Nothing but the truth
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56I tried to take a step and I almost fell on the ground. Fortunately, I was still holding the balustrade, but it was obvious that the alcohol absolutely weakened my legs.
“Are you all right?” Samil walked to the balcony, concerned over my state.
“I… am… fine…” I struggled not to sound drunk.
“You don't seem fine to me,” he glanced inquisitively.
“I… only need some fresh air. Please… leave me alone,” I knew that if I got rid of him, I would sober up in seconds.
“Your boyfriend left you alone like that?” he sneered.
I gazed at him, making an awkward grimace, and completely failing at showing my anger. He chuckled, which annoyed me even more.
“Go… look for your fiancé,” I grunted and clicked my tongue.
“I gave her enough of my attention for one night,” he claimed nonchalantly.
“Why&hellip

I couldn't sleep. The image of Samil standing at the hotel entrance and looking at his seal kept appearing in front of my eyes. I wondered if he believed in supernatural forces, if he truly saw the mark on his hand, and if he believed… in me. In my mind, I repeated the whole scene between Samil and me the entire night. I still couldn't believe that I told him I was a witch. I nearly confessed my feelings for him, although he, once again, chose to ignore my words… Perhaps, my Grandma judged him well. He had no heart, which means I had no part of him to appeal to with my emotions. At the end of the day, instead of being relieved after telling Samil the truth about me, I felt frustrated that my words might not change anything at all. I felt like I was hitting a concrete wall with my bare fists. I got up in the morning being torn and upset. I knew I should stop having any kind of expectations long ago, but I was still counting on some break through. Then I started thinking that
A Kissing Spell Looking for a clue...
I had already learnt more than few times that there were a lot of vicious people working at TVM, yet until now, none of them targeted me directly. I kept wondering who would hate me enough to do something like that, but no name popped up in my head. The girls working in the open space might have been jealous of Jason, but they weren't clever enough to put a post like that together. Besides, it must have been someone who watched me for a long time, longer than I met Jason. There was one person whom I could think of that wanted me out of this company, but it wasn't one of the workers, it was Camilla Artois. She obviously had the means to hire someone to be her spy at TVM. She might have also paid off the internet trolls to write as many comments badmouthing me as she wanted to. Even if it was an inner, company chat group, getting signed as a member wasn't that complicated, and the security couldn't be easier to bypass. All you needed to do was to get an invitation from somebod
A Kissing Spell More bad rumors
I walked back to my office and tried to do my work, but it turned out to be harder than I thought. It turned out that the post became viral among all the employees of TVM. The problem grew and more rumors were added along the way. Soon I heard that I even threatened the CEO's fiancé and that she might have a miscarriage because of me! Well… she would have to be pregnant in the first place, but nobody cared enough to check if the words that were passed by were true or not. It was all for the sake of stirring up the thrill that the TVM station had a new scandal… Suddenly, some people on the set started to create problems with the settings we previously discussed. One of them even made a vicious remark that maybe I should go and seduce their producer, only then they would have no choice but to fulfill my wishes. It was unfair, and the unfair treatment didn't stop at badmouthing me! When Grace called, she also got scolded for no reason, only because she and I worked together!
A Kissing Spell About the thing you saw…
Two gossip girls walked out of the social room with their minds blank. They passed Jason and me by and silently went back to their workplace. Jason watched them go with a deep shock painted all over his face. When they were gone, he began staring at me, forcing me to give him some answers. “Well…” I laughed hysterically, “Why don't we go to my office first… please…” Jason didn't say a word, but made a gesture that I should go first, as if he suddenly didn't trust me enough to let me walk behind him. I smiled nervously and started walking towards my office. He followed. He didn't open his mouth until we were finally inside alone, and I closed the door. “Do you mind explaining to me what I just saw?!” he growled. “It… it would be easier, if you t-told me what you saw, then… I can explain it to you clearly…” I muttered, panicking. “I heard some girls saying nasty things about me and you. Then I heard how they attacked you, and… how you used somet
A Kissing Spell Time to fight
I had to spend the entire week outside the office to avoid increasing the conflict that I didn't cause. I felt like I was under house arrest. Of course, I could leave my home, but I was prohibited from getting even near the station and the production sets. All the ungrateful work was now on Jason's shoulders. Grace was also helping me a lot. I couldn't tell what I would do without them…During my exile there seemed to be two more people from work that actually worried about me. I had frequent phone calls from Elijah and Chris. Certainly, Samil didn't call me even once. Elijah, as a lawyer, mentioned that he was preparing to take legal action for my sake. Chris was more mysterious about what he was about to do. He only said something that he would get me justice. It sounded slightly scary considering that Chris was an “eye for an eye” type of person, or rather “both eyes and cut off hands for one eye”, in his case…No matter how bot
A Kissing Spell Evidence
Grace wanted to post the recording right away, but I hesitated. I wanted to do it all properly. I called Elijah since he told me that he was preparing for some legal action. When I told him we got the evidence, he came right away. “How did you manage to get someone to confess?!” he called agitated as soon as he opened the door to my office. “Nice to see you too, Elijah,” I smirked sarcastically, “Answering your question, we got lucky,” I grinned. Elijah cleared his throat and nodded his head, greeting us both, but it looked like my reply only raised more of his suspicious. “You asked her, and she confessed?!” he called doubtfully. “Sit down, we will show you what we have…” I chuckled. I gave him my computer so that he could watch the recording of Dianne's confession. He paid attention to every single detail, and even rewound our video a few times. “What do you think?” I asked impatiently, after he had seen it for the fifth time
A Kissing Spell One moment of carelessness
We stood like that for a while. Jason stroked the back of my head gently and whispered in my ear that it was going to be ok, even without knowing what made me cry. My tears stopped flowing. I was slowly regaining my composure, listening to Jason's heartbeat and feeling the warmth of his body. It was soothing.“Can you tell me what happened now?” Jason asked seeing that I became calmer.“Grace and I found the evidence… I could finally clear my name…” I muttered, still glued to his chest, “We found out that the real culprit was Camilla, but then I showed the video that we'd recorded to Samil… He forbade me from publishing it anywhere… He even told me, he would fire me if I did…”Jason looked straight into my eyes. I wished I could smile at him, but the pain that surfaced in my expression was far too visible. Jason's gaze was filled with anger. I knew it wasn't directed at me, yet I flinched. I
A Kissing Spell The morning after...
When I woke up, Jason was hugging me from behind. My whole body was covered in Jason's scent. I wasn't exactly sure whether I was comfortable with it or not. It was as if I was sinking in guilty pleasure. My heart didn't pound frantically. It felt nothing like lying next to the person I loved. Perhaps, I felt like this since my mind became poisoned by those rumors about me, that I was using Jason. Even though I was honest with him, and basically he was the one who led to this situation, something about this morning felt awkward. I even started to wonder if I should sneak out of his apartment, like a secret mistress escaping when the dawn comes. Of course, as soon as I pictured this thought in my mind, I realized how absolutely immature that idea was… I became slightly stiff lying awake in Jason's arms. I tried not to move for a few more minutes, figuring my way out of his embrace. I could feel his steady and strong heartbeat resonating through my back. His breath delicately

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
A Kissing Spell A hope that dies last
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
A Kissing Spell Fooled twice…
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
