title: Inside Their Hearts
author: Baillie, Elizabeth
description: I had almost forgot who I was until I met him. Elijah stirred something within me. I had stared at him from afar. He was dangerous and seductive. Fantasies of him and me together played in my daydreams. I did my best to keep them there. Then one encounter with him changed my world. He took me back to where he and his lover Zak lived. The memories came alive in my head. They wouldn't leave and I suddenly knew that Elijah and I had a past. He had become one of Hades boys and I was not. I was left with the blood lust inside me-a vampire. He was a demon. But our lives were spent together oh so long ago. We were to be married. How could that be? I had to find out and the only one who held answers was a captive witch who was held by Hades. And now here I am, going against my lover's wishes and have made a deal with her to get us out of Hades world. Elijah will kill me if he finds out. Betrayal is something he cannot tolerate. But I have no choice. If I want peace for Elijah and me, then I have to do this. May the heavens above have mercy on me.
