Do you believe in true love? Do you believe in love at first sight?
I do. I believe in all of these things more than anything. I hope so do you because this is what my story is all about. My faith in love is what got me into this mess. Let me introduce myself. My name is Clarice Marie Yuri's. I'm not exactly an average girl…. uhh…person…. thing? I'm seventeen…. sort of, Let's just say I've been seventeen a few times around the block. I've been in love once. They said it would be hard to tame someone like myself. But when that amazing boy walked through that door. I would have killed to have him be mine. We quickly became involved but there were problems with our relationship. I'm not…well I'm not exactly a…human. To be exact I am a Vixen. My parents are the King and Queen of our clan in Paris, France. My parents were very controlling and didn't understand the bond my lover and me shared. They said I was to marry a Prince that they had selected for me. Now I'm sure you don't know what that is so I'll tell you. They're creatures that have amazing powers that make men and women fall in love with us. We look like normal humans except for one thing…we have wings. My love used to tell me they looked like angel wings big white and beautiful…he would always say things like that to make me feel better about what I was and what he wasn't…. but after he left my wings turned black and cold just like my heart had become…

I sat at a café in downtown Paris. If my parents only knew I had strayed to the human side of town I would never be let out again. They never let me have any fun. They believe "A princess should always be proper and never mingle with the commoners" Believe me the commoners were more like family then my own. I was sitting on a couch with my long wavy brown hair to the side. I was wearing a corset and a skirt. Definatly something a princess shouldn't be wearing. Which I enjoyed because it made me feel less weird. I had on a very large trench coat, which I could never take off on this side of town. If my wings were to show my family and I would be exposed to the rest of the world. It started to rain outside which made me smile at all the people running around outside looking for cover. I never mind the rain it always washes away the bad things and leaves the good. A few people ran inside the café to warm them up. It was the middle of February and it was a little chilly today. I couldn't see anyone outside anymore from where I was seated so I just sat and sipped my hot chocolate with whip cream and let myself sink into my own thoughts for a while. The door opened suddenly which made me jump up. With about every other girl in the café. A boy walked in…. more like strutted in with all of his beauty. He was tall and muscular with blondish brown hair, pale skin, and the most beautiful green eyes I had ever seen. He gave me a nod and walked towards the counter. I believe he saw me staring at his amazing features because I saw him smirk out of the side of his mouth.
"I'll have a hot coffee black please," He said to the women behind the counter.
She only stared at him as she made his coffee burning her hand.
He seemed to have this effect on a lot of people.
He got his coffee and walked over and stood in front of the couch. We made eye contact for a few seconds before he asked.
"Do you care if I join you?"
I was in awe what this beautiful man had just asked me and I was at a loss of words. He took that as a no and started to shuffle away towards a table. Why did I choose now for my tounge to become tied? I couldn't pass up this chance!
"Wait! Please join me!" I practically yelled at him
I blushed when he turned abruptly around and walked back over to me. He sat gracefully on a cushion beside me and turned towards me.
"My name is Edward," He said pushing forward his hand.
"I am Clarice," I whispered giving him my hand.
He kissed it once and said
"Pleasure to meet you"
"Oh no believe me the pleasure is all mine" I muttered under my breath.
