“What do you want to do to Eva?” He asked before facing me again.
                  I winced at the question and stood as absolute hatred filled me.  I crossed my arms over my chest as my heart rate quickened, “I want her dead but I want her to suffer first,” I said as my bottom lip trembled, “She should pay for what she did.  She should suffer and die.”
                  Tamas stepped forward and cupped my cheeks as he stared down into my eyes.  He nodded once, “I’ll help you do that,” he said, “Just promise me that you won’t leave here by yourself.  Just don’t ever leave me behind.  Promise me that.”
                  My breath caught in my throat at his words and my anger cooled.  His gaze was intense as I took a deep, shuddering breath, “I won’t leave,” I whispered as tears filled my eyes and spilled over flowing down my cheeks to his hands, “I promise.”
                  He nodded as his face hardened, “I promise that Eva will die for what she has done to you and your family,” Tamas said, rubbing my tears away with his thumbs, “I will help you.  I will always help you.”
                  “Thank you,” I whispered in a broken voice. 
                  He stared at me tortured as he caressed my cheek once more.  He pulled me to him and pressed his lips against mine.  He deepened the kiss pulling every bit of sadness and anger from me as his promise settled into my soul.

Familiar Faces
                  “Get up!” Mirella whispered too close to my ear.  I winced as I forced open one eye and groaned. 
                  “Why are you here?” I asked, yawning widely as I tried to snuggle deeper into my blankets by covering my face. 
                  She pulled the blanket away and grinned, “It’s shopping time,” she said, nudging me again, “We’re getting your dress today.  You want a beautiful dress to wear to your wedding, don’t you?”
                  I yawned again, “I’m too tired,” I said as I opened both of my eyes to peer at my future sister-in-law with annoyance. 
                  “So was Aurora but she went and she doesn’t even like shopping,” Mirella said, laughing at my reaction before standing straight and crossing her arms over her chest.  She raised one eyebrow, “I won’t leave you alone until you get up.”
                  I sighed and sat up realizing that she wasn’t lying.  Whether I wanted to or not, I was getting out of bed, “Fine,” I said, wrinkling my nose in disgust.
                  Mirella clapped.  I rolled my eyes.  She was too happy first thing in the morning, “We get to go shopping,” she said, laughing as my mother yawned in the kitchen.
                  “What time is it?” I asked, frowning as I glanced out of the window.  The sky was still a shade of dark gray that screamed that it was early. 
                  “Seven,” she said as a knock sounded at the door.  I stared at it, surprised.  I suppose Mirella wasn’t the only one who woke early in the Brazil family. 
                  My mother answered the door and Lilly stepped in with a big grin.  She raised her brows, “She’s not up yet?” She asked and laughed, “You’re losing your touch, Mirella.” 
                  “What do you mean?” I asked frowning as I glanced between them. 
                  “Don’t expect to sleep in when there is a shopping trip or a wedding,” Lilly said with a snicker, “Mirella will wake you up and she won’t leave you alone until you get out of bed. Usually, she has the bride-to-be up long before I arrive.”
                  “I haven’t lost my touch.  I had to wake up Aurora,” Mirella said, narrowing her eyes, “She wasn’t nice.  I thought she was a lady
