2022-09-14 00:49:11I woke up in an empty room the next morning. Stretching and yawning, I stood from the bed, scratching the itch on my butt before walking to the bathroom I was supposed to share with a roommate who was still absent.
I didn't know who she was, but I was certain that I had a roommate who would share the room with me. The extra bed in my room was a dead giveaway. The person's name would only appear on the door underneath my name when she arrived.After I finished relieving myself, I came out searching for any message Adalyn might have left behind, but after searching to no avail, I stopped and sighed. It was the weekend, which meant there were no classes till Monday. So I wondered where she had gone.The sound of a chirping bird made me turn towards the window where Milli was perched looking at me with her blue eyes. Yawning again, I fed the tiny bird.After two hours of not hearing from Adalyn, I decided to go in search of her. I took a quick shower and threw on a pair of white leggings and a red hoodie to go with my hair. Afterward, I combed my stubborn hair into submission, though not without wincing at the pain the action introduced to my scalp.I opened the door, my mind set on going to Adalyn's room but I walked into a familiar sweet-smelling wall of muscles. We both stayed like that for a little longer than necessary until I stepped back and craned my neck to see the Alpha's face."What are you doing? Why are you here?" I asked, flushing with embarrassment. I hoped he didn't notice how slow I was at moving away from his addictive scent. Although I highly doubted that."Which do you want me to answer first?" He asked, smiling down at me, I frowned up at him in return."Just answer both." I snapped at him.He chuckled and brought out his hands from behind his back, hands I hadn't noticed had been hidden behind him before then. He brought out a beautifully wrapped bouquet of fresh moonflowers, their silver petals looked like they were sprinkled with tiny glitters. "Happy Birthday, lady red. Can I come in?" He asked but didn't wait for a response before gently shoving me aside and entering the room.I frowned, watching him place the flowers on the window sill, "How did you know my room? Adalyn told you about my birthday, didn't she? Why did you get me flowers? you don't even know me."He laughed. "Which question do you w…what the hell is that?" He asked, his demeanor suddenly changing, he grabbed me and pulled me behind him, his attention fixed on something above my head. I followed his gaze and screamed in fear.On my ceiling was a very thick and dark fog that seemed to be stuck in one spot but had what seemed to be thousands of dark wiggling creatures inside it. Immediately, a very loud and monstrous howl echoed throughout the school. Three more howls filled up the air after that.Oh shit! I thought, my heart beating rapidly at the sounds of imminent danger.Related chapters

"Adalyn!" Alix whispered in worry, his wide eyes flying to me. As one we both began to run out of the room and out of the female hostel, along with other girls on the same floor who had heard the howls."What's going on?" I heard someone ask another but I didn't wait to hear a response. Alix ran into Adalyn's room calling her name, but her room was empty of her. "Where is she?" I asked him in worry."She was supposed to be here waiting for me to bring you over." He responded, his fingers combing through his hair. I didn't ask why, I didn't need to. I guessed Adalyn wanted to throw a small surprise party.A whimpering sound came from the other side of the room drawing my attention. It was Lenda, Adalyn's quiet roommate."Go look for her. I'll take care of Lenda." I said to Alix who didn't look pleased. He looked like he just found himself in between a rock and a hard place. My eyes widened when I realized that he was worried for me, someone he just met. Touched beyond imagination, I

Pursuing the warriors as quietly as possible was not an easy task, to be honest, but I succeeded in doing so. The wolves and vampires were too preoccupied with what was outside the gate to smell me, or it was probably because they were a little far from me.When I arrived at the gate, I let out a quiet gasp at what I was seeing outside the ward. The sound of the roar that had alerted us of danger gave us a clue as to how big of a danger we were in. Though the monsters that made that sound were terrifying to behold.What I was staring at were creatures that resembled hybrid experiments gone wrong. The monsters were as tall as the trees in the forest. Their arms were so long they used them to walk along with their two legs, like the gorillaens I had once seen in the zoo back at Coven Community.These beasts had huge heads like wolves, fangs as long as my arm, their eyes were snake-like, and their huge bodies had thick muscles designed by a map of veins. They had long scorpion tails. Th

It took me longer than it should have to answer him. I was shocked that of all people, I had to cross paths with the alpha of Alix's rival pack and that I was feeling drawn to him. I did not know he was back already."Mistcats got your tongue?" He mocked in a husky voice, drawing closer to me. I almost gasped out loud at the warmth that became slightly warmer but not uncomfortable.Scowling in irritation, I snapped at him, "Have you ever heard of personal space? Just get the fuck out of my way." "Personal space? Never heard of it. Will you enlighten me, pretty please?" He replied, obviously fucking with me.I loured at him and started to walk around him, intent on ignoring him but he blocked my path.Frowning, I moved again to the left, and he followed. Gritting my teeth in barely suppressed anger, I moved to the right, but still he moved with me, smirking.Finally, I snapped at him. "What do you want?""Your name." He replied, leaning down to my face level, he added in a low voice,

It didn't take us long to settle into one of the vacant classrooms in Essex Hallway. After they had settled in, they all looked at me, waiting. Combing my fingers through my thick hair, I began."It seems that there are secrets in this school that I didn't know about." They all frowned in confusion."What secrets?" Lenda asked, no longer looking like the terrified girl I had accompanied to the Hall.I told them about the uniformed warriors, the absence of teachers and the principal at the gate, the strange scorpion-wolf hybrid that was intent on slamming the ward down to get to me, and Erix being among the warriors. I purposely left out my interaction with him and what I had felt with him. I didn't think Alix would be pleased. After I concluded, they were all quietly surprised.Adrika broke the silence first, her hard face looking even harder as she frowned in thought. "That's strange, indeed. I've never heard of these uniformed warriors before.""Erix told you they were there to prot

