Miss Ashlea, have a letter and breakfast is ready' Delly the house elf called softly. It was the middle of winter and Ashlea loved it. Her father always took her skiing but sadly no…. not this year he was summoned off to a "meeting" or so he had said. Ash had found a strange tattoo on his right arm. He had a lot of tattoos but this one moved anyway it was a snake he hated snakes maybe it was to remind him of how mum died and not to let him forget it. This matter would have to wait hungrier matters waited her…. like breakfast! She made her way down the grey marble steps that was her home to the kitchen. Ash hated the formal dinners her father held she liked the simple life so she ate in the kitchen. Ashlea looked a lot like her mother she was a beautiful young lady with cascading black hair and the eyes the colour of a midsummer sky, her lips was the soft smile of love But for her looks her heart had been hurt so many times she could feel the bruising as if it was yesterday. She pushed her thoughts aside and ate her cereal.
"Oh Delly before I forget wot letter?" She inquired Delly handed her the cream parchment which read:
