Aralyn

She leaned against the bridges railing, her eyes soft and hollow. She was thin, pale, and waiflike in appearance but her beauty was indescribable. Her hair was stick straight and fell past her shoulders, black as midnight and eyes a silvery blue in color. The only flaw in her body today was the fact that she had bruises under her eyes from lack of sleep, and pain in her heart. Conan was gone. She hadn't seen him for months, nor had she seen her father. Well, Benjamin really wasn't her father but he was like a father to her. Still in her sleep, she heard her real fathers voice beckoning to her, telling her everything was okay so long as she didn't tell a single soul. Images, blood, fire, death. Tears sprang to her eyes and fell to the water below. She wanted her family back. She thought for a moment of the two chldren she had at home and both love and hate mixed inside her belly. they were hers, but they were also his Jaden's spawn. And he was here. She had heard rumours of a man killing at will, for the least likely of reasons. She hated him. She hated herself. She hated Conan for leaving her, and she hated Ben for not being here. Hate, hate, hate. What would it be like to jump? She thought to herself, staring at the river below. She wasn't a strong swimmer, and the rivers were swift and strong as spring had arrived. Would you die instantly, or would you just... Fade away?

Damian Novokov

Damian had given up on Dimitri and Hunter for the moment. Dimitri was getting stronger, and Damian couldn't go for Hunter with Dimitri there.

So the beast set out for other targets. He knew Benjamin was getting in the way...so why not target his daughter?

Being a psychopath, he simply walked up behind her and reached out to grab her. "I've got you now, beautiful." He said with a wicked grin. "And don't try to run, devochka. You can't beat me." He wasn't going to kill her, no. He had darker intentions.

Aralyn

She screamed into his hand, kicking out and away from the bridge, trying to upset Damian's balance. GET OFF ME! She screamed into his hand. Tears began to stream down her cheeks. Not again. Please, please not again. She thought to herself. She had already been raped by Jaiden. Now Damian?!
