Title: The Family

Even though they arrived during the early hours of a novian morning, the atmosphere still breathed filled with grace,  The city was silent and the wind howled, moving the trees in the same breath. 

The lights of stars illuminated the sky, making the island look as if she entered a place from a fairytale she read about.

"Wow," she exclaimed Nicholas let out a hushed laughed.

"It's beautiful isn't it," He said and she smiled "Just don't get caught up in the beauty of the island, sight can be the most deceiving sense of all." 

Cryptic, that was who Nicholas was, she was now realising that, yes he was charming, withheld a smile that could have ladies drooling at his feet and eyes that looked like the sun god -Apollo- himself hid a ray of sunlight in them creating a golden effect. The epitome of creation itself.

Even self, his demeanor hid demons and sorrows behind a mask of determination to get to a goal he was hiding from the world, well his world.
