Chapter 2
Soon we pulled up into a small town and what I saw surprised me. Although it was considered small it was really beautiful. One main thing that made it stand out was the fact that it was surrounded by a huge forest with trees that bloomed beautifully. The scene was breathtaking as flower petals drifted down with the wind looking picturesque. After a while of admiring dad turned the wheel and I came face to face with a huge mansion. It looked out of place in a town of small peaceful looking houses and its magnificence left people gaping. He stopped the car in the driveway and signaled for me to get down my mom following suit . Coming out I noticed a woman standing at the door her smile wide and welcoming. Her skin was pale like paper , eyes a beautiful shade of almond which seemed to sparkle in the sunlight and lips as pink as strawberries. She looked like she was in her mid thirties like my mom and turns out they used to work together. “ hi darling you must me Eliana ! It’s so nice to finally meet you ! I’m Rosary Egrest “ she introduced flashing me a million dollar smile , her blonde hair slightly swaying in the wind “ hi it’s nice to meet you too ! “ “ your parents told me you would be staying here for a while so why don’t you give Sebastian here your bags and he’ll get you settled ! “ she gestured over a butler who I hadn’t noticed before and he silently took my bags. I smiled and nodded looking back every few seconds and watching as her and my parents strolled along the pathway deep in conversation. The mansion was a s magnificent as the outside chandeliers lining the roof and beautiful paintings hung neatly on the walls. The decor was in red black and grey which was aesthetically pleasing to look at. The butler Sebastian as rosary had called him led me up a flight of stairs and into a room down the door. He opened the door and a beautiful room in white and grey came into view. I walked in glancing around at the room trying to take everything in when Sebastian spoke up “ I hope you settle in nicely young miss “ “ thank you ! But you can just call me Eliana no need for formalities ! “ he didn’t say anything just nodded and left. I walked to the balcony and stepped out to meet a view of a vast forest and just beyond it was a clearing. I wasn’t expecting something to be there beyond the forest and wondered why the area was cleared because clearly a wide space that large in the middle of a forest wasn’t common unless it was man made. I was still wondering when suddenly at the corner of my eye I saw something move and turned to see an animal staring at me which gave me a huge scare. It looked like a wolf a very very big one. It stood at the edge of the forest surrounding the estate and the sight of it made my blood run cold “ what the fuck is that ? “.
