Mr Smith didn't say anything as he was still very weak and his wound was still bleeding.

Mother tried to make him stand on his legs which seemed so hard. I wanted to go and help but then remembered that I just chose father's side.

My heart felt much pain when I saw mother trying to carry Smith on her back like a little baby.

I knew she wouldn't manage him up to home.

I needed to do something. But what? I looked up and down trying to think of something and finally I came up with an idea.

Biting my thumb, my magical ring emerged from the flesh. "Help me out please. I need to go and help my mom but I know father won't allow me to. What do I do now."I whispered to my thumb since I didn't want anyone to hear me. It didn't take long before I got a brilliant idea.

"My shadow. Yes, my shadow would work for me. I will have to leave it here with father and then my original would go to help mother."I thought.

"Wow Artie wow. You are a very intelligent and brilliant woman."I breathed while prais

    "How can I go now. Am too weak to perform the spell so how would I reach there in time."I wondered."You have to find a way. Remember your shadow will remit if you delay."she reminded me.My heart skipped a beat on hearing mom's words so I tried to get up but I was still weak and tired."Oh good Lord! What am I going to do now."I wondered before forcing myself to perform a spell.Fortunately my magic managed to lift me from the floor."Take care mother."I said before vanishing.Since I was weak, the spell didn't take me directly to the throne headquarters instead I landed somewhere near the ocean."Where am I?"I looked around but everything looked new to me but I didn't mind since I didn't have any other options.I decided to rest for some few minutes but unfortunately I fell asleep. This wasn't a minor sleep because it felt like forever. It was do peaceful that I never wished to wake up. "You have to wake up Artie otherwise you will be in huge trouble."I told myself.I tried to open

    "You are right. Am your babies' great grandma. Aren't you happy to see me? Huh?"she said."I don't care who you are and what you want but get this one thing straight, I won't spare you if you dare cause any harm to my babies."I threatened."Of course I won't hurt my only medicine."she said."Medicine? What do you mean?"***HER (Pema)***"Yes. My medicine. Actually I heard Katie telling you everything about my death. I was shockingly surprised when I got to know that my husband had been cheating on me. I guess you know how it feels like since you are a demon too, Nikki had marked heeded me as his mate. And you know how marking affects the female gender, right?It makes us fall crazily and madly in love with that someone who has marked us.I was deeply in love with him. I trusted him blindly. I always thought I was his only love but my trust in him completely shattered after seeing him with another woman, Katie.My brain failed to think straight and that's when my heart told me to kil

    "How's this possible. Why aren't you falling down?" Pema looked shocked and disappointed.Pointing her magical stick to me, I began to fall at a high speed this time.I was about ten to fifteen inches above the water when I suddenly I stopped moving down again but this time it wasn't because of my babies'kick, an invisible force was controlling me from reaching the water. Moving my eyes to look around, I saw Anu and dad at the banks of the Sea. When I was going to call onto them, I saw Anu gesturing to me to keep quiet. Maybe they didn't want to be noticed by this skeleton old woman.When Pema saw me not moving down, she became suspicious. Looking around she didn't see anything since both Anu and father had made themselves invisible.Laughing, "am not a fool as you think I am. Ask your people to stop wasting my time. No one can save you from me today."she said."How did you see them?" I asked."My blood runs in Anu's veins so detecting him is like a game to me you see."she replied.

    Maybe I finally passed out because I never felt anything nor did I hear myself falling and drowning in the Sea.Elsewhere, after mother had summoned the witch's tree, she got the answers she needed and began to fight Pema.Using the spell mother made Pema visible so they could attack her face to face."Where did you take our daughter?" Father furiously asked.Laughing, "these tricks of yours won't help you. So now tell me, where did you take Artie?" Pema asked ignoring father's question."What? You also don't know where Artie disappeared to?"Anu couldn't believe his ears."No Anu. Don't trust this old woman. Am sure she wants to confuse us so we can spare her."father told Anu."Where did you take my wife?"now Anu was angry. As usual his fangs elongated and his crawls too."Come down Anu. Am sure we'll find out if she's telling the truth or not."mother assured him.How will we find out and when shall we? Both my wife and the babies are in danger and I.. I can't do anything about it de

    "How grandma?" Anu asked politely. He was afraid and scared by his grandma's curse. That curse was to affect all his life and the lives of his family, his wife and their children. So it was really necessary for him to be calm and careful about his soon dying grandma."Come here."Pema asked and Anu did so. "Bend over and bite my skull. If you succeed, my curse would become weak and if you don't...then... Consider this as a challenge where you will win or lose.""No grandma. Don't say such things. I have to win this challenge for the sake of my family. Why should they suffer for my mistakes.""Good. So carry on and bite me. You only do it twice and you can't go beyond that. The first time is considered a trial and then the final bite. If your fangs fail to break through and penetrate through my skull, then... Keep in mind that I don't have much time left. I need to go so be quick and careful. You might choose to bite me on delicate part of my skull and lose me before weakening the cur

