Wings & Roots

How do you deal with a life you don't want and a future you're terrified of?

Run.

That's what I've planned to do for years; run from this narrow world I was born into. Run from the friends I love, but who bind me to the roots I want to leave behind. 

Run, towards the anonymity I so desperately crave, to a place where no one knows who I am; where no one cares who my family are.

But something happened that changed all of my plans. My best friend, my sister, fell off her pedestal and hit the ground with a crash.

Now I realise I'm not as ready as I thought I was to run from this life and these people.

Maybe I need the roots that I thought were holding me back, that were actually just stopping me from floating away.

I'm a Scion, one of the elite. I was born into this life, but I crave more.

Everything that's happened in the last year has shown me that I need my roots, but I want to spread my wings too.

College, boys, adulthood, it's all calling my name and it's time to figure out who I am.

My name is Emmy Devereaux and I'm so much more than just the daughter of the president of The Doomsday Sinners MC.
