The smell of caramel latte fill my half conscious mind. I rolled over trying to get more of the delicious smell in my nose.

"Good afternoon, sunshine." Jamie said with her high pitch voice sitting on the bed next to me.

"I smell something good." I said with an groggy voice. I lefted up on my elbows and seen a coffee machine, two large cups, and a blueberry muffin. My favorite combination.

"Yep, I knew you had a rough night so I personally made you your favorite coffee and muffin. I hope you like it." 

I pull myself up farther on the bed to let Jamie place the tray of coffee and muffin on my legs. I can see the steam from the latte float around in the air. Jamie was taking small sap from the cup. The two months I have been living here I always admired her and Rose Ann relationship. They seem more like sister when they are together. They told me that I was already apart of the family but I still feel like an outsider. Probably because I'm still human. Probably.

"When you finish the Queen is here and want to see you." Jamie said gracefully lifting her body off of the bed.

"Elizabeth is here." I said with a smile on my face. I remember the first day I met Derick parents. 

"Essence' I will like for you to meet the King and Queen, my parents." Derick said to me.

I was so scared of meeting them. What if they didn't like me? I was just a simple human nothing special about. Derick reach his hand behind himself to grab my shirt. I tried to yank away but of course it wasn't working. Derick swung me around his side until I was facing them. They were breathe taking. The King had sandy brown hair and honey brown eyes just like Derick and Dustin. He was atleast over six tall and very built. Between him and Derick I will choose the father any day. The Queen was more my height and had a small delicate face.

"Finally nice to meet you Essence'. You are the only thing my son talks about." She reach her hand out and I hesitantly took it. 

"It's nice to meet you the queen." I said not knowing the proper word to response to.

She giggled just a little. "You my dear can call me Elizabeth."  

"How you do? You can call me Luther." The king told me. I just nodded my head. I felt Derick cold hand grab my waist from behind. 

"Don't be scared." He whisper in my ear. I knew his parent heard him because they was smiling even harder. 

"You my dear is a very special person, and trust me you will grow to love us." said Elizabeth. 

She was right,  I grew very much to love them all. 

When I finish my coffee and muffin I did my daily routine. I took a short shower to excited to be in there any longer. I wore grey sweat and a yellow t-shirt something simple knowing that I will be in a ball grown later that night. I open the bedroom door leading into the office. Everyone was in there.

"Elizabeth!" I said half running to her open arms. Her cold embrace sent chills down my arm.

"Hello my dear. How are you feeling?" She said putting the back of her hand against my forehead.

"I take it that someone told you." I said cutting my eyes at Dustin and Derick who just smiled at me.

"I told you that something was special about you." Elizabeth said regaining my attention. I looked into her eyes.

"Did you know that I was a Goddess?" I narrowed my eyes at her.

"Come take a sit." She took my hand and guided me on the couch next to Rose.
