Masie's POV

I opened my eyes when I felt something prick my wrist.

"What are you doing to me?" I barely mumbled. The lack of energy was getting worse.

"Shsh, you will be alright. Everything will be alright." She said softly while caressing my matted hair away from my face.

"Why am I here?" I asked, but given how quickly my consciousness was fading, I don't think she heard me.

The next time I woke up, I felt more conscious. I was still weak, but I could hear clearer. I opened my eyes and noticed the room that I was in. At first glance, it seemed like a sterile hospital room. But then, I moved my head and noticed a girl working on the bench to my left, facing away from me.

I tried not to let her know I was awake before I knew where the exit was.

"I know you are awake." The girl spoke calmly without turning.

"Wha-" I tried to talk but this time my throat was too dry to speak.

She turned toward me and saw her facial features were so similar to the crow/witch who had died th

  • Fated to My Ex's Brother-In-Law   Chapter 213

    Maisie's POVI was hungry, thirsty, and exhausted. But I had to keep going. My escape was probably noticed and that meant Carmen was dead. I held her necklace tighter in my hand and followed the sounds of running water.I reached a stream, just like Carmen had said that I would. I washed up and had a long drink. My stomach grumbled in hunger but I needed to keep moving. I don't know how long I walked. My feet had blisters. The evening was bringing darkness and cold. I shivered but kept going. Carmen had risked her life for mine, I trusted her enough to show me the path to safety.One more step on the mossy stream bank and I slipped, instantly losing consciousness because of how exhausted I was.~The next time I woke up warm. It felt like a foreign feeling. I groaned and instantly someone was by my side."Careful, you are still weak." A voice just as soft as the bed that I was lying in called from my side. I opened my eyes and looked around the dimly lit room. It looked like a cott

    Maisie's POV"So, Carmen sacrificed herself to save you. Why?" Lana asked as she prepared a large bucket of water to be used as a bath for me."She wanted to avenge her sister," I said like that was obvious."I get that. But why you? Why not somebody else?" Lana pressed so, I decided to confront her, "Lana, if you have something to say to me, just say it.""Nothing. I was just curious. Didn't mean to offend you." She shrugged and got the bath ready."You didn't offend me but I believe my presence offends you. Did you know Carmen?" I asked.She didn't reply momentarily before confessing, "She was my best friend. She was more than a friend, she was like my sister.""I'm sorry. I have a best friend who is like a sister, too. I know how devastated I would be if anything happened to her." I said softly, hoping that Zoe was better off than I was."Your water is ready. Wash up, I'll bring some fresh clothes." She only said before leaving me alone with my thoughts.Once bathed and dressed, Lan

  • Fated to My Ex's Brother-In-Law   Chapter 215

    Masie's POVOne day, I woke up like any other. I was ready for the day ahead. It wasn’t hard. The bonds I was making and the things I was learning were exciting.I got dressed, had a light breakfast, and left the cottage I shared with Lana and her brother, Marco.Marco was the older one. He had found me at the edge of the village and carried me to safety. He was part of the patrol guard that took care of the village borders. He was rarely home, and when he was, it was only to sleep or change clothes.Lana and I had become close. She helped me get used to everything. We even shared a few classes. She’d been a great mentor.That day, I was going to meet Lana for another history lesson. As I walked outside, I saw Marco coming home. “Hey, have you seen Lana?” I asked.For a moment, I was distracted by Marco’s tall, muscular frame. He looked tired, as always. Most nights, he had back-to-back patrols. I didn’t understand why the village needed so much security. After all, the witches had ma

