Those were her colours.
Scars, wounds and tears,
Those were her fate.
Panic, fear and pain,
Were felt upon her entry.
From a an unwanted dog that she was,
A wolf she became.
Not the most ideal main
character energy she carried,
After everything that happened,
with love she was buried.
I have grown up reading a lot of YA fiction. One of my favourite book series is the “Young Elites” by Marie Lu. It does not have movies or a show. Just three books and few simple strong characters. I usually forget the books I have read, but this one has stayed in my mind. The main character had powers that were dark, negative and harmful. She was an unusual main character who did not have a high moralistic ground or a very kind personality. She fought for herself and those she loved. I highly recommend this underrated book series to anyone looking for an anti-hero from the times when such characters were not the norm :)