    "I just don't get why the witch's tree told me that Artie is at the bank of the Sea. I mean the witch's tree never lies which means Artie is somewhere close."mother wondered."Wait a minute. Did Artie bring her phone along. I was thinking of tracing her location."father suggested."Yeah, I remember she had it with her."mother hurried to say."How did you see her with it when you left us with Smith?" Father asked."Well.. I saw that before leaving."she lied. "Mother is right. I also saw her with it which means she came with it. Let's check and see."Anu said."How is this possible? The phone shows that we're very close to her but am not seeing her anywhere.""What's happening? Could it be that the curse has started to work?"father couldn't think straight."Don't say that please. Am sure we will find her soon."mother assured them."Let's help this mermaid and put it back in water. Father said coming closer to the helpless mermaid. Anu and mother walked towards it too.They first admired

    "Artie please wake up. Open your eyes for me dear."Anu cried."She's very tired that's why she has passed out. She wasn't able to breathe well maybe that's why."Katie explained.Two hours later."Pema. Where's she? How did I get here and what did Pema do to my babies."I said the moment I regained my senses."Pema is no more. She's dead. And don't worry because nothing has happened to the babies. They're both fine.""Katie! How are you. How did you come here and why? Is everything fine?""Everything is fine my dear.""Perfect. How's Nikki?""He's fine.""That's cool then. Where did Anu and father go to. They haven't checked on me for hours. What's happening outside?"I asked."Noble called for them.""I don't trust that man at all. I know for a fact that he's up to something bad. I have to go and check."I said trying to get up."I will go instead. You still need to get some rest."Katie stopped me.Katie was shocked after finding Noble's men tying Anu up."What's happening here. Why are

    Fortunately they didn't take much time there."When's the wedding going to take place?"I asked."It's going to take place the day after tomorrow."Anu said."Did Mike agree to this marriage?"I asked."You know it very well that he's a dad's son and he can't say no to his father even if he wants to. It's obvious that he would accept this marriage because he loves you too. It's visible on his face that his heart skips a beat whenever he comes somewhere near you and now that he has gotten a chance am sure he can't misuse it by doing any mistake.""Are you being serious. How do you know how he feels about me. You aren't his heart nor are you his mind so who are you to know what and how he feels about this person and that one.""You won't believe me that easily but let's wait for his say on this matter. Am sure his answer would tell you how he feels about you. If he says yes, it would mean that he loves you and if he says no, then he doesn't love you.""Is it a challenge now?""Of course i

    My heart jumped with joy and happiness after reading the letter. I couldn't wait to see my father again. I couldn't find sleep since my mind was very busy imagining how the surprise would be like..It was approaching to four o'clock in the morning when my heart skipped a beat and my mind went blank. I thought that maybe I was very excited to share the news with the family so I had to wake up and make noise through singing so that everyone's sleep could be interrupted and it really worked. Everybody woke up with a frowned face because they were angry with me at the moment."I have good news for you all.. I meant to say that father has called us all. He said he wants to surprise us."I said with a big smile."What's wrong with you? When did you see him?"Anu couldn't believe."Read this. I don't have to meet up with him in order to communicate with him, we're demons after all."I sighed."Read it for us Anu. Am sure Artie isn't joking about this, right Artie?"Nikki said."It's true Grandpa

    "But who had possessed you and why?"Nikki asked."I'll tell you later. What's very important right now is to conduct this ritual and let them inside first."she said."Alright then. But how will you do the ritual when the holy water isn't enough. I meant to say that there are only five Jerry cans of holy water yet they're....."he pointed."I think we'll have to seek help from the witch's tree once again."she looked to be lost in thoughts as she spoke."What are you waiting for then."Mother then tried to summon the witch's tree but in vain. We thought that maybe it was because of our presence and she had to walk away from the crowd but again the tree didn't show up.A minute later, a twig came and fell on my head and turned into a rocket immediately. It was the same rocket that Carlos gave me. I had left it at the ocean bank hoping that he'd one day collect it from there because I had no hopes of seeing him again. Moreso I didn't want to keep it as it would remind me of the best momen

    After some time, the other three woke up too. Mani immediately recognized me however his brother Manu just stood there, staring at me as if I was a stranger. "How are you mother."Mani hugged me. I couldn't answer because I was driven away by thoughts and sorrow. "My own son doesn't recognize me?"I breathed deeply before looking him in the eye. "Manu dear, don't you know who I am?"I asked politely. I didn't want to force things."I know you very well. I know how you left dad and I and disappeared. You don't love me at all. Dad might've forgiven you but I... I will never forgive you for neglecting me like that. You're the reason why I went through all this."he said and for a moment my mind went blank. I didn't have what to say to him or how to explain things to him. I just stared at him, speechless."Manu dear, it's not like how you think. Your mother loves both of you equally. I agree she left us but trust me when I say that she did what was right at the moment. She wanted to save y

