Iris was a normal girl...Well at least that what she thought before she was pulled from her family. She watched her parents be executed and was to be executed the day after, but escaped. Now, she has met a boy. Ajax. She has a connection with him, but first, will she be able to trust him after he lied to her? Will she ever be able to escape from the Lord who rules the New World? And will the Prophecy become true? "I'll be back tomorrow to check on you and make sure you don't get an infection. Tell your guard if your bandages need to be replaced. Oh, and I almost forgot." He says. Ajax leans towards me and kisses my cheek that doesn't have scratches. "What was that for?" I ask, stunned a little and my heart beating quickly. "Now we're even." He replies with a lopsided grin. I roll my eyes and we say our goodbyes. Did he seriously just pay be back for teasing him? I laugh at the idea that he actually knew that I was teasing him.
