Chapter One
The rain poured heavily in central park that night. The sky was unnaturally dark. People rushed from here and there trying to make it to some sort of settler weather it be a nice warm apartment or the dryness of a building's over hang.
A young woman rushed through the trees of central park. Horns cry out into the darkness as the woman cross the busy New York streets. She makes her way across the street to mild looking apartment. She looks down in her arms to a screaming bundle. "Shhh...." She says softly. The young woman looks up and down the building then makes her way to inside. She walks down the narrow hallway until she comes upon a door. She stops. "This is the one." She looks down to her baby girl "these people will take good care of you, my sweet child" the babe looks up at its mother with big sparkling violet eyes. The woman almost breaks down in tears when she sees her daughters face. "I will always love you." She kisses the baby's forehead then places her in front of the door. She glances down one last time then turns and returns through the door she came in and heads back to central park.
The wind sways her back and forth as she searches for her entrance. "There" she says softly as she notes the change in the trees. The young woman slowly steppes through the passageway. She is whirled back to the place from whence she came. She stands in front of the mirror seeing the scene of central park, and also the building where she had left her daughter. Her eyes build with tears.
"Where is she Avarielle" woman's harsh voice came from behind her. Avarielle spun on her heels to face the woman.
"Some where, where you will never be able to touch her" She glared at the woman.
"I would not count on that" she paused and smiled "That child will be mine, and when she is there will be nothing you or anybody can do to stop me" she laughs. Grey smoke starts to build around Avarielle. Avarielle watches unable to stop her body from misting away from the spot she stood, to a full length mirror across the small dark room.
"Let me out of here" Avarielle yells as she looks at her prison. The woman stands there and laughs, an evil, hateful, but also and enjoyment filled laugh.
Alex and Lexi were sitting in there apartment cuddle together watching Gone with the Wind. Alex held his wife to him as she lays her head on his shoulder her leg tucked to the side of her on the couch. They had been married a little over two years now and loved each other very much. Pictures covered their modest apartment. Mostly of their wedding and their friends. There was a photo graph sitting on the book self of their friend's son second birthday party. Lexi attention now turns to that picture; she missed her friend, Virginia ever since she had moved to some far away land.
Alex and Lexi were the only two people who really knew where Virginia and Anthony Lewis, Virginia's father, had really went; to everyone else that have ever knew them they believe that they have one day disappeared never to be hard from again.
Virginia returns now again to visit her old friends, often time bring her husband, Wolf (who was in fact part wolf. That did take some time for Alex to wrap his mind around) and her son, Wolfe (now two years old).
Alex and Lexi had long for a child for a long, but unfortunately have not been blessed with one. Lexi longs to be a mother very much. She is an only child so she has never had anyone younger to look out for. She has always loved kids and it is apart of her being to be a mother. Alex also loves children and has the same feelings of longing to be a father. He had six brothers and sister growing up, all younger, and would very like to start to a big family of his own.
As they watching the movie they hear the sound of a baby crying in the hallway. After a long time of hearing the cries, and noting that the sound is coming from the same spot they decide to see where it was coming from. Alex opens the door, Lexi behind him. He peers his head out into the hallway only for a moment when he realizes the sound is coming from his doorstep.
"It's a baby." Lexi moves past him and pick the infant up. With in moments the child stops it wailing to look at the woman holding her.
"I know it's a baby, but what is it doing here?" Alex pushes his wife inside the apartment.
"She is precious" Lexi says as she looks at the child her heart already becoming attached.
"We have to call the police honey" Alex trying to be the sensible one.
"What is some one baby is looking for her, what if some one to wants hurt her and the person trying to protect this little girl has left her to use to try and keep safe." Lexi stared her husband in the eyes. Alex sighs and then goes to stand next to his wife.
"She is going to need something's, like a crib, food, clothing...."
"And a name" Lexi cuts him off happily.
"How about Amber?"
"Amber?" Lexi "it's very pretty"
"It means precious jewel." Alex looks at his wife, "you did call her precious"
Lexi nods then looks at the baby. "Amber it is"
