Drawn To You CHAPTER TWELVE
JASMINE’S POVAfter dressing up, I step out to find him sitting on a chair working on his laptop on a desk, typing away with incredible speed which doesn’t even surprise me anymore.I also see a table in the middle of the room with two chairs across each other, beautifully prepared, there are rose petals scattered on it and in the middle, there’s a scented candle that gives this after-rainfall scent, I guess. I can’t help the smile that spreads throughout my face at the sight, I’d say it almost has a romantic look if I didn’t know better, maybe he just likes eating in style.Noticing my presence, he puts off his laptop and turns towards me, taking in my appearance and he looks stunned as he eyes me from head to toe.I watch as he walks over to a chair silently, eyes never leaving mine.“Dine with me and afterward we will talk.” He says with a calm voice though authoritative enough to not be declined. One second he is being mean, the next, imposingly sexy, and now he’s acting nice

NOAH’S POVI sense the battle in her mind as she tries to process everything I just said and I can’t help but worry when I see sadness in her eyes. She looks ready to leave it all behind without giving it a chance for fear of failure.'I'd be damned if I let go of her now that I’ve found her.’ My wolf says strengthening my stance on the matter.“ Let’s go meet our people,” I say to her as I tug her upwards, at least she doesn’t resist but she doesn’t look enthusiastic about it either.No matter, I would give her enough reasons to not consider escaping this, a lot of souls are at risk and she needs to understand that presently by virtue of fate's design, their lives are in her hands.I silently lead her out of the room, into the lobby, and head down the stairs to the main hall where everyone was busy in preparation for a banquet in her honor.Heads turn and bow at the sight of her before returning to their various indulgent, I watch her closely as she smiles gracefully but nervou

JASMINE’S POVI stare at the male in front of me in surprise and all I can think of is the fact that he looks very familiar.“ Priestess?” I ask Noah, who is glaring daggers at him because I don’t understand what called for this entire over-submissive behavior.“ This is Malakai, the werewolf you enslaved, he is bound by your aura.” He says to me, regarding Malakai who hasn’t lifted his head for a second since he got into his kneeling position.I run my eyes over him, assessing his entire feature as I try to piece together my memories, and the first scene my mind rests on is when the gold band had gone around his neck in the street. Curiously, I move my eyes to the exact place where I remember the band resting on and I let out a gasp in shock when I see it on the exact spot it was, glowing brightly, but rather than looking like a band on his neck, it looks like it is imprinted on his skin, and not an attachment anymore. My palm immediately covers my mouth in horror if the realit

CHAPTER FIFTEENJASMINE’S POV“ I honestly regret going against my Alpha, and threatening his safety, my only solace is that at least one good came out of my rebellion. We found you and I would gladly rebel again if it would lead to the same outcome if time is reversed.” He says with fierce determination and I admire his courage at the same time, I pity his current situation because, for a brief second, I saw Noah look at him, I saw a clear look projecting his will to cause him enormous pain.“ I would not say that out loud if I were you,” I say to him with a smile.“ But thank you for all the information you have given me, it has been a great help,” I say and take his hand in mine expressing my gratitude, as I stare at his surprised expression, as we stand in the grand hall.“ It’s been an honor talking to… Arrh.” he starts saying but stops and screams in pain as he drops to his knees and withdraws his hands from mine in haste and grabs his head in agony.“ What’s wrong with yo

JASMINE’S POV“ My lady you have to start getting ready.” the lady who accompanied me upstairs says.“ What happened down there?” I ask her still seated on the bed and not making any attempt to stand up and start preparing for the banquet.The lady had led me up to this room and said that it had been prepared for me in case I decide to not stay with Noah, as per his instructions.In my confused and somewhat overwhelmed state, I had followed her quietly and just sat down on the bed once we got into the room, not saying a word to her since then.Sitting here I can’t quite place what exactly made me overwhelmed, was I angry at the tone Noah used on me, was I upset that he dismissed me that quickly without letting me have a say, or maybe confused and perplexed as to why I feel he was responsible for what happened to Malakai back there?Or maybe because till now I am trying to place what exactly got him upset, was he still upset by what I said in the compound or was it something I di

JASMINE’S POV“ It’s alright, I guess I will find out myself either way.” I say to Emerald with a smile assuring her that it is okay, and she returns to what she was doing.It doesn’t take long till she is done with every preparation and I move to stand in front of the full-length mirror and take in my appearance.I gasp at my appearance in front of the mirror, not recognizing myself.I run my eyes from the top of my head to my feet and shock mars my features when I notice first that my hair color has somehow changed from its ruby red color to the original golden blonde color that it was at my birth. And the blonde locks are curled and wavy, styled in a way I’ve never been able to style it before, and kept down to my shoulder length and I realize instantly how much I missed the natural grace of my hair.Looking downwards, the simple gown that just had an ordinary but peculiar appeal now looks like an apparel worn by only gods. The strapless gown hugs my figure in all the rig

