Chapter 1
The alarm clock awoke me from my wonderful dream that I didn't remember, so I did what any sensible person would do; I threw the damned thing out the window. After counting to 10 in my head, I flopped over on my already-slept-on side. Letting out a groan at both the uncomfortable position I was in and at the sun that wouldn't leave me alone, I turned over in the other direction, praying for at least 10 more minutes of sleep. I just begun to doze off when I felt someone's presence. Sighing deeply, I opened one eye and came face-to-muzzle with one of the most annoying yet gorgeous animals on earth: my husky-wolf furball.
To be honest, calling Alaska a furball would be an insult. His perfectly groomed black and white fur can make a fish jealous. A dead fish at that.
Rising from my four-poster ebony bed with yet another sigh, I shot the poised beauty a glare which he returned. Walking over to my vanity, I squared myself and looked into the Pure Glass. The face that greeted me was one of a stranger.
The same stranger that greets me every morning.
