BLUE’S POV.I walked in, feeling a sense of awe and reverence. In the grand hallway of the sacred temple,"Welcome to our sacred temple," The queen mother said, her voice resonating through the ancient inscriptions that adorned the walls. In the center of the room, a magnificent, life sized female statue stood as a symbol of their beliefs and traditions. I"Who is that?" I asked, as I pointed towards the very large statue.The queen's eyes softened as she responded, "That is the most powerful witch you will ever know or seen, the mother of all witches, Holy Sabrina." we continued to walk further into the room, the significance of the name began to sink in."Wait," I exclaimed in shock, "Do you mean Sabrina, my spirit guide?" I gazed at the statue in astonishment, only now noticing the striking resemblance between them.The queen nodded, confirming my suspicion. "Yes," she said."Wow, no wonder she is so full of herself, you guys basically worship her," I muttered under my breath, n
ALEX’S POV.I woke up once more, the umpteenth time, and I could barely feel the rest of my body. It was as if I had been drugged into a constant state of falling in and out of a coma. Time had lost all meaning, and I turned my head slowly, my neck and fingers being the only parts of my body I could manage to move.The sight that met my eyes was terrifying. Countless pipes were connected to my body, and I could not even begin to fathom what they were continuously pumping into me. I had shed so many pounds that fear gnawed at me, as I remained trapped in this nightmare, not knowing what substances were being forced into my fragile body.A young lady in a white outfit and a nose mask approached me. "He is awake," she announced to someone, and then she placed a strange looking object on my chest to monitor my heartbeat.My vision was still hazy, and I struggled to keep my tired eyes open. Eventually, I recognized another figure approaching me, and instantly, I knew it was Rukky."I'm so
BLUE’S POV.I stormed into the Queen Mother's chamber in anger, demanding answers. "Why did you deceive me and waste my time?" I asked, my voice dripping with frustration as I walked into her office.She continued her work, seemingly unfazed, and pretended not to notice my presence."Answer me!" I implored. "You promised to teach me how to unlock my powers, so why did you decide to deceive me?" I repeated, my patience wearing thin.Her indifference fueled my anger, and I slammed my hands down on her table in exasperation. Only then did she finally look up at me, her expression inscrutable.One of the guards, standing vigilantly by the Queen Mother's side, swiftly came to my side, grabbing my arm to hold me back. In a firm voice, she declared, "You will not disrespect our queen in that manner."She attempted to handcuff both of my hands, clearly not willing to tolerate any further defiance. However, the Queen Mother intervened, raising her hand to signal for the guard to stop and leave
BLUE’S POV.Three long days had passed since the Queen Mother had revealed the risky path to regain my powers. It was a decision that weighed heavily on my heart, one that required me to think about the consequences. I had faced countless challenges and threats, but this choice, involving the life of my unborn child, was the most difficult of all.Each day, I retreated into deep meditation, wrestling with the choices before me. On one hand, the burning desire to unlock my powers and protect the people I cared about tugged at my very core. But on the other hand, the thought of potentially losing my baby filled me with dread and sorrow. The pain of that prospect was almost unbearable, and I could not bring myself to share it with Troy, knowing it would shatter his heart.Dressed in a flowing red gown that seemed to float around me, I was led into a small, dimly lit room tucked away from the bustling activity of the coven.In that room, I found five other witches, all dressed in long, bla
BLUE’S POV."Blue, Blue, wake up," someone whispered, gently tapping my shoulders. I slowly opened my eyes, trying to make sense of my surroundings. I was in a different room, it was not like my bedroom and I was wondering what I was doing here when it is all came flooding back."My baby," I gasped, placing my trembling hands on my stomach. "What happened to my baby?" Tears streamed down my face."You need to calm down, Blue. You have lost a lot of energy, but everything will be alright," reassured the queen mother."How can you be so sure?" I sobbed, overwhelmed by fear and despair. "I am losing my baby.""Blue, please, try to relax. Your reaction could put both you and your baby in danger," she implored.She had warned me before that the ritual might jeopardize the baby, but I had hoped we could overcome it together. Now, I feel like a terrible mother.I cried out in pain and despair, drowning out the efforts of the queen mother and the other sisters trying to console me."The heal
