Once my mom told me to never forget why you started.
Why did I start?
Hi. For those who don't know me my name is Alexis Kyler, Daughter of Hera, Huntress of Artemis. Soon to be former Huntress of Artimis. One way or another.
"Lex…" My eyelids fluttered open to large dark eyes and a cascade of dark hair in my face. Standing over me was one of my sisters in arms, Gabi Restare, waving her hand over my face as if the movement was going to wake me up.
"What?"
"How are you doing? You ok?"
I let out a small laugh but I stopped because it hurt my chest to laugh. My eyes squinted as I winced in pain. I made a mental note, no more laughing.
"Ok? Am I ok? I've never been ok."
Maybe I was bitter. Maybe I was frustrated that nothing in my life ever turned out the way I wanted. Maybe I was scared I was winding down the path of becoming like my mom. But ok? Never.
Gabi sat on the side of my bed, and ran her hand on the silver comforter making swirls in the fabric. It was funny she wasn't saying anything because Gabi was one of those girls who literally could never shut up.
"Are any of us ok?" I said quietly to her, closing my eyelids again to shut her out.
There were multiple reasons I wasn't ok. And explaining all of them would take forever. Then again, I guess I have time.
"It all started with Blake."
Hope you liked this chapter, our story begins next chapter. And Alexis will begin to explain how a Huntress of Artemis falls in love. Because they don't, and she did.
