who you really are...
Personality: Selena may be twenty eight years old but the girl loves to have fun. If there’s a party she’ll want to be there and cause some sort of diversion to gain a little attention. That doesn’t mean she is an attention seeker but she isn’t a wallflower when there’s fun and interesting people around. She’s very quirky and bubbly around people which help her make friends very easily. There is hardly a mean bone in her body which tends to leave her in an almost complete state of happiness, not the naive happiness about the world being perfect but she just has a positive outlook on life.
Even while at work around the palace, she knows that there are nasty nobles that like to spread rumors or blackmail each other but she tries to give everyone at least one chance to be nice. The best thing to do is to play nice with Selena even if you’re only acting fake to her face because if she feels like a person, lycan, or vampire is trying to get snappy with her over anything she will bite back. The woman isn’t as free loving as she might appear. Typically while she’s working, she won’t be spotted far from any sort of music since she finds playing something helps pass the time and makes cleaning so much more fun than it really is.
Likes:
- Parties
- Sleeping in
- Music…all types
- Dancing whenever she gets the chance which is mostly while she’s working
- Her family, don’t mess with them or you’ll see a dark side to Selena
Dislikes:
- Messing up while working
- People that take everything in life too serious
- Stairs – she’s tired of running up and down them all day long
- Being questioned about her sexual experiences – that’s her personal business
- Sitting still for too long
Strengths:
- Selena has an uncanny knack for finding any item no matter where it was placed. If someone lost an earring two nights ago, she’ll be able to locate it within ten minutes of looking.
- Working in a palace for all these years have done wonders for Selena’s legs, they are toned and lean and just beautiful. She isn’t as fast as any lycan or vampire, but the girl can hold her own in a race.
- She has a high tolerance for males and even females that think they can boss people around. After growing up around lycans, she got to the point where she mostly tunes them out if they start getting out of hand.
Weaknesses:
- Sweets of any kind, she will practically do anything for sweets be it candy or dessert
- Little kids – how can anyone resist them? Selena sure can’t. In fact, she’s very fond of spoiling the Duke and Duchess daughters by helping them hide from their tutors.
- People that can make her laugh – Selena loves laughter so if someone can make her laugh and make her feel more at ease she’s more willing to spend time or lend them a helping hand.

History: Born the middle child of the Torres family, Selena grew up protected by her two older siblings and protective of her younger ones. Her parents weren’t rich, but the family wasn’t poor in the least. Isabella was a math teacher and even tutored some of the nobility’s children in the palace. Jared was one of the best known jewelers on the island, creating many of the custom rings for nobility and anyone that wanted a special something for their love. Coming from a strong line of Hispanic descent, the Torres Family was built on a strong foundation of catholic beliefs. However, over the years they seemed to have relaxed many of their beliefs. The only one Selena really holds true to is no sex before marriage…not so much marriage as love. The woman isn’t putting out without knowing her partner is serious. Closest to age with Katherine, the two of them were always together growing up, never that far from each other side. The bond was only reinforced by having to share a room in their family’s small house.
Growing up, Selena learned the meaning of hard work and the amount of effort her parents took in making a good life for her family. Whenever she wanted something, her mother would tell her to get a job to pay for any little knick knacks she wanted that weren’t food and clothes her parents gave to her. After a little pleading, her mother put in a good word for her at the palace as a servant when she was fourteen. She mostly stayed out of the way of everyone by only sweeping and mopping rooms when no one was around.
When Katherine was twenty four and Selena was twenty three, Katherine was bitten by a lone wolf that had gone mad during a full moon. For weeks, Selena and her sister tried to find ways for her to remain in control of the beast, but it seemed that was a secret only older, wiser lycans knew. With no other option, Selena took her sister to the court and pleaded before King Vaan for him to have someone help her sister adjust to the change. The simple request was granted and a guard was picked by the Captain to watch over and guide Katherine.
The year Selena turned twenty six, Angela fell in love with a vampire when she was twenty, being raised on an island that was found on the supernatural it wasn’t that bizarre but it took another year before her mate finally caved in and changed her. Which made family reunions a little stressful as Katherine had fallen in love with the lycan guard and they had married. For the most part, the two males tried to get along for the sake of their wives but Selena saw the effort that both of them had to put in to contain their annoyance at the other species.
Now twenty eight years old, Selena still works at the palace as a servant since the pay has only increased over her fourteen years of working there. However, she can’t help but feeling that something is coming to disturb her daily routine of managing the suites in her section of the palace.
