Twice Dead

by CelestiasFaithful

Ellie Ravenwood thought she had left her Caster family far behind after disowning herself. Now her family has been called upon to take in her daughter Clara after falling on hard times in England. Clara is no one special. No powers- nothing. But as a man once said: "I've never met a person who wasn't important."

Prologue-

Nineteen moons,

Nineteen fears,

Each day- a new secret appears,

House the body of the girl twice-dead,

Soon she shall be nothing but the house's head,

She may be Mortal and powerless,

But other powers she shall posses,

Before the battle of demons starts,

Two men must swear across their hearts.

Nineteen moons,

Nineteen cries,

At the stroke of midnight- she first dies,

At the second death at the hands of hate,

Back when her story was less than great,

Metal and steel- flesh and bone,

Only one heart-crossed man can be called 'home'.
