chapter two |
I began my journey into my new life, a life with new people to call my family. Alec basically ignores my very presence, its rather infuriating. He makes it very clear he loathes me. Not a very welcoming person. I don't blame him, change can be hard. Jace is, well how do I put this? He's charming indeed, though he tends to flirt often. He is quite intelligent, yet he hides it. Nathan is a sweetheart. He's so caring, and friendly. He's is very kind to me, despite me being a stranger. Mr. Ravenwood has become more social, he speaks to me occasionally. I am glad for it. Mrs. Ravenwood is a woman of her word, she makes me feel welcomed and loved. I thank her greatly. ++++ I place my journal away and head downstairs, where everyone gathered in the sitting area. Quietly I listen to their conversation, I know eavesdropping is considered rude, but wouldn't you listen had you heard your name? "I don't know if we should tell her, her very existence puts her in grave danger." I recognized Mr. Ravenwood's voice say. What on earth are they talking about? "We cant protect her from herself." Alec's scowl was evident in his voice. I could practically feel Jace roll his eyes. "Please, you just cant stand that you have to help someone you strongly dislike." Nathan had spoken at last. I frowned, why did he not like me? "I don't 'dislike' her." Alec had mumbled. I would have scoffed had I not wanted to be discovered. I decided to make my presence known, I stumbled down the last step. They immediately quietened down. "Hello," I waved awkwardly. Alec rolled his eyes distastefully at me. I glared at him, gaining a startled look. Suddenly I felt a warm tingle spread throughout my body, going dizzy I clutched the railing behind me. Nathan rushed towards me, an unreadable expression flashed across Alec's face, I couldn't help but feel puzzled. Everything went dark |
