Melanie's POV
"What the hell just happened now?" I panicked while I stared at Daisy or should I say Mila who was pacing up and down. She stopped, walked up to me, held my hands when she saw me moving backwards and she stared at me.
"Sis, don't freak out. I'll try to explain things to you but right now, I need to go back. I'll be back before dinnertime." She told me and she just disappeared. I staggered backwards and rested my back on the building wall.
Minutes later, when I recovered from the shock, I pressed the bell. The gate keeper opened the gate for me. I entered and went straight to the house. When I entered, I noticed no one was home. I went to my room, took my bath and changed into a comfy dress. I sat down on my bed and thought about what just happened.
"Is that a dream or a reality?" I asked myself. I closed my eyes and something flashed through. I opened my eyes immediately and I ran to the sitting room. I saw the TV still wo
Melanie's POVI ran into the house immediately Suzy's chauffeur dropped me off. I did not tell Suzy what I saw when I was about to leave her place but she knew something was wrong."Daisy" I called but got no response. "Daisy! Mom!" I called again as I entered the main living room and I saw all the family members seated, watching TV. I sighed in relief."Mom" I called and she looked at me. "My baby" she stretched her hand and I walked up to her, held her hand and kissed it. I saw Daisy with Jessie. I gave her a look and she understood it. I stood up and she followed me.When we got to the room, I closed the door."I saw Sage" I told her. "Where? When?" She asked."When I was about to come back home. Like a flash or should I say a vision." I tried to explain but I couldn't get the right word. "Okay, calm down" she said when she noticed I was worried. "I think it's time we visit
Steve's POVIt's night time already and they are not back yet. Everyone else does not seem worried but I've been more than worried since they left. Something doesn't look right."Mom, when did they say they'll be back?" I asked. "They went back to their main villa and Megan said they might not be back anytime soon." Mom explained. "This is the umpteenth time you've asked." Jessie pointed out the obvious. "It's true, son" dad also chipped in. I glared at Jessie but she shrugged."I'll give them a call." I said as I turned to go back to my room. When I got to the room, I picked up my phone and I called Melanie but the line was unreachable. I called Mrs Spears as well. It was the same thing. I paced up and down the room with my phone in my hand. Suddenly an unknown number called. I picked up the call hesitantly. I waited for the caller to speak up. Two minutes later, the caller still didn't say a word."Why did you
Melanie's POVI stared at Suzy as she signalled to the dancers that earlier entertained us. They assembled again and the song they danced to earlier was played. Suzy stared at Sage for a while and then me. I have no idea why. She walked away from me and I moved backward a bit. I knew I was still under Sage's spell."Somewhere, in a dazzling kingdom"The song began with Suzy as the main lead. The dancers didn't dance but the instruments accompanied her unique voice."I see the stars, I feel the moonAll shining in their gloryLet me feel the moment's pleasingLet me see the highest feelingsThere's a savior, coming to free me'cause she, herself, will be freeFrom all oppressions"Her pitch began high and I felt I was suddenly becoming free. Even Sage was under the influence of her 'magical' voice."Looking into your eyes I can see the glit
Melanie's POV"Sage?" I called unsure. "Yes, Sage. I'm back" he laughed and the line went off. I was in panic and I was getting worried already."Mom! Daisy!" I called. "Daisy". I yelled. I looked up the stairways and I saw her at the extreme end. She walked down the stairs slowly but I ran to meet her. I do not have all the time in the world to wait for her to come down."Steve" I muttered. "What happened to Steve?" She asked."Steve is in danger" I almost yelled and I noticed her eyes went wide open. Mom rushed over to us."I knew he would definitely be back but I didn't expect him to strike anytime soon." Mom sighed as she ran her fingers down her hair."Then we have to do something. It's Steve." I shouted in frustration. "Calm down dear. Everything will be fine." Mom assured.I tried to call Steve once more but I was unable to."How do we know h
Melanie's POV"Steve" I screamed. I knelt down immediately beside him and I pulled him up. "Steve, no. Don't do this to me." I cried. "We have to go home together. Jessie will be sad. Mom and dad will be unhappy without you. Janet won't have anyone to fight with. Steve, please." I cried"Mackenzie, hand over the band." Sage said. I closed my eyes firmly and by the time I opened it and with the anger surging in me, I knew it's likely I spit out fire."Do your worst" I stood up and left Steve. "What did you say?" He asked. "I said do your worst." I yelled. "Fine. Let's do it." He admitted."But before then, remember you'll be the one at loss. You've lost Steve, you'll lose the band and you might even lose your life." He concluded. "Are you ready?" I ignored his speech.I stretched my hands to him and the white rays of mine hit him. He drifted backwards. I
