will go a lot faster with some team work,” Lada insisted, and sat down next to the suitcase.
“Nice, so how long have you been here Lada?”
“About two months now, turned seventeen in March. Don’t worry, the place isn’t that bad. At least we have sexy guys to keep us entertained,” she answered, handing over a pair of jeans.
I took the jeans and placed them in the closet. Sexy guys, yeah right. Then I remembered the two in the hall; they did look pretty yummy.
“So where are you from?” Nanini asked, pacing around the front of the bed.
“I’m from Toronto, it’s a pretty cool town,” I replied, taking clothes from Lada and placing them inside the closet
“And who are your parents?”
“My dad is Troian, a hellhound; and my mom is Freya, also a fae like you.”
“Wow. That will make you a hellhound, totally wicked.”
“Why would that be wicked?” I asked her, turning around to face her.
“Hellhounds are the strongest of the fallen, but also rare. I’m also one,” Lada said, looking at me with pride written all over her face.
“Have you transformed yet?” Nanini went on.
“If you mean transformed into a hellhound, no. But I shifted to somewhere, and that had my mom and dad throwing a hissy fit.”
“Then you are going to have to get a spark, to hit the transformation,” Lada continued.
“What do you mean a spark?”
“In the old days we would transform for the first time when we were near a demon; but now we are taken to a spirit fae called Maia. She uses her powers to trigger your hellhound inside. You will be able to transform into a hellhound. Afterwards, everything is pretty cool.”
“So this Maia is going to zap me with her powers, to turn me into a monster?”
“Basically, yeah.”
Oh just great, not only will I be a monster, but someone had to zap me into one.
“Do you know what I would look like?” I asked Lada, worried over the aftereffect this was going to have. I don’t want to look like a bull or something.
“I can do more than that,” she said smiling. Getting up she walked over to an open spot near the window. When she turned around she wasn’t a girl anymore. She was two feet taller, and was covered in what look like fur. Her brown eyes were now yellow with black pupils. On her forehead were two small horns sticking out. But it was the two black bat-like wings lifting up behind her that did it for me. Oh my freaking soul! I am going to turn into a huge freaking bat! My legs turned into jelly and I planted my butt on the bed.
“It’s not that bad, Kas. We can do a lot cool stuff with our fallen bodies. Our wings grow stronger as we develop our fallen nature. We are able to use them to fly and fight. We are just as fast as Harpies, even better,” she told me in a slightly deeper voice, before she transformed back to normal. I didn’t see the okay part in this, definitely not the cool part. I don’t even know what a freaking Harpy is.
“Come on Kas, think positive about this. I know it’s shocking the first time, but at least you don’t turn pink all over,” Nanini said, patting me on the shoulder.
“You turn pink?” I asked her, remembering the girl drifting around in her room earlier.
“Yeah, it’s a fae thing. We turn into almost any color on the planet. Even my freaking hair goes pink, so not cool.”
“Well at least you still look human, and not like a huge bat.”
“Point taken.”
“How do your clothes stay on when you do that?” I asked, worried about my birthday suite making its appearance in front of other people.
“Don’t worry. A fae charms our clothing, making it possible to move and stretch. Your clothes are already charmed, must have been your mom,” Lada said, coming to sit next to me again.
“Well, well, well, what do we have here?” a girl with a thick, Russian sounding accent asked. Three girls were standing at the door. The one in front looked almost exactly like Kate Beckinsale. The one on her left like
