The Glare is where dreams come true. Itโ€™s where Iโ€™ve always dreamed of going to become a dancer. Thatโ€™s all Iโ€™ve ever wanted; to just dance. And the fact that Iโ€™m now not allowed because of things out of my control really pisses me off. You see, I grew up as a human. In a little deprecating town living off rations and shared water. I grew up learning how to survive in a world infested with war. I thought I knew how to survive. I was taught to hate and fear all those above us, because we were bottom of the ladder and thatโ€™s just how it was. But above all, I was taught to loathe the worst of them all; the fanged ones. The bloodsuckers. They run the Glare. They are top of the ladder. Still, I had hoped that one day Iโ€™d get to go to the big city and make my dreams come true. But when secrets and lies Iโ€™ve been fed all my life came to the surface, I watched as everything I knew and understood came crumbling down around me. And dreams were smashed to pieces. All I want to do is dance. But instead, my brother and some bloodsuckers swooped in and took me on the run โ€“ to protect me. Thatโ€™s what they said. Thatโ€™s what he promised. F*cking Kingston. Messing with my head and heart. He dared to defy his own kind when making promises to keep me safe.