Steve's POVI opened my eyes and I looked round. The place looks unfamiliar but when I regained composure, I realized I was in my room. I sat up properly and tried to remember how I got here but to no avail. I didn't feel much pain but I knew I had an headache. I glanced at the alarm clock by my bedside and it read '11:30'. Wow! So it's the next day already and I woke up so late?Something seems odd. I know I left this room yesterday but how I'm still here is the main issue. Or was it all a dream? But I saw Daisy and Melanie. I thought and the headache increased.The door to my room opened and Jessie strolled in. She was smiling and I wondered what made her so happy."Good morning" she greeted and I nodded. "What happened to you? Why do you look so pale?" She exclaimed as she ran over to my side. She touched her own forehead and mine. She gasped."You have fever. You're boiling hot." She almost yelled and
Melanie's POV"Steve" I called and I stood up from the bed I sat on."Well, it seems I remembered everything now. I mean everything." He emphasized and I gulped."Oh...okay, it's good you know now. It'll save us the stress of explaining and trying to make you remember." I faked a smile. I was so nervous that I started to pick on my nails.He started to walk closer to me and I swallowed my saliva nervously."What...what are you doing?" I asked nervously."I remembered everything and when I mean everything, I remembered everything single thing" he gazed at me. "Including the kiss" he concluded as he drew his head closer to mine. He held on my neck and brought my face close to his. My heartbeat became faster and I became scared. I was indeed nervous. I don't know what to do but I decided to go with the flow. I closed my eyes and expected the kiss but nothing came forth.
Okay...so hi guys...I know y'all might be wondering what this is all about.Well, it's simply a situation whereby you concluded a story with the hope of writing a sequel to it but fortunately and unfortunately, I'd to join the first part of 30 chapters and the supposedly second sequel, that is not yet complete, together.So which means chapter 30 is the end and it's still not the end. Other chapters are coming up so the book won't be serialized. It will be a complete book under one title. So below is the quick peek into what the rest of the story holds for us. I don't know how many chapters it is going to be cause I'm still working on it. Let's enjoy the few typed chapters while I work on the rest.Short intro....Still the same Melanie Spears, the ever beautiful, intelligent, smart, caring and carefree girl, who gets to live a supernatural life with the help of family and friends. Her powers were not in use b
EPILOGUE<<MELANIE>>I breathed a heavy sigh of relief as I handed over the mic to Kate, who hurriedly passed me a bottle of water.“Thank you,” I muttered. I opened the bottle and drank from it.“You are all sweaty!” Kate frowned. “But you were definitely great back there.” She squeaked happily. I shook my head negatively with a smile on my face. Dramatic Kate!“She’s definitely not as open to me as she is to you.” I turned when I heard that voice.“Suzy!” I squealed as I ran to her. Her arms were wide open already, calling me for an embrace.“Girl, you were great out there on that stage.” She kissed my cheeks. “I almost couldn’t recognize you.” I laughed at her flattering. “All thanks to you and the staff.” She smiled. “And where’s John?” I asked as I looked behind her to see if he was with her.“He didn’t…” Suzy tried to answer.“Over here, sweetheart.” I saw John waved at me. “Hey,” I moved away from Suzy to meet
I fell on my knees as I struggled to breathe. I truly felt life getting drained out of me. I couldn’t breathe and I could see my hands getting dark. It all felt as though something was eating me up.I glanced at Melanie and she had that proud look on her face that showed how pleased she was to have deceived me. I was a complete fool to think she had regained her senses.The dark tissue was spreading on and on from my palms to my arms. Melanie wasn’t herself anymore and that was a sure fact. But regardless of any other thing, this might be the last time I see my best friend, the Melanie I love and not the one in front of me.With this in mind, despite the evil glare she had on her face and my lack of strength, I summoned every last bit of the strength in me. I held her hands in mine. They felt extremely hot.She arched her brows at me.“I can see you’re a strong one.” She smirked. “You…” I cut her off.“I love you.”She instantly froze.For a moment,
72Melanie’s POV“Stab yourself.”She smirked.“Wh- what?” I stuttered in disbelief.“That’s the only way.” She shrugged. “You have to spill blood.”I scoffed.“Are you kidding me right now?”“No,” she smiled. “Are you ready to cross that boundary?”“Why in the world would she need to stab herself?” Steve frowned.“That’s the only thing that can stop this. You need no further explanation. Are you willing to do it to save your people?” she stared intently at me. “Both the humans and the supernatural.”I sighed as I ran my fingers through my hair. I definitely didn’t expect this. To save everyone completely, I’d make the sacrifice.I heard loud screams which made me turn abruptly. I watched wide-eyed as buildings came crashing down. People began to run out of their houses.However, before they could go far, most of them got hit by flying bricks. I glanced at the source of the turmoil.The dragon was con
