Episode 1- A Blessing In Disguise

Kira was at the side of the dance drinking and talking with a young man. As a slow dance started, he held his hand out for her, but she politely refused. Her family had warned her time and time again to refuse any man's hand. After all, this was the biggest ball of the year and powerful people were attending. Kira wasn't going to give them a reason to scold her. When I don't do anything wrong they find a way to make it sound bad she thinks. What would happen if I actually disobeyed? Shivering at the thought, the dance before had ended. A new waltz started and Kira found her feet making their way to the dance floor. Her graceful movements taking her to a man with hazel eyes that looked as if they could peer into your soul. His skin was light and tan and his lips..She couldn't take her eyes of the rounded, light red lips. As their hands clasped, a shock went through electrifying both of their bodies. Fingers entwining, their swift movements were in sync for the entire piece. Slowly, desire pooled up in both of their stomachs as the man carried her out of the ballroom. With a quick pull, they were both inside the elevator. Impatiently, they waited, his finger circling the back of her palm, till the machine let out a ringing noise and the doors opened. Holding her hand, the man took her to the hotel room, swiped the card, and locked it. Once inside he threw her on the bed and they went on till they were both too tired to continue. Soon, they were both falling asleep underneath the pearl moonlight and the bright stars. When Kira awoke it was still dark outside probably around two o clock. Quietly, she picked up her things, put on her clothes, and made her way out looking back once more to the man she'd spent the night with. So much for not giving them a reason to beat me Kira thinks. I hope to see you in the future she says to the man quietly and closes the door behind her. As she makes her way outside, a cool gust of wind slaps her across her face. Her hair flies in front as she signals a taxi to take her home. Hopefully they thought I went home earlier she thought as the car arrived at her mansion. Taking her keys, she made her way to the door and silently unlocked it. Creeping up the stairs, she came to a stand still when she saw her father's furious face against the night light. Getting up, he slapped her then threw all her belongings at her, packed up. "Where were you? Slut. We saw you exit with that boy. You are a disgrace to this family. Get lost, I don't want to see you again."

Out of the corner of her eye, Kira could see her step mother smirking and her step sisters satisfied. In a way, she was happy to finally get out of her abusive household. While splattered across the floor, she vowed once more to get revenge on her "family" if not for her, for her mother. Standing up, she grabbed her suitcases and made her way out. Hoping to create a title for herself.