BLUE’S POV. It was finally time to leave the witch sister coven, and I hurriedly gathered the few belongings I had brought with me before joining Troy and Antonio, who were already waiting for me. Just as I was about to step out the door, there was a knock."Come in," I invited, and the door opened, revealing Dora, I had not seen her in a while."Hi," Dora greeted with a shy wave, closing the door behind her as she entered my chamber. She watched me quietly as I continued to arrange my belongings, and it was clear she had something on her mind. Sensing the need to break the silence, I initiated the conversation."So, how are you doing?" I asked, trying to start a conversation.Dora hesitated for a moment before responding, "I am doing just fine. My mother told me you would be leaving, and we would never see you again.""Yes, it was part of our agreement," I affirmed, "She teaches me all I need to know, and I never come back here or acknowledge the existence of this place."Dora looke
ALEX’S POV.I lay in my bed, the sterile white room around him illuminated by the harsh fluorescent lights. His body felt weak and battered. I watched as the staff in their pristine white coats finished their rounds, finally leaving me alone.With a trembling hand, I reached for the keys by my side that I had hidden perfectly from their sight and took a deep breath, bracing myself for the pain I was about to endure. I began with the IV line, slowly pulling it from my skin. The sharp, tearing sensation sent a shiver down my spine, and I wince in pain. I bit my lip to suppress any sound, not wanting to draw any action to myself and that will complicate matters and I was not ready to go through another torture.One by one, I removed the wires and tubes that snaked into my body, each withdrawal sending waves of pain through my weak body. I suppress my urge to cry out.I gathered every ounce of strength I had left and I slowly pushed myself up from the bed. The room spun around me, and fo
TROY’S POV.The journey back home was a long and exhausting one. We had settled with Antonio, who had promised to keep our adventure a secret, at least not without paying him extra to remain silent on the issue.Throughout the journey, Blue had been struggling with bouts of sickness, her worry for Alex weighing heavily on her mind. I could see the concern in her eyes, and her constant fretting about Alex’s well-being was hard to ignore. I did my best to provide reassurance, telling her that everything would work out in the end. I promised her that once we reached home, I would take it upon myself to gather more information about Alex’s condition and whereabouts.Once we got home, I gently guided Blue to bed, telling her to rest."Blue, you need to rest now," I said softly, guiding her towards the bed. "I will take care of finding out more about Alex, I promise."Blue looked at me with gratitude and whispered, "Troy, please find him. I can not bear not knowing if he is okay.""I will,
Chapter 138 – Blue’s POVThe world outside felt eerily calm as we prepared to set out. Emily’s sobs echoed in my mind as I stood by the window, staring into the night. It was the calm before the storm—a silence that weighed heavily on all of us.Troy’s presence beside me was steadying. He placed a hand on my shoulder, his grip firm and reassuring. “We’ll get him back, Blue. We’ll bring Nathan home.”I nodded, steeling myself. “And we’ll finally end this madness.”Emily sat nearby, her face pale and drawn, clutching the last remnants of hope she had. Her brother’s life hung in the balance, and we couldn’t fail.Troy stepped forward, the sword from his uncle’s chest now sheathed at his side. “This might be more than just saving Nathan. If Emily’s right, this man—the one behind all of this—could be tied to the secrets of the cult. He might even be the one who’s been orchestrating the attacks against our pack.”I swallowed hard, the weight of his words sinking in.“You don’t think…?” I he
TROY’S POV.I opened the door letting Blue inside. It was the room where my dad had kept some of his possessions before he died. I have not been inside here for a while and I felt nostalgic.“What are we doing here?” Blue asked, “You never wanted me in this room,” “Yep but I think it’s important now,” I said walking to where there was a pile of boxes, and underneath was an old wooden chest. I removed all the boxes out of my way and brought out a sword from it, carved by the finest blacksmith, and showed it to Blue. “What’s that got to do with anything,” Blue asked, placing both hands on her side.“It belongs to my uncle,” I said. “ Okay, and? Do you intend to use it to fight off the enemies? Because we have to know who they are before we can fight them.” “Look,” I said while showing Blue the fine craft design embedded on the swords. “You see what is written here?” Blue eyes widen in surprise as she reads the words “Deep in the assay,”“Exactly,” I answered proudly and carefully

EMILY’S POV. Humming a turn mindlessly, I strolled along the lonely part leading to my house. It was a shortcut that I had not used in a while but today I decided to take that lane because I was exhausted and needed to rest.While walking I noticed an unusual sound and I turned around to see a man standing beside me. He was wearing all black and wore a mask too, so I could only see a part of his face. “Hey, “ I said trying to hide my fear, it was strange to see another person walking in the same lane because it's usually quiet and nobody uses it as much. He did not say anything, so I kept walking fast and trying to be on high alert.The man eventually caught up with him. At this point, the hair on the back of my neck was standing and I did not know if to run or pretend to be brave. So I choose the latter.“Are you sure you did not take anything from that room,” he asked.“What are you talking about?” I asked, walking faster, trying to get away from this creep. “You know exactly
