The Sacrifice

There was one in each generation.Destined to leave their home, their coven, their way of life. To fulfill the age-old treaty with the demons.A Sacrifice.We spoke of their fates in hushed whispers around open fires like ghost stories, conjuring tales, each more horrifying than the last.I never thought I would become her.The Sacrifice.Ripped from everything I had known, thrown into a dark and uncertain world, my life in the hands of its purest evil.Nothing could have prepared me for the truth.Or the growing warmth I felt toward one of my captors.But the questions remained:What did they want from me?What would happen to me once they took it?What price was I willing to pay?And what would I be willing to sacrifice to hold onto a love I never saw coming?
