*****
Taynor kept walking aimlessly in the woods since his teleporting powers no longer worked and he was stuck, he couldn't even find his way back to Leo's mansion so he decided to just keep moving. Somehow, he prayed Zenia summoned him again, that would at least save him from all the stress he was going through but she didn't.
He arrived at a market place that was so crowded and while walking in a daze, he mistakenly bumped into someone.
"Hey! You watch where you are going"the lady he bumped into barked.
He didn't snap out of his daze so he didn't even hear when she spoke and she was so pissed, she ran after him and held him by his garment.
"Hey, don't you hear?"she yelled but he didn't seem to still hear her and so she held his hand but impulsively removed her hand upon feeling how hot his body was.
"You are burning up"her words came out in whispers.
Taynor finally, snapped out of his daze and turned to the lady who stared at his hand as steam evaporated from the skin.
"Stay away from me!"was all he said in a husky deep voice before walking away. He could feel the stare of the lady as he walked further but after some minute it was gone. Since his teleporting could no longer work, he increased his pace a little and finally arrived at a small thwarted hut and he fell to the ground in pain immediately, letting out a loud groan as his eyes turned red, his body vibrated and claws grew out from his fingers. His hair was turning red and his face held two looks.
"Argh!"he suddenly heard a discreet scream that didn't go unoticed by him.
"Who's there?"he grunted "come out now!"
A lady stepped out from where she had hidden, her hand over her mouth as she stared in fright.
"You bumped into me earlier"she mumbled"your body burned, I'm sorry I followed you. Please spare me"she went on her knees immediately and began begging.
His beastly self, super sped to her and picked her from the floor by her neck before jamming her against the wall angrilly. "You wish to die, don't you?!" his coarse voice emitted so much power as he spoke and his claws pierced into her skin.
"I'm sorry"she cried in chocking plea.
"No, you have to die. You must die"he stated, then his eyes shone fully red and his hair fully red. A wild wind blew and slowly he began piercing his claws through her throat.
The lady coughed repeatedly, till she was almost out of breath. Her struggling feet on the air stopped moving and a tears slipped down her face. "Please let me live"she cried weakly.
He gazed deep into her eyes and as she cried, he suddenly thought of Zenia. He heard a shrill scream in his head, proceeded by a might wind that attacked and then his hand weakened, his grip around her neck lossened and she fell to the floor immediately, coughing and breathing hard but then, he aslo fell to the ground and before she could observe what was going on, he blacked out.
Hours later, he flickered his eyes open, only to meet with a lady possessing a very black silky hair, hovering atop his view. She stared at him intensely while fanning away the heat that emitted from him. Once he mustered enough strength, he pushed the lady off and leaned up on the wall of the small hut quickly looking at his fingers and he was relieved the claws were gone.

"Are you okay now?"he heard the lady ask and when he looked closely at her, it was the lady he'd bumped into and had almost killed.
"Don't you get scared?" He asked instead.
"You spared my life. I had to help you"she pouted "I'm Lilian"
"You should leave Lilian"he mumbled but instead she moved closer to him and sat.
"What are you?"she asked baiting her lashes naively "I mean, I've heard of demons, witches, wizards and lots more. Your type is rare. My mother is a witch. Come with me, she can help you?"she said all at once.
"I don't need help!" He retorted with a yell.
"Sorry"she shivered immediately" I didn't mean to...."
"I'm an angel"he cut her off "i grew up in Melissa but few days ago I appeared on earth. Now Lilian, I am dangerous. Stay away from me and don't even think about trailing me again" he added and then stood up.
"Wait, please"she stopped him, hurriedly standing up. "Do you know your way around. This is Larden. It's a very mysterious place"
"I will find my way"he stated and then walked away but she ran after him
"I'm a warrior. I fight in wars"she held his hand stopping him again
He suddenly grabbed her by the neck and the next he jammed her to the wall behind her. "I didn't ask. You do not want to get involved with me Lilain"his golden eyes held no emotion

"At least meet my Mum"She coughed out stubbornly.
He sighed before releasing her neck reluctantly "you are brave huh?" he smirked
She held her neck coughing hard "You are powerful"her retort.
"Lilian..."
"Just meet her first. She's really nice. Plus she can help you"
He sighed because it seemed her persistence might really get him somewhere. If her mother could really help him, that would be nice but Leo was in trouble and he needed to save him.
"Lead the way"he finally said.
She smiled happily before saying, "follow me" and he reluctantly did.
They walked in the woods for couple of hours and finally they got to a cottage. A river flowed beside it and it was the only house in sight.
Taynor wasn't sure if he had to trust the lady but she looked genuinely innocent.
"Come in"her words broke into his thought and slowly he followed her into the cottage.
A woman sat on a dusty couch in the parlour, while reading a book and when she noticed her daughter was back, her eyes lit up and she raised her head immediately ready to welcome her.
"Lilian"she smiled. "Back from war?"
It was then Taynor realised she was wearing and amour and her hair was packed in a messy pony tail with endings, plaited in French braids.
Lilian ran to her and hugged her"it was not so nice staying away from home for many days"she laughed enthusiastically. "I brought someone"she whispered " He's cute and his eyes are made from hell fire mum"she laughed "Too golden"
Her mum finally raised her head to see who her daughter described and seemed to had been struck by his look, gasped upon realising it was Taynor she actually brought.
"Taynor?"she muttered.
"You know him?"Lilian looked at her quizzically.
"I....."
"Joan"Taynor beat her to her words as his eyes dimmed but his words came out as a coo.
"You know her too?"Lilian turned to him in surprise. "What's going on mum?"
"Lilian, this is Taynor. My sisters son"Joan explained.
"Isn't he the one you've been looking for?"Lilian gasped and she nodded.
"Tsk"he clicked his tongue "I find this introduction quite brave and strange"
"At least I did well bringing you here"Lilian smiled.
"Hey Lilian don't be cheeky"Joan quickly scolded and then she turned to Taynor" come, please have a seat. You have so much you need to tell me."she muttered.

Later that night, as Taynor laid on the bed he'd been given to stay, he was restless because he had so much on his mind. The fact that he wanted to become human and had no plan, the fact Tania was after him plus also, the strange changes his body manifested were all worries for him. Probably, leo was still under Tania's manipulation and his powers seemed to fail him. So much had happened to him since his seventeenth birthday. He didn't want anything to do with finding his mother but it seemed he had already gotten invovled with that.
He hated the fact he was born an immortal, that he had to live his life on a repeat for infinity. Nothing new, nothing old by the time he must have reached a thousand years.
He was in a daze, he didn't know when Joan walked into the room.
"Awake?"her voice startled him and he turned to her direction hyperalert
"I can't sleep"he said
"Why? Thinking about what I said earlier?"
"You said my mother was an Angel right?"
"She was a dare Angel from the lineage of the royals until the demons took her."
"Why do you want to find her. If she was captured by the demons of course, she'd be dead by now"
"She's not dead"
"How did you know?"
"I'm a witch. I know"she smiled
"Look......"
"I know you do not want to find her Taynor. I know"she interrupted "I'm fine with that but you can help me"
"With what?"
"You see, you are an Angel Taynor. But a rare type. You are entering a new phase so you must learn to understand it. A strange power emits from you and it's very safe"she explained.
"I'm...."

"Confused"she cut him off.
