Aargh !Where was Lucien when I needed him the most, my hands were aching with the goods I was holding, the colourful tents elevating my mood by a thousand folds.“Oh hey watch out” A familiar voice called out, his heady perfume wrapping round my throat with it’s familiarity.“Oh Emma it is you” Brian called out happily, his broad shoulders bunching up as he pulled me into his Embrace, his woody perfume tickling my nostrils as I smiled widely from ear to ear.“ It is so nice to see you Brian” I cried out cheerily, his glasses still sitting pretty on his face. He reminded me so much of Lucien.“Why don’t we you know take a seat here and catch up on good old times” He pestered, his hands grabbing the small of my back as he used his other hand to wrestle the bags from me.“It’s been a while, Emma,” Brian finally spoke when we were well seated on makeshift chairs under the sloshy tent, bubbles and children flying around the sky as they ranRelated chapters

EMMA’S POV “Lucien what the hell just happened” I yelled when we were in the safety of my house, the upturned tables and chair glaring as we stood with our mouths wide open.“I don’t know Emma, I think we should call the cops” Lucien said fearfully, his eyes searching the upturned room“Really, you want me to draw the cops into this, is this place even safe anymore?” I asked tiredly, all The excitement that had seeped into my bones earlier this morning just defeated like one big bubble “I wonder who could have done this?” Lucien muttered as he walked toward the drawer “ Where are you going Lucien, what are you even doing” I yelled in frustration, the look in his eyes turning cold as he answered “To check if the inkwell and the briefcase are safe, of course,” He whispered, the veins in his head popping angrily as he carefully made his way to the chest where the documents were kept. “What do you mean safe,

CHAPTER 81LUCIEN’S POV It was hard to watch Emma this way, what this obsidian curse was, I needed it to be fixed like yesterday. I could not even find a cure to the curse in any spell book or curse book, more like it didn’t even exist.“You guys are here already?” Tanesha called out cheerily, as her eyes squinted in glee. I suddenly felt Emma go rigid beside me, her breathing strained as she walked stoically to where Tanesha stood. “Oh hi Emma dear” She called out to Emma, a genuine smile spreading across her face as she took Emma in, the latter just muttered incoherent words in reply.“oh hi Tanesha” I greeted, ignoring the side look Emma threw my way, honestly I didn’t know what exactly she didn’t like about Tanesha. “Good to see you Lucien, well considering the fact that we met hours ago, and now we arIsn’t exactly meeting for all the right reasons,” she joked something in her eyes pulling me in towards her. Tanesha Tinsley was one dangerous woman. “Why don’t you give

LUCIEN’S POV I woke up two days later, I could still feel the heaviness of my head resting heavily on my shoulders, the dark room heightening my fear and anger as I laid wide awake . The candle flickering aggressively in their stands as I peered dangerously into the fire. The house itself looked to be asleep and there was no way I could trust Tanesha after that Incident. I found her repulsing, even though she hadn’t exactly done anything for me to despise her this much, I wondered how she claimed to know too little.Her words confused the hell out of me.“Good to see that you are awake” Tanesha’s solemn voice called from beside me as she made her way to the foot of the bed, her night gown sweeping across the wooden floorboards that creaked silently at her movements.“I get it, I get that you wouldn’t want to speak to me after what happened the other day in the hallway, but then certain things just has to stay the way it is” she said with a sigh, a sudden sadness coating her eyes as

BRIAN’S POV The flight to pines field was one long exhausting trip, and Verity just didn’t know when exactly to shut The hell up. She was always rambling word after word that didn’t make perfect sense to my ears.If she wasn’t blabbering, she was singing songs that didn’t have any rhythm in her high-pitched voice, or worse, she was chewing loudly. One thing with half-blooded vermin was that they were always too happy, and they were the most dangerous, too dangerous. “Shut the hell up, verity,” Lilith sneered, her icy glare shutting Verity up immediately, making her recoil in her chair, a sheepish grin blooming across her face as she stared out the window.I was excited about this just for one main reason: I got to see Emma, and the thought of that seemed to elevate my mood to a great extent; I could not wait to take in a healthy dose of her lavender mist fragrance. “Are all plans set in motion with the hordes?” Lilith asked me carefully, her eyes fl

