Before — Cambria Hebert

This is a short story prequel to the Heven and Hell series. It is approx. twenty pages plus bonus material of the first chapter of Masquerade!

What if your life was charmed and everything in it was perfect…
Before.
This is the story of my past. Of what things were like for me when everything was normal. Of what every teenagers life is like. Clothes. Parties. Boys and summer vacation. What's so wrong with that? I liked it. I was happy.
At least I thought I was.
I didn't know that lies and secrets were about to take over my existence. I didn't know that there was someone out there, someone meant for me. I didn't know that I was about to go on a journey, a journey that would lead me to the girl I am today.
This is the story that leads up to one of the worst years of my life. Would I go back and change things? Erase everything that has happened to go back into these moments?
Not a chance.
This is a story of before.
