Rayvn was very beautiful; in fact, she was the most beautiful woman in all of Willowshire. She had everything she could possibly want; all the money in the world, all the latest trends in fashion, suitors asking for just a bit of her time left and right. But all that really mattered was her beauty. Rayvn had pristine pale skin, free of any blemishes, deep violet eyes with which every man fell in love with and every girl would kill for and she had the most beautiful snow white hair, always soft and silky to the touch that cascaded down her shoulders and front perfectly.
Rayvn was not happy with everything she had though. She was not happy with her little Audi Coupe, her top of the line iPhone 6, having all of her favorite, very expensive, sushi at her beck and call, nor all her suitors calling on her. No, she was not happy with any of this all because of one other woman in Willowshire; Jane. Jane was also very beautiful, enough so to be a threat to Rayvn's status. She had long, soft ebony hair, mesmerizing emerald green eyes that caused many to become transfixed and then she had beautiful, perfectly sun-kissed skin. Jane also had many suitors just as Rayvn did.
One day in the heart of Willowshire, Rayvn was walking around with one of her many suitors. This suitor in particular was one of her favorites. He was very handsome, funny, polite, and he could keep up with Rayvn and all her antics and not be intimidated by her personality. Rayvn enjoyed his company and never denied him of having some of her time. Currently, they were taking a stroll through the park, laughing at a story her suitor was telling. All was going well until Rayvn had spotted Jane sitting on a park bench talking with a young man with crimson red hair and captivating golden eyes. Rayvn couldn't help but feel angry at seeing this. She didn't like the fact that Rayvn had any suitors at all.
Rayvn hadn't realized she had stopped walking and was frowning in Jane's direction until her own suitor called her name.
"Rayvn? What's wrong?"
She started, "Hmm? Oh, nothing. I was just wondering who that man over there is."
It was partially the truth. Rayvn had never seen that man with the strange eyes and red hair. She was genuinely curious.
"Come on," she said, grabbing her suitor's arm and starting towards the bench where Jane and the strange man were at, "I want to meet that man."
Her suitor just sighed, "Alright, Rayvn."
Once she reached them, she stopped and gave the most polite smile she could and extended her hand towards the young man.
"Hello, I'm Rayvn Kirkland. And you are?" she inquired.
The man regarded her coolly, golden eyes flashing. A couple beats of silence later, he smirked at her.
"Ah, yes. Rayvn Kirkland. The most beautiful woman in Willowshire. At least on the outside that is."
Rayvn's smile slipped from her face and her hand fell back to her side as she scowled at the man.
"What do you mean by that?" she demanded.
The man just chuckled and stood swiftly, moving towards Rayvn, gripping her arm tightly.
"You'll find out soon enough," the man whispered to Rayvn, "in the meantime, why don't you come with me so we can discuss our... upcoming contract?"
Without awaiting her reply, the man began to walk away with Rayvn in tow. He is stopped though by Rayvn's suitor who had roughly grabbed the man's arm.
