Deleted Scene #1:
~Mycah~
Holding all
the broken pieces of the girl's sculpture, I wandered down the halls of her
high school to find an empty room. It did not take me long. I could hear and
feel which rooms were occupied without even having to look.
I quietly
closed the door and locked it, looking through the window one last time to
ensure sure no one was coming. I sat at a desk and began putting the pieces
back together.
Firstly, I
had to fix the shattered pieces. They weren’t broken as badly as it sounded. It
was mostly several big pieces that had broken off the main body and then those
separate pieces were split apart again. I held the pieces together and slowly
waved my hand over the seams. I could feel the molecules shifting and vibrating
against each other as I focused on them melding back together. I did that to
each piece and then held them up to their prospective places on the tree. I
again glided my hand over each crack and seam, feeling the molecules expanding
and reforming until it was all back to its perfect lovely self. My heart soared
in triumph - you couldn’t even tell it had been broken. On the bottom I saw she
wrote her signature, but I couldn’t quite make it out.
I had to
find the art room.
It didn’t
take me long to find it either but I had to wait until the class that was
currently using the room to let out. I waited around the corner for the bell to
ring. I silently watched the students file out, including the instructor. I
worked to obscure my presence from any who passed me.
As soon as
it was empty, I walked in and set her sculpture on a table where all the rest
of the student’s clay projects sat.
I slowly
walked along side it looking at the other sculptures. None of them were
anywhere near as brilliant as the weeping willow tree that girl made. Her piece
stood out like a sore thumb – but in a good way.
I could feel
a smile automatically pull itself onto my face as I turned to leave the room.
But before I could, my whole body tightened and I was stopped in my tracks.
There – on
the wall – was a painting. A magnificent painting. It was a dragon painted with
the most beautiful use of colors I’d ever seen. I was enraptured by it for the
longest time. It looked so real, so lifelike.
I had an obsessive
fascination with dragons ever since I could remember. When I was just a kid, I
used to dream of flying on the back of my own dragon soaring through the skies.
This was by far the most amazing artist’s perception of a dragon I had ever
seen. I noticed that in the bottom right corner is the same signature I saw on
the bottom of the weeping willow sculpture. My heart stopped. It was her
painting.
I realized
my mouth was hanging open from shock and forced myself to close it. The sign
below said her name was Nariella Woodlinn, and not surprising in the least, it
won 1st prize in an Art contest.
“What a beautiful
name," I couldn’t help but whisper out loud. All I could think about were
those deep violet eyes and how I bloody lost myself in them. They were mesmerizing.
My intrigue about this girl was so highly piqued that before I even really
thought of it, I had already decided what I was going to do. I knew who she
was.
And I would
protect her.
Deleted Scene #2:
~ Mycah ~
It was an
addiction. I tried my hardest to not give in, but I couldn’t help it. I kept
getting drawn in. Every time I looked, my resolve to abstain would waver. This
was madness! Why couldn’t I control myself? The object of my desire was just
sitting there, looking so…yummy!
I couldn’t
keep my eyes away, and I could feel my resolve slipping from me second after
second, until finally I decided with all my heart to give in.
I smiled as
I picked up the object of my desire and purchased the butter cream frosted
cupcake. I had tried my hardest not to give in to my sweet tooth, but seeing
the creamy frosting lightly gathered on top of that moist sinful looking
cupcake, I knew it was mine from the start. What
can I say? I laughed to myself.
It was an
addiction.
I hope that you enjoyed and stayed tuned book 2, Sweet Escape, will be coming in 2013. No release date is set as of yet.