NOAH'S POV “ Dance with me.” I say to her as I offer my hand for her to take.I’ve been enthralled by her look since I saw her standing on the first stair with that confident look on her face like she is ready to brave the storms and conquer the world itself.I watched as she took each step down the stairs from the center of the room and I didn’t know when I started walking towards her.I only realized that I had moved when I saw a dazzling smile appear on her face as she saw me.The proper way for the banquet to go was for her to walk down to the center of the room alone with graceful strides that she doesn’t ever lack but I just couldn’t wait that long and found myself being pulled towards her.She looks nothing less than a goddess, a thought I’m sure came to the mind of others as they set their eyes on her.Dressed in glittering silver, she portrays the very image of one of the gods, she possesses the grace and the aura.Only these qualities are enough to lift the hopes of

THIRD PERSON POVIt’s total darkness, except for the weak flames from the candles kept at the farthest end of the room, at all four corners.This dim glow illustrates clearly the features of the skulls kept hanging on the four corners as exotic decorations.Inside the eerie room, three souls are seated comfortably in the darkness, able to see clearly the fresh blood markings that serve as art on the walls but convey a deeper and more dreadful meaning.They acknowledge the old lady dressed uniquely, with garments made of human skin, with similar markings on her face as it is on the walls.Her hands are covered in blood as she holds the still-beating heart of a beast, slowly squashing it completely into a bowl that contains the blood of the other five beasts which had shared the same fate as the recently killed one.While gently squeezing the blood out of the heart, she mutters incantations with her eyes closed, and the three seated watch her with rapt attention.The energy withi

THIRD PERSON POVThe air is tense as magical energy fills the room while spells are being muttered by Hecate, who has a bowl of water in her hand.She has her eyes closed and focuses solely on the bowl in her palms, channeling energy into the spell but still regarding the domineering presence in the room.The King of the underworld stands dominantly in the center of the room oozing a dark suppressing aura, right in front of her as she still carries out her spell.He chose to see her personally this time knowing the delicacy of the plan phase.The Darhk’s need to inform him of the progress in convincing the pixies to get sacrificed for the ritual.Knowing he has limited time on earth, he stands impatiently waiting for her to finish her spell.“What is the progress of the ritual right now?” he asks with a clipped tone.Lien has stood in his spot for two minutes and his aggravation keeps growing with each second Hecate doesn’t provide the answer he needs.“The witches are alread

NOAH’S POV“Why does Sharain want to see me?” I hear Jasmine's voice as she walks into my room putting her hair in a bun.“I’m not certain, she’s never direct with anything she says,” I say nonchalantly with my eyes fixed on her petite and delicate figure that always has me entranced.“Cut her some slack, she sees into the future. She’s one of a kind,” she says walking closer to me, trapping my gaze as she makes lazy strides to the chair I'm seated on.“I know this, doesn’t mean I can’t complain to you,” I say taking her hand as she sits on my lap with her eyes shimmering with happiness. “I take it you had a great day.”“I did, she’s faring well and healthy, her usual over-energetic self though sad that I left her,” she says her tone changing from cheerful to unhappy.“This makes you sad,” I state rather than ask caressing her cheek soothingly.With my hand on her back and hers on my chest, I dwell in the ecstasy of having her this close to me though bearing in mind that my wol

LIAM'S POVI’m flattered Natalie,” I say to her recovering from her verbal caress. “We are almost done with the hunger case, thanks to the mayor’s help. What’s next for you?” I ask her, paving a path for her to talk about the main reason she called.After spending a month with her, it’s safe to say that she is flirting to cover up her true emotions.She always chooses the avoidance route for every problem she faces.Always in a battle with herself on whether or not to trust anyone with these problems.I've noticed that each second her mind is whirring with different possibilities and situations where the information she’ll share about herself would be used against her.This psychological basis is most likely related to her childhood and she found different efficient means to barricade her true feelings no matter how badly she wanted to say them.I guess each person has their personal means and mine is the flirtatious face.“I’m not sure, maybe I’ll just pick on something random

