Chapter One: Audra's POV
"Mother,have you seen Ashlyn?" I ask as I walk out of Ashlyn and I's sleeping hut and intothe main one.
"I think she is outside with the Mikaelson's daughter," she replies turning to look atme. She frowns and says "Audra the sun has risen. You should be dressed by now."
"Sorry Mother," I apologize looking down at my white nightdress sheepishly.
"Go get dressed then come back and I shall do your hair," she sighs.
"Yes Mother," I say and go to do as she wishes.
After I dress and Mother does my hair for the day I go outside to find Ashlyn.
I look around and spot her conversing with a young blonde girl. "Ash? Who's this?" I ask as I join them.
"Rebekah Mikaelson and you are?" the blonde inquires.
"Audra Jakobson," I respond.
"She's my younger sister," Ashlyn supplies.
"I'm adopted," I tell Rebekah after seeing the puzzled look on her face. Ashlyn's last name is Thomson so that is why she was confused.
Rebekah nods and resumes her earlier conversation with Ashlyn.
As they talk I take the time to observe Rebekah.
She has long braided golden hair with blue eyes that match her green dress and she looks to be about the age of sixteen.
She seems to becoming fast friends with Ashlyn and I am not too sure how I feel about that.
"Actually Addie I have someone I'd like you to meet," Ash says suddenly while grabbing a hold of my hand to lead me over to a man with wavy brown hair. While Rebekah trails behind us.
"Finn?"Ashlyn asks and the man turns around to face us. "This is my younger sisterAudra. The one I was telling you about," Ash tells him and I give him a timid smile.
What is she planning?
"Audra, this is Finn. Rebekah's older brother," Ash says.
"Pleased to meet you,"I say as he grabs my hand and presses a kiss to the back of it. I cover up my disgust with a smile and try not to grimace as I notice that Ashlyn has left me alone with him. Great.
Days pass and Ash has been spending most of her time with Rebekah while practically forcing me to get to know Finn.
Sure Finn is a nice guy and all but he is so boring. I also really do not like how I'm pretty much a tag-along to Ash and Rebekah.
They never do anything fun. They just talk and whenever Finn and I are together Ash is looking at us like she has never seen a cuter couple.
If she thinks that I want Finn as a husband then she is dead wrong. He's just a friend; a dull and boring friend.
Currently Rebekah, Ashlyn and I are all in the meadow near the village that I just love coming to. Ashlyn and Rebekah are giggling about something while I sit on the ground and try to make a necklace out of flowers and grass like Ash showed me.
For some reason I can only ever make crowns and never necklaces. After a minute or so I giveup and decide to just start making a small bouquet of flowers for Mother.
A little while later I hear footsteps and look up to see a young man around my age walking towards us. He has messy brown hair with mischievous brown eyes and I can see thick muscles straining against his shirt.
"Rebekah, Mother told me to fetch you for the evening meal" he says then sends out a polite greeting to Ash. His voice is smooth and velvety and I can sense myself practically melting like ice in the beginning of spring.
Ash gives him a stiff smile as his gaze flashes down to me.
"Who's this?" he asks while reaching out a hand to help me up.
"I'm Audra Jakobson. Ashlyn's adopted sister," I say shyly as I grab his hand with the one that is not holding my flowers.
"Ashlyn's younger adopted sister," Ash pipes in.
We ignore her.
Warmth spreads through me as well as a slight tingle when our hands touch.
He yanks me to my feet and says "Kol Mikaelson," before kissing my hand that is still in his. I blush and giggle as he winks at me before releasing my hand. He is VERY charming, and much more handsome than Finn too.
And that is chapter one! You don't have to but a review or two would be nice just so I know that people don't hate it.
