Unfeeling. Rude. Adverse. Closed off.
All were words that could be used to describe Cordelia Blackthorne.
Cordelia had always grown up around monsters and people who never seemed to wish for her well being.
She always wondered why she never had a family or a substantial light in her life, that was before she received one. But even then her scars and lingering pain never seemed to erase the bitterness within.
However, all of that was until something drastic happened. In which Cordelia was pushed into a new life with new people, and too good to be true opportunities. And as always, she doesn't know how to cope with the change. So she'll attempt to live her new life, trying to make room for her bittersweet songs.
Like they once said, her words were knives, it's only a matter before the beautiful kind killed.
