After fifteen minutes of wandering around the hospital I finally found where Jason was. They said he didn't need a blood transfusion, he received a drip with antibiotic. No one could comprehend why he became unconscious since his wound was less severe than anyone expected. I was the only one who understood his condition completely. He was that way because of me, because I didn't finish healing his injury. I bet that if I did, he would have woken up right away.

Jason was put in a nice looking single room, I bet that his family had something to do with it. No one would dare to place a member of prestigious Donell family somewhere he might have felt uncomfortable. Much to my surprise, I was alone when I walked inside. I expected there would be at least some other person worried about him, yet he was alone. Nonetheless, I thought that explaining this situation to the member of his family would be troublesome, I wished I could avoid it if possible…

I leaned out onto the h

    A normal human being probably should go home and rest after experiencing what I did, but I headed straight to the office. Preparing the first episode for emission was my responsibility. Besides, there were already editors working on the footage, precutting single takes so that we could make the final decision together. My job wasn't too complicated, yet if there was anything wrong with the final version of the episode, I would be the one who'd take the blame for it. Additionally, the fact that the CEO acted all hostile towards me, left me no room for error, although I kept wondering if he would actually fire me, if I messed things up… Certainly, I was not eager to find that out.It was 7 PM when I walked back to TVM's headquarters. I just received a message that the editing team still needed an extra hour to prepare the recorded material. On the way to my office, I kept swaying on my feet. In other's eyes I must have resembled a zombie mumbling softly “Coffee&hel

  • A Kissing Spell   Evaluation

    There were five specially prepared showrooms in the TVM's headquarters. Every showroom had a theatrical audience seat and a big screen to view the shows before final approval. Our “TVM goes naked” was about to be presented in the smallest, least luxurious one. That decision was made due to the fact there weren't any special VIP guests that we needed to show the episode to. It was a completely internal matter, and it was supposed to be less problematic as well. We didn't need anyone's permission to air the episode on a specific schedule since it was meant to be presented only on online platforms. Each one of the directors should approve the program without any ounce of hesitation. Yet I felt it wouldn't be that easy…My only hope was that Samil's prerogative was to lead TVM to bring greater income and our show was mainly for the sake of gaining viewers. I prayed that he wouldn't go against what was in favor of the station merely to prove I wasn't receiving a

  • A Kissing Spell   About the ritual…

    Another stressful day was finally over. Moreover, it was Friday! I had never been so happy to go home after work. I felt like somebody took a heavy weight off my shoulders, it was amazingly relieving. Even though, I had to plan the next episodes, but there wouldn't be anyone breathing down my neck from now on. At the same time, it all had a bitter-sweet taste. From this point, there would be no reason for the CEO to check up on me, and this meant I wouldn't get to see him, probably at all.“You already made the decision! You just need to stick to it!” I tried convincing myself, but it was easier to say it than to genuinely let it go.On my way back, I kept trying to set my mind directly on my goal. I needed to concentrate solely on preventing myself from dying on the day of my birthday. I was looking forward to the possibility of taking my mind off of work and being able to read Immara's diary. I hoped I would have at least a clue to how I should release my

    Grandma gazed at me in a state of shock for a few seconds, then burst out laughing. I wasn't sure if she was mocking me, or if she was this happy that I decided to seek her help. If I had to make a bet, I would choose the first option…“Seriously?!” she squeezed out while chuckling, “You want ME to teach you control?!”“Well… I figured that you are the one constantly babbling about searching inside your own soul to find the right path, or something. Now… I really need your help, and I promise not to laugh or ignore you whenever you try to sound like a monk or centuries old sage. So, would you please become my personal Yoda?” I grinned stupidly, hoping it would suffice for sucking up to her.Grandma glanced at me suspiciously, “What's the catch? I have to know what exactly you need this “super control” for?”“Well…” I laughed hesitantly, “I found a rit

    Greeting Mahala in our home felt awkward, but I decided to trust Grandma that her help was crucial for my training. We sat together at the kitchen table, staring at each other. I couldn't possibly smile in a more nervous way. My Grandma did much better at behaving naturally, although I bet she was worried that I would accidentally slip out something about breaking the demon's seal.“Amara told me that you chose to release your magic on your birthday. It's a wise decision,” Mahala applauded my decision showing her courteous smile.“I'm truly grateful that you agreed to help me,” I bowed my head, doing my best to act polite.“Why wouldn't I? The eldest exist to help in such cases,” she softly chuckled.It was easy to figure out that she was only helping me because I chose to let go of my magic, which literally meant she had one powerful witch less to worry about. I bet that none of them would be this helpful if I were to

