~CELINE~ My mother only ever taught me the many ways I could be useful to a person, the many ways I could make up for my... birth. That included, and was not limited to, the act of seduction. She said the only use I could ever have stemmed from my beauty; Kane proved that point. She let my father send me to him because she knew exactly what was going to happen. And now that I thought about it, I realized that was why Kane chose me... he couldn't keep me as a mistress as it isn't allowed when an Alpha is married. My smarts just came as a bonus. My mother's teachings finally came in handy until, of course, she decided to prove to me that she truly was my teacher. I inhaled sharply as I ran the brush down my curls. I couldn't stand my own reflection. I hated my face, my eyes, my skin.
