this story is too cliche for me to continue from where I left off. maybe i'm just going to edit some crappy chapters before i decide to keep working on this -K "Damnit, Nathan! Just hurry!" Sapphire exclaimed, fear taking control of her mind. Surely, the man heard her shouting now. "I'm trying to concentrate, so shut the hell up!" Nathan retorted irritatedly, his eyebrows furrowing. Then, the shed door busted open, inviting sunlight inside. Sapphire sharply inhaled, squinting her eyes from the blinding light. A large man was standing in front of the two boldly. His scruffy red hair was glowing in the sun, looking like a blaze of fire. His broad chin was speckled with stubble and his icy cold eyes made Sapphire freeze with fear. The man's thin lips formed a malevolent smile of triumph as he observed her. "Sapphire, eh?" he guessed, taking a step forward. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 17 year-old Sapphire was forced to stay at her mom's best friend, Delia's, house in the countryside. Yet, one day, a strange man barged in their home, demanding for Sapphire. Nathan, Delia's elder son, takes Sapphire with him and they escape into the city, hoping to blend in with the citizens. Little do they know, the strange man is following them where ever they go. Will the two end up safely or end up in his hands? --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cover by Sandstorm_Alchemist.