    Zoe's POVAfter hearing Maisie's story, I felt so bad for her. We stayed a bit longer but eventually, we had to leave.We promised to keep in touch and direct her father to her so that he wouldn't go insane while searching for his only daughter. Maisie couldn't go anywhere but Xavier and I needed to talk.We said our goodbyes and headed back to the motel.On the way, my hands kept touching the letters in my pocket. I knew I couldn't run from them forever. It was about time I read what my mother wanted to say to me. I remember the doctor saying to my father that I had been so traumatized by my mother's death that my subconscious had erased all memories of her. But I didn't want all her memories gone. I wanted to remember my mother. What kind of daughter would I be if I deleted my mother from my life?"How about we order Chinese and talk? You've had a long day." Xavier softly offered as soon as I parked the car."Good idea. You go ahead, I'll join you in a bit." I muttered with my hands

  • Fated to My Ex's Brother-In-Law   Chapter 217

    Zoe's POVI sat in the car holding the first letter. I didn't know when I started crying but the tears just won't stop. I never knew how one could miss someone whom they did not even remember. But I missed my mother. I wished she was there. I wanted to hug her and tell her that even though I did not have memories of her, I loved her.Knowing a part of my mother's story made me feel a connection with her that I hadn't had in years. Aunt Julie had tried to take care of me to the best of her abilities but no one can replace a mother. I felt a pit in my stomach at the thought that Mom knew something was going to happen to her. That is why she wrote the letter. More importantly, she knew something could happen to Dad as well. I wracked my brain for any suppressed memory that I could think of about the way Mom died. But, I couldn't retrieve anything.How can someone erase a memory so important? 'Maybe it was too traumatic for you?' Dahlia offered softly."Maybe. But I would still like to

    Narrator's POVDespite everything that Zoe made herself believe, she knew she didn't truly hate Xavier. And if the last few moments were any indication, she liked him more than she would admit.Having no answer for him and being stubborn anyway, she decided to act indignant, "It's none of your business," She said, and before he had a chance to joke or try flirting with her again, she got out of her car and got to her room.Xavier was worried about her but knew that following her would not do any good. He had already crossed a boundary that Zoe had set for them lately and she had given him enough to let him know that if he stayed persistent, she would forgive him.Instead, he waited for the dinner to be delivered and took that to her room.Zoe opened the door after two knocks and tilted her head, "How hard is it to take the hint that I want to be alone right now?""Not hard, but you don't have to be hungry and alone. I brought dinner." He held up the steaming package giving the most inn

    I sat there, holding the second letter in my hands. Longer than I had with the first.I wondered how much I had lost by erasing everything with my mother from my memories. I wanted to remember every single thing."Dahlia," I asked, my voice shaky. "Why didn’t it work last night? Why couldn’t you find anything?"‘Do you want the soft answer, or the raw truth?’ Dahlia’s voice was unusually soft, and it made my stomach twist.I clenched my fists. "I want the raw truth. What’s going on?"‘There’s nothing wrong, really. But…’ Dahlia hesitated."Just say it. What’s the problem?" I snapped, trying to hold it together.‘You’ve built a barrier between your subconscious and those memories. They aren’t gone. They’re just locked away.’"So they’re still there?" I asked, desperate to find something positive.‘Yes, but I can’t just force my way through. Not without your help,’ Dahlia added.I sat there, silent. I wanted those memories, but if Dahlia couldn’t reach them, how was I supposed to? I did

    I felt myself starting to break. Before I could fall apart, Xavier pulled me into his arms.I let go in his hold. I needed this, wanted this, ever since my father died. I had been angry with him, but I couldn’t deny how much I craved his touch.In that moment, I stopped blaming him. I let myself cry on his chest, his arms wrapped around me as I let all my frustration out.I grabbed his shirt and pulled him closer. I didn’t realize how much I needed this until I was in his arms. His scent wrapped around me like a safe cocoon. It was something I had been missing, even before my father passed away."I’m so tired," I muttered through my sobs. I was exhausted, both physically and emotionally. My mom, even after death, had given me a task that felt too much."I’m here. Let it out," Xavier said quietly, holding me close and stroking my hair.We stayed like that for what felt like forever. We didn’t speak. It felt like we had been apart for so long, and now we were right where we belonged. Fi
