Amelia had a hard time falling asleep that night. Her father and her had a discussion consulting her brother, and it ended with Amelia storming away from the dinner table and locking herself in her bedroom.

Her brother was Isaac Covey. He still lived in Scotland, and Amelia was forced to leave him behind. Not that she worried about him too much; she knew that when she legally turned into an adult, she would go and live with him. Her brother always had her back. He was 16 years old, and looked a lot like her. Blond curly hair, blue eyes, and a pale complexion, you could say they were twins if they were the same age.

But even tho she didn't worry about never seeing him again, because she would, she would not agree with her father if he insulted him. Isaac was a brave and courageous man, who had the courage to stand up to Mr Covey and leave the household, promising his younger sister that he would come back one day and take her with him.

And if Amelia was forced to choose, after a while, it would always be Isaac. He loved and cared after her after all the pain they both felt, something their father wasn't able to do.

So she didn't just sit there and listen to her father scorn her brother's name.


It was very early in the morning, just past midnight when she woke up after just two hours of sleep. The heavy smell of smoke and the loud bells woke her up, and it wasn't until then that she realised that her house, was on fire. She choked out a gasp and looked out of the window. She could see no one. Of course. Her bedroom was at the back of the house, so her window showed her back garden. Everyone must be on the front side of the house.
