*BEEP BEEP BEEEEP*

I groaned into my pillow as the shrill noise continued. Who ever invented alarm clocks hated teenagers. I tried to turn it off but the thing had no buttons! It was like an alarm clock from hell. Picking up the beeping machine I took out into the kitchen and laid it there for someone else to deal with. I yawned and walked back up the stairs smiling as the beeping became fainter

I curled back up in my bed and let my eyes slowly close. Unfortunately I was woken up 2 minutes later when Hera burst into the door. "Make it stop" she pleaded desperately. I sighed heavily. Picking up one of my boots I grabbed the alarm clock off her and brought the boot crashing down on the freaking thing.

"You owe me a new alarm clock" I mumble while moving past her to get into the bathroom. There was no way I would be able to get back to sleep now

"WHAT?" she screeched still half asleep "I owe you? You're the one who left the stupid thing in the kitchen so it'd wake up the whole house!" I smiled and closed the bathroom door behind me. I usually didn't shower in the morning but I hadn't showered last night

Last night...the phrase had a whole new meaning behind it now. Last night I had been rescued by a black ops team and brought back to Nora's house. I don't remember much except that I shot a guy in the leg. How I got back here was a mystery I didn't care to solve

I let the hot beads of water wash away a lot of the grime and clean out the cuts I had on my back. I found several bruises on my tummy and arms. Luckily I would be able to cover most of them up with my clothes.

I turned off the water and wrapped a towel around my body. I stopped and take a long look at my reflection. I was no longer a girl who was floundering and lost her mother. I was a girl who had been taken and beaten. My eyes now had a hard look to them and the bruise on my neck gave me this fierce warrior look. I wasn't sure I really liked this new Siren. I pushed the thought to the back of my mind and shook some of the water out of my hair. I took another look at myself and laughed. My hair now resembled dreadlocks

Walking out of the bathroom and into my wardrobe I pulled on black lacy underwear. I was deciding on what to wear when I heard my bedroom door open. Assuming it was Hera who had come looking for me I stepped out of my walk-in wardrobe in nothing but underwear. I almost died of embarrassment when I realised it wasn't Hera but Julian!

I didn't know how to react and neither did he because he seemed to have frozen in the action of taking a step. It was too late to duck and hide so I decided to play it cool. "Sorry I thought you were Hera"

"Do you always talk to Hera half nude?" he murmured while tearing his gaze to the roof

"Wouldn't you like to know you pervert." I say teasing him

"I actually couldn't care less" he says while his eyes look anywhere but at me. "And you're the one who's wearing underwear in front of me and not even covering up. You're practically throwing yourself at me" he said teasing me back

"So, as much as this awkward moment is fun" I say sarcastically "is there something important you wanted?"

"Oh yeah, Nora wants to see you downstairs" he says finally looking me in the eye. "And you probably should change into a sports bra and training clothes" he says quickly glancing at my underwear one last time. His eyes travel up to mine again but stop when he sees something of interest on my neck. Self consciously I put my hand on my neck to cover up whatever it is he's staring at angrily.
