fit into a bun, while her loose dress hung on her, and her purple eyes glowed with attitude
    The one called Maven soon was set off the top
    I wouldn't have blamed her
    This was a public place, they could take it at home,
    "umm…e-excuse me?" I asked nervously
    The one with black hair looked at me glaring
    "yes?" she asked looking me over
    Damn…probably should have worn something other than this…
    Allow me to describe myself first before we go further,
    I have black, and I mean, BLACK hair, raven black, which is also my name, Raven, full name, Raven Helena, I have silver eyes, that turn red, black and sometimes blue, I have high cheek bones and thick hair, I'm very pale skinned to almost no pigmentation and I dye parts of my hair colors depending on the outfits I wear, at the moment, I happen to be wearing a tight black corset, boy shorts, fishnets showing just above my thigh high platform boots, and a ribbon with a sliver bell around my neck
    She looked me over once more
    "this isn't a whore house hun, that's all the way across town" she said rudely
    I backed away a bit
    Maven rolled her eyes
    "Shan, shut it." she said rudely back at the one I presumed was Shan
    Maven then looked back at me
    "what's your name sweetheart?" she said kindly
    "Raven Helena" I said softly
    Maven widened her eyes
    "wow, lucky, that's a beautiful name" she said with anticipation
    I nodded "thanks, but, call me Raven for short" I said
    She smiled and nodded "will do"
    She pointed to a beach lounger
    "make yourself comfortable" she said cheerfully
    Ignoring the loud moaning coming from a small distance away, I smiled and sat down on the lounger looking around me
    My eyes scanning the room, taking in every detail as I tried to relax myself from everything that was going on
    "so, what brings you here?" she asked
    I looked at her
    "just…looking around" I said quietly
    "are you alone? Do you have a family?" she asked suddenly
    "no, I'm alone" I said shaking my head
    I heard her gasp as I quickly looked at her with confusion
