I could never love someone like you.

Malachi strolled into the garage with a smile, "Guess what, Lilith?"

"What, big brother?" Her blue eyes raced across his evil expression, she'd felt empty ever since she had left Sweet Pea's. Her guilt- her lies drowning her.

"We're going racing today. Got Serpent territory on the table." Malachi began digging around his sisters personal space.

"I think I'll sit it out, Kai." Her stomach bubbled in anxiety, the thought of going and having her friends- Sweet Pea see her.

"Not an option, little sister. We're using your car, and I want you to drive." Malachi shot her a knowing look, he had noticed her soft spot for the Serpents. Had realized just how often she wasn't at home anymore.

"I don't want to go, Kai." Lilith insisted as Malachi finally found her leather jacket, buried deep within her make shift closet.

"You don't want to go or you don't want them to see you?" Lilith couldn't help but let the small expression of shock slip, Malachi smiling at the sight.

"I won't tell, little sister. But do remember you don't belong with them. You're a savage like the rest of us, he won't love you anymore once he knows." Her brother smiles at her in cruelty as he assumes her involvement had something to do with a boy.

"Shut up, Kai." Lilith couldn't help but stand from the hood of the car. Lessening the space between the two siblings with her fists clenched at her sides

"You see that? Ready to kill. It's our instinct, we don't care who's the target. The Serpents are weak, they'll abandon you the first time you loose control." Malachi doesn't see the tears growing in his sisters eyes.

"Put on your armor, we've got a race to win." Malachi holds the leather out to her.

It was a moment of hesitation before Lilith snatched the jacket from him and slipped it on over her tank top.

Lilith was shaking with nerves as they pulled up into the lot, bikes sat spread out across the space. Almost like a battlefield.

This was it

Lilith could feel it in her bones, this was the day that Sweet Pea would realize who she really was. She couldn't help but think that maybe he would care about her enough to listen. 

Lilith had shared so much personal details with him that she felt like maybe he would understand. Maybe Sweet Pea could still love her the way she loved him. Maybe he could love her the way he had promised her the other night- her Ghoulie side included.

Lilith had tried to stay back in the crowd and away from any Serpent eyes. Of course that was impossible though, she was Ghoulie royalty.

Head of the food chain, viewed as a threat to the enemies; only that she didn't want to be a threat. Lilith wanted to be with Sweet Pea.
