I opened my eyes, and squeezed them shut again. The light was blinding my eyes. I could hear someone laughing, it sounded like a guy.

"Sorry, you'll get used to the light," said a voice.

Slowly I tried to open my eyes, and after a few minutes, the light was almost bearable. I looked around and noticed that I was in a small white room, lying in a bed that occupied most of the room. The celing light was on, and the curtains were pulled back, allowing more light into the room. Sitting in a chair on the left side of the room was a guy. He was very good looking. He had short spiky black hair, and deep green eyes. He had pale skin, and was well defined.

"W..who are you?" I asked.

He laughed again, and this time I was certain he was laughing at me.

"I am Niko Veronze. And you are..."

"Alex."

He sat very still, and an awkward silence filled the room. I noticed his eyes were taking in my appearence. I have dark blue eyes, and ivory skin. My hair is dark brown and waves to my shoulders.

"So... where am I?"

"You are in Keelie Manor."

"Oh."

Where the heck is Keelie Manor? How did I get here? I want to go home!
