“Em, breathe ok. Breathe.” Hector instructed, trying to keep him calm. He lifted his brother with little effort and Ken rushed to help him out even thought that want necessary because Hector was using his super strength. I was still frozen on the spot. I guess the thought of Mabel being around was what made my whole body shut down. I wasn’t prepared for her. I needed to find a way on how to stop her. Aunt Courtney’s protection spell wasn’t going to hold her, I know that for a fact, so I needed to do something that will take her powers away. All of it. Tiffany had one hand gripped on Sam’s arm so she wouldn’t leave. When I had gathered all my thoughts again I carried myself up the stairs. For a second there I thought Emilio was going to attack Ken and I. We got to the top and turned. Walking to the end of the hall, we were heading towards the only room on that end and Emilio was now sweating profusely. The heartbeat I heard earlier was much louder. The one that was beating very fast wa
I was with wolfie in the field. The sea of indigo blue released a bit of sparkles as they happily waved, sensing my presence. My wolf was wagging her tail non-stop and panting with her mouth dripping saliva. The slimy mess was not what I wanted on my face at that moment. I needed to understand why the hell was my skin still glowed with this luminescent blue. How was I going to face everyone in the morning if I looked like those weird aliens from those movies Ken watched on his free time? I pulled my hair forward and Looked down at it. It was blue as well. It was probably not a good idea consuming that blue rose liquid. Maybe I will get back to my normal self once I have woken up. I assume the power and potency of the blue rose was so strong that it turned me blue. But it was kind of worth it because I can feel this indescribable amount of power. I did not know where in my body it was located but I felt it all over me; every vein, every bone, all my muscles, and on the surface of my s
“Look at me, Amour.” The way he said Amour made it sound like it was melting out of his mouth. It was smooth and warm. It also made me want to taste it on his plump lips. I lifted my head to level my eyes with his. Those hazel eyes that had other colors swimming in them made my knees weak. I was forced to avert my gaze but that did not do anything for my burning cheeks. “Don’t leave me.” He continued, his voice held a huge weight of regret and that broke me. My hand reached for my smoothie however I did not inject the straw into my mouth. I just needed something to hold on to. Yesterday Ken and I went to the hospital to see the girl. Emilio’s real mate. Her name was Hellen. Emilio hadn’t left her side since we got there. Their hands were interlocked and she looked a bit uncomfortable at the contact. He was probably scared that she might not turn out to be real. I had glanced at Hector who was standing close to the large windows staring right at me. I guess you could say we both fel
School had started again and I was not particularly thrilled. The three hedge hogs in their skimpy outfits were around and I was glad I wasn’t going to see Venus’ face in detention anymore. But something was off about them. They seemed a bit different. Weird different. I wasn’t going to look into that because that would mean looking for trouble and I already had my fair share of trouble for the year. I did however maintain an intimidatingly long eye contact when they stared my way. I had that ‘talk’ that Derrick asked for, a day ago. He apologized for his outburst and everything. He said he was acting up because his mom fell sick and his dad was working late just to avoid going into a house without his mom in it, so he felt neglected and alone. I felt really bad for abandoning him at such a rough time in his life, but I did not even know all of this was happening to him. He said his mom was doing much better now and she’s back home. I felt relieved at this and even asked to see his m
I wore a long black silk dress that had a split on side, from my thigh going down and wore silver high heels with it. the noodle strap dress was tight on my waist and hips but loosened up as it cascaded down to the floor. I had a silver clutch and silver accessories. my hair was up in what was meant to look like a messy ponytail but turned out great. I was so uncomfortable in this dress, but I couldn't complain because Frances picked it and I was meant to wear it as an evening outfit. I told Courtney where i was headed and all she could say was "pack some condoms". i was so grossed out and felt disgusted at myself for agreeing to this. I told Hector about it and he had a fit, but later agreed and said I was going to spend the next night with him. I couldn't protest to that either."you look amazing." Frances complimented and i smiled faintly. This felt like cheating. I was honestly not trying to get back at Hector for kissing his ex and I had to explain that to him a million times b
