“Hi,” Tasha says, “What do you want to say?”

She wants to get to the point, hear what he has to say, and get away from him as soon as possible. Not because she doesn’t like being here in his company but because of how much she likes it. After everything, she hates that a part of her is happy to see him standing in front of her.

She looks into his black eyes and then looks away as she greets him. He says, “So, you can’t even look at me now?”

Tasha looks back into his eyes and says, “I can,” then she averts her eyes again and says, “but I am sure that’s not why you are here...”

Evarius steps a little closer saying, “Not entirely,” and Tasha’s heart almost skips a beat.

“What is it, Evarius?” She asks in the most composed voice she can muster.

“I am not working with Carl,” he says firmly.

“So, he is working for you?”

“No, we are neither working with nor for each other.”

“Then, why were you meeting him, and why did you let him off on the island when you could have easily killed him and sa

    Tasha stands with her back against the door. There are so many emotions inside her that she does not know how to feel. She looks at Lilia and Esther and is about to say something, but Esther stops her by raising her hand. She waits for about five more seconds and then says, “Yeah, he has left. I heard a car start and leave.”“How did I do?” Tasha asks anxiously. “Did I ask and say the right things?”“You were great,” says Lilia.“Yes,” Esther agrees. “Come, let’s sit in the living room and wait for the others to arrive. I have texted them.”*Esther leads Tasha and Lilia into the living room.“I’ll get us some drinks,” she says as the other two sit down.She walks to the kitchen, thinking about all she had heard and witnessed between Tasha and Evarius. She is amazed and impressed by how straightforward and honest Tasha is with Evarius. Not only this but she is also intrigued by how gentle, respectful and sweet Evarius is with Tasha. Somehow, she had expected him to be a bit more cocky

    Evarius is sitting with a half-empty bottle of whisky in front of him. He has downed the other half in the past two hours since he came back from seeing Tasha. No matter what he says to himself, he can’t get past that feeling he had when he saw her today after two days and then when she stepped forward to kiss him on the cheek. It feels like her lips have burned a hole into his cheek, and he has touched the spot she kissed countless times since then.He is angry at himself for having let it reach this point. He knows that if it had been anyone else, he would have threatened and forced them to do his bidding. After all, how hard is it to make someone do what you want? Just threaten someone they love. Their friends or their family and they will run around. First, he had decided to spare the binder’s life, but half of it was because of the fiasco last time. However, he had felt that that would be the only obstacle this time. He had counted on Tasha never finding out what his death might

    “Do you think it’s Evarius again,” Lilia asks Tasha in a whisper?“No idea. Could be. Although he hasn’t texted me since then.”“Or maybe it’s Sabina,” says Brent, “who knows?”“Let’s stop guessing and check,” Damion says.All of them file out of the kitchen.“I’ll check,” Brent says and walks to the door. He places his eyes at the peephole, withdraws it a second later, and says in a voice full of surprise and disbelief, “It’s the Junta.”“What? Why?” Lilia asks.“Maybe Evarius is doing something he shouldn’t be, and the Junta got alerted,” says Tasha, feeling her heart sink.“But I feel fine,” says Lilia.“For now,” says Damion, “Open the door, Brent, and let’s see what they have to say.”Brent opens the door, and Chiara enters. She takes one look around the room, and her eyes come to rest on Lilia whom she asks, “How are you feeling?”“I feel fine. Normal, as usual,” she replies anxiously, “Why? What’s wrong?”“Nothing yet,” says Chiara. “But it might be. What have you guys been up

