Prologue
My name is Angelina Squires. Until a few months ago, I was living a nice, quiet, normal life. One night, that all changed for good. A destiny awaited me which I could never escape. Now, I find myself in the middle of a bloody and violent war. My calling is to help save the humans from demons who want to rule Earth. They can only achieve this when all Hybrids have been destroyed.
I’ve had to learn, fast, about many things. Things I’d only thought happened in dreams and books. My role is vital to both humans and Hybrids. This war will never end until the demons’ route to Earth is destroyed.
This is my story so far…
ChapterOne
Salvatore
Istood on the rooftop of the house I own with my twin brother, Luca, and listened to the sound of the night creatures. The cold winter wind whipped around me. I always felt so alive at night, much more than I did during the day.
“You’re restless this evening, brother.” I turned to see Luca standing behind me.
“The air smells strange tonight and I feel something. It… it’s almost like a monumental event is about to take place.”
“Do you think it could be her, Sal?”
There was a kind of nervous excitement in my brother’s words. A shiver of anticipation ran down the length of my spine. Sal was Luca’s nickname for me, although I preferred my full name of Salvatore. Women found it sexy, especially if I added my surname, De Laurentis. Over the centuries, my brother and I had found it quite amusing.
Shrugging, I gazed up at the inky darkness of the sky and breathed in the air. “Could be. No two experiences of discovering a mate are the same, so I’m told.”
Luca’s eyes shone in the darkness, his enthusiasm filling the air around us. So many centuries we’d waited patiently for her to make our life complete. Luca and I had shared everything in our long lives, including women we’d dated. Most times, it worked for the woman, although some couldn’t cope with the intensity of such a relationship. We were both incredibly sexual creatures with a voracious appetite when it came to lovemaking. I started to fantasise about what this woman, our woman, would look like.
A delicious fragrance wafted past my nostrils. It was the musky, sweet scent of a woman. Luca and I gaped at one another. This scent was intoxicating, unlike any other female’s signature scent. Need and desire slammed at my body with a force which took my breath away. My brother groaned with the weight of this heady aroma surrounding us.
“This is it, Luca. It’s our woman. It’s far too compelling to be anything else but her.”
“Where could she be?” Luca asked me.
“Somewhere within a thirty-mile radius. I remember our mother telling me about this phenomenon many centuries ago.”
Luca groaned with frustration. “Fuck! She could be anywhere. The city is only twenty-five minutes from here. This is going to be like hunting for a needle in a frigging haystack. And if a demon catches her scent, especially Viktor…”
I murmured my agreement and then clapped him on the back. “But you forget how much ground we can cover between us. Look.” I checked my watch. “It’s only a little after ten. Let’s go see if we can locate her.”
Not waiting for Luca to respond, I unfurled my wings and flew high into the night air. My gut instinct was to head directly for the city.
“It’s Friday night, Luca. I think we should check the bar and restaurant district of the city first.”
This form of telepathy between us was a useful tool when we were in flight. Our mix of angel and vampire blood also aided in keeping us invisible to any humans.
“Lead on, brother. I’m impatient to discover our mate.”
I couldn’t have agreed with Luca’s statement more. The need to be bonded with our mate was all-consuming. Although, finding her would be the easy part. Explaining the rest of her life from then on would be much more difficult.
