Earnestine wandered down the street. She couldn't imagine that the sister she loved so much had turned into her nightmare. This was the worst thing that happened to her. First, they thought it was the rituals, but now they figured out Hayley did it on her own, and she had made up her mind to serve the darkness. She stormed into Bottles and Wine to drink her griefs away, and maybe look for someone that would help her get rid of her shattered thoughts. It was the only way to soothe her dying soul.

“I'm Earnestine and I need to get drunk.” She told the male bartender who was standing close to the counter. She took a seat and bowed her head.

“Ace Bobbie,” He introduced. “Here is your drink. Ma'am.”

He smiled, tapping Earnestine who he thought must have fallen asleep. Earnestine smiled, as she opened the bottle and gulped down her drink. She went for the second, third, and fourth until she fell asleep on the counter.

A few hours later, Earnestine opened her eyes, she noticed the whole p

    “Why are you doing this? Why are you attempting to bring back your father?” “Because he deserves it. I deserve him and I won't stop. I can't stop fighting for what I deserve.” “You are making a big mistake.” Justin said, being honest. They heard the engine of a car approaching. “I don't think I am.” Hayley pushed him and he hit the oak tree. She looked at the moon and smiled, the stars that danced across the skies were somewhat happy about her success. She was happy. “Goodbye, Justin Hayder.” Hayley uttered as she pulled out a dagger and stabbed him. Justin moaned, he felt the pain of the dagger in his belly, he stared at Hayley with pity-filled eyes. “No!” Janeka said stretching her hand forward as she ran towards Justin. They used their magic to travel so fast but they were not fast enough because the deed had been done. Hayley glanced at them and she stabbed him again, they were almost close when the oak tree absorbed him, it gave off a bright gold light and they shielded their

    Erin squeaked, as she crawled to the kitchen, she moved around the counter while Amadeus followed her with a dagger in his hands. She was planning to get her hands on a kitchen knife to defend herself. Her face was bruised, and she was bleeding. Amadeus had hurt her enough. She couldn't take it anymore. Her wicked uncle who murdered her brother was back, and no doubt he was here to end her. “I can hear your heartbeat so loud. You're afraid of me,” Amadeus said as he turned to the kitchen door. “I will kill you just like I killed your brother.” He chuckled following the opposite way she moved only to meet her leaning on the counter. Erin was breathing faster than she imagined, she cried silently, she crawled around the counter when she saw him stepping closer trying her best to run away from him. Her hair straightened and her eyes widened, she whimpered when she heard the continuous footsteps that signified death. “Gotchya.” Amadeus said and she yelped. She threw the knife she was ho

    Erin exhaled deeply, as she sat down on the wooden stool behind the counter, she just finished serving the customers that were sitting on the vacant chairs, murmuring to each other. For the past two days, all she did was come to the icebox, earn a living, research about werewolves and go back home. It was now her daily routine. She was exhausted from saying that she would kill her uncle. She desires her dreams comes to reality. Her attention drifted when the door slid open, she raised her bowed face, her gaze meeting the two usual people who came visiting. “Two frozen yogurts.” Earnestine said as she approached the counter. “Sure.” Erin attempted a smile. She quickly packaged their goods and passed it to them. Ace paid her and they prepared to leave. “Thanks for taking me home the other day.” They both turned to Erin. “Oh! sure. That's not a problem. You can always count on us.” Ace assured. “I meant Earnestine.” Earnestine looked at her and put up a smile. “Sure, you are welcom

    Chloe and Hayley were holding their history exam scripts, they both stared at it amused by their grades. They weren't expecting this from their teacher, they gave in their best and they got the opposite of what they thought they deserved. Wendy, on the other hand, was smiling, she passed the subject, she was the best in her class and their history teacher had been recommending her throughout the period. “C in history. This isn't fair. I gave a detailed explanation of everything. I answered all the questions correctly.” Chloe complained, but her teacher simply ignored her. “I have a B,” Hayley told her. “We both passed that's all that matters.” She reminded. “You both had good grades. I have an A.” Wendy smiled feeling proud of her achievements. “So do I.” Marcus said while Chloe looked at him. Chloe exhaled deeply getting her gaze back to their teacher who had been tutoring the whole time. “Don't worry we are going to sort this out.” Hayley whispered. “How?” Chloe asked. “Don't

    Amadeus and Hayley were holding two flashlights as they wandered into a dark abandoned castle. They passed through the bailey and walked up the stairs before they went to the king's court searching for a supposed tomb that the book of the unbinding told them about. They had gone back in time to get to the firestone that was hidden in a werewolf castle about fifteen years ago. The whole place was empty, what they saw were mostly human skeletons, broken vessels, swords, and empty cupboards. The castle walls were cracked and the chambers were covered by spiders web. Hayley used her magic to get them underneath the castle. She said a fire spell and the torches affixed to the wall got lit up by flames, they walked down the tunnels that led into the tombs where the treasures of the wolves were concealed. “Who knows what happened to all the werewolves?” Amadeus asked. “How do you expect me to know? Perhaps, they abandoned this place.” Hayley answered. “Oh, that's right.” “You are a pain i