    Evarius had been waiting for Carl’s text for over an hour when he stopped drinking. Being a vampire, his system got over the alcoholic influence pretty quickly, and by now, he wasn’t back to normal, but he felt much more sober than he did when he had sent the text.But Carl hadn’t texted back. Evarius hadn’t expected him to. This is what is wrong with people who think that they can get away with anything. They try to fight it out till the very end. He knows this very well because he was one of these people, or maybe he still is. Carl would employ the use of his subordinates and friends to escape. Evarius had been counting on Carl to commit this sort of stupidity because some action and chase is what he is looking for right now.He leaves the house and heads to his car. It’s time to drive to Carl’s place. Carl may think that he doesn’t know much about him, but Evarius has always been very careful about knowing his enemies. This has always been important to him. Know your enemy as well

    When Damion goes back into the house, he sees that no one is in the hallway anymore. He turns left and enters the hall to find everyone assembled around Tasha who is lying on the sofa, still unconscious.“Why isn’t she waking up,” Damion asks anxiously.“I think whatever the Junta did, impacted her more than us because she is human,” says Nadia, whose face is streaked with tears. “It happened because of me,” she says miserably.“What are you talking about?” Damion asks her because he has no idea how Nadia could blame herself for all this.“I spoke back to her, and that’s when she did all this, and now Lilia is gone because I couldn’t keep quiet...”Fresh tears well up in her eyes.“Absolutely not,” says Damion, “don’t beat yourself up over it. She would have taken Lilia anyway. All you did was stand up for Tasha and the truth.”“Exactly,” says Esther as she reaches over to squeeze her hand. Adeline sits beside Nadia and hugs her.Damion sits opposite Tasha, looking at her face. He co

    I feel dazed. The amount of information running through my head is crazy. Rhen’s voice and clear terms echo within this lavish mansion's walls, yet I feel like I might not have a better choice. I have always known what to do and how to take my life ahead. This time, I’m helpless. And miserable. Rhen vexes me. He would undoubtedly be popular among women, and I would have never handed him the control he demands. But the damage is already done. I hold my head in frustration. I don’t like this.A woman, mostly in her mid-sixties, brings me a tray of freshwater and aspirin. I gulp it down, and just like some poison, I decide to gulp my pride and make the decision.‘Puppet, huh?’He didn’t reply. Nor was he guilty.‘Bring the terms. But on one condition. You get my father out.’ ‘He’s better in Jail, though. We can try that.’‘No, Rhen, promise me.’An expression of apparent mockery leaves his face as he scoots closer to me. Rhen holds my gaze with his psychotic face again. Oh, the way I wi

    Damion and Tyrus have reached Damion’s grandmother’s place. They have told her everything that has happened since last night. She is now performing her spells to pinpoint the location of the Junta. Last time, she had done something to send them a message and call them here. But this time, she has to be as discreet as possible.After a while of muttering and chanting, she says, “Yes, I have them. They are at Arrowall.”“I’ve never heard of this place,” says Damion.“Neither have I,” Tyrus says.“It’s a small village about five hundred kilometers to the east from here.,” Anastasia explains.Damion notices that she looks more worried than she had before, and he is about to ask her why when she says, “How can you be sure that Lilia is at Arrowall?”Damion is confused by this and says, “We know because the Junta has taken her, and she would be wherever they are.”“No, you don’t understand,” Anastasia says, “the spell I just performed traces the location of the junta tribe i.e wherever the

    Although Evarius has agreed to the trade, Carl is skeptical. What if he learns the information and still tortures him for the stone? He knows he might be stretching his luck thin by saying what he is about to say, but he has no choice.“How can I be sure,” he says slowly and carefully, “that you will follow through with the deal?”“You can’t,” says Evarius simply. “You cannot be sure, but I give you my word. If what you tell me is valuable to me, I will leave without the stone. People may consider me selfish, evil, or ruthless. They are not entirely wrong, but I keep my word.”*The confidence with which Carl is claiming to have some information is intriguing to Evarius though he makes sure to seem mildly indifferent.Carl takes a deep breath and says, “As I said, I know you want the Binder and so do I, as a matter of fact, which I think you already know. This is the reason I am always up to date about wherever she is even though I can’t get near her. Now, last night, the Junta kidnap

