Natalie's POV

"Hey, Natalie! My name's Dex. Welcome to Everglen!" Dex called. Dex had an oval yet rounded face, with a slightly defined chin, sweet smile, and loose jawline. High cheekbones outlined his face and dimples surrounded his lips. His bright blue periwinkle eyes shined brighter than the striking towers around us. They were evenly spaced apart medium sized, but quite round, similar to an owl's eyes shape, yet not as extreme. Dex had blonde hair with streaks of strawberry pink and faded ruby red blended subtly through his blonde hair. Why was I here? Where were our parents? Who are these people? I tried to distract myself by observing various things.

"Which is actually my house! Sorry," He faced his attention toward me. Fitz exclaimed, holding out his hand. I shook it. He was the dude with chestnut hair whom I suspect likes Sophie... Cool.

"What's wrong with me introducing her?" Dex asked, with an offended look on his face.

"Because it sends the wrong impression! You've only been here, like, twice!"

"You invited me!"

"Sophie did the first time; NOT me!"

"So you're blaming her?"

"Of course not!"

"Yeah, you never would."

"What's that supposed to mean?"

They continued arguing while I looked around and explored Everglen.

"Hi…" I looked around with eagerness in my eyes. Everglen seemed like a palace to humans. With its crystal structure and beautiful view of the sparkling cerulean sea, the mansion had ravishing reflections and natural light practically echoed throughout. There were roses, alliums, daisies, and tulips surrounding the tall, graceful hills.

"Why did we choose to meet here?" I stuttered.

"My mom is part of theee- a group that can help us. Biana found out. Oh, and she's Fitz's younger sister." Dex responded. Biana had shimmering teal eyes and dramatic dark brown hair that fell in soft waves around her neck. Her eyebrows were long and thin, a simple arch shape. The bridge of her nose was short yet elegant and led to perfectly placed, almost heart-shaped, lips. She appeared and disappeared as she casually strutted across the room and I couldn't stop wondering whether I was hallucinating or that I'm becoming crazy.

"Don't worry. She's a Vanisher. She does that all the time without noticing, " Dex informed me.

"What are you doing Sophie?
