*BOOK ONE* *COMPLETED*

"I don't need your pity." Regulus began pulling a box of cigarettes from his pocket "I know how shitty my family is."

He handed a cigarette to Astrid, who placed it in her mouth before allowing Regulus to light it with his lighter.

Regulus watched as she took a draw, her cheeks hollowing out before releasing the white smoke from her perfect full lips.

"Your right, pity is over rated," Astrid said cigarette in hand "Fuck pity."

Regulus chuckled at her words "Who hurt you?" He asked lighting his own cigarette.

"It doesn't matter," she said with a small smile "The world is filled with assholes, who cares anymore."

"And I guess I'm one of those assholes," Regulus mused blowing smoke out from his mouth.

Astrid turned towards him "The world is filled with assholes, but your not one of them Reg."

"How do you know that," Regulus asked looking up at the cloudy winters sky.

"Because assholes don't care about others as much as you do."
