"What's with the long face?" El's mother asked when she saw her take a step back, her eyes never leaving the mark on her neck. Her eyes shifted towards Andrian and he had the same mark too, and so did her father.
"Who are you?" She asked, confusion reigning her once peaceful heart. Her parents were not demons the last time she checked, and definitely not vampire bites because those healed.
"What do you mean?" Her mother asked, the smile still on her face. Rian and her father halted in their actions to look at her.
"We are your family," she said.
Elena shook her head in denial biting hard on her lower lip. "My family is dead!" She blurted out, the reality weighing her down. Yet, here they were, standing right in front of her and breathing.
"It must be the nightmares again," Rian suggested.
"That fall must have dealt your mind some damage," her mother added.
"What fall?" Elena asked, her gaze shifting between the three in confusion.
