1000 years later.

"Hello, are you listening?" Oliver asked his son who was staring at the boy sitting across the room. "Or are you just gonna watch Luka all day?"

Rayvon snapped out of his daze while his cheeks blazed red.

"No" He scowled.

Oliver chuckled but carried on.

"So your speech therapist is coming in an hour."

Over the years, his stutter came back and Rayvon asked for help which Vinny was very glad about.

It only appears after he says a paragraph or two but it still came back. It's better to get it sorted before it gets worse again.

Rayvon has heard his dad's stutter over the years but it has never shown itself enough for him to get help with it. He finally has it under control.

"Okay," He mumbled before taking his eyes back to the boy who he has learned to adore.

Ever since they shared that kiss many, many years ago, their feelings have only gotten stronger. Although, they haven't kissed since and haven't told anyone about it.

They're aware that things for them are different compared to normal sixteen-year-old boys. They know they are more openly affectionate which means they don't mind being close and giving each other hugs.

They also know that they like being close and they like making that physical contact.

Luka then sat forwards and shined his wings, they were irritating him.

When he hit puberty, he still continued to sleep and eat like a human which means he is only a half angel. He doesn't have angel strength and his body can't refresh itself like Panuleon's does which mean's his wings need constant attention.

They need to be washed often and most of the time he has to expose them while he's sleeping otherwise they get itchy and need to breathe.

He can't wash them himself so Panuleon and Corey help him with that task. Rayvon often helps too, he still loves the feel of the soft black feathers.

He did wonder why Luka's were a deep black colour with gold swirls in them when his dads were pure white.

But Corey said due to his powerful connection with his soulmate being on the surface, they think that Luka's is on the surface too, which is why he has one eye that is simply just gold.

Despite the fact that people still call Luka's eyes weird, Rayvon thinks they're beautiful and often catches himself staring at them.

He loves how the gold really does swirl and to him it still looks like magic.

Just then, Luka caught Rayvon staring at him and his cheeks went a little pink.

Oliver had been talking to him that whole time but his son clearly had other things grabbing his attention.

"I'm literally talking to myself," He said and still, he got no reply.

He shook his head in amusement before nudging Rayvon, making his elbow fall off the table.

His face was close to hitting the surface but he smoothly recovered. Although, Luka found that funny.

"Dad" He grumbled.

Oliver loved being called dad. He often thought back to the time when he was told he was pregnant. Even now, it seems insanely crazy.

"It's not my fault you're not paying attention to me" He grinned.

Rayvon shook his head and chuckled, just as Vinny stormed into the room.

The door smacked against the wall, making little Luka jump.

Vinny instantly looked guilty and apologised to him.

He then took a breath and walked over to his soulmate and his son who were sitting at the table.

Oliver's eyes followed him until he sat down.

"What's up?" He asked with a smile.

Vinny sighed and glared at the wooden table.

"She's back."

Oliver instantly knew who he was talking about.

"Who's back?" Rayvon asked, interested as to why his dad looked so angry.

"Do you remember me telling you I had a sister called Scarlet?" Vinny asked and watched his son nod. "Well it's her, she's here."

"Didn't you say she was a complete bitch?"

"Rayvon, language" Oliver said but it was true. That's exactly what Scarlet is.

"Yes, but don't call her that, she'll have a complete bitch fit on you," Vinny said as he shared an amused glance with his son.

"Vinny, you're the most amazing role model for your son," Oliver said sarcastically.

"I know" Vinny grinned but he knew Oliver was joking, sort of.

"Is she here right now?"

"Yes, Jed just told me that Duke and Madison let her in after almost fifteen minutes of arguing."

"It has been about, sixteen vampire years since we last saw her?" Oliver questioned, trying to get his years right.

"Yes and I was planning on never seeing her again" Vinny muttered with clenched fists.

Rayvon's eyes subconsciously watched Luka who stood up and put his wings away. He collected some books from the table before walking quietly out of the room.

He was heading to the library to put them back.

Nobody thought anything of it that he was going down the hallways by himself with that psychopath in the building.

It has been so long since there has been danger around but Luka was the worst person to be exposed to it.

He's so fragile.

As he continued to walk down the corridor, Jed was talking with John and didn't see him leave.

The boy turned a corner, giving little smiles to the staff who were saying hello.

But this grabbed the attention of someone who was lingering close by.

Scarlet stopped when she saw the boy with magical eyes.

Her gaze followed him down the corridor and she knew he was one of the 'miracle' kids.

But which one?

He was small and just like Corey, his head only came up to Panuleon's chest. If he was standing next to Rayvon, his head would be shoulder height.

He was also petite which means he was naturally cute, as Rayvon liked to think, although, he would never admit it.

As the boy opened the library door and happily wandered in, she looked around and made sure nobody was watching before she followed.

Luka loved the library.

Often, he would come in and Vinny would be sitting in there, having an hour to catch up on his reading.

He would talk to the kid about his favourite books and help him to gain a wider understanding of different authors and so on.

In Luka's eyes, Vinny was incredibly powerful and scary to anyone who got on his bad side. But he was also very kind and gentle. He understood how to be friendly to those who meant something to him.

He has never raised his voice at Luka and makes an extra effort to smile more when it's just the two of them.

When Scarlet entered the library, Luka was at the first bookshelf. He was standing on his tiptoes and trying to put the book back into its rightful place.

