Maya's point of view
We laid in silence for a while until I questioned her, "You do know I'm not going to end up with him, right?"
The environment shifted, I could sense the tension brewing in the air but what could she do? I'm sure Isabella always had a feeling that a relationship between me and her father was impossible.
"So you're going for Eden?"
The question was abrupt and I was so shocked my eyes widened to the size of saucers. I don't remember telling her about my plans, how could she have guessed correctly?
"How did you know that, " I inquired.
"Someone who's had a taste of power doesn't exactly give up; the feeling is additive" came her simple reply which left me speechless.
I wasn't sure of what to think anymore but one thing crossed my mind, this girl was an alien. Was it humanly possible to be this smart because I doubted genes had something to do with this issue anymore?
