chapter four: May
I was mad at Max. That E guy was very irritating. He caused a lot of tension between all of us. Then while he is trying to leave, Max tells him to stay.
I trusted Max more than I trusted anyone. So I figured that if Max saw something good in him than I should trust him too.
He only knew the names of two of us. He didn't know Sam and Am though. There was a lot he didn't know about us.
Sam was a very tall man with pitch black hair that was sort of long. He always held himself up high so to speak. He was a very strong man and was full of pride.
Am was Max's wife. She had red hair that only went down to her shoulders. Her dark blue eyes partnerd nicely with Max's ice blue eyes. She was a kind young woman who brought out the best in everyone. She mainly hung out with Sam. We all kind of felt like we had to protect her because she was the youngest. Max and I kept a close eye on her at all times.
"Why are you out here?" I asked E. He looked up in shock.
"What do you mean?" He asked.
"Well your a prince from Lies. How did you end up on an island like this?" I figured I would have clarify what I meant when I said Lies.
"Oh, I ran away." Apparently not.
"Why?"
"Wouldn't you?"
"Fair point."
"Why here?"
"I just hopped in a boat and rowed myself to an island. Then when I got here I was attacked and I woke up at the bottom of a river. Then you know the rest." He had no clue who had attacked him. He knew it was werewolf he just didn't know who it was. I did though. There was a reason Sam sounded like he was barking when he talked.
We all had our secrets. However you could easily figure them out with just a gaze into someone's eyes. Sometimes the secrets lie in the color other times you have to look deeper to find what your looking for. Max is very good at that.
"I'm Amber. Max's wife." My little sister stated while she held her hand out to E.
"I'm E." He gently shook her hand and smiled kindly.
"Is that your real name?"
"No. My real name is Edwin. I just go by E because Edwin is a ridiculous name." Am chuckled.
"We all usually go by shorter names too."
"What do you usually go by?"
"My freinds call me Am." He smiled at her. She looked as though she was about the same age as him yet she seemed so young. And E knew it. Max smiled too. He knew something about E no one else knew. He could see something in him that the rest of us didn't.
E and Max had the same colored eyes. E's eyes were just a little brighter. Almost white. That was probably why Max liked him so much. The first thing Max did when he met someone, was he would look into their eyes. It was all about the eyes.
