“To save them, two of the archangels were sent to Earth – Gabriel and Michael. Gabriel (Allegra) was the strongest. She was Michael’s – Charles Force’s twin. His only love. It was her original sacrifice. He only followed out of his love for her. He gave up Paradise to be with her. They were blood bound to each other until she met Stephen. Charles left the family, too a new name and forsook the Van Alen Legacy. When Stephen died, Allegra swore never to take another human familiar to preserve their love. That’s why she does not wake up. She exists between life and death.”
