ok i sorta used names and ideas out of other books i've read so...i'm still adding parts her and there so thanks for reading!


Long ago about the 1600’s there was a desperate mother with a child of 1 month. The townspeople feared the mother for the strange powers she possessed and were out to get her. They feared her also because of her beauty, with in which none could compare, and the way she seemed never to age They already got her husband-to-be and father of the child they called Frost. They were peaceful people but the townspeople feared what they did not understand. As the mother ran she hid her baby in the brush hoping the best for her child. That was the last time they’d be together......
Frost was found and raised by a loving, or so she thought, man named Hunter Redfern. He seemed to understand that Frost was different from most and needed someone different to care for her. He also possessed strange powers but never let any “HuMaN” know of this. That was about 400 years ago. Times have since changed and so have the surroundings. People have come and gone but Frost and her protector Hunter Redfern still remain with the others of “their” kind. I suppose you’re wondering who “ThEy” are. They are the few left from the 1600’s that didn’t get killed. They are Shapeshifters, Witches, and Vampires. They all acted very graceful but looked like ordinary humans with beauty beyond compare. they called themselves the nightpeople. Like Humans they had rules..
1- Never tell a human they exist
2-Never love one of a different kind (witches to witches, shapeshifters to shapeshifters, vampires to vampiers) and
3-Never kill another nightperson
Follow those rules and you’ll be fine. If not, Death to the rule breaker.
Hunter Redfern is a very important person to the nightpeople. He was the 1st “different” being a vampire actually. He normally dismisses other nightpeople but Frost was special; she was a cross between a shapeshifter and a vampire, the first known and left to live her life seeing it was against rules. Hunter had wanted to call her his own and never told her of her parents nor did he tell anyone else but one Gabriel his companion.
Frost grew up to look just like her mother if not more beautiful. She had long hair the color of Coal, straight and shiny, cat-like fire green eyes and soft pink lips against a creamy pale complexion. She was very slim, yet muscular, so to speak yet she still had a shape to her body. She had the look and innocence of a 17-year-old girl and it would stay that way for the half vampire made her immortal and forever young. She always respected Hunter and he adored her so much.
It was a special day to Hunter Redfern. The day he found Frost, which she knows at as her birthday. Frost came in the room after cleaning up a bit.
“Come here Frost,” Hunter said, “I have something I wish to give you.”
Gabriel was in the room too and decided to speak up, “It’s in your best interest to see what he wants Frost!” he said with a giggle because he could see in Frost’s eyes she was excited.
“Now sit down here and close your eyes tight!” you could tell by his tone that Hunter was excited too.
“OK OK already, OK eyes shut tight,” Frost said but she was of course peeking a little bit.
Gabriel handed Hunter a little box that was behind his back. Hunter opened the box carefully and pulled out a necklace. One of silver with a little heart shaped locket on it. He unclasped it and put in on her.
“OK you can open now,” Hunter had Gabriel hold a mirror so Frost could see
“Oh I love it,” Frost said as she inspected her new necklace. she opened it up and saw a picture of a panther with green eyes ablaze. That Panther was her. She can only take the form of the black panther as is the same with all other shapeshifters they can only take one form.
She thanked him once more then looked at Gabriel. Gabriel was about her age a few years older but looked 17 years old and also untouched by 300 some years of aging as she herself did including Hunter. She used to be disgusted by Hunter and Gabriel for the simple fact they’d go out every night and “feed” on people but not to the point of death they said. They couldn’t help it was the only way they would survive, besides other foods of course. She always thought of Gabriel as a rather cute guy; someone to always talk to and who would be there. At times she began to think she actually loved him. But thought again and told herself, “I couldn’t, he is too much like a brother and besides he doesn’t like you!” this same argument was running through her head as she stared at the boy’s sandy brown messy hair, tall, muscular body, slim wiast, and then she met those blue, bewitching eyes of Gabriel as stared back and they burned into her soul till he turned his head. She then turned a rosy shade of pink and ran upstairs to call her friend Jasper.
“Where are you off to so fast?” Hunter wanted to know.
“I’m going to my room to call Jasper and tell her of my gift,” she called down behind her.
Jasper was a friend since as far back as she knew. She was a shapeshifter her second form being a hawk. She was also a slender girl with longer dark brown hair and tan skin, with dark brown eyes.
“Hello?” Jasper said as she spoke into the phone.
“Hey,” Frost replied.
“Hey Frost what’s up girl?”
“Nothing much, I got a silver necklace and a heart locket for my birthday though.”
“Wow sounds kind of expensive”
“Yeah I think it was but anyways I’m doing it again!” Frost said in what sound like I sigh.
“Doing what Frost?” Jasper was puzzled.
