Art stood confident, and almost superior to everyone in the room, his eyes flicked towards me for a second. I tried to predict what he'd do next. We never decided this. We never said anything about him posing as one of the People. He crossed a line, if they found out about him, mine and his lives wouldn't be worth living so to speak.
"I am something quite different. I am capable to steal the souls of the people I take life from. I can use their skills, their intelligence, their memories all for myself. It's quite useful really, I'm more than a shape shifter, I'm a soul stealer." Then, much to my horror dear, he began to change shape and voice, naturally. His own sin and flesh seemed to melt like the wax of a candle then fling itself back into place. It looked horrifically painful as his features changed and morphed as he slipped in and out of so many different people, as if they were but costumes. I thought as he changed, all these people, that he's changing into, he's killed. The man I fell in love with, the one I thought was merely a mortal, was actually one of the most violent killers of the People. To tell you the truth Dear, I was scared.
I felt my heart turn crazy under the sudden shock. He'd lied to me. He'd made me trust him. I'd believed everything he'd said. I hate being made a fool of and I don't suffer fools kindly. I looked once more at Art. He was now looking at me with his own eyes and his own smug smile, having finished showing off. I pulled myself closer to Corh, who along with you Dear, is my pillar of strength, we'd gone through too much to not be close. Once again I noticed Art flinch, his charming features slip out of place, as if he was changing it. But all I could concentrate on now was Corh's steady breathing.
So it's all settled. Fredrique, Quinn, and Stuart (I hadn't realised that was his full name) are to come to the island with us, for reasons which are still unknown to Corh and myself. We go in a few days but im dreading those so much Dear, I will have to talk to Art I know it. Dear I'm at a loss. I loved Art and think I still might but I don't know whether or not this is the Art I fell for. What do I do? Go with Corh who will look after me and love me, who I suppose I might one day love in return, or should I go with unpredictable, dangerous soul taker Art, who I don't really know but love so much? I'm not sure about anything anymore, Dear, I'm really not sure.
