Scorched...

Ever hear about the man Icarous who died flying too close to the sun...

I was a normal 16 year old girl living in a not so normal world. The world had gone to shit, and somehow the world suddenly lost all of its progress on equality. Men controlled everything and I mean everything. There were three "royal" families in the world: The Irons, The Kozlovsky's, and The Egerton's. They had everything they needed or wanted while the rest of us just sat along for the ride. Every year they held a New Year's party, and everyone who was anyone would be there. Unfortunately that included me, seeing as though dad worked for the bastards. Hi I'm Drusilla. Us woman were back to being incapable objects for their amusement. While some of the more complacent girls took what they were given with a smile on their face, I made it clear that I was no mans trophy, at least that's what I say to myself in my head. I have a tendency to be shy, invisible, until that night. Damn curiosity!