  • A Kissing Spell   Setting the date

    It had been three months since I had learnt about Samil's officially announced weeding date. Although I pretended to be fine, I was a mess for a few weeks. I couldn't eat or sleep, and I was completely unable to focus on work. Thankfully, I had Jason by my side. His cheerful, optimistic presence helped me a lot. Because of him, I was able to forget that Samil ever existed… until someone mentioned the CEO. I hated the way I acted. I hated feeling pathetic. I blamed the kissing curse for it. I tried telling myself that those feelings weren't mine, that they only dwell inside me temporarily. Nonetheless, they made me feel hurt, helpless, and pathetic.It was a blessing in disguise that I spent all the time outside work practicing magic. That allowed me to lock the door saying, “private life” and bury a key. I was diligent at studying the demonic language. I even made my own notes based on what Immara found. After two months, now I felt confident of planning th

    I gazed straight into Samil's eyes, forcing myself to remain composed.“You were not doing anything wrong! Don't let this guy treat you like a criminal!” I encouraged myself in my head.He kept blocking my way and increasing anger in his expression.“Could you step aside, Mr. Borda?” I asked as calmly as I was able to.My words only enraged him more. He grabbed my wrist and dragged me back to the bedroom.“Hey! Let me go!” I shouted.“Quiet!” he hissed and kept dragging me towards the Chairman's bed.“Samil?! What is the meaning of this?!” the Chairman roared.“This is what I wanted to ask you, Old man! What are you doing with my secretary, alone in your bedroom, this late at night?!” Samil fumed.“I'm not your secretary! Furthermore, I'm not your property! You have no right to treat me like this!” I yelled struggling to break my wrist fr

    When I told Grace how I agreed to go to the party as Jason's partner, she laughed for almost an hour. I wished I found it amusing as well, but I was much more terrified by the fact that I had a date with my assistant. Furthermore, I had no idea what evil spirit whispered to my ear to say “yes” to him!Of course, I kept telling myself that I was doing my friend a favor, but at the same time, I couldn't forget his sly compliments and alluring voice. My rationality mocked me for falling for his words, but my heart simply wanted to be fooled. Maybe, I was too tired of constantly keeping my guard up. I needed to relax and enjoy being treated like an attractive and adored woman, even for one evening only.Grace and I had just received our first bonus money for the show and decided we should indulge ourselves by spending it on clothes.“You should buy a dress that will make everyone's jaw drop,” Grace stated.“That won't be easy&hel

  • A Kissing Spell   Our Destiny

    Samil had never left my side on our way home, whether it was while we were on the ship or flying in the Bordas private jet. He kept asking me if I was ok. He did it so often that I started to find his concern over my health annoying. He wasn't the one that had been bothersome during our trip. Chris, Elijah and all the other men from Samil's army were coming one by one to apologize for trying to burn me at the stake. Although, I kept repeating that it wasn't their fault since they were controlled by magic, but recalling everything they had done while being compelled wasn't exactly helpful in recovery from their moral hangover… Despite the fact that I knew that it was all over and that I and everyone was safe, those horrifying moments were coming back each time I closed my eyes. Once I tried to get some sleep, I woke up screaming, but then Samil would hold me in his arms and tell me that there was nothing that could ever threaten us anymore. The warmth of his body was soothing

    Suddenly, I heard nothing but crackling fire from the light of the torch. I hesitantly opened my eyes. Samil threw his torch at the bottom of the pile, yet it barely touched the wooden branches. The pile didn't start to burn. All it caused was a bit of smoke that was coming from one side of the pile. My heart was pounding frantically while my tears kept falling down my cheeks."Samil…" I mumbled, looking into his eyes.He raised his head and gazed at me. His expression was slightly different from before. It wasn't as blank as if his consciousness started to resurface again…"I love you…" I called softly, praying that it would be different this time, that my calling would finally reach him.He stared at me in silence, then slowly turned his head to look around. At that moment, he stopped resembling a mere puppet. It was like one of his strings had been cut. I could see him clenching his teeth. I gasped, desperately hoping that his reac

  • A Kissing Spell   The execution

    Ezzura had cast a spell that filled the entire island, including the irresilient to her magic Samil. She compelled everyone. Now, they were all her own army that obeyed her unconditionally…I guessed, she clearly wanted to torture my heart before she would burn my body, doing everything she could to break me. She picked a beach as a place where I should be burned at the stake, and she told Samil to take me there. I didn't have any strength left to resist. He tossed me over one shoulder like a bag of sand, and then he carried me out of the witches' castle. I tried calling his name, but he didn't react at all, as if he had become an empty shell that once had been someone who loved me…"I have to admit that your magic is extraordinary," Ezzura chuckled while walking to the beach. "Can you see how easily I had changed everyone into my puppets? Your magic in this life is even stronger than the one you had as Immara."She kept glancing cheerfully, admiri

