I slowly, very, very quietly walked through the dark, unfamiliar forest I have decided to cross. This was a shortcut to the pack house from my house and I know my mother and stepfather would never think of looking for me hear. This was Dark Midnight pack's land. From a bird's eye view, my pack, the Dark Moon Pack land was shaped like a bean but the little curve of the bean was part of the Dark Midnight pack which now, I have to cross to get to my pack house. Chug! Chug! Chug! Chug!... I feel my heart beating painfully fast. I was so scared of being caught by the alpha's guards if they ever caught a whiff of my scent. I wanted to reach out to my weak little wolf to have company while I crossed this particular portion of the Dark Midnight Pack's land but decided against it for fear the pack warriors might scent my wolf out. Not so far away, I can see the bright lights where I knew the house of the alpha was located. It was Damon's birthday party. The soon-to-be alpha of the pack and the biggest bully of the school I attended. "Almost halfway now." I said to myself as I caught a whiff of my pack's scent even though my pack's land was much too far away yet. Fixing my backpack which started to fall from my shoulders, I continued walking straight to where I knew my packs' land border was located but then my foot unintentionally stopped moving, seeming to have been rooted to the soft ground as panic and excitement start to swirl in my heart, as I smell the most amazing smell of pine and ocean breeze combined. "Mate." I realize my mate is presently at the alpha house where the soon-to-be alpha is celebrating his birthday. Thankful that I was gifted the sense of smell ten times stronger than any wolf that I could smell a certain scent even from miles away, I resolutely walk faster, determined to reach the border before my scents me out. My weak little wolf traitorously decides to accompany me on my little run from my house, across my nemesis' land, to my pack's pack house which lightly irritates me, as I know this could send my weak scent to my mate with a little wind movement. I was almost at least a few steps to the border when I realize that the beautiful scent of pine and ocean breeze is getting stronger. My mate must have scented me out and has moved from the house, looking for me. Goddess knows what would happen to me if I ever get caught by this pack's territory by any pack member, warrior, or by my nightmare, the soon-to-be-alpha himself. I feel my wolf whining, pleading for me to stay and wait for our mate to find us but with determination, I climb over the barbed wires separating the two pack lands, being careful not to have my clothes or bag entangled to the wires. As I reach the top, I smell that delicious smell getting even stronger and I cross first my right foot then my left over the top of the fence, feeling my heart beating so fast. I drop down from the top and ran to the direction of my pack's pack house just as I hear twigs getting stepped on from the direction I came from. Thank Goddess they will not be able to see me, hopefully, they would not try to climb the barbed wires as I did just to find me. Then I soothe my wolf, reminding her of all the bullying we have had to injure from the alpha and all other students from that pack. I take deep breathes to calm my heart before knocking at the door of the pack house.

LEIA DECEIT

LEIA DECEIT

Leia, a young and vibrant twenty-year-old, had just moved to the bustling city of Seattle to live with her parents, whom she had never met until now. Born into a life of financial struggles, Leia was sent to live with her aunts at birth, while her parents worked tirelessly to make ends meet. But now, with her father's health in decline and her mother forced into prostitution to make a living, Leia found herself in a desperate situation as she came back finally after an accident with her aunt after they treated her badly. She hid her true self from the world, including her new best friend Mia, who came from a life of luxury and excess. Mia's family was everything Leia's was not - wealthy, influential, and respected. As Leia and Mia's friendship blossomed, Leia found herself torn between her loyalty to her new friend and the secrets she kept hidden. By day, she was a bright and ambitious student, but by night, she was forced to sell herself to make ends meet. The shame and frustration of her situation weighed heavily on her shoulders, and she couldn't bear the thought of Mia discovering her true reality. But fate had other plans. One fateful night, Leia found herself in the arms of a man she had never met before - Mia's father, Rael. The encounter was accidental, but the consequences would be devastating. Leia's world was turned upside down as she struggled to reconcile her feelings of guilt and shame with the secrets she kept hidden. Little did she know, her life was about to become even more complicated. Leia stood at a crossroads, torn between revealing the truth to Mia and risking their precious friendship, or continuing her secret affair with Rael, Mia's father. But when she chose to move on, her mother's venomous words cut deep, exposing the harsh realities of her life. Her mother's hatred and resentment towards her stemmed from their impoverished background and Leia's inability to provide for herself. With a newfound sense of desperation, Leia turned to Rael as a means of survival, hiding their relationship from Mia and the rest of the world. But as she became entangled in this web of secrets, she found herself falling for Mia's brother, Dale. The complication was suffocating - Leia was caught between her loyalty to Mia, her desire for Rael, and her growing feelings for Dale. As the truth threatened to surface, Leia's world began to unravel. She was trapped in a cycle of lies and deceit, with no clear escape. Her relationships with the people she cared about most were built on shaky ground, and the consequences of her actions loomed large. Would Leia find a way to break free from this toxic cycle, or would she become forever entangled in the secrets and lies that had come to define her life? Mia's eyes blazed with fury as she uncovered the truth about Leia's deceit. The betrayal cut deep, and their once-unbreakable bond was shattered into a million pieces. Mia's hurt and anger transformed her into Leia's worst enemy, and she vowed to make her pay for her treachery. In a desperate attempt to escape the chaos, Leia made a choice that would haunt her forever. She forsake Dale, the man she truly loved, and agreed to marry his father, Rael. Forsaking her friendship, she’ll do anything for money. As she stood at the altar, gazing into Rael's eyes, Leia's heart screamed in protest. She was sacrificing her true love and happiness to secure a future that felt like a prison sentence. Dale, the man she had denied, looked on in anguish, his eyes filled with tears of sorrow and betrayal. And as Leia became Mia’s step mother, it was like the two was drawn into a battle ground and even when she was offered money by Mia and Dale to leave their father. She refused since she found out that at last that she enjoyed the man’s company and wouldn’t bear the thought of leaving the man. She became the girl who sacrificed her true love for kindness and waited till the man died before building her own life with her inheritance.

Hester as the hero of the novel: A discussion
1 answer

Hester is indeed the hero. In a society that is quick to condemn her, she stands tall. The scarlet letter she wears, which is meant to be a mark of shame, she turns into a symbol of her own identity. She doesn't hide away but faces the world. She also challenges the Puritan norms in a way. For example, she questions the strict moral code that led to her being ostracized in the first place. This makes her a hero as she is a rebel against an unjust system.

Hester is a hero in the novel. Consider the fact that she has to deal with the hypocrisy of the Puritan society. While she is publicly shamed for her adultery, there are many hidden sins within the community that are not dealt with in the same way. But Hester doesn't become bitter. She tries to make the best of her situation. She does good deeds in the community, like helping the sick and the poor. Her actions speak louder than the scarlet letter she wears.
