Aphrodite's POV

I tensed as Zoey stood up to answer the door; I held my breath as Kayla walked in. She looked around the room and let her eyes rest upon Zoey who had come back over by me after opening the door and I.

"I wanted to say I am sorry for stirring up the moods even more than normal, I know you guys are going through a rough time and I do not want to make things worse." Her eyes were sincere but I saw past that and the facade in her voice.

"Well how would you know?" I asked snidely.

"That is my information not yours." She said in a flat tone. Zoey then decided it was time to step in.

"Okay you guys, enough fighting, Kayla apologized and we should be grateful. Now stop bickering!"

She looked at me, she was mad but I knew it would not last long.

I lowered my gaze from hers and said, "Fine."

Kayla of course said nothing and walked out of the room.

Kayla and I have managed to get along for the last couple months with out trying to kill each other. I knew now that she was on our side and I have backed off when she wanted to see Zoey alone, I knew Zoey would never hurt me.

Maybe I was wrong about her?

Things have begun to get really tense the Raven Mockers have come constantly and Shekinah the high priestess was going to come here soon and inspect the other murders of the professors in the school.

The whole group was in the dinning hall when Kayla walked in and asked to talk to Zoey.

Kayla's POV

As Zoey and I walked by the east wall of the school it looked as if the shadows were moving. I focused all of my attention on her.

" I am so glad that you and Aphrodite are finally beginning to try and get a long."

"Yeah, I mean I like you but I am not willing to hurt you, so I just decided to back off, if it's mean to be it will happen on it's own" I said wistfully.

Warm air flooded around us, I could easily smell the blood it was tainted with, human. We both turned in unison to notice that we were both facing Erik, I swallowed hard.

He took a step forward and I took a step back, Zoey stood where she was. I looked into his beaming red eyes. He smiled a predatory smile; fangs fully extended and tinged red from the blood. I did not want to know which poor being it had come from.

"So my plans have changed." He said as he looked from me to Zoey and back to me.

I knew what he meant. Zoey told me all of it a few weeks ago when all the weirdness started happening and I began questioning until I received proper answers.

Zoey was surrounded in a mist that was an array of colors, the colors of the elements.

"Back off Erik!" Zoey yelled, I knew she was about to loose it.

He laughed quietly then spoke again.

"Why Zoey? Why do you make things so difficult, all you have to do is give me the girl and I will leave you alone. If you know what's best you will do just that."

I gasped. He walked over to me and stood in front of me.

"Erik you do it and I kill you!" she screamed, her face showing how angry she was.

I looked down at my feet to afraid to see the hungry look glowing in his now red eyes. He put a hand on my shoulder and a burning pain shot through my entire body. I screeched in pain in a tone I never thought was possible for me.

A few moments later I felt something soft flow around me as his grip eased and he dropped to the ground, my ears were ringing, as I was set to the floor and I blacked out.

When I woke up, I was back in my dorm and Zoey was beside me, her gaze calm. I tried to speak but nothing came out. My throat burned and I flinched by the sudden pain.

"She needs blood." I recognized Aphrodites' voice.

I saw Aphrodite pull out something shiney.

"No, Aphrodite I will give her my blood." Zoey said.

"Human blood is stronger, better for her." She said as she cut open her wrist and walked to my bedside and let the blood drip into my mouth. I wanted to protest until it hit my taste buds and sent my senses flying.

I let myself drink from her, my throat began feeling better. I felt an odd tingle. But I could not stop.

Finally Zoey rushed over from Aphrodites' bed and pulled us apart.

I still could not speak, but I felt much better. I turned my head to see a look of desperation in Aphrodites eyes as she managed one word in unison with Zoey. Which I had no clue what they meant.

"Imprint."