I managed to get into the field and pluck another rose. The mission was starting to make sense. I grinded and crushed the plant in a bowl the next day after coming back from school then proceeded to put a bit of the past over the black stone of the moon dust pendant. The blue paste covered the fake necklace I collected from Frances and I placed it safely into the box aunt Courtney gave me that had the spell in it. I then left the pendant on top of my dressing table to absorb overnight. This plan had to work. I had to read more stuff that I jotted down in my diary from Rosalina’s witch diary that could help defeat a witch. She did give some hints and I was going to use that to my advantage. I was just glad that I stayed in the gym class to learn more on how to fight and defend myself. After dinner I notified Ken on my plans. I just hoped it worked because this was our only hope. If Mabel succeeds in bringing Rosalina out, it was going to be the end. We did not even know if Rosalina wo
I woke up this morning with a pounding headache and my pendant was shining a bright white. As usual, I did not know what that meant, but I was going to stay alert the whole time. I was already afraid of what to expect. My mind was all over the place and with this anxiety in my gut I couldn’t help but suspect everyone around me. Since I’ve possessed this pendant I have never seen it act this way. I was so afraid but I couldn’t show it. I got dressed for school then hopped into Ken’s car. I switched on my phone and there were no messages from anyone. Ken was telling me about the football practice and Tiffany and something about his mom I didn’t quite catch. My brain kept drifting in and out of reality. It was like I was being pulled somewhere else unwillingly. Run! I snapped out of my thoughts and looked at Ken, He was quiet now, humming whatever was playing on the radio. I stretched my neck to peek at the backseat. I could swear I heard a female voice telling me to run. The seats a
After school, Hector and I hurried back home with Ken. Mabel was closer than ever before and we had a limited number of days left since she decided that she was going to go about looking for the pendant in her own little way without physically being here. We all rushed to my bedroom because right now it felt like the safest place since I recently pulled out another blue rose. We had a few things to do and I was getting more and more anxious. The dead will rise if this does not work out and a lot of innocent lives will be lost. “Hermione?” “Maya?” Ken shook me out of my thoughts and I blinked at the both of them a couple of times to properly focus. “Yeah? I’m fine. You were saying?” “Hellen.” Hector exhaled. He seemed a bit exhausted judging from his tired looking eyes. “We managed to get a hold of someone who knows her. He uncle. He came over and spoke to Emilio, but refused to take her, stating that there was a reason we found and rescued her. She needed to be here fighting Mabel
Dear WolfieIt has been five months since the whole Rosalina ressurecting drama and it hasn't been easy. When I came home that day without Ken aunt Courtney seemed like she already knew what had happened. She cried, and cried and Annalise took her upstairs then gave her some sleeping pills. Annalise excused herself after to cry on her own in her room. I had been too drained to cry anymore. I just needed to sleep the sorrow away.Hector was found by Emilio unconscious in the woods. It took him a day and a half to heal. No one knew what had happened to him and he did not seem like he wanted to talk about it either. I was just glad he was ok.We burried Ken a week later. There was a huge memorial for him in school. Although school had been closed for one month after the eagles had destroyed many parts of it, the principal wasn't as heartless as I thought when a notice had been posted on the school's website about Ken's memorial. The number of girls that cried that day was insane. His fri
We were cutting through the woods, flashing from point A to point B in an unimaginable speed. The animals we passed on the way did not see us coming. Hector stop suddenly making me do the same. I could hear the highway not so far from where we were. Hector's brown wolf sniffed the air and changed directions. When I sniffed the air I smelt another wolf. Emilio.We proceeded with the journey until Hector got tackled halfway by another animal. My first instinct was to murder that thing until I saw who it was.They were not fighting. They were playing. Calm down wolfie, they are just playing. Emilio's light brown and black wolf let go of Hector's dark brown wolf and they had a staring competition. Telepathic communication, I guess. Then Emilio darted and vanished somewhere in the bush, Hector followed then I did. We were heading somewhere unfamiliar but the closer we got the more I could smell a familiar scent.We emerge out of the bush after about 30 minutes of running with Emilio, and
The moon had been concealed by a thick blanket of inky black eagles. The only source of light were the blinking street lamps, some nereby houses and the few light bulbs switched on in the classrooms. However, those too were fading fast as the army of eagles charged in the direction of the hall.The scene outside was no better than the one inside. Many people were gruesomely injured and cried out for help as they struggled to make it out of the school. The police sirens could be heard from a distance yet I was not too sure if they were coming or not. They must have been held back by the eagles as a barrier was being formed using their large bodies around the school's perimeter. Mabel was blocking me from escaping this place."Hermione!" I turned around and saw Ken carrying a body out the exit. I swallowed hard at the sight and did my best to search for a heart beat. Penetrating through the loud noise around me, I couldn't hear much so I ran to give Ken a hand. It was Duke. He was badl
