"Oh my God, what was that?"
My mother frown when I just arrived in the kitchen and walking past her to take the milk from the refrigerator.
I quickly take a look around to find something odd.
"What.. What is it?" I exclaim worriedly if she found something as evident from what happened last night in this kitchen, even though I saw everything already back as if an incident last night never happened.
My mother locks her gaze to my face and made me blinked confused.
"What?"
"Lift your hair" He demands which I confusedly follow her order and then she gasped when widened in shock.
"Mom?"
My voice sounds weak for seeing her reaction which scares me.
"You've got a tattoo on your NAPE!!" She shouted angrily and made me gasped.
"WHAT?!"
Quickly, I running to the bathroom and watch in horror when knowing that my mother was right.
I've got a freaking tattoo on my Nape!
Oh, God...
"Why you look shocked?" My mother look amused leaning on the door while watching me from there "I should be the one who shocked. when you decided to make that thing and without asking permission?!" I don't know what to say so I try to find a good reason in my head when I see her waiting for my answer.
"Um... I.. I thought you.. um.. you'll be mad if you know that I have it" I lied and hoping that she trusts me.
She sighed before nodding her head "I am mad"
Shit.
"But, it's done so what can I say?" She added and take a step closer to where I stand in front of a mirror and studying the tattoo which is a good start with a weird symbol around it "This like a Demon's symbol" I try to not gasped and just smiling to my mother who shrugged after she sees it for a minute.
"Sorry, mom" I whispered and she shook her head.
"I also young before and had this urge to doing bad things" She chuckled like remembering her self before and made me smile.
"But" She pointed her finger "Next time, you can speak to me if you want to do anything bad, okay?" She demand and I nodded quickly.
"Yes, Madam"
She laughed before left me alone in the bathroom.
My face turned immediately and went back to the mirror, looking at the symbol on my nape.
Is this His mark?
This is what the vampires speak about me having His mark.
But, why now?
Why it suddenly appear?
Reveal...
I closed my mouth quickly when remembering his word last night. This is why he said those reveal the word and the next word about don't need to hide it anymore.
That was about this mark.
But what will happen next to me?
And why I carry it?
"C'mon, Luna... You're going to be late since I'm not borrowing you my car today" My mother shouted from the kitchen and snap me from my crazy mind.
"Comin'" I reply to her before pull down my hair so no-one can see the mark on my nape and walk out.
I hope nothing happened today at school.
But, I guess God already leaving me since HE never listened to my prayers.
I frown when I see Nathan and his gang friends pointed on me when they saw me coming to my locker.
Laughing, one of them stood beside me when I pulling out my book from my locker.
"Hello, Luna," He said and touch my hair before sniff it which made me raise my brow "Your hair smells good, baby"
I shove his hand roughly "Don't touch me"
"Ooo... The freak shows her claw" Someone shouts before they all burst out laughing together.
I rolled my eyes and sighed "C'mon guys, bullying is so lame. I thought you guys way better than this" I fold my arms when I said it.
They all shut immediately and even though I am scared, I'm trying to hold my head high and try to show them that I am brave.
"C'mon, she's right" Nathan shout with his eyes staring on me "We're way better to talk to someone like her" Then he walks past me and shove me roughly from his way that made me fall on the ground.
"Look, she had a tattoo"
Gasped, I quickly raise my head and try to hide it with my hair but they all already see it and stay still in their place.
"What? never seen a tattoo before?" I defend myself before quickly gathered my stuff and running away from them.
My heart beating fast when I arrived in the empty room and slump down to calm myself.
I hope no one knows about this kind of symbol.
Let them just thought it some kind of tattoo and didn't know anything about the truth behind it.
My breath and heartbeat not pacing fast and it calmed down at the same time I heard the first bell ringing.
"That was a good tattoo, you've got there"
I gasped and quickly found a girl on my age standing on the door staring back at me.
Clearing my throat, I get up from the floor and nodded.
"Yeah, it is" I watch her.
She had beautiful caramel skin with black wavy hair and brown eyes. She wore a simple white tank top with a shirt and tight jeans with sneakers.
I never saw her before.
"But, I also never see the real Lucifer's mark on human before"
My eyes widened when I hear her.
"What?" I gasped.
She shrugged and pulled a chair before seat there.
"My grandmother was a gypsy and I can see things clearer than the other human since I was young and those tattoos, not an ordinary symbol" She explains and made me frown before sat beside her on the next chair.
"How do you get those marks?" She asked me and I see her for a second, thinking hard if I can trust her or not.
Sighed, I raise my head and lean back on the chair before looking at the sailing.
She didn't say anything while waiting for me to speak.
"He bit me when I was like 12 years old" Finally I told her and meet her eyes when I say it.
She nodded understand.
"How can you realize that this is not an ordinary symbol?" I raise my brow when I asked her.
"You've had those aurae and shield" She pointed my finger to around my body and made me take a look of myself.
Shield?
"A what?"
"That when I realize you're not an ordinary human" She finished and made me frown.
"What should I do to make it disappear?" I started desperately seeking her help.
This is the first time I had someone to talk about Him.
I am used to not talking about Him with no one because I don't know how they will react if I told them.
But now, this girl knows and can't see things that no-one can see.
Does it mean that she can help me get rid of this mark and Lucifer from my life?
'Of course not'
Gasped, I jump a little when I hear Lucifer's voice on my head and the girl eyeing me strangely like I am crazy.
"Sorry" I whispered and down my head.
She held her hand and smile.
"I'm Zafrina, but you can call me Zafi"
Slowly I shake her hand and nodded "I'm Luna, nice to meet you, Zafi"
"I notice He also talked with you in your head huh, Luna?" she stated lightly and again, shocked me.
Startled by how she could see everything, I frown while she just smiling innocently to me.
How does she know?
