I said recourse not intercourse!!!

last update Last Updated: 2021-12-30 01:50:11

The lavender scent from the lighted candles in the living room brought a sense of ease each time I was within the four walls. It has a beige and cream-colored theme with a cracking furnace that has served the quarter for a millennium of years.

The tiles are a perfect blend of black and white and it compliments the entire nude coloured living room. The white curtains are parted side by side to give a panoramic view of the street.

My parents are situated at a far corner of the room and I watched with interest when mom stood up and walked towards me with a smile on her face.

"Where is Hilda?" I furrowed my brows at dad.

"I sent her on a mission to inform the northern vampires, the council about Lucindo."

"You won't believe they think I'm mad!" Mom's eyes widened in panic and she pressed her slender fingers on my face.

"Do I look mad to you?" Her blue eyes peered into my black orbs and I narrowed my eyes at her, trying to understand where all of that was coming from.

"What are you talking about? And why the sudden interest in madness?" I tucked some strands of her curly chestnut hair behind her ears and her features suddenly went rigid.

"Bloody hell! So you do agree with them? Tell me you don't, I'm your mother." She yanked my hair and threw me with full force next to the burning furnace.

I hissed in pain and tried to stand up. The scars from my fall were beginning to heal up almost immediately. Mom's eyes blinked red and she stared at me with hatred and full resentment and launched at me. Cass stood in her way and tried to fight her off but she bit him and flung him aside.

"You bastard child, despite everything I have done for you? You dare think I'm crazy?" She gritted her teeth and tried to bite me when dad punched her and slammed her across the pieces of furniture.

"What the hell is happening, Suzy?" I yelled at the witch and tried to help a bleeding Cass. Werewolves bites are lethal to vampires because their venoms can kill a vampire, it causes a kind of delusion and also makes the healing process of a vampire slow. A bite of a werewolf can kill a vampire.

"I think it has to do with Lucindo. She has been cursed." Suzy cried out and walked towards mom. Dad was trying to hold her down but whatever Lucindo did to her made her a lot more stronger and crazier. Her wild side is a huge contrast to her usual calm and cool personality.

Suzy placed her index finger on mom's forehead, said some magical incantations that made mom relax a little. She looked drowsy like she had been drugged.

"Don't leave me, Cedric. I don't know what the hell is happening to me." A tear slipped from her dilated eyes.

"I will always be by your side and together we will overcome this, Kate Marshall." Dad kissed her palm and finger-combed her hair that now resembled a bed nest till she passed out.

It was at this moment I knew how dangerous Lucindo was. Even without his presence, he was still able to stir up trouble. Kate Marshall isn't just a loving mother and wife but also an Alpha to the Eris pack. So if anything happens to her, the pack suffers too.

Outside the dark storm, clouds were gathering. Rain began to hit the glass window and a flash of lightning forked across the gray sky followed by a loud crash of thunder that flooded the corridor with light.

A raspy cough from my back startled me and I yelped in worry when I saw Cass gradually dying. His once olive skin looked pale and ghostly, his eyes looked dull and some dark veins were scribbled underneath his eyes by nature's invisible artist, Death.

"Stay with me, Cass, and stop risking your life all in the name of trying to save me because there will be no thank you sex for you." I squinted my eyes shut and said with a frown and a playful grin lit his face.

I picked a broken shard of the flower vase that must have broken during Kate's episode and slashed my wrist.

"Here you go, Cass. Drink and be healed." I pushed my wrist towards his mouth and watched his fangs blare out before sinking into my wrist. Every drop of blood Cassius drained me off replenished him. His wounds began to heal and color was restored to his skin.

I'm the combination of my father and mother. A hybrid and I can cure werewolf bites with my blood. My grandmother from my maternal side used to be a very powerful witch hence my link to magical powers. I learned from my history that access to magical powers was given to a chosen member of the family in each generation, so I can either be referred to as the hybrid with magical powers or a tribrid.

I helped Cass up and we went towards Kate to see how she was doing. She slept peacefully but a crescent sign which represented the curse marked her wrist like it was in its rightful place.

"How can we save her?" Cass ruffled his tousled hair and stared at Kate.

"This curse is nothing like I have ever seen. It is an ancient curse." Suzy crossed her arms to her chest.

"And every curse can be broken, we simply need a loophole." I struggled to swallow and it became harder to breathe.

"For Pete's sake, just do whatever the hell you can do to save my mate. I will ensure I hunt that bastard who started this whole plague in the first place and have him undo it." Dad slammed his fist on the table and walked off.

A terrifying thunder and lightning filled up the sky with bangs after father left as if it was some parting tune.

"We need some sort of recourse to salvage the situation. What is the way forward." I sniffled.

"I may not know how to cure her but I can help manage her illness. She is beginning to have a temperature." Suzy touched Kate's neck.

"I said recourse not intercourse." I raised a brow at Suzy.

"I'm the only witch who knows her way around magic for now so let me give this my best shot."

"Alright, let's get started. How can we help?" Cass rolled up his sleeves.

"I need some toucan beaks, owl feathers, and some sages." Suzy stared at Cass and me, probably wondering if we were up to the task.

"You should get that at the witch market which is a two hours drive from here." Suzy placed her hands on Kate's chest and began to mutter some incoherent words.

"The curse is a deadly one and Kate has only seventy-two hours to get it lifted, else she dies," Suzy said the words that stopped us dead in our tracks.

"No!" I raised my hands and screamed, "that's impossible, you are lying."

"It's okay, let's go look for the herbs and we will ponder over that later," Cass whispered into my ears and led me out of the Quarter, and with a heavy and grieving heart, I braced up to get the task done even though a part of me feared for the inevitable.

