"So, this is the place?" a young girl asked. She and her mother were inside their car and heading towards their new home. Both looked almost alike with long blond hair. It's just that girl's hair is straight, her mom's is curly, and instead of blue eyes, the girl had black ones.

"Yes" her mom, around her early thirties, replied.

"It doesn't seem so bad. Have you ever been here on one of your business trips?"

Her mother was quiet for awhile before saying, "I have been here but not on a business trip"

The girl glanced at her. "Really? So why were you here then?"

"I grew up here actually, Jasmine. And after a while, I moved"

"Moved? But why?" Jasmine asked, curiosity in eyes as she tucked a few strands of her hair behind her ears.

Her mother didn't answer.

"Mom?"

"I-"

"We have arrived" a man, from the driver seat, announced, interrupting their conversation.

Jasmine looked out the window and her eyes went wide.

"Cool!" she exclaimed. "That's bigger than our house back in LA" she said as she jumped out of the car, wearing a red halter top, a denim skirt above her knees and high-heeled sandals, and examined their new house. Well, it's more of a mansion since it had more than four floors, including a large-sized swimming pool and a garden.

Her mother appeared behind her.

"Where would you like me to place your luggage, Miss Thorn?" the driver asked while taking out a number of bags from the car. He was wearing a kind of butler uniform with the black tie and such. He looked around in his middle forties and had black hair lined with white.

"Kindly place them in the living room for now, Raymond" Rose replied.

Raymond nodded and proceeded in carrying the bags, three at a time.

Jasmine looked at her mother who had a frown on her face while staring at the surroundings.

"Is something wrong, mom?" she asked.

But Rose shook her head. "It's nothing" she said.

"Can I ask you a question then?"

"What is it?"

"Does our moving here having anything to do with… well… our night time job?"

Rose looked at her before staring at their new house, looking quite lost in thought.

Jasmine blinked. That was the second time her mom didn't answer her. Was something going on?

"Mom-"

"Not totally" Rose finally said. "I told you before, we're only here for the opportunity to be able to spread the company nationwide" she said. "Besides, I don't think our job will be of use here" she added, talking more to herself than to Jasmine. 'Unless of course a new dragon family has taken over…' she thought as she and her daughter headed towards their house.
