<~ appearance was beginning to portray the inner mess I was, the straightened hair and immaculate robes no where in sight. It was ~>

<~ fitting in a way. I felt like I was becoming a new monster… something different to what I once was and while I knew I had ~>

<~ always been a monstrosity, even to the vampires of the world, I was beginning to think that they hadn’t seen anything yet. ~>

<~ Another small yelp approached my ears, the cracking of bones shifting against skin and my features twisted to form a cruel ~>

<~ expression. Being tempered by #Aro and #Marcus was one thing, but allowing it for centuries? I swallowed the urge to shriek, ~>

<~ growl and curse at the mere notion of being leashed by such vampires. I had once been a terrifying savage, a beast that could ~>