Vinny got this one for him and he's much taller than he is.

Scarlets eyes traced him up and down before she let go of the heavy door and allowed it to slam shut.

Luka jumped and dropped the book. He spun on his toes, startled by the loud noise.

He was surprised to see a woman standing there. She looked like she was in her late thirties. She had her arms crossed and a distant frown covering her moody face.

They stared at each other. Luka was too shy to speak up and Scarlet was purposely making it awkward for him.

She could tell by the way he jumped that he'd be easy to psychologically break.

"Who are you?" She asked bluntly. Her words were stale.

"U-Um, Luka," He said in almost a whisper.

"What, speak up," She said, making her voice purposely loud that it would make him jump again.

And it did.

"Luka," He said again and made sure it was a little louder.

Scarlet then glared at him.

The poor boy didn't know what to do. Who is this person and why was she looking at him with such hatred?

"Why are your eyes like that?"

Her words were still blunt and she was showing her annoyance in her tone.

"I uh, I don't know exactly," He said quietly and fiddled with the ends of his hoody sleeves.

"They make you look weird."

His heart dropped every time someone said that to him. He knew he was different and sometimes he got sad about it.

"It's not normal to have eyes like that."

Luka looked to the floor. He didn't know this woman but she scared him and he wanted to leave but she was stood next to the door.

"Why don't you wear contacts to at least try and look like less of a freak."

He felt his eyes getting warm and the tears were beginning to rise but he did his best to swallow them down.

"I'm not a freak" He mumbled.

Scarlet scoffed and started walking slowly towards him.

"I bet you're wondering who I am," She said while Luka took steps behind him until his back pressed up against the bookshelf. "I'm Vinny's sister."

Things suddenly made sense in the boys head. He has heard about Vinny's sister before and it was not good things.

He heard she was mean, nasty, cruel and pretty much heartless.

When Luka didn't show much of a reaction, she seemed angry by that.

She didn't stop walking until she was close enough to slam her hands on the bookshelf behind him, creating some books to fall down and bounce off his shoulder.

Luka gasped and wrapped his arms around himself. He didn't like this.

He didn't like this one bit.

"You're pathetic. I bet you're the feathered freaks son" She spat, referring to Panuleon.

Luka's eyes were now watery and he was beginning to tremble. He couldn't deal with situations like this.

But this person was a grown woman. She was an adult so why is she behaving in such a childish way?

Just then, the door opened and Rayvon walked in. Luka had left a few books in the dining-room.

He paused when he saw an unfamiliar woman in the room but when he saw the state Luka was getting himself into, he quickly walked over.

"What's going on, are you okay?" He asked as the boy reached out for Rayvon and grabbed his arm when he was close enough.

Scarlet was a little taken back by Rayvon's entrance.

He looked exactly like her brother only, he had green eyes and hints of Oliver in his expressions.

He dressed the same as her brother and had the same build and the same black hair. It was spooky how much he looked like him.

"Wait, are you Scarlet?" He questioned.

"Oh, well isn't it nice to know they mentioned me," She said and flicked her long hair over her shoulder.

"Don't flatter yourself" Rayvon scowled. He could feel Luka's hands shaking as they gripped his arm tight. He knew she had hurt his feelings.

He could see it all over his face.

"You must be my brother's son," She said. It was strange meeting him for the first time.

"What did you say to Luka?" He asked, not getting over the fact that he was so scared.

Scarlet rolled her eyes at the kid before crossing her arms.

"He's a freak and so are you."

He raised his eyes at her mean words, not really expecting it to come out as sudden as it did.

"We're not freaks-"

"Yes, you are" She interrupted. "You were conceived by two males. That's disgusting and not right. You're monsters and an embarrassment to-"

"Shut the hell up" Rayvon growled before stepping forwards. "I'm sick of your whining already."

"Excuse me-"

"What? You can give abuse but not take it?"

Scarlet frowned at him, she thought he would get upset like Oliver would at her words but he wasn't phased. He had heard it all before and Vinny taught him how to never let it in.

"Come on," Rayvon said before holding Luka's shoulder, sending warmth right through their arms.

"Wait a second," Scarlet said, stopping the boys which really angered the half vampire.

"Do you know yet?"

Rayvon looked at her with a deeper frown.

"Know what?"

"About your pathetic destiny?"

Scarlet somehow knew about the boys connection. But how?

"What're you talking about?"

"You seriously don't know?" She snorted.

"know what?" Rayvon asked. He was getting annoyed at her.

Scarlet was going to say it, she was going to tell them what their parents have kept a secret all this time.

She smirked, thinking that this might mess things up for them.

Just as she opened her mouth to speak, the door opened.

She turned to see Oliver coming in with a book in his hand. Rayvon dropped one on the way here.

But he froze when he saw that familiar face.

Scarlet's eyes scanned him. He looked older but he had aged very well and she could see why Vinny would be attracted to him.

Although, she still hated Oliver more than anyone.

"Kids, come on," He said, seeing that things weren't exactly playing happy families in here.

Rayvon could see his tense father and immediately did what he said.

Scarlet watched them walk up to him. She couldn't wait to cause havoc in this screwed up family of hers.

"Are you okay Luka?" Oliver asked.

The boy nodded but he still looked upset.

"Dads right," Rayvon said, loud enough for Scarlet to hear. "His sister is a bitch."
