I spent all of this time watching the others, and wondering to myself how I could possibly escape this predicament. Such an odd one, too. The personalities of the boys were so horrifically unexpected that my composure withered away almost immediately, and I was left in a puzzled, albeit mildly curious state. As they all began to disperse, I pondered the purpose of my being here. The town had told us of ravenous beasts, not air-headed teenagers! Why were we even here if not to be served as sacrifices?! Not that I was disappointed, of course. Anything had to be better than bloodthirsty monsters, surely?At the mention of a library, my head perked up, but I resisted following the girl. Allie.. was that her name? She seemed so sugary sweet.. she reminded me of Angelique, my little sister. To be frank, I did not get on all that well with Angelique.Heh, I don't really get on that well with anyone.My curiosity writhed inside me, and moments later, I decided to quench my thirst, choosing to explore. I wandered down the hallway, glancing left and right as I peered through doorways into different rooms. Suddenly, though, I reached the end of the hallway, and opened the great pair of oaken doors that stood there. A flood of colour washed into my vision, and, after descending the ivory steps, I found myself in a beautiful garden. The awe was clear on my face as I strode through the flowers. Statues were scattered throughout the scenery: nymphs adorned with ivy, lions stood at attention. I approached a little Cupid with a small smile, reaching out to touch its tiny, ivory fingers.Only to break one off."Oh, sh-" I awkwardly tried to reattach the finger, but to no avail. "Come on, you stupid.."
Kyle snapped his book shut, he was leaning against another statue of a gargoyle beast.
"You'll have to pay for that, you know."
He held up a hand and cut off her inevitable question.
"Before you can ask, I'm not here because I followed you. This is a nice place to read."
That was.... Partially true. After introducing himself in the parlor, he had hung back and observed the goings on and read from his book. It wasn't until the visitors and his brothers started to drift away that he noticed he wasn't the only one just observing.
He studied the girl until she left the room, fir some unknown reason she piqued his curiosity. So he had followed her until she got to the garden.
Buy honestly it
is a nice place to read as well.
