Two visitors in one night were enough, thanks. But the third didn't give me much of a choice. Sebastian appeared just as Brad left, so near me and so silent that when I turned to go inside I actually cried out in terror.My heart rate slowed as I realized who it was. The leader of the Blood Clan DeWinter actually smiled at my reaction."Demon girl," he said. "You look well.""You too," I said, rubbing my arms and the goosebumps he gave me. Please tell me he was looking for Mom. I wasn't sure I could handle another in depth conversation, and knowing Sebastian and his particular dark sense of humor, I'd end up blushing. It was only then I realized he looked better than well. Much better. In fact, he looked fantastic. Mind you, he was always handsome, with his dark hair and eyes and that chiseled jaw. I'd always thought he was handsome from the moment we met. But there was something more about him now, enhanced. He almost seemed to glow with it, though I know normal eyes wouldn't see w

Mom actually gasped and spun around when I walked in the kitchen, staring at me with her huge blue eyes like I'd attacked her or something. Craptastic. I realized I had to be broadcasting again. Roping in my magic was still hard."Syd," she said. "What's wrong?" "Nothing," I grumped. "Sorry."She stepped forward, tried to hug me, but I wasn't in the mood to be comforted.I escaped her and ran up to my room, spending the next several hours trying to focus on my homework while avoiding my mother's mental questions about how I was and why I radiated so much anger. I finally managed to put a cap on it when Sassy marched into my room, fur standing on end."Sydlynn," he snapped, amber eyes glowing amber with demon fire, "pull yourself under control before I do it for you. You're disrupting the entire household."Fine. I slapped up some shields, used my magic to shove him out my door and slammed it behind him.It wasn't fair! Because it wasn't my fault. I collapsed on my bed, feeling

I was so wrapped up in my head that I almost ran right into Pain at the front doors of the school. I glanced up at the last minute, jerking back from her as she scowled at me, arms crossed over her chest."Hi, Pain," I said. "What's up?""That's what I'd like to know." She sounded really pissed. Was her makeup not so thick? And where were all her piercings?"Sorry?" I was so stunned by her missing hardware I didn't put anything together."I'm tired of how you're acting around Benjamin." Pain's booted foot tapped impatiently on the concrete step. "You're making him uncomfortable."What? Bad enough she was so into him she treated Blood like crap, but she had the nerve to come after me?"Maybe," I snapped before I could stop myself, "if someone I knew gave a crap for a second about other people's feelings, she'd see I'm not the bad person here."Bad move. I spotted it the moment I started talking. Pain's eyes narrowed, her lips thinning out as her arms dropped, hands forming into f

Mom must have known something happened because she was waiting for me at the kitchen door when I staggered in and collapsed in a chair.She sat next to me, holding my hand, listening as I told her everything and how they all turned on me. I waited for her to tell me I was being stupid like everyone else did."If you think this boy is trouble," she said, "I believe you."Really? Mom was backing me? Mom never backed me. Okay, that wasn't exactly true or fair. But if Uncle Frank thought I was being a jerk, my mother should have, too."What am I going to do?" I just felt miserable, all wrung out and heavy like the world sat on my shoulders.She squeezed my hands. "One problem at a time," she said. "Your father wants us to contact him."I sat up immediately. "Why didn't you tell me?""I was just about to summon you when I felt you coming home," she said. "And as important as it is that we find out what is going on with your power, this was important, too."I loved my mother. We didn

Mrs. Hammond seemed very disappointed when I left. I took a few cookies out of pity and thanked her. That made her feel a little better, I think.Now if only I could find a way to cheer myself up.I'd screwed up. Now not only did Mia know there would be no reconciling between me and Benjamin, she also understood there was something about me that called to her. Unlike Brad, the latent talent, hers had been active once. And now it was breaking free, it would do anything it could to finish the job.Mom was going to kill me.The sun felt very warm as I plodded down the front steps on my way home. It was so cheery and bright I almost snarled at the sky. It was like my own little cloud of gray followed me everywhere and the sun was intruding on that.Not in the best of moods to have a conversation with anyone.Naturally, Brad chose that moment to approach."Hi, Syd." His smile was like the sun. Offensive somehow.I grunted back."I was thinking, since we're going to prom together, w
