I tried to stay in my room. I really did, but after two days of being stuck in this dull room, I needed out. I try to sleep, just to pass the time, but I can’t. For the past two nights, I haven’t been able to sleep at all. It’s not like I won’t. It’s that I can’t. I physically can’t. My body isn’t tired. I don’t know what’s wrong with me. Usually, I welcomed sleep, but now, my body doesn’t want it. It feels as if it doesn’t need it. I just end up staring into the black ceiling.
And without sleep, I’m reckless, itching to get out. I keep pacing in circles and wildly bouncing the ball around, Apri gave me. Even it doesn’t stop me from being bored out of my mind. It also doesn’t help that Jensen hasn’t come back since …show more content…
I did choose this after all. It can’t be all bad.
Voices causes me spring to my feet, looking up. A long metal walk-way stretches above with two men walking above me. I shuffle to the shadows, hiding.

I resist the impulse to yell at him. I am not some brat and he’s the one who hate me. I haven’t do anything to him, yet he hates me. What right does he have to hate me? I saved Jensen and he saved me. We did what was right instead of following the forced beliefs of enrage people only seeking revenge. And Jensen’s father obviously wants revenge for something.
Has he ever seen or meet a demon who just wanted peace?
Cleary not, since he wants me dead.
“She’s barely a demon, Samuel,” the old man objects softly. “She changed a little more than a month and half ago and most of that time you’ve had her sedated. Why? She saved your son.”
“She’s damned my son. Now, he has this insane idea in his thick head that not all demons are murderous monsters,” Jensen’s father, Samuel, snaps. “He should have left her in the woods like I would have. Everything has gone downhill with that boy since his mother died. But don’t you worry, his brother will talk some sense into him after she’s gone.”
“Gone, sir? Like…”
Samuel stops. “Accidents happen all the
