Chapter One:
Noelle.
I looked to the ground, only to see bloodshed, scattered items and barely unrecognizable human bodies.
'Who could've done this?'
I am a cop though wasn't assigned to investigate this particular scene. I have past memories of something like this. It's not like this has happened before, it's just that.. I keep feeling like I know who did it.
He's name Lucious; my childhood friend.
He's always been a weirdo and I suprisingly love him—at least use to.
"Lucious!" I hollered, walking over the devoured bodies on the ground. "Shit! It's like an apocalypse happened here. Lucious!"
I suddenly heared a squeaking sound and thought to move.
"Lucious!"
I kept on running. There was an alleyway in-between two walls and I swear I saw a dark figure crawl right through it.

Memory From The Past
"Hey, I'm Lucious." A boy smiled at me one day. He was dressed in ragged clothes but his grin was so priceless.
He was at the front of our mansion and my father, for some reason had adopted him. The first time I set my eyes on him, I knew it. I knew there was something wrong with him. He was so attractive.
'Who had purple eyes?' Lucious did.
I felt hard thumps in my chest and I knew I liked him. Though sometimes when he caught me staring at him, he'd simply remind me that he was now my brother.
***
Present day now.
"Lucious!" I screamed as I heared a man run through a dust bin but sounded seemingly stuck. I heared him gasp and a loud thud; giving he fell trying to escape.
'From what?'
"Noelle," A sudden feel of someone's warm breath pierced the back of my neck. It was him from behind. I knew it was no other person than Lucious. I slowly turned back knowing fully well that he's musk alone was able to steal my senses.
My chest rose as though dough on flour.
***
"Noelle!" Someone's voice suddenly called me, deviating me from my thoughts. (Dreams; or was it a nightmare?)
I just remembered I was in a prison cell. I was told Lucious was able to communicate with me only through dreams and I was meant to tell the authorities everything I saw.
Lucious is the devil. Lord Alpha Lucious. I dunno what got into Lucious to bare such titles… I mean, he was just a little kid when I met him.
Now, some people call him a demon.
"You are to report everything you saw this time around." Sounded my colleague, Stephen, who joined in holding me hostage. Stephen had a crush on me but I wasn't really interested. Now, he's acting all stiff and emotionless. He was blonde, fine and a great guy though.
I pushed against the prison bars aggressively. "I thought we were friends!" I bellowed at Stephen, holding onto the metal bars like I could break it.
I gnashed my teeth at him.
Stephen was nice, but right now I hated him because him and the rest didn't let me escape.
Stephen was dressed in his blue police uniform. The rubbed his nose, stressed. He said, "Noelle, you're making things worse."
"Stephen, I thought you loved me." I refused to let go of the bars like my life depended on it.
He looked disgruntled. "So now you use my feelings against me." He showed a bit of temper there. He then heaved a sigh. "Nothing's going on between us, you told me that. Anyways, Captain Kai ordered me to bring you once more to the interrogation room."
I huffed in anger, folding my arms.
"Don't make this harder than it already is." This was from Stephen. His eyes gleamed worry and care. He stood opposite me outside the cell.