    Who would have suspected that Wendy Cooper is a dark witch? How did I not notice? No wonder she was so interested in my hidden project or why she chose to read about mythology the first day she came to visit me, Hayley thought. It was too much to bear, she kept her secret from her and Wendy did the same. What if she's more powerful? Ridiculous! She has been watching her kill all these people and she didn't do anything. There must be something Wendy knows that she doesn't know. Hayley was drawn away from her thoughts when Amadeus entered her room. Amadeus saw the glittering stone lying on top of her drawer, he was expecting it to be a stone that burned in flames. “When would we do the needful?” Amadeus asked. “Tonight.” Hayley answered. It was a Saturday so they would be no Weston Hills High students loitering in the school by midnight. “What bothers you?” Amadeus asked again as he sat beside her, he took her time to note the look on her face and she wasn't feeling so good. “Nothing

    The night Hayley Michael escorted Wendy back home. Hayley struggled through the fog, her vision wasn't steady but she deduced that she was in Weston Hills High and she was attempting to find her way out. Hayley was close to the oak tree, she knew that if she touched the tree that she'd have flashes of all those dead people, the bloodshed, the void, and the unending destruction. She saw the ghost of the same old woman who tried to stop her while she was seeing Wendy off, the old woman didn't move back even though Hayley tried to scare her. “What do you want from me?” Hayley interrogated. “The unbinding.” The old woman muttered pointing at the oak tree. “What's the unbinding?” Hayley asked. She wanted to know more about this oak tree. “Come.” The woman reiterated seizing Hayley's arms. She grinned revealing her set of yellow broken teeth. Her eyes were frightening and her skin was hanging loose. Her gray hair stopped right above her neck. They both vanished, Hayley marveled, she tho

She spotted who she was looking for at the end of the bar drinking, she walked toward her. “What took you so long?” Lilith asked Dania watching her take a seat. “Would you like beer?” “No, I don't want to drink. How are the kids?” “They are fine, I need to get this done.” Lilith said taking a sip from her bottle. “What?” “The book of unbinding. It has everything that could bring my husband back. At least not everything but clues and our family history.” Lilith announced. “Why would you write a book about our family? How can you compose a book that can bring Edmond back?” “It's the only way of letting my wounds heal. I need your help sister.” Lilith said. “What do you need?” Dania asked. “I need you to take care of my daughters when I'm dead.” “You are not dying now,” Dania raised an eyebrow but Lilith d

    Earnestine's POVIt has been a glorious ride and I'm happy that he's gone for good. I mean my father. Yes, I lost the people I loved but I'm glad I was able to save those who relied on me. Giving up can never be the solution to what you want. It's determination, action, and optimism. My life has changed from good to bad and I'm happy that Ace was a very big part of that. He would always have a special part in my heart. I love him so much. I walked to the group of people that just entered bottles and wine taking their orders before I returned to the counter. I quickly came back with their orders. As I walked back to the counter with my tray, my phone beeped and I got a message from my sister that I was going to miss the Michael family's dinner. I grinned before sending her a text. “I'm on my way.” I uttered incoherently. Sabrina's POVAs I set the table for the family dinner. I smiled recalling all the memories I made with my family.

    Irvine. The heat of the burning flames escaped to the skies pouring down on the surface of the earth setting Irvine in a glow. The chattering of humans and the chirping of the birds surrounded the whole village, it was an early morning about twenty-five years ago. A fair girl walked out of a house feeling the morning breeze caress her face, she smiled before her gaze met the blue skies. She moved strands of her hair behind her ears before she took a path that led away from the village houses to the village green where she would secretly practice her magic and get over the death of the only surviving relative she had as a family. Her mother. Sitting down on the buttress roots of a tree, she glanced at the shimmering stars before turning a page in her grimoire. Practicing magic in the morning gave her the chance to concentrate and feel the wonders of nature. “I just wish you would come back to me mother.” Valarie cried remembering the memories that they made together. She was her only

    “Let me go!” Michaela roared and the door blast open, Ace was moved away, he stumbled down the hallway and fell off before landing in the living room. Michaela looked downstairs and saw him lying still, she smirked before her lips parted and she vanished. Janeka stumbled down, Sabrina followed and Danica continued defending them with flames and ice, Earnestine stood her ground, slaying these creatures with her powers. It wasn't effective and they couldn't tell why, but they had to continue fighting back until these creatures were terminated. One of the creatures flung a sword towards Janeka, she was too weak to defend herself. Her face was bruised and her arms were scraped. Danica saw it and she blasted it with their ice before a cloud of fire melted it into water. Janeka exhaled deeply.“Step away from my family.” Michaela appeared, she glared at the creatures, her eyes flashed blue and she stepped towards the creatures. “Michaela!” Sabrina said stretching her hands to reach her but