Melanie’s POVI pulled up the knife and steadied myself to stand to my feet. Releasing a shaky breath, I began to walk over to the rest of the family as I kept the knife safe in my pocket.Sage was gone. Everyone has been set free from his evil clutches and his destructive ambitions.Walking absentmindedly, I almost lost my balance when I stumbled on something. I averted my gaze from the space and glanced at what made me stumbled. I realized it was Janet’s lifeless body.The tears I never knew I had pent-up flooded my face as I stared at the lifeless body of the girl I called my friend. I sobbed uncontrollably as I fell to her side. Lifting up her cold hands, I pulled her into an embrace.She might have betrayed me but she was once my friend. And she will ever be!“I’m sorry,” I whispered. My body trembled slightly as the feelings I bottled up all burst out with my tears.No matter wha
Melanie's POV"Don't you dare!" I growled when I saw Clara's high hand. In her hand was the supposed sacred knife - that, I recognized.Clara turned to me with surprise evident on her face. But sad for her, 'cause as soon as she turned, she was struck by an electrifying ray that emitted from my hands. She was sent flying across the room.She let out a loud scream when her back came in contact with the furnitures. Crashing sounds filled the atmosphere.I moved closer to her with the unending ray and she got pinned to the tiled floor. I didn't want her to stand up.When I was sure she was trapped and unable to move, I hurriedly traipsed over to Daisy. I pulled her up from the floor and shook her without much force."Daisy?"Her eyes opened slightly before they went close.Her body went cold immediately. I instantly became furious.Clara should pay for this. I don't care if I don't get to kno
Megan's POV"Oh my God! Melanie?" I called in surprise. My eyes watered as they got themselves fixed on my dear daughter.I was so excited to see her here. Even though I didn't know when she got discharged and how she got here, I was still very much glad she was right here in front of my eyes.But before we could go about the mother daughter reunion, Sage spoke up."Well... well... well," he began, saying those words in a music like format. "Look who we have here. I didn't think you'd be up after all we got them to do to you." He stated.No wonder! I kind of knew Sage was the mastermind of all that happened with Melanie. But it was hard to ascertain that fact since he got his job done without any trace.Melanie walked away from me as I teleported over to the rest of my team. The look on Steve's face showed he couldn't be more glad."Nice to finally meet you again," Melanie greeted Sage scornfully. She folded her
Megan's POV"It's a recall spell if you don't know." I heard Morgana's voice.Right there and then, she also came into the picture, alongside Morgan and the army. I smiled.This turned out to be a perfect plan after all."Now, it's a thousand against one." Morgan said with a slight smile.Sage moved back a bit, creating enough space between us all."How come I never knew?" He wondered."That's cause it wasn't an immediate thing. The spell was meant to take time before it takes its effect ... to avoid suspicion." Morgana explained with a sad smile on her face.I wondered why she looked sad despite the smile. Her smile didn't reach her eyes."Who did this?" Sage asked with squinted eyes. "Cause I'm sure this isn't a thing back at the kingdom. This is related to black magic." He frowned."Yeah, it isn't a thing in our world since it's a spell." Morgana shrugged. "But someone went extra miles to pr
Megan's POVI stood at the centre of the city with Steve, Sage and his captives. Sage's eyes never left mine while he waited patiently for me to make my decision.Something kept telling me not to surrender. It kept trying to make me see enough reasons, as to why I needed not go surrender.One reason that kept on hammering was the fact that Sage could actually make me surrender and still not release his captives.One of the many reasons that left me strong-headed was how Sage was my culprit, who I needed to bring to book. If I surrender to him without fighting back, all our efforts from the onset would be a total waste of time and manpower."You're taking much time to decide, Megan." He complained.One thing about him that I've noticed is he always call my name, at any slight opportunity he gets.I ignored him and turned to Steve."What does she mean to you?" I questioned. He doesn't need any
Megan's POVI coughed slightly from the smoke that filled the atmosphere. Everywhere was clouded with smoke and I wondered how much damage Sage has caused to the whole city.I trod along the road carefully, squinting my eyes to see if there was any other person around. Following Sage landed us here and I haven't seen him. The smoke wasn't helping as well. I ensured I held on to Steve carefully.As we continued to move forward, the atmosphere suddenly became clearer. I almost sighed in relief but was caught off guard when an arrow flew my way. Reflexively, I dodged the arrow.My eyes darted towards the direction it came from. I wasn't surprised to see Sage but what surprised me was the army that stood in lines right behind him."This is going to be bloody." I heard Steve mutter behind me."We'll take care of this. Don't be scared." I told him, without turning to look at him. My eyes was fixed on Sage and his army.&nb
