Thank you for the review,
My entrance into Society is approaching with astonish speed. And all these hindrances are beginning to anger me greatly. Soon I will not need this family, not if I succeed in getting accepted. But then again, I need some help from a star for this. Maybe I couple of well-placed threats will do someone some good.
One of my sisters is a threat, more than the other. One likes the thought of being an obstacle for me, but this will only happen in her petty little thoughts. She is too weak in mind and will to fight against one as powerful as I.
But the other . . . she has the Mother strength. She does not know it yet, but when she utters words of prayer, the Mother listens. Mother is the only other that can fight with my power. My father didn't know my power was so strong. If he had, he would not have abandoned me with this mere mortal.
It still gives me laughs how this woman thinks she controls me. Herpathetic attempts to weaken me don't faze me in the least. I can make blankets and food appear at will. It does not hurt me.
"Do not try to stop me, Danielle," I whisper into her ear. "I'll take away all you hold dear." I don't think she hears me. Her ears are not sensitive to Other words like her sibling is. She awakes undisturbed.
Belinda, though, I will not hide from. I approach her. She does not believe it. She does not think I will. Then again, she cannot see what I think about every night. I think about skinning her alive and-
Good thing she doesn't know, then, I think gleefully.
The other one. I smell Her on her skin as soon I draw near her. It makes the skin on the back of my neck stand up. I warn her not to try to stop me. She stares at me blankly. I have noticed it lately, the lack of attention she is showing the world. I don't know what has happened, nor do I care. But she might, unconsciously, draw some power against me.
"It'll hurt." That is all I say to the girl. I do not like being near her, not anymore. I used to think she was a friend. Once upon a time. Before I began to hate the Mother. Before Father and Mother died and left me.
It will hurt. I think of it all night.
It will hurt.
I smile.