This has to be a dream. “Hey Rei, I brought wine,” I get two loads of internal shock as I hear her words. Eyes greener than its previous dull look, hair golden blonde unlike its ruby red color, and skin having a soft unreal glow unlike its previous neutral appeal. The exact appearance of the floating figure I took a picture of. It can’t be right. It can’t be her. I thought those pics were thrash that I most likely took when I was drunk. The logic didn’t make sense but I put the main source of the pictures behind me. But here she stands, the perfect depiction of the outworldly image I captured on my phone. I had a bunch of reasons to dismiss those photos, one, Jasmine didn’t change her hair color back, two, Jasmine didn’t float, and three, Jasmine isn’t a magician. Besides, the background was appalling, everywhere was chaotic and there was no way such chaos could occur and not still be affecting the town. “Come in bitch, I missed you, you have a lot of explaining to do.” You

JASMINE’S POV“Is it alright if I do?” I ask Noah, whilst we eat at the dining table.“You just had another power surge, we don’t know what’s coming next, so I don’t think that’s a brilliant idea,” he says taking a bite out of his steak.“I understand your concern, but I don’t feel different. Nothing is happening to me and it’s been two days since the power surge,” I insist, urging him to understand how important it is that I do this.“Jasmine, can’t you wait a little while longer before going to see her?” he asks looking directly into my eyes and willing me to give in.“I’ve been away from Reina for months now and I haven’t reached out to her, besides text messages. I’m sure she is worried right now and is probably searching for me. We’ve never been apart for this long and it’s taking a toll on me, I miss her but I can’t even call her because I’m afraid that if I talk to her I might spill something about the supernatural existence and I don’t want her getting sucked into this.

LIAM’S POVThe sound of the car tires rolling against the graveled path can be heard as complete silence fills the car.Reina sits facing the window looking as though she's deep in thought and my mind wanders to the events of the past few hours.I’m still in disbelief at everything that occurred and the extent to which it affected the human realm.No one expected to see an army of undead soldiers as Sharian had called them, matching through the living realm seeking to claim souls for the underworld.To think that we believed our greatest threat which isn’t much of a threat anymore were the Darhk's who were strictly in charge of causing chaos in the supernatural realm.Our angle of training now supersedes battles against the living but also includes dead souls as our foes.Taking from the entire battle, one would think that supernaturals would be crestfallen and afraid of the new development, but it’s rather the opposite. Due to the Luna’s second power surge, each supernatural h

REINA’S POVHappiness begets pain, pain begets anger and anger begets mistakes, so I’m doing you a favor. Your unhappiness is your saving grace.My uncle’s words ring in my head as I lay my head on the desk trying to put together reasons why I should endure the heartache of being without Jasmine, who is my only family left.I try to convince myself that I’m not being delusional about the fact that she’s in danger and that there’s no way she’d up and leave me without any reason.I vehemently tell myself that she is trapped somewhere that’s why she hasn’t come back to check on me, even once, and not because she simply doesn’t care enough to.Most of all, I desperately will myself to believe that the woman I’ve known and loved all my life didn’t believe that I would be fine with her disappearing on me without any pre-warning.But of course, it’s unlike her, that’s why I have to get to the root of this issue.Something must have happened to my best friend and I’ll not rest until I

NOAH’S POV“What is she doing here?” I ask sternly, once I see Jasmine walking majestically into the heart of the battle, looking as though she is blind-sighted to all the heads that keep rolling with each second.“I’m not sure Alpha, but I can sense that the vampires are on their way here,” Brian, a werewolf answers, clawing the heads off two dead souls simultaneously.“I instructed them to stay put until I gave an order, do you think she went against this?” I ask, but he doesn’t get the chance to answer when Jasmine walks up to us, clearing the lot of dead souls in her path, severing their heads from their bodies.“Ask me directly Noah,” she says fiercely with a glare which has me wondering where the tender look she had in her eyes moments ago when she saw me, went to.“Jasmine,” I say simply, not knowing how to begin an explanation while snapping the necks of three dead souls in a second.“Save it for now, but know that later, you will explain why you didn’t want me by your s

JASMINE’S POV“I don’t think I can take any more of this,” I say to Emerald, as she braids my hair.It’s been a week since I and Noah’s last practice and since then, everything between us has taken a slower grind.I tried to convince myself for the first two days that he was still being reserved because he wanted confirmation of progress with my witch essence.So to convince him, I repeatedly did extraordinary things, some of which surprised me because I had no clue I was that capable.On one occasion, out of pure desperation to get him to see that I am not as puny as I once was, I ignited a flame and made sure it consumed everything around us leaving just both of us as the only exception from its wreckage.I controlled the fire in a manner that its flames didn’t feel uncomfortable around us, but rather warm and soothing.All he gave me was one of his breathtaking smiles that annoyingly still had an effect on me.“I believe he just wants you to work harder before pursuing anyt