“Thinking about Gabriel! I can’t stop it anymore he’s just always there and that doesn’t make it any easier!”
“Hummmm....sounds like you in a jam maybe you should stop doubting the thought I mean it’s only crossed your mind about a thousand times for the last 200 years or so! Maybe you should go for him.”
“Yeah maybe but I dunno.....,” Frost was utterly confused.
“Well I think you should! Hey Frost I have to go, OK? Talk to you later?”
“Yeah OK. See ya!” Frost hung up the phone slowly even more confused now then before
Gabriel was downstairs sitting in a chair looking like he was in a trance. had always liked Frost, but Hunter gave him strict orders to stay away from his precious girl. For when he found her he sensed she would destroy him. So he took her under wing to make sure she never turn against him. For no one would bite the hand that feeds them. Gabriel also thought it wrong to not tell Frost about her real parents. She’s always been told she has vampire power but no “thirst” and can shapeshift because she’s special. She has never had a clue that she was born of 2 nightpeople that broke rule 3. Seeing as she was half vampire, Gabriel thought, it wouldn’t be breaking any rules to love her, but he soon pushed that thought out of his head when he heard someone walk in. It was the tall, square-shouldered, red headed, brown eyed Hunter Redfren with his natural evil looking grin on his face that looked of a 20 year old. Gabriel came to dislike Hunter yet still stayed for fear what he’s do to him of Frost if he wasn’t around.
“Gabriel what are you doing in the dark,” hunter demanded
Gabriel hadn’t noticed but as he was thinking it had fallen dark unlike belief vampires don’t sleep in coffins, crosses don’t hurt them, and the daylight doesn’t bother them either.
“I was just thinking,” Gabriel said.
“And just what were you thinking about?”
“How hungry I am,” He replied convincingly so Hunter wouldn’t ask anymore questions.
“Then let’s go.”
Hunter walked for the door followed by Gabriel. ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~
The next morning Frost was the first up; she got dressed and went downstairs to discover Gabriel down there.
“Where’s Father?”
“Out,” Gabriel answered gloomily.
Frost was excited yet scared to talk to Gabriel alone; they rarely were alone, “What’s wrong?”
“Nothing!” he said dryly.
“I know you,” she said as she sat across from him in the living room, “you’re not telling me something!”
He just meet her gaze and held it then walked away into the kitchen.
Frost felt utterly stupid.
In the other room Gabriel was leaning on the counter talking to himself repeating, “I’ve got to tell her, but how?” over and over again.
Frost walked in the room, “Tell me what?”
Gabriel jumped and his defenses were down so were Frosts. What Frost didn’t know that Gabriel could read minds that was on of his “gifts” as a vampire. He never tried to read her mind, thoughts, or feelings but at that moment he did by mistake and saw himself in her eyes. A person she loved but denied it. He was in shock all he could do was stand there and stare.
“Hello snap out of it!” Frost shouted way waving her hands in his face.
“I never knew,” was all Gabriel was able to spit out in a soft whisper.
“Knew what? What are you talking about? What did you want to tell me?” Frost felt almost cold.
Gabriel thought for a min and decided Hunter wasn’t going to be home for awhile so he could tell her about her parents, then maybe that he read her mind if she took the parent thing OK. he pulled out a chair, “Sit down.”
Frost obeyed but was still puzzled and scared by the look on his face.
“Just remember,” he started, “you wanted to know and you’re not going to like it!”
She nodded.
“OK well first off Hunter Redfern is not your father. Your parents were Daine a shapeshifter, and Numair a vampire.”
Frost turned pale and started rambling, “Where are they now then? they broke law 3! How come I’m not dead!” she was screaming now
Gabriel calmed her down, “I’m getting there just, listen OK?”
“OK,” the now quiet Frost said.
“Well, they lived in NY in the 1600’s but ran in the night here to LA because they found out you were coming and feared for you knowing they were breaking nightpeople law. They were peaceful people, didn’t cause anybody trouble, and had you safely for a month anyways.”, he sighed and continued, “That is until Hunter found them. Normally no one would care if you broke rule three, but your father and Hunter were long time enemies. Your father thought the only pure evil was Hunter; he was probably right. Hunter told the townspeople that they were strange and the thing back then was witch burning. So he scared the town into believing Numair was a witch. He was a very persuasive man, he knew they only way to kill a Vampire is with fire. The townspeople went crazy and set fire to the house late at night. Your mother got out with you but not your father....”
Frost looked sickly at this point, “Go on!”