LUCIEN’S POV It’s been six hellish days in this damn place, and six days since Emma had broken through the damned obsidian curse. It had been two days since Emma had refused to see me.I had no idea why she would refuse to see me even though I had gone knocking on her door countless times, pleading and screaming to at least see her.But then she was just so stubborn, even Maximo, Marilyn, and Tanesha were in on it, always making sure I respected her decision.I felt like a fucking piece of shit; I spent hours under the sun training vehemently, learning new curses and spells that chewed out my insides, twisting and turning at my insides.Learning curses was not for the weak, and if I needed to fight with the obsidian order head-on, I needed to have a few counter curses up my sleeves. “You seem a bit distracted, Lucien. What’s wrong?” Tanesha called out breathlessly, her voice echoing through the vast space of lands as she trudged slowly towa

“Leave me alone Josh!” I say in an alarmed tone as I'm pushed against the wall. My face contorts in pain as my elbows collide with the wall. “Shut the fuck up! We both know you want me, enough with all this sly acting.” Josh says with a sneer on his lips as he leans closer to me. The pungent smell of alcohol emanating from him is enough to make me puke if I wasn't already disgusted by him. Life in Willowbrook Town is slowly becoming unbearable for me. The people's cruel nature was slowly getting to me. Their wicked words and derogatory statements cut through the pieces of my fragile heart. What's worse is that, I'm in no way to be blamed for my predicament. I was abandoned by my parents and family just a few months after I was born. The townspeople gave me away to the orphanage where I was brought up. The townspeople got it into their heads that because I grew up without my family, I don't deserve any respect or love. Almost as if it was my fault that I was abandoned. It got bet

Thank you very much.” I say with a wide smile on my face as the shopkeeper packs up the inkwell. I've always been attracted to antiques — things dating as far back as my birth. There's just something so rich and beautiful about the history of these items that I can't help but take them for myself. All my novels are usually historical fiction. My characters' love for each other transcending through time. I step out of the antiques shop, and I can't help but wonder why I haven't taken note of this shop before. I'm not too shocked though, considering the fact that I rarely leave my house. I'm always holed up inside my house. I breathe easier when I get closer to my house and realize that Josh is no longer anywhere close by. I don't waste any more time outside though, for fear that an evil bigger than Josh will jump out of the shadows and attack me. I lock the door behind me, rushing towards my writing desk where I carefully place the inkwell on top. I stare at it for a few minutes,

The first thing I notice when I open my eyes are the bright lights, and the second thing I notice is the strange figure sitting on the chair beside my bed. “You are still here?!” I murmur in shock as I recognise the person sitting on the chair as Lucien Blackwell.“Where else would I be?” Lucien asks with a smirk on his lips, and if I didn't know better, I would say he's laughing at my predicament. “I don't know! Stuck in my imagination or something! How are you real?!” I ask in a frustrated and completely baffled tone as I stare at him the way one would stare at a lab rat. Lucien continues to watch me calmly as if he's already accepted this impossible reality. “The Inkwell.” He says simply, nodding to the object sitting on the desk, its surface gleaming in the light. I blink, still half-convinced that this is some bizarre dream. “The inkwell?” I echo, my voice wavering between disbelief and fear.Lucien nods again, his expression softening just a fraction. “Yes. The inkwell you f

LILITH’S POV “What the hell just happened?” Andrea seethe when we were in the car, the confused look sitting prettily on her face amusing. But she was right though, what the hell just happened with Tyrone?, i wondered what it was about Teyana that spooked, and Teyana she just sat mute staring outside the window. A blank look masking her face as she just sat rigid, it was difficult to tell if he was breathing or not.“The Mayor, we should be careful” Teyana finally muttered after a while, a certain emotion pooling in her ete as she stared at us.“Why in the world was his house covered with counter curses and protection spells?” Brian asked no one In particular his eyebrow scrunched up in frustration as he tugged at the buttons of his suit. The glasses on the bridge of his not tilting sideways “His wife Tanesha, she looks familiar and if she is what or rather whom I think she is, then so help us god” Teyana muttered, a certain glow emanating through

LUCIEN’S POV I was finally glad that the old geezer was finally out of the way. The lad looked like someone who never showed anyone loyalty and his pocket was likely going to be swayed if it benefitted him.I wasn’t surprised when he had called Emma a writer with a burnt up passion, it took everything in me not to tear across his little office in Finigan Street and tear him into pieces.The idiot acted like he was way better than everyone, always scrunching his nose in disgust anytime he drove into Emma’s driveway with his pink glistening Porsche.There was nothing ethical written about him, and surely i was going to pay both him and his fancy little car a visit soon enough.“ I am ready” Emma sang slowly, her gown hugging her curves tightly as she wrestled her boots on, the really short dress displaying her perfectly oiled legs.It took everything in me not to pin her across the wall, spread her legs wide opened while
