"I'm fine, thank you." I smiled at her ranting.

"Are you sure? We have plenty of-" I cut her off again by raising my hand.

"I'm good." She looked unsure but thankfully dropped the subject.

"I'm not really sure how this goes, but I assume Garrett has told you about me?" they nodded, "Awesome. Well I know next to nothing about you. Would you mind telling me a bit a about yourselves?" I asked, trying to sound professional.

They told me about their family and their belifs and I explained why I wanted to get adopted. This went on for a while, until I heard yelling from upstairs.

Dana and ryan heard it too and began to stand. I pushed them down again with my telekenesis, flashing my eyes a dominant purple and standing myself.

"You two talk, I'll take care of it." They nodded and in the blink of an eye I was standing in a theatre room. There were two vampires arguing, one I instantly recognised as Dana and Ryan's son. Anthony I believe. The other was a lesser vampire, obviously not is this family. Anthony's demon (It's like a werewolf's wolf, but for vampires) was growing angry, and I didn't want to risk a fight, so I went to comfort it.

stepping in between the two, I placed my hands on his shoulders. His demon immediatly recocnised me as his superior and submitted. The girl on the other hand, looked shocked.

"Anthony? What's happening? Is she the girl replacing me? I'm your mate, we were supposed so be together!" She spat and turned to me. "You will regret this, i can make your life miserable. You don't deserve him." Anthony hissed lowly at her and grabbed her wrist as she moved to shove me out of the way. His demon had now surfaced, fighting to get out. Through the internal struggle, his hand squeezed her wrist until the girl's cry of pain brought him out of his trance.

"It's broken." I stated calmly and went to help her. She hissed and moved away from me, tears streaming down her face.

"Let me help you" I whisper.

Her demon realized who I was and submitted. She was already starting to heal.

She looked at me fearfully, she had just disrespected her superior. I smiled warmly and held her wrist, healing it. She seemed surprised and glanced up at Anthony, looking heartbroken when she saw him staring at me in awe. I made my decision and in an instant, I transported us to the immortal realm and onto my balcony. Turning away, I set to work. Switching rapidly between multiple forms, I cast a spell on the railing. I looked at her again and smiled. She was once again staring at me with fear.

"What did you do?"

"You'll see. Come here." I sighed. She stood up hesitantly and walked the distance to the balcony, never taking her eyes off her shoes. She snuck a glance at my face and I motioned for her to look at the view. Her breath caught in her throat.

"It's beautiful!" She breathed in amazement.

You could see the sun setting in the background, lighting the sky in a variety of oranges, pinks, yellows, purples, and blues. Fairies and fireflies flitted among the foliage, making the ground below sparkle. The sun sank steadily on the horizon and the Phoenix sang their goodnights. As it grew darker, intricate constellations lit up the firmament, giving off angel like light.

"What's your name?" I asked.

"Hannah," she replied absentmindedly. A comfortable silence engulfed us.

"Why are you being so nice to me?" Hannah blurted out. I gave her a questioning look.

"I mean, I just threatened you and you take me to your wonderful home. I should be dead for disrespecting you." She said, bowing her head.
