Lady of the Shadows

My name is Althea, and I am an Immortal living among Mortals. Momma taught me to blend in; appear human. The more human we tried to be, the less stress we had from the Hunters. We avoided unwanted attention by following a strict set of personal rules. Unfortunately, Momma had been gone for several years now. She just never came home one night; I was thirteen years old when it happened. Soon, I would be breaking the most fundamental rule she had ever taught me; don’t ever do anything that will get you noticed.

I know being half Demon is not exactly a ringing endorsement on my behalf, but it does have its benefits, as well as its drawbacks. Being that I was also half Fairy might sound better, but it is not. Fey can be just as evil as any Demon; sometimes much worse. The time for running and hiding from those hunting me has ended, and the time to stand up and fight back has begun.
