THE SECOND BORN'S CURSE

Almathea Bastete is the second-born child of her family. At the age of five, she was abandoned by her parents and thrown to the most desolate place in the house to keep her a secret. In this society where the birth of a second child is illegal, Almathea is supposed not to exist as she should have been killed upon her birth. Her parents do well in hiding her, however, when she turns seventeen, her parents have to make the decision to let her go for her safety and their own. Will she discover why second-born children are shunned in their society and bring back the harmony between the children born second and the rest of the world? What about the underlying danger that is lurking in the shadows, threatening to bring about the end of the world? Do they have the courage to face it all?

SHOW

Lexine and the girl stopped in front of a door a few moments later. There was the sound of something crashing on the other side of the door, which made Lexine jump back slightly in shock.

The girl that had been leading her turned her head slightly and smiled at Lexine. "I apologize in advance if there is a mess. Y-you don't need to be wor-worried, though. M-miss. Leilani also brought your fr-friends and said that you would be taking the p-p-pictures with them. If there is any problem, you can w-wait a little with them, can you not?"

The slight stutter that the girl had made it seem that she would cry if she was bullied in the slightest way. Therefore, Lexine gave her a small smile, "Alright." She hadn't noticed it at first though.

They walked into the room after Lexine assured the girl that she would not be angry even if they found that the whole set was a mess. With trembling hands, the door was pushed open.