    Six years later.“Tasha! Where are you?”Lilia is standing at the bottom of the stairs in a sea-glass green colored off-shoulder gown and looking up. She sees Esther stepping down the stairs in a halter neck gown of the same shade as hers.“Have you seen Tasha?” Lilia asks her.“She was with me like five minutes ago, and then she went downstairs.”Lilia groans.“I can’t see her anywhere.”“She’ll turn up,” Esther says, now climbing downstairs, “she is very excited for the day after all.”Lilia smiles, “Yeah, she is. I’ll check with the men. Maybe she is there. Does Sabina need anything else?”“Not for now. I just gave her her perfume of demand. She wants everything to be perfect! Honestly, I don’t blame her.”“Mumma.”A voice comes from their right, and they see a small blonde-haired girl in a light green frilled frock running towards them from the hall.“There you are!” Lilia exclaims. “I was looking for you everywhere. Where did you go?”“I was with Uncle Ty. He said he wanted to se

    He is hoping that she will feel him and realize what he is trying to say. Should he close his eyes? But he doesn’t want to. He wants to keep looking at Tasha if things go the way he thinks they will.Just as he is looking at Tash, he sees a trickle of blood flow out from her nose. She is having a nosebleed.“Tasha!” He says.Sabina hears his voice and looks up to see what the matter is.“Are they doing something to her?” She asks in a horrified voice.“I don’t know,” Evarius says, panicking. “Hey, Tasha!”He shakes her, but it’s no use. It looks like she and the eight Junta witches that are still standing are having a battle inside this trance that they are in and it’s hurting Tasha. Evarius has no idea what to do. He places his hand again on Tasha’s and closes his eyes this time.*Tasha feels rather than sees Evarius enter this realm. She uses her other hand to force him out. She can do this without him. She knows what he is trying to do. She won’t allow it.“No,” she says in her mi

    Relief courses through Tasha as she sees Lilia standing near the fire looking absolutely fine. She rushes over to her followed by Evarius.“Let’s leave,” Tasha says to Lilia.“I have been trying, but I can’t,” Lilia says pointing to the Head’s grip on her wrist. “It’s like she has an iron grip.“It's magic,” Tasha says and places her hand over the Junta lady’s.At first, Tasha can’t feel anything, but then it’s like she is being sucked into a different world and now she knows why the Junta can’t hear anything from outside because she can’t hear anything anymore either. But now she can see. She can see hundreds and hundreds of people lying on the floor slowly turning gray and Tasha realizes with a jolt that these are all the vampires that are dying. The younger ones first.Tasha focuses harder and now it’s like she is flipping through a book and in the next few pages, she finds a lot of other people of different ages clutching their chests. Dying. Among those people, she also sees hers

    Tasha and her group move forward. They do not find any more werewolves in their way. Maybe they are fighting on the other side. When the very edge and can clearly see the cloaked witches standing in a circle Tasha says, “Okay, I need to break into the innermost circle. That’s where the real stuff is happening. The rest of the circles are for elevating the effectiveness of the spell.”“I think we should spread out and take on as many witches as we can without causing too much chaos,” says Evarius. “Otherwise, they will try to push us back like last time and it will complicate things. Although this time we have witches which is much better.”“Okay then,” let’s spread out. “We won’t be able to see each other. So, once you and your neighbors are in position, wait for ten seconds and then attack. This will ensure that we do it at the same time.”Everyone agrees with this idea and spreads it out. Evarius stands right beside Tasha. They wait for ten seconds and then Tasha places her hand on

