Let me begin by telling you who I am. My name is Isabella de'Medici, daughter of the house of Medici in Florence, but you may call me Bella. I am an artist and writer, and I have always been fascinated by night creatures: witches, vampires, shapeshifters. We had to go into hiding, for there are always vampire hunters in our mist.


I have always lived by the fact that I believe that my soul-mate is out there, waiting for me. I know he is, for my very soul cries out for his touch. Ever since I was a young girl I have dreamed of the man that is my destiny. There is no changing minds once it happens, no going back. I am the only woman for him, just as he is the only man for me. And nothing in this world will be able to keep us apart. Not even death.


I know that he is close, I know that this sounds odd, but it is almost like I can sense him near. But that is the amazing gift I was bestowed with, I can read minds at a moment's notice and sense your thoughts and emotions.


I wasn't like this when I came into the world, I was changed. My sister and I didn't ask to become what we are, but we are dealing with it, just like anything else that would come along. We can survive the sun, as long as we have the Talisman. And we can even go as far as eating human food, but it does nothing for us. Our nutrients all come from the blood we sustain.


No, I can sense a presence near. It is so close, it is quite scary if that word were even in my dictionary. I have learned to take care of myself, my sister is what makes me want to fight. We may have not had a choice in what we are, but we are making sure that the people we would ever turn would, and losing control to the blood lust is not an option.