    For a few seconds, I was unable to open my eyes. I heard a continuous, high-pitched sound in my ears. It covered all the other sounds I could hear, and disturbed my focus. Finally, I forced my eyelids to open. My vision was slowly coming back… I was lying on the floor in the middle of the witches' courtroom, trying to comprehend what had just happened. I nervously lifted my upped body to sit and look around. When I did, I gulped. All the witches from the group of the eldest were dead. Their bodies were lying motionless on the ground. Some were covered in blood, some looked like they were electrocuted. It was a massacre, and I was sitting in the middle of it… Suddenly, I saw Ezzura nonchalantly walking around the hall, gloating over the victory. I flinched, then I clenched my teeth. My previous visions, Immara's memories, the feeling of betrayal, they all came back and filled every inch of my body. I instantly raised my hands in order to attack her, but… nothi

  • A Kissing Spell   That piece of memory…

    "W-what?" I murmured nervously, gazing at Sister.She avoided my stare. She must have known from the beginning that I was the incarnation of her younger sister, the one she told me about. Now, the fact that she claimed that she didn't remember her name and told me to call her "Sister" made me grit my teeth. Why couldn't she tell me?! Even if she wasn't certain if I remember my past life, couldn't she tell me that I look exactly like her late sister?! I felt confused and betrayed, and the most disturbing fact was that I had never recalled having an older sister in the memories of my past life…"Oh… I can see that she didn't tell you, did she?" Shelta chuckled coldly. "She had been told to gain your trust and kill you, but once she had learnt that you were sisters, she disobeyed the orders. She even decided to trick us to save your life, but you had to die even after you had lost your powers…"My head started to spin. I glanced at Sister. I co

  • A Kissing Spell   The witches' court

    There was a road outside the forest. It led straight to the witches' castle. It looked like a fortress. It had high stone walls around it, and an enormous iron gate at the front. Samil walked at the front. Sister and I were right behind him, and the rest of the soldiers marched in formation, moving towards the gate while constantly fighting off the witches. Finally, we forced the witches to run back to their castle. They ran to the gates, banging on them and desperately crying to those in charge to open the entrance. Yet Mahala and the rest of the witches in charge were deaf to their pleading voices. They would rather let them die at those gates than open them. I gave Sister a signal, nodding my head, and we hit those witches with our magic, making them fall into a coma."Chris, get the explosive to blast those gates," Samil ordered."Understood," Chris replied, then abruptly turned around to get the bombs ready."Wait!" I called out, "There's no need for that.

  • A Kissing Spell   The beginning of the battle…

    It was dawning when Sister finished her story. We managed to drink three bottles of wine, but certainly we didn't have to worry about getting drunk or having a hangover. Lack of sleep couldn't bother us either. That was the upper side of being a witch.After the whole night of talking, we used a few spells to improve our looks. Then I made us breakfast, and we were ready to work on making the cor inane for Samil's men. Chris showed up after 10 AM and brought the clothes and other things for Sister. Then his men delivered thousands of crystals, some for the amulets and some to make a powder that can be used on bullets. There was a lot of work ahead of me and Sister.For the first time, I was glad that Samil wasn't around. I felt more at ease then. I didn't have to worry about my boyfriend's peculiar behavior. I wasn't sure if he'd act the same way the next time he and Sister met, but I'd rather not think about it at the time...Sister was friendly towards everyon

  • A Kissing Spell   Her past...

    I was exhausted from too much thinking. I was anxious, but I had to pretend that everything was all right in front of Sister. I didn't want her to jeopardize our alliance right before that big fight. It was something I couldn't afford. I wished Sister goodnight while wearing a perfect smile. I saw her casually lying in bed and closing her eyes. I wished I could fall asleep as peaceful as she did.I tossed and turned in bed, hearing my pounding heart. I was terrified. If Sister's magic wasn't effected by the power of the seal, it could mean that her abilities were far beyond mine. It could mean that Sister's magic was great enough to defeat the demonic power within the seal, and as far as I was concerned, no witch had ever done it. How could I consider myself as a witch from the prophecy then?I wasn't that arrogant to think of myself as the most powerful witch in the world. I had never craved for power. I just wanted to feel confident about winning, and now I was becom

  • A Kissing Spell   Fragile alliance

    Samil took Sister and me to my apartment. While driving, he turned out to be surprisingly considerate towards Sister and even sent someone to get clothes, shoes, and other basic stuff for her to accommodate comfortably in her new environment. Perhaps I should be glad that he was helpful, but I couldn't help it. It just bothered me more and more. I tried not to show it, yet keeping a smile on my face was no longer possible. Unlike me, Samil was… smiling. He was smiling towards Sister. I had noticed it a few times, and it instantly brought chills to my spine. He'd never been so submissive to me, and now, Sister said a single word, and he immediately made a phone call to get her what she wanted!I felt completely left out in a conversation while we were in the car. If I had been an outsider, I would have thought that she was Samil's girlfriend, not me. I didn't like it in the slightest. I kept telling myself that there were more important things to handle, things concerni