    Evarius is clenching his chest and breathing heavily. It feels like someone is stabbing him in the heart continuously.“What is happening? I don’t understand,” he can hear Tasha say, as if from a long distanceHe cannot speak for the pain that he is feeling and just as he feels that he is going to pass out from the pain, it starts reducing in intensity, and soon it is gone. He massages his chest, but it feels absolutely normal now. What the fuck was that?“Evarius,” Tasha says, on the verge of tears.“I am fine Tasha.”“What? No -““Yes. The pain is gone.”“But why did it come in the first place, that’s the question,” says one of the witches.“Exactly. What did it feel like?”Evarius explains it to them. The more he talks the more confused Tasha looks.“Nothing like this happened the last time,” she says, “Did it?”“No.”“Then why now? They are targeting my bloodline, but I don’t feel anything. This is just weird.”“But the Serafina line is related to vampires,” a witch suggests.“Yea

    The sun has gone down the horizon and because it's a new moon, the night is very dark. Lilia has been brought out of the house and she sees that it’s not a small house, it’s actually a huge mansion. The junta has cleared the space for the ritual and other than cloaked figures, Lilia can spot some other people. This makes her wonder. Who are these people? All the time she has been with the Junta, she has only seen them in cloaks.She walks to stand in front of the fire beside the Head who gives her a little smile. The smile makes her otherwise rigid face softer and calms Lilia’s nerves.“How long will it take?” Lilia asks.“A few hours. It’s a long process. We will be done before dawn, I hope you have rested during the day.”Lilia nods.“Then, you’ll be fine,” the Head says.Lilia glances around the scene. There are a lot of people here. Much more than there were before. There is a lot more commotion and people are talking continuously and moving in and out of the house. It almost seem

    The junta is gathered on the first floor of the mansion. This entire floor Carl has given to them for the time being. It is in the backroom on this floor that they have kept the binder. They don’t want Carl to get close to her before they have no choice.“I have given her the food,” Chiara tells Amyra.“How is she?”“She is fine. I told her she will be going home today and she looked happy with the prospect.”“Good. Now, we just need to make sure to get her out of this place before Carl lays his hands on her. Make sure that no matter what happens he can’t get to her. Once she is back home, we will place the spell that keeps Carl and his people away from her back and she will be safe.”“I will make sure that everything goes as planned,” Chiara says.“It should because if it does we will be able to correct the grave historical blunder that our ancestors had committed. We will finally be able to wash our hands off it.”Amyra turns around to look out of the window thinking about all the g

    Carl, Luther, and Garrit and sitting with the Junta head. Her name is Amyra. They are discussing the arrangements that Carl has provided the Junta with and something else that he has found out recently.“Are your plans for the new moon set then?” Carl asks her.“We are almost done. We’ll be ready by then, don’t worry. We’ll be off your hands after that. You’ll get what you want.”“Which is the binder?”“The binder, yes.”“Good. But there is something else that I think you should take notice of.”“And what is that?”“The binder’s friends are in town again. Does this mean that they know she and you are here?”“How can I tell you that? This type of thing should be your concern. Anyway, I have no idea how they can possibly know that we are associating with you. We never associate with werewolves and vampires, or at least that’s what everyone believes.”“Right,” says Luther, “but let’s say they do know and they try to sabotage our plans. Will you help us fight them?”“Of course, we will. H

    Everyone looks from Evarius to Sabina to Tasha in shock, but Tasha smiles because she knows that Sabina’s fainting means that it has worked.“What happened to her?” Tyrus asks, kneeling down beside her, looking scared.“She’ll be okay Ty and so will Evarius,” says Tasha. “Can you guys please carry them inside? Their bodies are going through a change and they might be down for some time.”Tyrus carries Sabina in and Damion and Brent carry Evarius. They place them on the two sofas and Tasha asks, “Did you guys feel something when Evarius fainted.”“Yes,” five of them say.“No,” says Damion.“Of course, you didn’t feel anything, D. You are a werewolf. The rest of you, what was it?”“A swooping gust of wind inside,” Esther says.“Yeah, like a blood rush,” says Nadia.“Does that mean it worked?” Brent asks.“In my humble opinion. It does.”“Is there any way to check?” Tyrus asks“Not really,” says Tasha, “at least nothing that I know of. But I am sure we will find something out once Sabina
