The Family Secret (First Book of The Secret Series)

Prologue

Journal Entry #13:

I often wonder what death really is. There are moments when I feel close to what others believe what death is.
What death truly feels like.

But I'm getting a little ahead of myself, and those beginning words makes this story sound like a vampire romance novel. As if.
This - my - story is better, thank you very much, it doesn't have hot guys or the unrealistic - yeah, I'm going to leave it for you to decide what you think of my story.

This isn't a fairytale. When I was younger this would have been a dream come true. Now? I feel nothing without the familiar pangs of sadness and regret.
Though, as I am on a consist run with a friend while figuring some things out - that will be explained in the story - as I'm writing this. I can now see why this might be mistaken for a romantic fairytale.
Again, I will let you be the judge of that.

Just do me a favor; whatever your current situation may be, don't take it for granted or wish for something else. Believe me, my wishing cost me more than I thought it would have.

I never wanted to be a rich kid, I constantly wished for something else. To be someone else. I wished I had never been born into this rich world. And into another crazy world. What world is the second? You'll see as time progresses.

Now, for a bit of a back story to this story, the year is 2034 and things have changed since a war had broke out in the 2016-2017 years. The start of it happened in the 2006 era, no one truly knowing the exact year it all went down. Or they refused to tell me, that sounds more accurate. During that time is when the fights broke out. When the kidnappings took place.

Many thought it was a political war, others thought of it as World War III, and only a small group of the human population knew the truth. The war was of those with power and those who wanted to kill those with power. Sorry, powers. We'll get more into that later like I said earlier.

As I'm learning of the history that isn't exactly known throughout the world, I come to the realization that there was more to the story than anyone who was present would like to share. More had happened during those times of fights and kidnappings.

One thing did come out of this story of a big war, it also pertains to this current story, codenamed; The Agency. The director of this organization; The Boss.

Now I was a little skeptical when I heard that at first, awhile later I came to know the truth. Just know this, there is more to that mystery war than anyone could guessed.

For now, you need to read to find out what the truth I'm writing about is. Stay tuned for more, mainly because I wish to send this to a few friends of mine.

Now onto a letter that I have attached for some friends of mine;

Before I continue to address you all with some words of encouragement and advice, Will wants to say hi. I know, Will. I'm writing my responses to show that you're here. I'm not going to write down what you're saying.

Sorry, Will, I'm going to start ignoring you now.

WILL!

Sorry, I was punching a friend of mine. And, yes, Trev, I will be back to punch you again soon. Stop complaining to Carlos about how life isn't fair. Grow up.

Sil, you don't need another girl to solve your problems, you are smart enough to figure them out. Don't think so lowly of yourself. You are powerful. Don't think of yourself anything less than that.

Carlos...thank you. That was the best see-you-later yet. We will see each other again. The Heir will be back. I promise.

And thanks to all of you. You helped me get through a confusing time. I know I'm ranting at this point, but know that I was touched by our group dynamic as much as you all say that you were.

See you later!

Signed,

Kayla

P.S. Tell The Boss...I'm happy. I'm learning to forgive him, I only want some more time away. It wasn't easy for me. I know my leaving wasn't fair, I promise I will be back soon...
