the forst of hell by kayla hillard (book recommendations website .TXT) 📖

I’m in the corner scribbling this down as fast as I can. “They” don’t know I have a book let alone know how to Wright anything more than my name. But someone has to know. Get it out there and maybe spare others the pain we went through. It all started when my mom and dad died in an innocent enough fire. That night the only family I had died right before my eyes. Alone cold and scared I ran down the street. I didn’t care where I was going I just had to get away from there, away from the ash and fire, away from the life I lost. A few times I tripped over my dress but I picked myself up and kept going. When I stopped and looked around I had no idea where I was. All around me there was fog and darkness. Being only 14 at the time I was extremely scared and didn’t know what to do. I fell to the ground in defeat and cried. After a while I hear a noise. I looked up and there was a beautiful boy standing looking at me. His eyes where the most amazing things I had ever seen they sparkled like diamonds and where a pale shade of gray. “Are you ok?” he asked his voice flowing like a melody. I was too shocked to speak and just stared at him my mouth gaping. I must’ve looked pretty funny because he laughed. “My name is Damion what’s yours?” I meant to say Lilly but it came out like “meep…” he started to say something but I never heard what he was going to say because all of a sudden we heard a loud bellow from over in what I think was a forest and I turned to see what it was. "Oh no not them!" I couldn't see anything but I guess Damion could. "We have got to go! Now!" he said as he helped me up."Why?" I started to say but Damion cut me off. "No don’t speak they will hear you!" I wanted to ask him why and why he could still talk and I couldn't. Damion started to pull me along and soon we were running. I tripped on my dress and my ankle. It hurt so much I couldn't walk. "Come on! Hurry up they'll catch you!" Damion yelled at me. "For God’s sake Damion I can’t even walk! Why won't you tell me what's going on!" "Lily, I'll explain everything if we get you out of here...” "WAIT! How do you know my name! I never told you my name! What the hell is going on!?" he looked like he had just told me something he shouldn’t have. "I… Um … Err” stuttering now how wonderful. "Ello Damion, watch yah doing on are territory! Thought you would have learned from the last time!" while we were talking two people came out from the shadows. “And stealing are food too shame. We thought you didn’t eat like us! Ooh she’s alone too what a treat…” a man and a woman to be exact. “Omg what’s going on!” I yelled. The girl was really beautiful but something was just wrong. “Hmmm No wonder Damion tried to take her Alexi, she’s not human… Not anymore.” “I’m scared Damion. What do they mean I’m not human anymore?” I whispered to Damion. “Shh. Come on ill get you out of here… they can’t hear me because I’m talking in your head. But they can still hear you so that’s why you need to be quiet.” Mama had told me about people who could do that. She said if anything happened to her and dad one of the talkers would come and take me away to a safer place. But really I think it was too late for that. “Why don’t you pick on someone who actually wants to die?!” “Why Damion, she did want to… that is until you showed up!” now everything just started to fall into place. It all reminded me of the story dad use to tell me when I was little. About a girl named Sam. How one day a fire killed her family and she ran away. She ran to the forest of hell. Where she cried, begging to die so she could be with her family. How “they” showed up and said they could help her and they where her friends. They happened to be a man and a woman. Their names where Alexi and Derik. And how they looked like angels. So she followed them. They took her to a castle. “They” tricked her and locked her away in a cage. They fed on her soul until she was almost dead then they made her suffer. I know this story is strange but it’s no fairy tale it’s a story about what lurks in those woods. “They” as Alexi and Derik are called are soul eaters they pray on those who wish to die or wonder into the woods… mostly referred to as the forest of hell. Only a few can find it. Ones who have had a fire kill their family and only a werewolf can save you from it. Now they have us cornerd…
