Chapter Five: The Party
I was now in my room preparing for the 'party' Jase set up. This party was in place to cover up the 3 elite groups coming over to observe me. I know I'm going to feel very awkward soon.
Jase and Ajax invited the 3 elite groups and their families over. They invited their families over so it would look less suspicious and more comfortable with some people my own age. Apparently they are hiding me from the public and the only people who know about me are the elites. Being hidden because your not suppose to exist isn't what I imagined my life turning out to be. People are going to find out about me one way or another. That sure sounds fan fucking wonderful right?
I was thinking about all of this when Heath, the Vanderbilt's stylist, was doing my hair. Instead of it being crazy curly it was straightened to perfection. He did my makeup and picked out my outfit too. It was nice being treated like this.
However, they did have some good taste. A aqua colored dress that I could never afford in a billion years stared at me. The jewels that accompanied the expensive dress was even more precious. I gaped at both of them.
How my life changed so drastically over my stabbing.
I felt guilty though. The Vanderbilt's didn't have to do this. Plus their money could help a lot of orphaned kids. One of the earrings they got me could feed my foster family for months, maybe even a year. How rich were these people? Bill Gates rich?
It was 5:45 right now and the party started at 6. I started to feel anxious. What if they decide I'm horrible and didn't want me here in the Mythical Realm? Will they banish me or kill me? How will they react to me being the first witch?
"What's wrong, love? You seem troubled." Heath looked down at me with a concerned expression.
"Just nervous." I muttered. "Are the elite nice?"
"Well some are. Some are hard asses. But otherwise they are nice." He examined my worried face. "Don't sweat it, kid. They'll love you. Especially with Ajax part of the coven and Jase part of the clan. You have nothing to worry about."
A relieved sigh left my lips. "Thanks for all of this."
"It's my job." He laughed, eyes softening. "But anytime."

I quickly looked around the ball room. It was filled with fancy dressed rich people. I was searching for any of the Vanderbilt's or at least Adonis. So far I haven't seen any of them. I felt out of place and everyone was staring at me. They all were whispering and gesturing my way. I felt like an animal at the zoo.
"Hello there." A man with graying hair looked down at me. His more than six foot frame was towering over my body.
"Hello." I shook his out stretched hand.
"I'm Victor Rossdale." He grasp was firm and strong. "I'm a friend of the Vanderbilt's."
"I'm Danai." I smiled at him. "Nice to meet you."
"What's your last name, Danai?" He looked at me strangely.
"Er..." I never been at a foster home long enough to actually get used to the last name. And as far as my birthparents go, they left me on the doorstep of the foster center with a shirt that said 'Danai' and are magical apparently. "I don't have one..."