I’ve always been a loner. All my life, I thought no one needed to come near me, not even my mother. As much as I wanted her around me all the time, I had to keep her at a distance… mentally and emotionally. I was different. I knew it. it did not take being extremely angry at Ken and hurting him to know… It did not take me running into Hector, or shifting, or kicking my grandmother’s ass, or discovering my mother’s pendant in her forever locked bedroom, or uniting with my father or any of the other weird things that has happened in these past couple of months that I still can’t decipher or explain to anyone without being called delulu. No, none of that.The problem was in my blood. Being pumped from my heart and rushing to cascade down my body. The warm liquid burning under my skin, reminding me that I am still human…. more than human. I could see the difference in my eyes. I could feel it in the palms of my hands. I could’ve ignored this about myself for a very long time howeverI kn
Refreshments we being served in the hall and the players went out to change. I overheard some students talking about an after party at Chris’ house. Hector went out in a hurry to make a call in the parking lot since the speakers were blasting music from the nineties in the hall. I was standing close to the exit, watching as students rushed in and out of the hall while parents and teachers congratulated each other on the outstanding performance of the team. My eyes scanned the crowd until they settled on Derrick who gave me a smile. I returned it as he walked towards me and handed me a cup with juice in it. My senses were tingling from how sweet in smelt. “Hey. Where is the grumpy one?” He asked. I chuckled at how he referred to my boyfriend as ‘grumpy’. It was no secret any way. My boyfriend was not approachable. “He went out to take a call.” I explained before taking a sip from the cold beverage. “We won.” He exclaimed as if it was my first time hearing it. I chuckled again and no
The game had started and we were a few minutes late. Nothing much had happened. I got to the bleachers and sat at the lowest seats with Hector. I did not know where Aunt Courtney and Annalise were seated but I wasn’t going to sit with them when my boyfriend was here.“I don’t really understand this game.” Hector chuckled lightly at this revelation. I was not a sport person so this game was foreign to me.“Don’t worry, the reaction of the crowd will tell you what’s going on.” He simply said.I spotted Ken with his number 5 printed at the back of his outfit. I could make out a lot of our school players with my enhanced sight. I could also almost see everything so clearly; like the sweat pouring down the faces of the players… Their facial expressions. The Golden Falcons were dressed in black, white and gold. They looked huge and I was worried because in this game it seemed that weight was an important factor that players could use to their advantage.I pulled out my phone when a notifica
Ken and I rushed back home to find Aunt Courtney already dressed for the occasion with A blue t-shirt written ‘team Blue River’ and blue skinny jeans with white running shoes. Her fuzzy curls were up in a messy bun and she had a black baseball cap on. Yep, she was definitely ready for this game. “Kenny...” She said with a wide smile. Oh dear… “Quickly, have something to eat then take a long refreshing bath. Your team would want to see you ready and hyped for this match. You are going to win tonight.” I turned from Ken to Courtney then snorted before leaving. “Oh, Hermione… You do the same. We need to fix that hair of yours.” Courtney said. The look she had on her face did not look impressed when she mentioned my hair. I touched my ginger locks thinking there was something on it. I did not see anything wrong with my hair. On the contrary, it was the healthiest it has ever been. Since I started living with Aunt Courtney, I have been exposed expensive hair products that helped my hair
“You so annoying, you know that?” I let my grandmother know while running out of breath. Her form inched forward and I was itching to slap her. I did have some fear for her because she was dangerous and unpredictable but I was going to put my fear for her aside and face her one on one. “Hermione! The pendant!” She demanded and I swallowed hard. Her voice was deep and husky, curtesy of the black smelly smoke. I moved away from her while she continued to inch forward. The stench released by the dark clouds was making me very dizzy to the point of losing my sight. I jumped to my feet when I had regained the energy I was stalling for, then pounced for the switch but again I had missed it. Her does one fight smoke? When it grabbed my ankles for the second time I had tried releasing myself from the iron grip but my hands just kept going through the smoke as if it wasn’t being held by anything. “Hermione. Why do you have to be as stubborn as your damn dead mother!” Mabel shrieked. I was th
