This is a verse I've created for House of Night. If you are a hardcore HON fan and will cut me if I say one bad word about Zoe this isn't for you.
A glossary of terms used in this story can be found on my tumblr page, Mellindahightop under the glossary tag.
Pain.
The world was nothing put pain. Six...no seven months of training. Seven months of knowing that one day my body would be used as a god's playground. The night, the very hour after my first possession and my world explodes.
This wasn't supposed to happen...was it?
My teachers started to talk around me. Like they didn't think I could hear them.
"Is she okay?!"
"It's fine, most Conduits faint after their first possession."
"She looks like she's in pain."
Of course I'm in pain!
"I can't believe it though. A God actually spoke to us! She's only the second of this house. I wonder if any of the other houses have successfully had two of their Conduits survive?"
"Enough. You heard her God. We need to plan her move."
Move? Move where? I don't want to leave!
End of the Prologue!
