GRAVES OF OUR RUIN
chapter one ; ghosts of Eloise past- present day -
HER heals clocked against the marble floor as the smell of books and the sound of chatter gave her a sense of home. She gave a smile to the guard and went to clock in, noticing her new clumsy friend wasn't there yet as per usual. Eloise tried to hide a frown as disappointment and worry crept into the back of her mind, hearing he skipped out on his date with Dylan made her heart quicken in pace.
"He never showed?" Eloise asked clipping her pin on in the break room.
"I wouldn't had exactly told him to delete my number if he did now would i?" Dylan retorted as she stormed away with a huff.
One side of her was upset for her friend, and the other jumped for joy at the failed date possibly opening the door for her. Oh shut up Eloise, you're embarrassing yourself, she said to herself.
"Still obsessing over the one human, Eloise?" The goddess said in a taunting manner.
"Oh be quiet, aren't you the one who told me to keep eyes on him?" Eloise responded as she turned to look at the scorpion woman across the room.
"I said Marc Spector, not the trembling buffoon who took a month to even look you in the eye."
"Well until mr Spector reveals himself I'll take the one with social anxiety, now if you excuse me I have a seven thirty tour to get to." With that Eloise walked away annoyed with the situations at hand. Her new friend disappeared and the one man who's the key to her revenge is no where to be found, all she wanted was a cup of tea to calm her nerves.
