Cursed Souls

I remember the first time I met my guardian. Zero. I was 13 and had literally lost everyone dear to me. My parents had been killed and every one of my relatives was missing. My latest foster parents had gone missing also, and that was when I had met the council. They had said I was cursed, and one of the worst cases they had seen. I had no idea at the time that this meant I was cursed with the Winter soul. Something that usually destroys whoever it happens to curse. I had been hunted my entire life, and they said it would only get worse. That was when they introduced me to the person who would be my guardian. The person who would keep me safe and be the only family I would ever have. When I first laid eyes upon the 15 year old, he looked just as shattered and broken as me. But as soon as his blue eyes met my white, something changed in both of us. He smiled at me and I heard gasps from the council. He hadn't smiled in 6 months. Due to his families death. I smiled back, and thus became the relationship that would change my life.
