Marissa I stopped short. Why should I ask? I already know that he isn't human. And like every other demon he must have gotten it from his family. What I don't seem to understand is the reason why he chose to tell and show me all these. Did he have a plan beforehand? Was he planning to use me for some unknown purpose later? Maybe to test me? Maybe to lure the human race away from him? Or maybe...maybe there is something else he wants to accomplish… "I'm here because you're special, Marissa," he answered for me, interrupting my thoughts. I looked up into his dark gray eyes. They stared back at me with no emotion, which is unusual for the man I thought was monstrous. The only emotion I saw was amusement. My heart sank. He knows. He knows all my secrets. He can tell that I'm scared.