    On opening it, I couldn't stop crying because of what was written there, ' best friends forever'."You'll forever be remembered my dear friend."I said.The girls did their best to put me in good mood but my worry for my family was too much. "Don't worry ma'am, am sure that cousin of yours will help you and very soon your family will come back."Remi comforted."I don't think he'll, after all he's a horrible person. He's a murderer remember and I don't trust him at all."Rema pointed sharply."How can I explain to you that Carlos is only a pure soul and he would never think of killing someone no matter what. He only took the blame for my sake."I thought. "I think we should trust him once, let's see if he can do something good for anyone."I said."As you say madam. And anyway ma'am, do you mind if we call you auntie because to me you're like my real auntie.""Of course I won't mind at all. You're my little angels and angels should only be loved and nothing else. It's okay you can call me

    "Why won't you dear?"he asked politely."Because the woman you're going to propose to is already married.""Ohh! You're right about that but you've forgotten that her husband is dead now which makes her single."he lied."Why do I have a feeling that you're lying to us? My mom always said that when someone is telling a lie, he can't look you in the eye and that's what you're doing."one of them pointed. This made me notice something about the two of them, one was introvert and the other was the opposite. She was so talkative I must say."Where's your mom's corpse?"I asked them."We're sorry madam. We conducted the last rituals by ourselves. We knew you were going through a lot that's why we never came to bother you.""I don't believe you, someone else must have helped you because I don't think you could do all that alone.""But we did madam."she said raising a brow."What made you disappear after healing my husband's wound. I didn't understand."I wanted answers to my questions."Am not

    "No. I refuse to believe this. My Anu can't be dead. I know you've taken him somewhere. You have to tell me what you've done to him, tell me now."I grabbed his arm with all my strength."What are you doing Artie? I know this is hard for you to believe but am afraid it's the truth... your husband is dead now."he said.I couldn't stop myself but to slap him so hard on his face. "Shut up! Do not say another word about my husband, do you hear me?""I won't say anything if that's what you really want. I think I should leave you and your problems alone because am tired of explaining myself to you that I'm not a bad person and my intentions are good yet no one is willing to believe in me. Am sorry if I troubled you in any way."he said and vanished.At that time I didn't care at all. I was only worried about my family. "Would they come back?"I kept asking myself. All I had to do was to wait for them with hopes that they'd surely come back.Some days elapsed with no sign of their return. As a

    Mother had to leave and go back home. "Artie, keep my words in mind."she said before disappearing."This woman also! Why can't see that all this is happening because Anu wanted to keep his powers and this decision of his is stopping my children from coming back to me. I need to do something, but what?"I thought. We couldn't speak to each other for two days although Anu tried to cheer me up sometimes.On the third day of the second week, the old man in my dreams came and appeared before Anu and I. "I've been watching you and I really like your patience. You still have hopes that your sons will come back even after all these days. Wow, keep it up."he said."Who are you?"Anu barked at him."He...is the same old man I told you about.""Old man?""Yes, he's the one who always come in my dreams."I explained. "What brings you here."I asked."I came here to help you after seeing how much you both love your sons."he said smiling."How are you going to help? And who called for your help?"Anu sh

    I then took her to where I had left Anu. The moment we came very close to him, I started to see some improvement. "What kind of magic does this girl possess?"I asked myself."Here he is."I said."Oh! He's my uncle."she jumped in excitement after looking at his face."Your uncle? How? I mean do you know him?""Yes, he's the same man in the picture that mom used to show to us. She said we should call him uncle, that's why. Oh, am so happy but..."she couldn't complete."What?"I asked curiously."I don't understand one thing, my mom used to tell us that uncle doesn't have a wife that's why he wanted to marry my mom so how come you're claiming to be his wife?""My worries are slowly coming true, Cucu's blood is haunting us."I breathed deeply. "Well...we married recently, that's why."I lied."Let me heal my uncle first but before that, you need to hide somewhere because my magic can't work when someone is watching me.""Alright then I'll go and hide. You'll call me when you're done, okay?"

    It was almost coming to midday and our kids hadn't returned yet, there was no any sign of their return the thing that caused locomotion in my stomach."No, the old man's words shouldn't come true."I prayed inwardly. I was getting worried and restless that I thought of summoning my mother. I felt like sharing the weird dream with her. I knew she could interpret it for me but no... she wasn't allowed to come see me at the moment as only Manu's parents and siblings were accepted."What should I do now."I didn't know that I said it loudly. "What, what do you want to do?"Anu asked."It's nothing."I lied."Still worried about the dream, right?""Ahhh no. I mean am not worried at all."I said giving him a plastic smile. "Am here, nothing is going to happen to our sons I promise. They'll have to come back for us no matter what."he assured.I always loved the courageous version of his. It always got me fall in love with him over and over again. "I love you Mr Anu."I said coming closer to him an
