A Price Willingly Paid

Sophie knew what the world thought of her at a young age. She knew her presence drew scorn. She knew her appearance was a reason to tremble. The world looked at her like she was the demon queen- All because she was born without a soul. Being a wraith was a curse, and one that the humans of the plane didn't react kindly to. She spent her life paying for others' hate, all holding onto hope that there was something more for her, however, she couldn't keep holding on forever. One day, she would slip, and on that day, the world would be the one who pays for her happiness.
