Chapter One

"When I tell you to push you need to push!" I yell at him.

"All right! All right!" he yells back.

Breathing heavily, I let my body rest for a little while until the next burst of energy to start again. I hear his breathing even out a little bit. I look at him as he looks at me. His pale blue eyes shine with excitement.

"You ready?" he asks.

"Yeah...Okay...Lift!" I yell, picking up the chest again. "Push!"

He pushes as I pull on the huge oak chest. We almost have it through the small door way when I hear a snap, crash, and I go tumbling to the floor. I look at the floor by my feet where the handle I was pulling on lays. I jump up and grab it.

"Bloody thing broke!" Savion, my twin brother, shouts from outside the door.

"He's going to kill me!" I shriek. "Go get Gabriel or Johnathan or both."

Savion runs down the hall to get one or both of our older brothers. My name is Allison Selene Moore, but everyone calls me Alice. Savion Apollo Moore is my twin brother. Our grandmother is Greek so our mother named us after Greek Gods.

Gabriel and Johnathan are our half brothers. Their mother died in child birth trying to give them a sister. Unfortunately, the baby girl died a day later. Gabriel and Johnathan were not excepting of father remarrying. But they soon changed their minds when they saw how happy Mother made him.

While Mother was giving birth to Savion and me she had some difficulties. No one knew what was going on when she started screaming again after giving birth to Savion. Gabriel and Johnathan didn't want to lose another mother to child birth, so as everyone else was cleaning up Savion, they helped Mother give birth to me. They were surprised that they almost lost another mother to a sister. Mother told me that giving birth to me was the hardest part of that night.

I became the favorite of all my brothers, even Savion. My brothers took me everywhere when Mother and Father had to work. I played with our Lord's son when they had to work too. The Lord's son's name is Gavin Alexander. We became great friends; Savion even became friends with Gavin. Gavin, Savion, and I were known as the Three Musketeers around the castle.

But recently things have changed. Gavin has been to busy to talk to me since his mother told him he had to marry some Scottish lord's daughter. The wedding is in a couple days and all the guests are arriving. A Scottish lord named Green arrived today with his sons. The chest I broke belongs to one of his sons. There is a rumor going around the castle that the Green's are very violent and that is why I am freaking out about the chest.
