The Blond Beauty

Chapter Three

Chapter Two recap: "We've talked about this in school before. The lost prince, named Edward, was taken from his parents grasp at 3 years old for his special power of immortality. Now believed to be 15 years old, no one has heard from him. Holy crap, that is me! But how..why..I can't belie-" "Oh dear, what have I told you about talking to strangers? "My mom says, as she steps out of the house.

"Mom, is it true? Is what she's saying the truth?" My mom ignores me and glares at Scarlett. "Who are you and why are you here telling my son these ridiculous lies?" "I'm Scarlett George, and I am not the on lying to Kieran. You are and you know it. How could someone ever be so selfish that they would kidnap someone's child for their own good." My mom lowered her eyes and it seemed as if steam was about to come out of her ears. "How dare you, come to MY house and call ME a liar. Even if what you just said is true, you have no place to come here and just start assuming things. Kieran, honey, don't believe her. She's lying, hon." She walks up to me and tries to brush my cheek.

"No, don't touch me. Don't you touch me, ever again. I believed you, mom. Or should I say, Witch Elouise. I should've known better," I say, shaking my head. "We look nothing alike. You always tell me 'oh it's just genetics from your grandparents' but you're not even my real mom! You're a fake. A selfish witch. No wonder you kept me locked up in this house ever since 2nd grade. All the homeschooling and all the speeches about how it was dangerous out there. I thought it was because you loved me. I thought it was because you cared about me. But you don't. You just care about yourself. I never want to see your evil face again."

I have the urge to cry, but it's less than the anger I am feeling. And besides, crying would give Scarlett the impression that I'm a loser and I'm not. The witch that posed as my mom just stood there staring at the both of us. The more she stared, the more truth I saw. Her brunette hair started to turn a light shade of gray and her teeth started to rot. But in a matter of seconds it was gone.

"Kieran, this, this, thing," she motions to Scarlett, who clearly is offended, and rolls her eyes, "she tried to come for you before. You were just a kid, so you wouldn't remember. I know you hate me, but I promise you, I'm not a witch. I'm not a witch, right?" She seemed to have a sad look on her face, and for a minute, I kind of felt bad for her.

"If you're not what she says you are, then say that you love me right now. Say it, with no hesitation, say it with meaning.". "I..I..I think you're a great person,". Unbelievable.

"All these years, you told me that you knew how bad the world was and that you're keeping me locked up for my own safety. What kind of mother can't even say I love you to her own son. I despise you and I hate you. C'mon, Scarlett. We're outta here."

As we started to walk away, we heard mumbling. Turning around slowly, we come across something very interesting. Hairs everywhere and sharp claws. Her teeth are no longer pearly white and her skin is no longer a nice peachy color.

She took a deep breath, and lunged for Scarlett.

A/N

sorry this chapter sucks and is like super short.

also, sorry for not updating, I just couldn't find the motivation to write which is weird bc I love to write lol

so if you know me irl, you'd know that I'm an Allstar cheerleader, which is competitive cheer

Allstar isn't your typical rah-rah, Pom Pom, chants cheer. It's a 2 min and 30 second routine of hardcore tumbling, stunting, jumping, and at the end a dance (if you want to see what I'm talking about go on my IG which is @debtumbles #shamelessselfpromo)

but anyways, my gym's level 5 team is at a competition which judges the best in the world. as of yesterday , they were in 8th place out of like 47 teams so that's pretty good.

i guess that's why i haven't updated bc I've been tracking them all weekend, and also bc of practices. i actually have practice today, but I didn't want to leave you guys hangin'

also, my choir teacher is scheduling all these crazy practices bc competition is coming up soon so yaaaa.

but anyways, i hope you liked this chapter. make sure to comment any ideas/suggestions and I'll be sure to take them into consideration. Also, don't forget to vote for whatever chapter is your favorite :)

until next time my loves
