"Why do I have to be special, why can't I just be normal, a bystander?" "Ever since you were born you have never had the choice of being normal, you have always been marked as what you are, and it makes you valuable to many and your choices very few."... It was those words that changed my life, I had always been sheltered. Felt that I was never privileged to have a life of my own, due to ridiculous superstitions of others. But if I was honest with myself, I knew I was different. The way the servants would gaze upon me whenever they could but look away when I met their sight. The luminous glow of my skin that never seemed to go away. And with every passing day I stayed on the grounds, I knew that as my body changed and I was to reach the age, everything was going to change for me.

Inspired by Tarzan** Shipwrecked at three years old, Angus has known nothing but the jungle he now calls home. Faced with survival day in day out and all alone, he never realized the piece of him he was missing. The human side. Unpredictable events are thrown to Angus, ones he could never imagine in his wildest dream, all from this one girl, Evelyn, who sailed to his jungle for a research expedition. His instinct is to protect her and never let her go as she brings out something in him he hasn't felt in years. 'Take, for example, the African jungle, the home of the cheetah. On whom does the cheetah prey? The old, the sick, the wounded, the weak, the very young, but never the strong. Lesson: If you would not be prey, you had better be strong'. - G. Gordon Liddy NOTE: Wattpad has marked this as 'mature' (it's not actually that bad but what the hey, it's their website) so if you can't view chapters then you'll have to follow me sadly. Unfollow me straight again afterwards if you wish though :) !! )
