CHAPTER 1.

Once upon a time, in a noble house of de La'Sier a girl was born, and was named Sela. She was smart, beautiful, elegant - in other words Sela had everything a daughter of a noble needed. Everybody loved and cherished her, even the king and the queen were fond of the girl. Some people said that Sela was a national treasure, because not all of the girls were that perfect. Her fiance was the crown prince himself and she would have become an empress one day, if it were not for.....

THE CURSE.

Of course, at first nobody even thought that Sela is cursed or doomed. But suddenly, when she was 16, her maids started to die. And again, at first everybody thought it was an accident, but the maids kept dying, and afterwards Sela's mother had miscarriage. At that time her father was the first to notice that something was not right. He looked through the history of the de La'Sier house and found out that once a century a cursed child was born. It was said the child had white hair and dark red eyes, unlike all the other de La'Sier children. It was the exact description of Sela. Also, this child would bring nothing, but misfortune to her family and surroundings. When her mother found out about it, she was terribly afraid and even ordered to kill poor Sela, but Sela's father stoped her. It was an awful night:

Her mother(Elsa): -Aaaaaaa, no, no, dear, we are all doomed! Why! Why!

Her father(Michael): Calm down, darling! Be calm! We should inform our poor daughter about it first.

Elsa: No! I don't want to see that walking CURSE! She is monster!!! We should kill her immediately!!! To the servants

Servants, burn that damned creature alive!!!!

Michael: Stop! Stop! Are you crazy! Bring the doctor here!

Elsa: No! I'm totally fine! Darling, sobbing sob-sob, I'm just so afraid! What if the cursed child will kill us!

Michaele: Okay, okay, I will deal with her right now, just calm down....

Elsa: Okay, thank you dear.

Michael's thoughts

-Oh, our poor child! I hoped you will have a good and happy life! oh, god! What must I do now!??? crying

After that, Sela's life became a nightmare. Soon everyone knew about the curse and were afraid of Sela. Her friends and family turned away from her. The so-called national treasure became a damned monster. Sometimes Sela thought, what if all of this was a dream? She hoped that it was just a bad dream, a nightmare, that will end, for sure. But, it didn't end. The situation became even worse. What will the poor, little girl do now, after all of these misfortunes? What will happen to her? Will it be worse than now?

CHAPTER 2.

As it was already said, people were afraid of Sela, and tried to avoid her. Of course, Sela herself didn't want to go outside after the news about the curse. It was a shock for the poor girl. But being the only daughter of de La'Sier house, she must attend royal banquets. Such events were a torture for Sela. People not only avoided her, but also humiliated.

And this banquet was one of them. It was the prince's coming of age ceremony. All of the nobles were there, and Sela came there too. Every banquet was a torture for her, but this was the worst.

Welcome lady Sela de La'Sier! of the noble house of de La'Sier!

After this words everyone fell silent and looked at Sela. She tried not to look at those killing eyes, tried to avoid trouble. But, at that moment, one woman cried out and fainted! Everyone started whispering:

1: - Oh, look. This is the cursed child.

2: - Let's go, I don't want to bring misfortune to my family.

3: - Oh, dear, I'm so afraid!

4: -Poor parents, so unlucky to have a monster instead of a normal child.

Sela tried to pass over those words and whispers, but she couldn't. ( Because of them, poor Sela spend nights crying and wishing to die. )

But her misfortunes didn't end there. The crown prince spilled a glass of wine on Sela and cried out:

-Aaaaaaa, help! Get her away!

to Sela

Get away from me! Monster!!!

Sela's thoughts

-No, no, no, why!!!!!!!!??????? Why!!!!??

She cried out in tears:

-What did I do wrong?!!,

And ran away. She ran, and ran, and ran again, ran until she was on the roof of the castle. There she stood for some time, crying, cursing life and god. But suddenly she stopped, walked to the railing, climbed over it, and looked down. The land was small from here.

Sela whispered:

-Goodbye, life! Goodbye dad, mum, I hope you will be happy without me.... I'm sorry, I can't stand everything anymore, I just can't...... please be happy for me....... good.. bye...

with this words she let go of the railing, closed her eyes and smiled..........................

But she didn't fall.

Sela's thoughts

-Huh? Why am I not falling? Am I dead allready?

She opened her eyes and saw a boy, standing there and trying to pull her over, back on the roof.

Sela: angry What are you doing!? Let go!? Can't you even let me die easily!? I'm fed up with life! FED UP!!!!!

