Chapter 1

Annoyed and tired blue eyes look around his surrounds as he walked through the alley. It's been weeks and he knows a pair of eyes having watching down at him, stalking his movements every time he's going or coming home from school. It was getting one his nerves and he has a feeling the stalker isn't human.

Of course, Roxas Mikage isn't really a human as well. He has known that since his training started with his parents.

He's a shapeshifter. He came from a long line of shapeshifters and it's easy as breathing for him. Of course, after a while, he would inherit some animal instincts that can be a good and bad thing but they still have good uses. Like knowing he's still being followed.

His mother has warned him before about having enemies. Especially demons wanting the power to shapeshift at will. They can only cast illusions, and they don't transform naturally like he does. Take werewolves for example, they could only transform under the full moon only- Roxas could do that whenever he wants and whatever he wants to be. Only the youngest of the Mikage have the ability to transform and Roxas have to be the unlucky child to be the chosen one. Demons who would want his power would have to come and devour him completely to take his power away. The thought of him being eaten alive made him immediately accept the training in the first place(not to mention, his mother went on with the gorey details).

He finally made it back home and entered the quiet and empty house. His family was out for vacation leaving Roxas with some cash for grocery, enough to last him three weeks. Of course, the first night of loneliness was also the night when he first sensed the stalker watching him. It was annoying consider he had to hold a baseball bat close tight and stared at the window all night. As days went by, he decided to sleep through classes, go hang out with friends, go home, do homework, eat, shower, transform into a Germen Shepherd and guard the window till dawn. Needless to say, he became a very crabby blonde after the two weeks have flown by.

Roxas let out a loud yawn, his body yearns for a proper night of sleep but logically, and it's too dangerous with that stalker out there.

Maybe could sleep for an hour and then guard for the rest of the night. He should do that considering he has very dark bags under his eyes. He should rest before the bags become permanent.

Accepting that was a good idea, he fell onto the couch the moment he made it home and drifted to a deep slumber.

Too bad for him, Roxas slept for more than an hour.

Intense and amused blue eyes stare at blonde hungrily, licking his lips. At last the blonde fell asleep. It was about time! He was wondering when would the shape shifter have to nap. He was waiting for so long for this opportunity.

"I know that look," a teasing voice called out. A girl with dark red hair and matching blue eyes appearing next to him with a smirk on her face. "You naughty, naughty demon. You shouldn't play with your meal like this. You tired out the poor thing."

"I know that, Kairi," Sora pouted playfully. Kairi is a cat demon that was left for dead by her tribe years ago until Sora saved her from the certain death. Since then, they've been the best of friends. "But I want the shapeshifter to be weak. The more resistance, the less messier my meal will be."

"Then you should better hurry," Kairi said. "The parents are coming home within a week."

"I know that Kai," Sora responded with a gleeful look on his face. "I was about to go until you show up." He could just imagine the horrific looks the boy's parents would have.

"My fault, eh?" Kairi chuckled. "Well, excuse me for the interruption. Have fun with your meal tonight. Don't overdo it or you'll get blood on the ceiling just like last time."

Sora waved it off as Kairi disappeared from sight and he turned to a mist of shadows to enter through the window and materialize next to the sleeping boy. He smirked at the boy, looking so innocent and peaceful when he sleeps. Such a pity for a life like his has to come to an end but Sora wants the boy's powers and only that. He carefully lifted the boy's head up and tilted it to the side for easier access. The boy muttered something under his breath but didn't stir. Sora leaned closer for the neck and trails his tongue down the boy's flesh, tasting the tenderness.

So sweet…

Oh yes, he will enjoy every part of this boy.

He heard a groan and saw the eyes opening. The boy was waking up and Sora just got here. Without a second thought, Sora bite down on the boy's shoulder.

Roxas was half conscious when he felt arms holding him and a tongue leaving a trail of wetness. He immediately felt his instincts screaming danger and opens his eyes. Then he felt fangs piercing his shoulder and it brought him wide-awake. Roxas felt pain surging through his shoulder and he screamed. From the corner of his eyes, he saw a guy drinking greedily for his blood and he instinctively reacted, his right arm changing to a tiger's claw and he brought it down to swipe the intruder. The intruder vanished into thin air and by that time, Roxas transformed into a giant feline, standing in all four, growling and looking for signs of that intruder.

His eyes adjusted to the darkness and limped towards the doorway. His left shoulder ached in pain and he had to get out of here fast. He stopped at the doorway when he saw the same intruder materializing in front of him.

"Who are you?" Roxas growled. Though his mouth didn't form those words. Mom did tell him demons could communicate with most animals.

"A demon," the intruder introduced, bowing down with formal respect. "A Shadow Demon to be exact."

"Nice to meet you," Roxas said with sarcasm. "Now get the hell out of my house." He growled, preparing to pounce the demon if it decides to try anything funny.

"But I just got here," the demon half-whined. "Is this the way you treat your guests?"

"When they bite me, yes," Roxas said sourly. "Either you leave or I'll kill you myself."

The demon bared his fangs wolfishly, seeming excited with the challenge. "Have you ever killed a demon before?" Roxas hesitated. True, he was never in this position before, he half hoped he could get through life without getting attacked but he guessed wrong.

Somebody up there hates him.

"If I must," Roxas responded with determination. The demon's grin- if possible- grew wider.

"Then this will be fun," he took a step forward and Roxas attacked, pouncing at the demon. The demon vanished with the shadows and Roxas landed on the ground. He was getting annoyed of that move. Roxas saw front door just a yard away from him. It was his chance for freedom. Survival instincts agreed with him greatly.

He changed back to a human and ran towards the doorway. That's when the demon appeared and pulled Roxas close to him, backed up to the wall. Roxas panicked, not even five minutes and already he's in a very uncomfortable position and the demon looked gleefully like a five year-old who just received a giant lollipop.

"I thought you could do better than this," the demon purred, licking Roxas' shoulder wound. "Your blood tastes so good. It reminds me of chocolate." Roxas squirmed.

Think. Think. Think! Stupid brain, think!

"I think I'll take you tonight," the demon continued. "All of you." Roxas snapped, fear written all over his face. He decided to do what's best if he wants to see tomorrow and save his virginity. Swallowing his pride, he slammed his knee between the demon's legs causing the demon to howl in pain, slipping his grip from the shapeshifter, allowing the blonde to run out of the door, screaming like a madman.

"RAPIST! RAPIST AT THE MIKAGE RESIDENCE!" he shouted down the streets, later on disappearing in the middle of the night in the form of a snow owl.
