As I was pushed behind the massive doors into an even bigger room, I let my eyes roam the expanse of the room. My eyes stopped on a large figure with his back to us.
"Kneel.",the guard behind me hissed into my ear.
"Well, I can't courtesy of one of your colleagues who decided it would be a good idea to shatter my knee.
"Then bow.", He whispered harshly.
"Enough!",
His voice was like molten gold boomed through the whole room. He turned to reveal his eyes. His Amber eyes stopped me right in my tracks. In a split second he was s standing in front me looking into my Icy blue eyes. It felt like he was peering right into my soul. He turned to the guard, "leave", the guard practically ran out of the room.
He was supporting me now. I just kept staring at him. The rumors didn't do him justice, was all I could think about, from his striking eyes to his Roman nose and high cheekbones. He was beautiful. He was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen.
"What is your name?"
"Alexandria Lennox."
"Rank"
"Healer....and Omega."
"What are you doing here?"
"I needed to see you."
"Why?",his eyes were cold and calculating, just like the rumors.
"I need something from you."
"What made you think that you would get into my territory, enter my castle and see me and much less get what you want without getting killed?"
"I didn't but there are some risks that have to be taken."
He tucked my platinum blonde hair behind my ear.
He smiled, it was cold. A chill went down my spine. Something was wrong.
Before I could I do anything his canines were on my neck.
I wanted to fight, to do something but it was too late.
I could only feel his canines in me, marking me as his. I felt the bond rip open, spring to life tying itself around me and him. It was lurching joining our life forces together. It was growing with every passing second.
The last thing u saw was his face before the darkness swallowed me.
I am insufficient. Well, that's not my name obviously, but that's what my family has decided I am.
I'm Julie. I'm 14, about to be 15 years old. I have a twin sister, Jamie. Jamie is an angel. Perfect at everything, and can do no wrong. At least in my family's eyes. And I? I am not perfect. I am a disappointment. Though they've never said that to me outright, I know that's what they truly think.
The apparent "last straw" was when Jamie fucked up and I took the fall for it. Now, I'm on my way to live with some of my more distant relatives back in Italy. They're supposed to "put me back in my place."
So now I get to go live with 3 Italian Capo's.
Sounds like fun right?

What happens when Julie gets sent away? And what happens when her relatives receives a girl they had been brought to believe was a troublesome, borderline delinquent teenager, but is actually just a confused, dissociative little girl with a messed up idea of what family really means.
And what happens when Julie comes to realise that the people she was living with, weren't all who they said they were?