    Dania was pouring them tea while they sat on the couch waiting for her to join them after she put the jug on the table.“It's been a long time since we met Sabrina.” Dania attempted a smile.“Of course. Well, I came here for a reason.” Sabrina raised an eyebrow. “What could it be?” Dania said sipping from her tea cup.“It's about a..” Jonathan said. Sabrina glared at him. “You know my mother right and you know everything she knows.” Sabrina interrupted.“Yes. Lilith is my sister.” Dania shrugged. “Great. What do you know about the relic or bracelet or whatever it is called?” Sabrina squinted. “The bracelet is what bonds Edmond with the darkness. It was hidden after he was imprisoned but I'm afraid that he must have gotten his filthy claws on it.” Dania forced a smile. “If Edmond has the relic that means there is no way we can help you or Michaela.” Danica explained. Dania had accepted the truth that Danica was Freya's doppelganger after being convinced by Sabrina. “Who is Michael

    “Don't ever tell your mother that we did this!” Edmond told his daughters while staring into their eyes. They nodded in agreement before they grinned. It was Weston Hills twenty years back, some months before Edmond was imprisoned. They were sitting on the wooden floor together. Edmond could see a shooting star across the sky, it's dazzling and intriguing lights struck the earth's surface while some kids were outside staring at the magnificent glow. It was quite tempting. People believed that if you make a wish it would come to pass and children were out there making wishes. Freya's lip twitched, as she looked at her father who smiled at her. The bracelet lay in the middle of them, Freya, Janeka, Earnestine, Sabrina, and Edmond sat around it with three candles surrounding the bracelet. Little Hayley was in her father's arms. He used a needle to prick their thumb, their blood dripped on the bracelet. When he pricked Hayley's thumb, she let out a cry, but soon she stopped after Edmond be

    “Jonathan. Please I need your help.” Sabrina said while on the phone, her hands were on the velvet curtains that covered the windows. She bit her lips before clasping her grip on the curtain.“What do you need my help for?” Jonathan asked. “I need you to fix my daughter.” She gritted her teeth and her eyes widened.“I'm on my way, old friend.” He replied before hanging up. Sabrina exhaled before pulling her phone to her chest. She hoped that things would become better with Jonathan around. She didn't want anything bad to happen to her daughter. It was the last thing she'd wish for, she'd give her life a hundred times for Michaela to survive. As she was leaving the living room, Janeka and Earnestine tramped into the front room roaring at each other. “All you had to do was to protect him from Hayley but you let him die.” Janeka yelled at Earnestine. “I tried,” Earnestine uttered with watery eyes, she takes hold of Janeka's arm. “Where have you been?”“I wouldn't believe this. You let

    The atmosphere was gay, few people were standing close to gravestones putting their flowers close to them, and grieving due to the death of their loved ones. At the end of the cemetery were the Michael family, they were all dressed in black suits with perfectly picked flowers in their grasp, the burial had been completed some minutes ago and they were here to put their flowers on his grave.“It hurts me so much.” Earnestine uttered. What if Janeka returns? How would she cope? This question keeps repeating itself in her head. “Come on. The deed has been done. There is nothing we can do about it.” Danica soothed. Sabrina and Michaela put their flowers together before Earnestine and Danica joined them. They took in a long-lasting breath that refilled their lungs and made them feel more alive. Hearing footsteps approaching from behind them they turned only to meet Edmond, Lorene, and the psycho vampire Iago stepping towards his grave. “What are you doing here?” Sabrina implored with a sc

    “Hey! We are going to get out here Lorene. You're going to have that life you always wanted with Edmond. He loves you, and all of us.” Justin said reassuringly. Her arms were folded and she excluded herself from the group that was sitting in a corner of the void. Justin stood beside her before they gazed at each other. “There is no way we are leaving this prison. Don't make me feel that everything will be alright.” Lorene told Justin. “Everything will be ok. Just be tolerant.” Justin said taking her arms while they strode back to the group.Present Day.Hayley brought out the steak from the oak tree of the infernal region. She squirmed with it before she laughed conceitedly, and walked closer to Justin who was tied to a seat. They were in an old abandoned house, with spiders hanging loose from the ceiling, broken wares, cracked walls, and shattered windows. Justin's eyes widened as he struggled to set himself free.“Don't fight. We used magic.” “I'm so sorry.” Valarie told him. “I

    Hearing a knock on the door, she reached for the handle when she stepped into the front room, opening the door, her gaze caught the unfamiliar figure who started fidgeting with her. “Who are you looking for?” Danica asked. “Freya.” Hayley muttered. Danica raised an eyebrow, her hand still on the door handle. How was it possible? She couldn't believe her eyes. Perhaps, Earnestine took the risk of raising all her sisters back to life or she must have left the world of the living to the infernal region for too long. “I'm not Freya. I'm Danica. Danica Wilson.”“Nice to meet you.” She stuttered.“Come in.” Danica smiled. “What year is this?” Hayley asked petrified as she stepped into the house. A lot of things had changed. How long was she gone? Turning to Danica who was behind her, she scowled. “Freya don't joke with me. Are you back?” Hayley asked. “I told you I'm not Freya, I'm guessing you are Hayley Michael.