“Your mother ran on with you townspeople on her heels and Hunter watched her hide you in the brush, then she ran on and killed herself by jumping off an old bridge. Seeing Witches and Shapeshifters age and die like humans she didn’t make it. Hunter went over to you intending to kill you but his power told him you’d be strong and beautiful. And that you were also a threat to him but he couldn’t kill you knowing you had so much potential, so he took you in his care telling you your mother died during birth and he was your father. He thought that way you wouldn’t be a threat to him too. He was going to make you a killing machine but it never worked out that way. He never told anyone but me the real story trusting me I wouldn’t tell. I’m sorry Frost I didn’t want to tell you but. If he finds out I told you he’ll kill me.”
“I won’t tell but he has to be stopped. Who did he find to kill for him instead?” almost in tears Frost could still keep a straight tone.
Gabriel was silent for a moment then spoke again, “Me,” he said so softly.
Frost was shocked, “But why?” she pleaded
“I had no choice he knows where my family is and will kill them if I don’t obey,” he cried out in desperation.
“Oh I didn’t know I’m so sorry.” Frost was a rush of emotion.
“There’s something about me you should know.”
“What else is there to know!” she said sarcastically.
“Much more,” He got on his knees so he could see her face and her reaction, “ Well see every vampire has a different “gift” mine is I can read minds and well what hunter has in plan for you soon is not good he still sees you as a threat that he needs to be rid of now.”
“ME!” she squealed
“Yes you , you don’t understand your potential. I’ve read your mind, thoughts, and feelings when you walked in here earlier I didn’t mean to but well I can even see your potential to be dangerous I saw a few other things too”
Frost turned red on sight and looked down, “Like what?” she almost sounded alarmed.
“Stuff I shouldn’t have been snooping in but I did by mistake and well don’t feel too bad the feelings mutual just I don’t deny it I have to ignore it Hunter has always told me to stay away from you,” Gabriel seemed relieved of a burden.
Frost was amazed, “You do? But why?”
Before he could answer Hunter walked in the room and seeing Gabriel talking to Frost alarmed him, “What do you think you’re doing!” he shouted. He grabbed the once again shocked Gabriel by the shoulder and pulled him up sharply, “I told you NEVER to get close to her!”
Frost in alarm started to change into the black panther she’s known for. when she loses her temper she automatically changes. The sight of her change was powerful more powerful at the moment it was the first time Gabriel ever witnessed it and then he realized she really was very dangerous. Her legs changed the shape of a cat’s hind legs and she dropped down to all 4’s. Then the tail showed up out of nowhere almost. all was changed but her head she had ears of a panther then her nose became a snout with whiskers. and her eyes her emerald eyes seemed to stay fixed on Hunter. when done with the shape shift she looked of a very powerful cat that would kill anything yet she looked so innocent still. She gave out one long roar and Hunter let go on Gabriel and looked at her.
“So it’s come to this now after 400 years I should have killed you when I had the chance.”
With that he sent a mental blow to her it knocked her down but she was not out! she pounced on him holding him down gripping her claws into him she changed just her head so she could speak.
“WHY!” she demanded, “WHY!”
“They broke the law,” he said laughing
“And so did you by telling the people about them!” she screamed.
As this was going on Gabriel was setting the house on fire aware that he could get killed by the flames too
“Yes but no one questions me,” Hunter replied still laughing as he sent another mental blow but it was blocked by Gabriel. Hunter looked at him sharply.
“Boy when this is over you die!”
“Not if you’re dead first,” Gabriel had built up his strength and sent a strong mental blow toward Hunter that knocked him unconscious.
“Frost come on we have to go!” Gabriel yelled over the noise of the flames.
Frost was now fully in panther form she looked wild and dangerous with her eyes fixed on her prey.
“Please snap out of it Frost! I can’t lose you I won’t lose you! Not now!” Gabriel pleaded, “If you don’t leave I don’t either.”
Frost looked up at him though her green panther eyes and with a powerful leap jumped off Hunter and went for the back door looking behind her to make sure Gabriel was there.
After they were outside all they could do was watch the blazing house in amazement. Gabriel was finally free of him and Frost now knew the truth of her parents.
After taking human form again Frost muttered to herself, “You broke the law, and I did question you so now you die. Just like my real father.”
At that moment Hunter came out of the building brown eyes filled with hate fixed on them. He was ablaze and coming right for them. Fear coiled in both Gabriel and Frost. Just then a board for the roof came down upon him and pierced him though killing him instantly. For being the first vampire had its faults being he could be killed more then one way but no one knew how for no one dare challenged Hunter Redfern till now that is. Now they know, wood though the chest.
Frost turned from the sight in horror and began to cry but Gabriel was there to hold her, “It’s alright now. It’s over. Things will be OK now. We have each other now and nothing, no person nor thing, could bring us apart now!” he said comforting her.
Frost cried more but not so much for fear anymore but for joy. For knowing she was loved by someone warmed her heart.
They both walked away from the burning house and began their travels to a safer place together and forever knowing the truth about their love for each other that would never die.
