Venus Cottage

*Selena walked into her new home. She had to pay for it with her money left to her from her family. They had been murdered and she was all that was left. She clolsed the door and went to her bed in the corner. She lit incense to calm her nerves. She had never been alone before and she was scared. She saw her cat, Aphrodite, come from the other room.* "Hello precious, all well with you today? Did you catch any mice?" *A single tear ran down Selena's cheek.*

Selena woke up in the early hours just after dawn. She silently crept out of her bed and went into her small kitchen outside. It was a chilly morning and she had her warm cloak around her and her hood up. She gathered some herbs and started to make breakfast. She always put herbs in her cooking...especially garlic, it's good for the heart.
