Laying on the bed Lyra can't help but let her thoughts wander to a darker time in life. It had
been a long time since her so called parents came to mind but for some unknown reason, they
invaded her mind now. Two people who was meant to love and protect her from the evils in
the world. They were supposed to be the ones teaching her about life yet THEY invited pure evil
and let him take her. Hating thoughts like these she tries to focus on something else but
without either Jaze or Lydoran at home there is not much to keep the darkness away. There
was a time when she as a girl thought Elmir stood for something good. He made her feel normal
and loved, not to forget, managed to make the everyday beatings stop. How foolish of her to
think that life was turning for the better when in reality everything turned for the worse.
Thinking back on everything Lyra can't help but let a sad laughter slip out. What they did to her
was only the beginning, training if nothing else for what’s to come. With the puzzle pieces
slowly coming together it wouldn't surprise her if Elmir had most if planned out from start. The
way he protected her and made sure she got an education. Everything was an elaborate plan
and in the end her parents not only got rid of her but profited from it as well. The big smile and
happy feeling she got when hearing Elmir was coming to get her, that she no longer needed to
live with the people who hated her, made colors fly around her otherwise monotone life and
brightened it beyond imagination. The landing to reality was hard. Painful and unforgettable.
Not wishing to dwell deeper into darkness and depression she looks for her phone and throws
away a text to both Jaze and Lydoran.
*To Jaz,Lyd: Hey guys, how's work?*
She doesn't have to wait more than a minute or two before getting a replay.
*To Mousy: Hectic and not as fun as being home ;P What you up to?*
*To Love: Are you bored, love? Done and on my way back. Hungry?*
*To Jaz: Nothing much. Lyd is done and on the way back. You also done soon? Hungry?*
again.
"Thought you needed some cheering up. So tell me, what you made you so sad today?"
Tilting her head a little she rests her eyes on Lydoran wondering how he always seems to be
spot on in his hunshes. Maybe it's a vampire thing she concludes inwardly. "Just thought of my
parents and how stupid I was for thinking life would be for the better when Elmir came to get
me. Never thought such a nice person could turn out to be the cruelest of them all."
"Nothing stupid with how you were thinking, love. Anyone in your shoes would have thought
the same. Come here." Looking into his smiling face and warm silver-grey eyes she smiles back
and walks into his out stretched arms. Hiding her face in his chest she hugs him back. Loving
how warm and cuddly he is. Strangely enough she knows deep inside that neither Lydoran nor
Jaze will ever do what Elmir did to her. They are genuine and truly cares for her. It gives an
incredible feeling in knowing that.