    The building of the book store is in a state of ruins; a huge dilapidated mess with growing moss as the ornamental plant that designed the walls, making it a beautiful decayed mess.Cass led me forward and opened the entrance door to let me in first, I gave him a polite smile in response and stepped in. The inside is like a wall of ancient volumes, the bookshelves looked surprisingly strong and had the capability to hold a hundred books and more. The woods looked like it was carved by a profound lover of literature.The architectural design of the inside is Victorian, the stairs were obviously built first, arching like the end of a cat's tail before ascending to the first floor. The inside is warm and inviting compared to the dingy outlook. Books that ranged from the ancient trilogy, erotic, motivational, science, and bibles were arranged in a relaxed vertical position. Upon closer inspection, I could see scratches, the wood was a little paler where it had dinged. I touche

    Cass saw the shock register on my face before I could hide it. A small smile played on his lips and like goal-getters, we chuckled loudly and high-fived each other. Below the cliff laid a marketplace filled with people. I have never been more happy to see living creatures--the noises of the marketplace and the birds that graced the air became a comforting lullaby to us, it was music to me.We jumped down using our supernatural abilities. I checked my wristwatch only to find out we had spent forty minutes out of the allocated time and with haste, we made our way to the creatures which I doubt to be humans because they don't smell like one."I just read their minds, not even a single creature thought about money, sex, or alcohol. What on earth are these people?" Cass narrowed his eyes and squared his shoulders."I don't know but we are about to find out."

While future events can not be predicted with certainty, I can't help but wonder if future events are as a result of the present efforts to better the future or if it has been pre-determined by the creator to be.Looking at Cass, I could tell he was a little apprehensive, but that is the most natural of emotions when we see and feel something or someone that had the potential of bringing wonder into our lives.

My rough mental calculation claimed he must be up to 18ft tall.

Cass scrunched his brows in anger.The riddle man pointed his rod at Cass and threw a fireball at him which Cass ducked early enough to prevent a third-degree burn.

We left them with the brain-tasking job of finding out what kind of monster she is and why she was killed in that horrific way.Hilda's corpse was placed in a wooden coffin made with the finest and darkest shade of brown with a huge 'H' accessory adorning it. Her body was placed in there with the cover opened while we mourned her. She was a great warrior and a friend. She had the best intentions for all with a weird way of showing emotions. But from her history of what happened a century again, we understood her better."Come!" Suzy beckoned on me. For the first time in history, she wasn't wearing a skimpy outfit. She was draped in a long black gown to honor Hilda. An effort I commended. I was impressed with her character development."I stood up from the liv

Cedric's baritone thundered as he walked into my room, wiping his blood-stained mouth with the hem of a shirt."Don't ask me how the hell it happened, I'm still feeling guilty enough about what happened yesterday." She held her hands up before mumbling, "It is mental torture, I feel like I'm going crazy." She said to herself."We could probably blame it on the excessive vodka she had yesterday night after opening up to you both." Cedric plopped on the edge of my bed."Or maybe it was the club. It was probably the strobing lights of the nightclub and repetitive doof doof of the bass that triggered some form of chemical reaction in her brain, causing her to make a rash decision all of a sudden." I furrowed my brows at the both of them, lost in thoughts.

Mom's voice reverberated around the house."Thanks mother," I said begrudgingly and used my pillow to shield my face."Come downstairs right now and come and have breakfast before I come in using formula B for you." She called out again, this time around with a threat."Five more minutes mom, just five and I will be at the dining." The shrilling sound of a voice made me jump up from my bed in nightmare. It was my mother dressed in her pajamas, singing God knows what while my eardrums bled and cried in agony. Her skin glowed in the presence of sunlight and she looked pretty chic for a woman of forty-five years."Stop ma, you are hurting my ears,

Hilda paced around her room, throwing things around and breaking fragile objects like the painting of a mermaid in ceramic porcelain we got from china two hundred years ago and that hurt me to my bone marrow."And that is why I will always apologize, I'm sorry Hilda, at least invite me in so you can see that I have changed."

The sky tinges a vibrant orange glow and a glossy gold upon the horizon as the evening casts her dusky gown."C'mon everyone, hurry into my brand new whip!" Hilda beckoned on everyone as we exited the quarter. "Nice whip!" Tiana said as she caressed the cream-colored car that must have cost thousands of dollars. "I know right!" Hilda grinned, revealing her white translucent pair of teeth."Wow! Hilda, did you buy a Lamborghini Urus? She is gorgeous." I took a step back slowly to admire the car. The details of the car screamed of pure grandeur. The tyre was well crafted with layers of shar

Suzy walked towards Hilda and raised her chin to face her."Fear of the unknown and anger." I butted in, clearing the junks on a table, and inserted the printed diagram on the table with a thud."So you can either choose to sulk all day or assist us in talking sense into Cedric to release the people he stole from each faction." Suzy raised her hair up and packed them in a messy bun."What the hell happened?" Hilda tilted her head and from the look she gave, we had piqued her interest."Your lunatic of a dark lord kidnapped a kid from each faction to murder as a punishment to yesterday's abrupt end of the dinner."

People paraded the city in wide-brimmed hats and kept trouping into the bar to order for iced drinks and liquors.The bar was stuffy and filled with people drinking, chatting and laughing excitedly. The bar was named Thunderbolt and it reminded me of a comic cartoon from nickelodeon that comprised of a supernatural family called Thunder Man. Suzy and Hilda were both dressed in jeans bum shorts while Suzy had her blouse buttons removed to expose her bosoms. We all sat in front of the barman and drank away the late afternoon that led to early evening. The air conditioner was on but it felt ineffective as a resu
