Perfect Without Scars .{major Construction}
Back in this day and age, royalty no longer wedded royalty, simply because everyone now wanted to marry for love. Which is why a union like ours would have effortlessly drawn the crowd; peharps more enemies than friends. The marriage of a blooded royalty to a birthed royalty. Blue blood to blue blood. A union like ours, was bound to change lives to come, generations, eras even, and unwittingly... The life of my unborn child. BUT EVERYONE'S FORGOTTEN ONE RULE. "For a union to be made, royalty or no royalty, the bride and groom at least have to be present. Vows can't be made, if one of the pair gets missing. Or absent. So what happens when the bride gets kidnapped and killed? No. Don't despair. That's not the end of everything; its just the beginning, for even ghosts and corpses still have to hold on to their important earthly commitments they had, before they died. And as I take in my last couple of breaths, nothing else rips my heart apart more than the fact that my own wedding, that is supposed to have me as its bride, goes on without me. An imposter in my spot? Convenient. I hope she's also prepared to fuck my husband on our wedding night too? Don't they know that Chris knows every inch of the body of the woman he fell in love with? He'd know.. He has to... They'll all have to know... I can't exit this way. ♣° ♣° ♣° ♣° ♣° ♣° ♣° ♣° ___________________ ∞~•♦|| " I no longer know if I'm dead or alive. A corpse or a ghost.

Shadow Claw: The Life Story - The Fifth Chapter
"YOU SHOULD HAVE DIED ALONGSIDE LOST!!!" The clearing went silent. Who had spoken the words? I looked to Nova, and saw guilt. I looked to Hawthorne, and saw hurt beyond belief. "How- you...- our- my baby boy! Lost was my baby boy, Nova. It was your fault he- h-h-..." He collapsed into tears, rapidly shifting and disappearing into the inky darkness of the forest. Nova gave an anguished cry of frustration, "Hawthorne!" She screamed, spiraling into a state of utter worthlessness. I padded over gradually and rested my head on her shoulder, "Shh, shh." And I sat there with her for the rest of the night, with Jenny and James beside us too. Nova cried, Jenny cried, James cried and I cried. One for a lost love, one for a broken heart, one for a misunderstood heart, and one for a love that could never be bound. ------------------------------------------------------ Shadow Claw is finally in her sixth year of Hogwarts, but the responsibilities are weighing down on her. She has a young kitten, and has to leave Shade to take care of her during the school days. Jenny Potter has Draco Malfoy as her boyfriend, however there are consequences that neither of them are completely aware of, or willing to accept. James Black is somewhat getting over the death of his father, Sirius Black, but he isn't quite the same; and while his family try to help him, they get caught up in love and magic and danger. It's a frightening year for the trio of friends, but they can manage.