BLUE’S POV. I went upstairs to tend to my crying babies. I entered the room to find Troy was already there, gently rocking one of the babies side by side and whispering soothing words to both of our little ones. I placed my hands on his shoulder, thankful for his help before going to carry the other baby to breastfeed.I settled into the nearby rocking chair, cradling our second baby close, and chuckled softly. “They like having a lot of attention, don’t they?”He nodded, his gaze shifting between our babies. “They do,” he said, and then smiling softly, he continued ” They are just like their mama, always wanting all of my attention,”“What do you mean?” I pouted, “I definitely do not disturb like this kids,”“Whatever you say, darling, whatever you say,” he responded and kissed my forehead. “They took after their father, not me,” I protested. “I was a sweet little girl growing up and never cried over nothing,” I said proudly.“Even that statement sounds like a lie,” he said cockil
BLUE’S POV.“Hi, what brought you here, this early? I hope you are okay,” I said to Emily as soon as I walked into the office where she was. I noticed she seemed uncomfortable and bothered about something.“Good morning, Blue,” she greeted, “I am sorry for disturbing you but there is something that I need you to see,” “What is that ?” I asked, curious.“It does not look like much at first sight but I think it holds the answers we have been looking for and hopefully it will help us trace the people who experimented on Alex,” Emily said, then unzipped her backpack and brought out some drawings with strange drawing and a green book which looked like something I have seen before. “Where did you get that book from?” I asked while pointing at it. “My brother gave it to me, he said Alex had lent it to him before his death,” she paused studying my reaction, and then continued, “At first glance, it looks like it has nothing to do with anything that has been happening lately and just any regu
BLUE’S POV. “Sabrina, Sabrina,” I called out, turning around in the darkness, the place was void and empty and I had been calling her number for what felt like hours even though it was just a couple of minutes. “Sabrina,” I screamed. “Stop being a coward and fucking answer me, Sabrina,” The atmosphere changed and I immediately knew that Sabrina was nearby. “Stop shouting I can hear you quite alright, I am not deaf,” Sabrina said in a soft sing-song manner. “Then what took you so long to answer me? Cause I would have sworn you were going deaf,” I spat in anger.“Easy there now Child, your anger is too much and we don't like it when. People visit our arena with that much anger, it disrupts the balance of my realm,” she said calmly. The way she sounded calmly made me even more angry.“What do you want Child,” she asked softly, “I am guessing I already know why judging from your anger but I would like to hear you speak for yourself,” “Why did you not inform me earlier, you said you w
EMILY’S POV. I walked up very early in the morning clutching tightly the bag which contained Alex’s drawing and potentially the evidence we needed. I heard the bag tightly throughout the time, afraid that it might disappear or someone would come to steal it from me. I needed to speak with Blue as soon as possible and I went into the shower for a long bath to calm my tired nerves. I got out of the shower and dried my hair when I noticed something was missing. I looked around and the bag was nowhere to be found. I started to panic. Had someone broken into my house when I was bathing? I quickly searched the entire house when I saw Nathan, my younger brother holding the paper in his hands and the other scattered on the ground.“Nathan, what are you doing ?” I shouted at him which startled him. He turned to look at me and immediately he saw my angry expression and said “I am so sorry Emily,” he asked. “What the hell is wrong with you,” I scolded, while arranging all the paper together
EMILY’S POV. “Don’t even try to lie to me, Emily, I have known you long enough to know when something is bothering you,” Veronica replied, looking at me intensely.“Nothing is on my mind. I am fine,” I responded while wiping my hands dry. “Is it about Alex, because if it is, you know you can talk to me,” I responded. The mention of Alex, felt like she put a dagger through my heart and I could feel the intensity of the pain I had been trying so desperately to avoid and I started crying again. Veronica walked up to me and started hugging me and patting my back. “Is okay sweetie?” he whispered into my ears as I cried into her shoulders, “let it all out?” I sobbed uncontrollably into her arms for what felt like forever. “I don't know if I would ever stop to feel this pain?” I sniffed and I lifted myself from her warm hug to look at her. “I don't know if this pain would ever go away, Veronica. It hurt too much,”“I understand you,” she said as she tucked a loose strand of my hair be
