Alicia. After the Pack healer examined me she declared that everything is fine. I waited for Lucian thinking he would take me back to the room himself however Mima told me not to so I quietly returned to the room. I turned and tossed on the bed trying to sleep but I could not. Fed up, I walk over to the closet and pick out my book of spells where I'd jotted down some of what I created myself without the knowledge of anyone. I sat down on the bed and went through them when I came across one that I'd long crafted myself but never worked on it. It was one that could rid a witch of her powers. This came from the depth of pain I received when my mother burnt my favorite doll in front of me. At just five years of age, I failed to pass the witch test which got my mother upset. She took out all of my toys and burnt them all however none hurt as much as my favorite doll. It was the only surviving gift I had from my late father and she destroyed it. As I wept in my closet I vowed
Hazel.It was like a punch in my stomach as I heard Henry's words. Although I had wanted Lucian to marry Cassie, it was only because I wanted to ensure the safety of my family. Now that Alicia has taken my place, I did not want Cassie with Lucian."Why are you wasting your time with someone who does not love you?" Logan snapped me out of my thoughts, "He cannot even detect that you are no longer with him."He gave a demeaning laughter and Henry joined too. I felt hurt and did not know how to react to this piece of news. I watched Logan bend to pick up the dress which he pressed forcefully into my hands.He said, "Be good or I might just have to make you learn the hard way." After a long look at us, they turned away not forgetting to lock the door behind them. Kelly held my arm."What will you do now?" she asked and I just sank on the bed forlornly with no idea what do. : : : LucianI had told Hazel that I'll be marrying Cassie just to see her reaction. I wanted to be sure that I w
Alicia I gasped when I heard Lucian's orders. I immediately held his arm. "No, Lucian you can't put him in the dungeon!" but he shook my hands off him and turned to the guards. "I shouldn't repeat myself," The guards grabbed Henry roughly and began to pull him away. I saw the look of revenge in Henry's eyes and I feared for the worst. Since Henry is Logan's ally in getting feedback on Lucian's Pack, doom is incoming with Henry arrested. "And you," Lucian broke me out of my thoughts, "If you don't start speaking I will throw you into the dungeon as well!" I began to tremble, what do I do? "Speak, Hazel!" he growled making me panic even more. "You and my beta have been working behind me, haven't you?" he spoke lowly as he took short steps towards me and I continued to back away. "Are you in love with Henry? Is this the reason you will not let me mark you?" "None of what you're saying is true!" I reply, still edging away, I wasn't far away from the wall now and my heartbeat inc
Alicia.I remained outside the Pack house, helping the humans and anyone who needed help. I did not want to think about the dire situation between Lucian and my brother, Logan.A part of me wanted to confess to Lucian however, that could cost a lot. Lucian could kill me or even lock me up in the dungeon. He would never believe that I had no choice but to do this.At a point, I ruled out the idea of confessing to Lucian. Perhaps, rescuing Hazel would be a better choice. I should rescue Hazel and go into hiding.Summoning up courage, I moved into the Packhouse and grabbed a cloak. While I was walking quickly out of the house I bumped into someone causing me to lose my step and fall on the floor.I heard a scoff above me. Looking up, I found that it was a lady dressed in a yellow high-end dress with a smirk on her face."You're blind now, are you?" she said curtly, "Where are you hurrying so quickly to that you seemed so lost in thought?"I rose to my feet and said, "Apologies, I did not
Alicia."Answer me!" I screamed again, hoping that nothing bad has happened to Hazel.Anastasia rose to her feet while wiping the blood that was seeping from her wound. She stared at me."Logan took her." she whispered."Do you know where they took her?" I asked and Anastasia shook her head.Kelly said, "Wherever they took her, they're surely gonna bring her back. However, she might not be the Hazel we know. I heard them talking about possessing her."I paced round the room, my mind in a jungle of haze. Why didn't they inform me of their plans? Logan must have decided not to. The punk must have figured that I'm not in support of their games.Now what do I do? Lucian will be getting married to Cassie tomorrow and Hazel is in danger. "Why don't we just tell the Lycan?!" Anastasia suggested, "He should know what to do." "No," I objected, "We can't.""Why?" Anastasia hissed, "You're afraid he's gonna kill you? I can tell you he won't. We would tell him that you're on our side."I did no
HazelLogan took me away from the lair and forced me into the car. I had no idea where he was taking me but I felt relieved that he let my family go in the end.The Witch Queen, Logan's mother was seated on the front seat with a horrific look on her face."Drive faster, you moron!" Logan ordered from the backseat, "We have to get this done before Lucian arrives!"I wondered what he was talking about and the more I thought about it, fear coursed through me. They aren't going to use my blood again, are they?"What about Henry?" the Witch spoke, her voice husky, "Do you have any plans on getting him out?""No," Logan answered with a smirk, "He's helped enough."The witch nodded and turned away. Just then Logan turned his gaze to me."It's time, Hazel." he said, "Time for me to rule and reign with you by my side.""I'd rather die." I replied under my breath but he heard me and chuckled."No, Hazel." he paused and added, "I can't kill you just yet. You will be of great benefit to me, at le
Lucian.I'd gathered Louis and the rest of my pack. We were ready to leave in search of Hazel. As we were about to leave, Cassie stopped me."Our marriage is tomorrow, Lucian. How could you leave just like that?!"I shook her grip off of me, "Hazel is more important to me than any damn marriage, Cassie.""But you need this marriage in order to form an alliance with my father. Do you really think you could defeat Logan and his troupes with your little army?""Don't worry about me," I replied, "Forget about any dreams of being married to me, Cassie."With that I turned and left with my army following behind me. We shifted and made it quickly through the woods, when I picked up a familiar scent."Blood," Rio mumbled, "Human blood."I hoped to God it wasn't Hazel's. We had just crossed the borders and were heading deeper into where I thought Logan would be when we were suddenly attacked.I was less surprise when I found the attackers led by my very own brother, Michael."What has he promi
Alicia.I have tried all the spells I knew to get me out of this cage. Whether Lucian believes me or not, I really wanted to help him. I do not want Logan to win.The spells that could transport me straight to my destination are to difficult and draining for me to practice. I was close to giving up when the dungeon's gate opened and light reflected into the cell rooms.I saw Henry rise from his spot to see who it is. I only looked up when a shadow fell upon my cell room.I gasped as hope surged inside my heart again."Oh goodness, Kelly!" I called out as I moved towards the cell."Sorry I didn't come on time," she apologized as she pulled out the key and unlocked the cell. I stepped out and hugged her."This has to be some kind of joke," Henry chuckled, "Won't you get me released too?? We're buddies remember??"I took the padlock that had previously locked my cell and smashed it so hard on his face that his nose began to bleed. He stepped back and groaned, hands to his bleeding face.
