Chapter 1Chapter 1- Help

How did it end up like this?

How did I even survive this long?

**************************************

"Please stand up and introduce yourself." A man in a blue button-up shirt said.

Another man in his late 30's that had dark brown hair, light brown skin, and blue eyes cleared his throat and said, "My name is Elliot Blackwood and I'm an alcoholic."

As he said that again he could not help but feel a pain in his heart he's made mistakes like anyone else in the world, but his father was an alcoholic and he never wished to be like him.

"Hello Elliot." they all said.

"Is there anything you'd like to share?" The guy in charge asked.

"This is my 12th meeting so far and I've learned a lot." Elliot said.

"Would you like to elaborate?"

"I watch my mother get beat by my father so bad she could no longer walk, whenever I want to see my brother I have to go to his tombstone in the end I left but my mistake was I should've taken my mother and never came back."Elliot said with a heavy heart.

Looking up Elliot saw the saddened faces of the people around him, pity was the main expression while some looked annoyed as they thought he only said it for the attention.

By that point he zoned out lost in his thoughts 'I want to go back, back to the point where I was full of life, back to when I had a whole family, let me right my wrongs and start again .' He thought but knew his prays would get him nowhere.

After the group prayer was over Elliot got called over by the guy in charge and he asked "Would you like me to find you a therapist"

"No sir, I just needed to get those words off my chest that's all I promise" Elliot said.

Once he got outside there were small groups formed as they gathered to talk outside about their own experiences,

Elliot didn't care about socializing with these people and just wanted to leave.

He almost reached his car when he was a dark SUV start to slow down and the passenger car window roll down.

A figure of a gun appeared and everything seemed to have gone in slow motion for Elliot at that point and he froze.

Turning his head he saw a guy a few feet away from them their true target. At that point, he could not help but curse his luck for he knew he wouldn't make it out alive.

Multiple gunshots were heard.

As he was hitting the ground Elliot said the last words.

"Help."

NOTE: cover art is a commission done by Ripcorez a fellow author on here and amazing artist. If you like his work, don't hesitate to reach out to him with a request for a commission of your own Samuel Foster would be turning 18 in two weeks. He grew up in a fairly normal low case family home with his parents and two younger siblings. The thing out of the ordinary was he knew for as long as he could remember he would be getting married at 18 to a girl he never had met before due to a promise his family had made. Lena Scarlet, Princess Scarlet was feared by many, respected and loved by everyone near her. Deadly as she was calm, her one annoyance in life was the arranged married he father decided upon before she was born. Being fiercely independent and trained to protect herself, she never felt the need for a relationship or marriage as she fully capable of taking care of all her needs. However, a promise was a promise and whether either of them liked it or not, their parents were at least going to force them to live together before calling the wedding off. Please give the book a chance. I'm not the greatest of synopsis writers, as I am sure some of you can tell and the book may be slow at first due to the setup and lead in. But I promise it will getting more interesting as it goes along. Scene excerpt from the story: "You didn't happen to think it was important to tell before now?! The princess was furious with the other woman. "I.." She paused for a second to swallow, "I never thought that it would come down to this. I promise though that they wouldn't do anything terrible." "They said the same thing to my father.. but they were wrong. I don't trust anyone's word." The princess replied standing up. The more her anger rose, the darker her eyes got. "You should just be fortunate that I am not my father. Do you know what he did when faced with a similar situation?" with no reply, she continued "He killed almost all of them. You could say it was a massacre. Me, I won't got that far, but if anything happens to him, I will personally kill the person who touches him."