Boy: - NOO, I won't let go. I can't! You should live!

With this words he suddenly pooled Sela back.

She rose and looked at the boy. He was of her age, young, quite handsome, and beautifully dressed.

Sela: - What do you want from me? Didn't you hear the rumours?

Boy: - I did. But I don't pay attention at them. laughing It said that you are a creature that brings misfortune! Hahaha

Sela: - What's so funny. Wanna be cursed? Aren't you afraid?

Boy: - No, oh, yeah, almost forgot..... Let's be friends!

At first Sela didn'tbelieve her ears. Somebody wanted to be friends with her! Suddenly, she began to cry, loudly as a child. This were tears of joy mixed with sadness, love with hate. She cried, cried, cried and could not stop. Tears kept running down her cheeks.

The boy smiled, rose and hugged Sela.

He whispered to her with a smile:

I will consider this as a "yes".........

Sela cried, cried, and cried and couldn't stop. All this time she kept this tears to herself, and this pain consumed her from the inside.

At last she found somebody who will ease the pain. And this person was her first friend, who knew about the curse, her first friend in 2 years, duke Salvatores only son - Sebastian Salvatore.

Sebastian hugged Sela, tightly, and did not let go until she stopped crying.

Sela smiled, and said:

- Thank you, dear friend..... Oh, I forgot... what's your name?

- Won't tell..

- ? What? Why?

- hahaha, *he laughed*, just kidding. My name is Sebastian. Seba for friends.

-Oh, mine is...

- I already know. Sela, right?

- Yeah....

Seba: -Well now that you are fine, let's go back.

Sela: - No, everybody is still there, I.....

Seba: -Heey, come on, I'll protect you!

Sela: - Promise?

Seba: - Promise.

Sela: - Okay then. Let's go.

Seba took her hand and they both went to the banquet.

They opened the large door of the banquet hall..... Everybody looked at them and gasped. And then.....

Duchess Salvatore: - Get away from him, monster! my dear son don't hold that cursed thing's hand!

Seba: - Please, be calm, mother, be calm. Let me explain it to everyone here. Sela is my dear best friend. So I won't let anyone bully her. If you bully Sela-think that you declared war to me and house Salvatore.

Duchess: - I reject! You can't! I am your mother! Listen to me!

But Sebastian just turned away and walked out of the hall together with Sela.

After the door after them closed, Seba said:

- Hey, Sela, can I go to your house today ?

- But your parents....

- Oh, they will be fine! Please!

- Okay then...

- Let's go ! Sela!

-Yeah, let's,

said Sela with such a beautiful and innocent smile.

It was 9 p.m. when she and Seba reached the de La' Sier house. Of course nobody came to escort them into the house and nobody greeted her in it.

- Hey, where are your servants?,

Seba asked.

Sela: - Probably serving my parents.

Seba: - Sorry, I shouldn't have asked.

Sela: - No, no, it's okay! Totally!

said Sela and smiled.

Sela: - Actually I don't really know were to put you....

Seba: - Then can I sleep in your room?

Sela: - *blushing* well, if you insist....

Seba: - *laughing* haha, don't worry, I won't do anything, haha haha!!! You blushed! That was cute! Blush again!

Sela: - *blushing again* Heeey, stop laughing!

Seba: - Oh, sorry! Haha, you are just so cute when you blush!

They were laughing, when they heard an angry voice:

- What's going on here!?

It was Sela's father.

Sela: - Oh, sorry father, we just.... ,

said SELA and stepped forward to explain, but suddenly her mother appeared. And cried out:

- Keep your distance, monster!

The poor girl immediately stopped smiling. Tears flowed from her eyes.

Then Sebastian stepped forward.- Hello, duke and Duchess de La'Sier. It's a pleasure to meet you. I am Sebastian Salvatore, son of duke Salvatore.-" It's a pleasure to meet you too, young duke", said Sela's father,- "But what are you doing in her room? Please, for your own sake, keep away from Sela. She is cursed."

Sebastian threw a glance at Sela and saw her crying. He immediately became serious. And said:- I'm sorry, but I don't want to, because Sela is my dear best friend. That is why please do not interfere in our relationship, if you don't want to see or speak to Sela. Because if you bully her, you will face me.

- Oh, so you are serious about your friendship. Okay, then. Let's go, darling. But first, servants, prepare a room for the young duke.

Servant: - Yes, my Lord.

When they went away, Sebastian turned to Sela, hugged her and said:

- Hey, Sel, don't cry, I'm here, here. See? We won today........
