HOUSE OF FIRE

My mother used to tell me to live a life filled with adventure and excitement. She always said I needed to look at the bigger picture, never let fear or doubt hold me back, and that when the time comes I should take courage and face the unknown. It never occurred to me that those small words of encouragement would one day set my life on a path I never thought I'd have to one day walk through. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ What would you do if you were suddenly told, your entire life has been a lie. That you have quite a line of people who want you dead for reasons unknown to you, simply because you bear the last name.... Carter. Well, this is my story of how I struggled to overcome my biggest fears.

Chapter 30

I’ve gone and gotten myself into deep, shitting trouble.

Hands placed before me, I bite down on my lower lips as I nervously awaited judgement from Steven.

He gazed at me, seated behind his desk in silence, his hands crossed in front of his chest with a hard penetrating glare. After crawling my way back into the utility closet, imagine my surprise to find my father standing right in front of those doors waiting for me, with a sheepish looking Liam standing a few feets behind.

Now you’d think that would be the end of my problems... Unfortunately, it's not.

Thanks once again to Liam, my video, the very video he used to threaten me is currently being viewed by every elemental within the society. When he realized he couldn’t get back to me after an hour of waiting for a reply, he panicked and hurried his ass over to Steven to tell him what we’d done.
