Dive into a world where ancient legends collide with modern life, and discover the truth behind their extraordinary destiny. But beware, not all secrets are meant to be uncovered, and not all protectors are what they seem.

Everything was gold. The huge chandelier dangling from the ceiling refracted light off of clear cut diamonds and flooded the ballroom with a golden haze. The walls were painted liquid gold, as well as the golden tablecloths at each table where some of the partygoers were gossiping at. The confetti, which was scattered all over the tile floor, was glittering gold.

At the very top of the staircase, a young girl wearing a plastic gold crown on top of her platinum blond hair made her entrance and looked down on everyone. Her glamorously gold dress fluttered around her legs and attracted everyone's attention. It was Cassie Aster's eighteenth birthday party and she wanted everything to be perfect.

I waited in the wings as she descended the stairs. We met up when she reached the bottom. "You look amazing!" I said.

"I know, right," she smirked then gave me a once over, "Nice dress." I was wearing one of her old dresses that she didn't want anymore. It was a plain silver dress with sheer straps and the faintest hint of sparkle. It was much simpler than her sparkling ballgown.

"Let's get this party started with a round of tequila," she grinned devilishly.

"Mom and Dad will kill you if—"

"If they ever find out, which they won't. I mean, would it kill me if I drank just one glass, the birthday girl's entitled to have some fun at her own party." She gestured with her hand to follow as she headed to the bar.
