The Hybrid Daughter Prologue
I never imagined life could turn and twist the way it has over the last decade. I was overjoyed from day one when my mother officially accepted my new stepfather Hunter. However, I kept oh having this nagging feeling that something was off, there was a secret neither were telling me.There were days where he would disappear, and mom never hinted where he had gone. He always came back, and that made me happy. Mom would look worried when he would come back, I tried asking her but, she said "You would not understand, this is adult business beyond comprehension". As if that would keep my curiosity at bay?! She should know that I have always been a curious mind, this is why I had grand dreams of attending Cambridge to become a Journalist. I enjoyed a thrilling hunt for news.As the years passed, I had never seen my mother so happy. Also, as the years passed, I was starting to feel different from my friends, I did not know what is happening to me. It felt like someth

I stare out the windows of this cafeteria, another day in this luck luster of a school. Another year, and I will graduate. I wish Hunter could have sent me to the private school which I wanted but, my mother said no, she did not want to rely on his money. I feel like my brain is not getting any work out here. I know how smart I am, I have been offered the honor roll several times but, I do not want to brag, and being a part of the honors club would be. Those kids love to parade around as if they own the school, and everyone else is useless nobodies that lack brains. The only person who I like in that club is my best friend Barbara, she is humble like me, and just uses the club to better her chances at college acceptance.I wait at the table for barbara to enter the cafeteria, I am feeling restless. my mind is too unoccupied, as I try not to think about my Spanish class coming up I start to feel a presence again in my mind. "Molly, Molly!" God, I am hallucinating a

That class felt like it was the longest class of my bloody life. I am so thankful that the week passed by quickly. Finally, my torture in the room is over and I do not have to deal with that fucking teacher anymore. All of the looks, he gave me, the caresses on my hand when he would hand me my submitted work. I still cannot forget the way he spoke my name, and how he would watch my every turn. I remember one time while passing him in the hall, I swear I felt his hands caress the side of my thigh, just above my knee which was covered by my skirt. It sent shivers down my spine, and not in a good way! I remember my last day of class what he said. "So, Ms. Fawns it is finally the summer" I sighed "Yes, it is, why did you ask me to stay after? Did I do something wrong?" he smiled "Not at all, I just wanted to see you before you left for the year, I will miss being able to have in my class since you will be in college next year," he said with a frown. I did not miss the way he sai

I am so excited for the weekend, it is the day that I will finalize attend Cambridge University.Two more weeks, and I will graduate from High School! Just as I am about to read my copy of Whithering Heights, I hear the doorbell ring. I race down the stairs, judging by the time of the day it is, it has to be the postman."Hello, miss," the man says. "Hello Mr. Porter, do you have news for me?" he reaches into his bag "Why I believe there is a letter here". I tell him that I have been expecting a letter for the honors program concerning my nomination on Valedictorian. I finished school ahead of everyone else so, the principal said that I would not be required to attend but, keep a watchful eye on the postman to receive a notification.I thank Mr. Porter for delivering our letters and head back into the house.

We got home a little after six in the evening, dad and I met mom in the dining hall. She was chewing on her thumb, and we wondered what was happening. She never did this unless she was anxious. "Luci, what is wrong?" Hunter asked. She did not seem to notice us standing there, she straightened up when her gaze fell on us, and a pleasant smile displayed on her face "Oh, I did not hear you get home, nothing is wrong, I was just worried about where you were" Hunter and I stare at her "Did you not see the note that I left you?" I ask her, I know I left one on her desk. She seems to widen her eyes briefly, I must have missed it. Hunter and I feel a little dubious, she is obviously lying but, neither of us questions her.Hunter wraps his arms around her, "actually, I took Molly out for the day" her eyes widen "Why?" I do not understand her reaction. "I received my award letter from the school, I won Valedictorian" Mom runs to me, and gives me a big hug. "Congratulations Ba

Life feels like it is just getting started, and I cannot wait! I see my friends as we arrive at the school and head into the school to ready myself for the ceremony which is my rite of passage.

Not even he could understand why she pushed her family away. He didn't know her past, she never talks about it. He never really asked cause he wanted to respect her privacy however, a part of him did wonder if she ever had a family. Now, he knows, she chose to cut them from her life. The sad and shocking part was, they did not know and did not understand why. Both the Grandfather sat in the room, not knowing where to begin. "I think introductions should be made," Hunter said.
