“Every saint has a past, and every sinner has a future.” – Oscar Wilde

Juliet From the first moment I saw him, I knew he was it for me… even if he didn’t. The most beautiful boy I have ever seen has become my obsession and yet I am perfectly fine with it. I was born with a warm heart… but a strong one at that. Scarlett They call me a bitch; they say I’m cruel, vindictive, and evil beyond repair… and they’re right. Frankly, I don’t find anything wrong with that. I believe people should be more like me. Life is so much easier when you shut off all the emotions that cause you to care. I

am simply a woman who gets what she wants and what I want is for everyone to know their place.

Hugo

Most people feel sorry for my father. Jonathan Mandrake. Wife and son are dead. Remaining sons might as well be dead. One is autistic and the other is the devil. If you haven’t guessed by now, I’m not the twin with autism. That’s my brother, August. We are a

mirror image of each other but due to bad luck, we are complete opposites. My father is a prick—don’t let the smile fool you. My brother is one of the few people I tolerate and like. The only person who’s ever really understood me is Scarlett. The closest thing I have

to a parent is Ms. Eleanor, my temporary guardian. When wealthy parents don’t want to leave their children home alone to embarrass the family name, they send them to her, not caring that her head is full of nothing but butterflies, rainbows, Bloody Mary’s, and

young Latin men.

“Beautiful, isn’t it?” I know his voice already. I smile to myself, but quickly I have to mask it before turning around to face him. Hugo steps outside through the gold curtains. He still has on his glasses. The white shirt that shows his lean and slightly muscular body and he doesn’t have any shoes or socks on. Nice feet for a man. Only one other man I know has nice feet—my dad. “Yes, it is.” He stands next to me as I lean on the stone balcony, looking down. He leans over too with his arms crossed and his biceps flexed, revealing how muscular he really is. “So,” he begins to speak after a pause. “Ready to run for the hills yet?” “No,” I say adamantly. “I’m beginning to love my decision to stay here already.” “Really?” “Yes. So far, everyone is nice and quite funny.”
“Yes, this house is pure comedy.” “You’re quite hilarious too, ya know.” “Not really.”
 I laugh a little. “Yes, you are.” “Well, you’re certainly attracted to me.” 
I arch my brow and stand straight, my body facing him completely. He follows my movement. “You really are full of yourself.” “Only confident.” “Well Hugo, yes, you are very handsome... but your personality can be harmful to it.” “That’s a first.” “And you are not my type.” “There really isn’t a type when it comes to sex.” At this point, nothing Hugo Mandrake can say would leave me speechless, so bring it. “Bold move, Mandrake,” I slyly grin. “Are you a virgin?” I laugh because I just can’t help it. “Um, well what do you think?” “Lesbian?” “Again... What. Do. You. Think?” He sighs and even through the sunglasses, I feel him evaluating me.
