Unknown POV

     "My dear, you are truly ravishing. Our little game of hide and seek is finally coming to a close." I grin, white teeth shining in the darkness as I watch the female figure move as her boyfriend takes her. You will be mine in time and you won't ever forget whose you really are.  A prick of blood swells up as my sharpened teeth poke my bottom lip, drawing blood. Licking my lips, I smirk at the delicious metallic taste. One single thought in the back of my mind, repeating helplessly.

   This isn't me, I don't know who I am anymore.

   I wake up with a gasp, my hands going to my lip, searching for blood. Sighing in relief, I get up and see the time is three in the morning. My feet hit the padded floor, no noise made as I go down the hallway on alert, glancing around the corners and walls with haste. Thank god no is up yet. I don't want to know what my punishment will be. Shuddering at the thought, I stop at the top of the stairs, hearing a screech from my stepmother. Lead fills my feet as I continue my journey for water, the high pitched noise getting louder in volume, incoherent words tumbling from the tainted mouth.

    "He is not my son and he never will be! You threw out his mother to what? To show her who this...thing  belongs to?" The voice mellows out to what was supposed to be a calm tone, but the grating of my ears state otherwise as I pause, at the entrance to the kitchen. What the hell is Grace talking about? I pause my movements only to realize the response was never spoken, footsteps thundering to my direction. The shadows seem to move around the area, mocking me as I find the empty cupboard, squeezing and twisting my body in, closing the doors not a second too soon. The voice of my father rings out with a deep hatred as I shrink back unconsciously at his tone of voice.

    "Never talk about my son like that. He is one of them just like she was. I would kill them in an instant if I could, but I did it show who has power over them. They mean nothing to me." Ice floods my veins as I feel time freeze at his last word, galaxy blue eyes wide with shock, hurt, and rage. I knew he hated me and mother, but never that much. My bottom lip quivers as I stop the cry wanting to gasp out, the two stopped right next to my hiding spot.

    "You're pathetic! Going to me when you had a perfectly fine wife and son waiting for you! I'll always be your second choice won't I?" The pain in her voice makes it clear that she loves my...father, but the next sentence makes my eyes move to the cupboard in surprise.

    "If you won't take care of him like a true son, I will. He might not be mine, but he deserves a better fucking father who doesn't abuse him! We are leaving tomorrow and nothing you can do will stop us. After all, you're only a pathetic human."
