Kallos (Kallos Series) - By Khelsey Jackson Page 0,43

should start walking,” Kallos says. Sean and Ian aren’t looking at her; they are looking behind her. She turns around and isn’t surprised to see her dad. “Hey Dad, we were just going to head home,” she gives him her innocent smile.

“Okay, Sweetie, I’ll see you guys at home.” He glares at the boys before he pats her shoulder. She hears the boys exhale loudly when he walks away. Kallos shakes her head at them. She knows they are waiting for her to ask them about everything. She slows down so they can talk longer.

“I want to know everything,” Kallos looks at them.

“Well, do you believe in demons?” Sean asks her.

“Demons? You mean like with horns, tails and from hell?” Sean and Ian start to laugh, and she gives them both the look to let them know she isn't happy with them laughing at her.

“Sorry, but they don’t look anything like that. Most of them are really good looking. Our mother is a Fates Demon; she can alter people’s destinies. Our dad is human so we are only half demons”, Sean says, and that explains a lot.

“Is that why your eyes change to black?” Kallos asks, even though she already knows the answer. Sean gives her a slight nod, and she turns towards Ian. “What about you?”

Ian looks away, and she can tell he doesn't want to talk about this. “Sean is older than me, and he got more of the demon blood. My eyes don’t change, and I don’t give off evil vibes. Our parents found out that we’re reincarnated Ares and Apollo,” Ian adds with a quirky smile, not the one that she loves, though. It doesn’t light up his face. Kallos knows she has seen his eye change.

“Okay, so you two are part demon. What about some other people?” She turns to look at Sean. “What about the one girl we saw outside the garden; the girl with short black hair who’s really tall? Something seems different about her,” Kallos thinks she saw that her eyes were all black. Kallos’ mark was burning the whole time they were looking at each other.

“She is a full demon. She is a Succubus. Camilla hasn’t come into her full powers yet, and trusts me, we aren’t looking forward to the day when she does. Sean and I could alter people’s destinies, but it would cost us. Well, I’m not even sure if we could, since we are only half demons. Our mother can if she wants too.”

So, Camilla is a succubus; Sean and Ian are half fates demons; and she is Aphrodite, well, sort of. Kallos’ world has just gotten much more confusing. She doesn’t know where her world starts and where the real world ends.

“Okay, this is too much to take in at once,” Kallos says and starts walking in the direction of home. There has been something really bugging her about her soul-mates thing, and she needs to know the answer, now. “I have another question to ask you guys.” Out of the corner of her eyes she sees both of them glance at her and then quickly look forward. She knows they can feel her discomfort, so she goes right for it. “How do you guys feel about being a part of me forever?” She really needs to know, but is terrified of finding out what they might say. They are both standing about five feet behind her and staring at her. Ian was the first to open his mouth.

“Our parents told us about you, but we didn’t know that we were soul mates until a few days ago. We knew you were Aphrodite and it was your destiny to be with one of us; it’s part of the story. Both of us being your soul mate wasn’t part of the plan, but we will deal with it,” Sean smiles at her. It’s crazy to think that their parents knew about her when she just found out a few days ago. They seem to move in unison to her, and both of their arms encircle her. It's all too much to take in. She wanted to know everything, but she should have taken some time to get used to everything first. Kallos is still stunned about having two soul mates, but seeing how happy that made Ares makes her a little happy.

“I remember the first time our mother showed us a picture of you. You were about eight or so. You looked so cute in your red,
