Thief Princess
chapter 1
I don't know why they call me princess, I guess it's because my name is Sarah and in Hebrew it means princess. They always add thief before it because I am the second best thief in Venice. But first let me tell you a bit about myself. I am an orphan, I never knew my real parents. My birth mother gave me away and my father left so I was all alone, then somebody adopted me when I was three years old. I soon found out that they just wanted a maid doll. Someone to dress up in fancy, pretty clothes, someone who would also clean up after them and they're house for free. They never loved me and always hated me for my beautiful long black hair which everyone would admire except for them. When I turned ten years old, I was practically taking care of myself already and I didn't see the reason to stay. So on my fifteenth birthday I left . It was cold that night and I had something on that really did very little to keep me warm. That's where I met Scipio, I was getting a bad cold and he found me in an abandoned alley. I later learned he was just finding new short cuts. When he first saw me it surprised us both I just finished my short dinner and he came around the corner which made me jump. Of course my jump made him jump. The first time I saw the look in his beautiful, big, dark eyes. His face though was hidden in a mysterious mask. At first we didn't day anything then he said, " oh, hello I didn't know any one was... here, "
"neither did I, "
" what's your name? "
" Sarah, what's yours? "
It was very strange we couldn't stop looking at each other, " Scipio,I am called the Thief Lord here, "
" are you a thief ? "
" Of course, do not like thieves? "
" No I kind of am one myself. " We kept talking for a while sharing each others back rounds. Suddenly he realized I was coughing an awful lot, " do you feel well? I just noticed that your coughing, come I know someone who might have something for it. "
