Chapter 2 - 1

In a place far away, east of China,a young girl is seen playing around her family's courtyard. The young girl is Elena and also the current heiress of the Qin family. Since young Elena has been loved and protected by everyone in the family especially due to her unrivalled intelligence as her father believes that she is likely to inherit his business empire and provably take it to a whole new level in the world market so he often tries to be a bit strict on her but everyone knows how much he dotes on his daughter." Sir, all is prepared. She has already arrived," a guard reported to Dylan Qin, who is Elena's father. Dylan nodded at this before smiling." Let's go and welcome her. Get somebody to dress up my dear daughter so that we don't keep her waiting."

Elena's father Dylan was a middle aged man with a well built and robust body. His hair was neatly trimmed and he had green eyes,sword-shaped brows,hook like nose and a bow shaped moustache that gave him a special charm. To Dylan, his daughter was his life and the only thing he valued more than his wife and business empire. Even though he is acknowledged as part of the one percent of the high income earners in the whole of China and internationally, he always made sure to keep a modest and honest personality. His wife,Hazel Qin, was to arrive today from Europe where she had travelled for business and personal reasons a few weeks ago. Dylan never involved himself in his wife's issues as he trusted her and had blind faith in her. He gave her the freedom she needed and never tied her down with family responsibilities.

The family of two left the house and headed to the airport with Elena being excited hearing about her mother's return. Hazel was a middle aged woman provably still stuck in her late thirties and was debating whether to finally cross to forty. She had a medium height ,long dark hair, well proportioned body and a hour glass shape that most nen would admire. She always maintained a smile on her face. One that would never fade especially with a loving husband and a beautiful daughter that made their lives interesting. Elena had probably inherited her purple eyes from her mother and also her beautiful looks. As the only child Elena was doted upon by the two couples to the point where they had no plans of giving birth to another child soon. After picking up Hazel, the family of three spent the whole day together. Being an holiday,the family of three spent it together so as to compensate for the time Elena spent in School since they were always busy in such times." Dad,Audry has a younger brother. I want one as well. Why don't you buy one for me?" Elena asked innocently causing her parents to start at her with a smile. Her mother avoided her father's gaze." Where did she tell you her mother bought her a brother?" Hazel asked with a smile . Elena thought for a while before she hurriedly answered with her shining purple eyes staring at her mother." She said her mother bought her brother at the hospital," Elena answered.

Hazel and Dylan stared at each other and smiled. Dylan carried Elena in his arms with a smile." Princess, you see you cannot buy a little brother," Dylan said." Why is that so?" Elena asked innocently as she scratched her head lost in thought. Hazel saw this and couldn't hold back her laughter. Elena was too cute in such a posture especially when making such weird looks." You see,babies are made and not bought just like we made you," Hazel replied ." I understand now," Elena said as she stared at her mother's flat tummy." What are you so curious about?" Hazel asked when she saw her daughter's gaze." Mommy,Audry's mother had a big tummy like this and now it is this small. Why is that?" Elena asked as she used her fingers to demonstrate. When the duo heard this they could no longer hold back their laughter especially seeing their daughter demonstrating . This caused Elena to bury her face in her father's chest.

"Mom,dad why don't you make me a little brother?" Elena finally asked with her small mosquito voice with her face still buried in her father's chest. "Then you should start sleeping in your own room as from tomorrow," Dylan answered immediately with a mischevious grin which Hazel recognised. How could she not know what he was thinking?"Sure dad. I will sleep in my room tonight," Elena said. This was what Dylan loved her daughter for. She rarely questioned his instructions. Since that day Elena started sleeping in her own room while her parents were of course busy making a little brother for her. Each morning since then the couple woke up to a storm of questions from their innocent daughter who would always be staring at her mother's tummy with eagerness.

Days turned to months and months to years. Elena's mother finally got pregnant and gave birth to a baby boy making the family feel complete and full. The boy was named Michael. Elena loved and doted on her dear brother and always made sure to protect him. It was funny each and every time her parents found her babysitting her dear brother. As years want by, Elena is now fourteen years old and so is Lenox who is finally existing the Wolf forest. Elena is now a beauty and has started showing signs of maturity. She is now a flower blossoming from a child to a young girl with her twin peaks now developing. Dylan is now more strict with her than before as he doesn't want to see his daughter fall into the hands of the wrong company. He has gone as far as to restrict most of her freedoms . At this time, Elena is staring at herself in the mirror in her room. She is no longer as naive and innocent as before and she even shows signs of maturity. Elena barely has friends her age mostly because she feels they are not that worthy anymore as her IQ is higher than those of her age bracket. Her mother is definitely her best friend as she hides nothing from her.
