Prologue

Let me tell you about this girl…

She was sassy, she was fierce. She was a geek, and a hunter. She was funny, beautiful and loyal.

In my deeply messed-up life, she was one of the precious few things who brought a smile to my face and had me believe there might be some hope for me yet.

They say you choose your friends but not your family… Well in this case, it quickly became obvious I had gotten myself a little sister and it soon got to the point where I couldn't imagine my life without her…

Her name was Charlie and I loved her.

Me? I'm Dean, and I'm the one that got her killed… Might as well have done it myself…