Hey, freak!" Adalyn groaned and rubbed her hands across her face tiredly. She stopped and turned to face the Clique of Mean Girls, who were walking with Erix and his packmates. They had stopped harassing her after what I did, but I guessed their silence had lasted long enough."I'm not a freak," Adalyn defended."You sure are. The freak omega daughter of an Alpha. Come to think of it, it shouldn't be a surprise. Compared to our Alpha back at home, your father is a weakling. It makes sense that he sired a weakling." Rhaegal said, smirking.Erix was watching the interaction with an amused expression on his face. Two of his female packmates, a girl with ebony hair and another with lavender-colored hair, clung to him. I had been meaning to talk to him after yesterday's meeting but didn't see him until now.His eyes met mine and he smiled at me. I felt a tug in my heart at that but ignored it. "Hello, Regina. We meet again. You look wonderful today."I snarled, ignoring Adalyn's confused g

"Alix! Reggy!" Adalyn's voice came from outside the great hall entrance. She had been waiting for us alongside Lenda and the pack.Adrika and Ace looked ready to jump into battle, while the rest of the group wore different expressions ranging from fear, and worry to horror.When we got to the Hall entrance, two things happened at once. The scorpion-wolves arrived and a swirling dark hole appeared before us, a red figure flew from within it before it closed back.We all stared at the figure in shock. It was a tall woman with wild red hair and flawless skin but when she turned to face us, I gasped. Her face was a reflection of mine. The only difference between us was our eyes. My eyes were gray whereas hers were all black, with no whites. A dark witch."What the hell?" Alix muttered."Hello daughter," the dark witch greeted in a voice that sounded sweet as honey but spiced with venom. I frowned and stepped back, Alix moved to stand in front of me and his sister was clinging to my arm

CHAPTER 12"Wakey Wakey, sleepy head," Karissa said in a sing-song tone in my ear, her breath brushing against my cheek.I groaned awake and sat up. Karissa sat up too and grinned down at me. She was sitting beside me on an unfamiliar bed, in a small unfamiliar room that was painted a light green color. "Slept well?" She asked, still smiling. There was a manic gleam in her eyes that terrified me. I knew without a doubt that she was a nutcase. A dark and powerful nutcase and I were so screwed."Why am I here? What do you want with me?" I asked, trying to control my fear. I wasn't one to panic easily, but being in the presence of a dark, powerful, and crazy witch in an unknown Location was enough to scare me like hell.Karissa gave me a look that said, 'did you hit your head?' before answering, "I already told you, baby girl. I want to train you. Your powers are going to do things for me that I couldn't achieve alone, even with my powers."I shook my head, "you are mistaken. I don't h

"Your magic is a part of you as I'm sure you would know by now. You don't need to think too hard about it. Now, what I want you to do is create monsters in your head, including every quality you want them to have, then summon them into being." Karissa teaching me magic with patience wasn't something I had expected. It was scaring me because it could mean that she planned to keep me here for a long time. We had been practicing magic for three days now outside the building where I was being held captive and I still couldn't create monsters like I had done before In school subconsciously. Even with that, she did not hurt me or get angry at me. And that terrified me.I had decided to do as she wanted, only because I intended to use it against her. For everything she did, she would pay."Do you need a whistle to begin or do you want to continue staring at me?" Karissa asked sarcastically with her eyebrow raised.Taking in deep breaths, I attempted to do as she instructed. I wasn't an ima

Are you okay?" I heard Erix's voice from behind me that evening when I decided to visit mivaeria at the stables. I had been stroking the beautiful horned horse when he arrived. I knew before he spoke that he was behind me, thanks to the bond, so I wasn't startled.I shrugged but didn't reply. I was still scared and worried about Karissa. And to make things worse, Vivian had sent a message that Coven Community was under attack from Karissa's monsters. She had ordered me to stay at the academy for my safety when I told her I was leaving the academy to help out. I didn't know what Karissa's plan was but it was not good. I hadn't been mind controlled since the last time, and it worried me too because it meant she had something else in mind.Erix's hand rested on my shoulder, instantly filling me with warmth and peace. I sighed and closed my eyes, reluctantly soaking up the feeling.He gently massaged my shoulder. "You can talk to me."I almost snorted in disbelief but held it in. "I'm fi

Two days later, Vivian left for the Coven community after repeatedly asking me to go back with her, insisting I wasn't safe in N.A. But I couldn't leave my friends behind. And I was happy here anyway. Alix, Adalyn, and I had stayed with her whenever we were free before she left. I found It sweet that Alix was willing to spend some time knowing my family when he had other things to do. I had been carrying the guilt of keeping Erix a secret from all of them, including the mind control problem. I was hoping to resolve it quietly with Vivian's help. The mind-control was the only proof we had that Karissa hadn't backed down. She had not shown herself to us yet. Honestly, I was worried that the reason she hadn't shown herself to us was that she was planning something big. I later been in the dark, especially when the lives of people I loved were in danger. I'd lost a friend because of her, I couldn't imagine losing another. It would kill me. Erix, to my shock, had also visited Vivian bef

Three days later, I was convinced of three things. One, Something was terribly wrong with me because I had found myself being mind controlled twice after the first time, heading towards the same place. And each time, Erix was the one who snapped me out of it. He was now a constant presence in my life. I had been feeling his eyes on me whenever he was around me which was frequent now. The strange warmth and sense of peace I had been feeling around Erix were getting a little bit stronger by the day. I noticed it became worse whenever I wielded a large amount of magic in class during demonstrations. I had been trying to ignore it but it was getting harder each day.Two, I still haven't sorted out whatever I was feeling for Alix, who was now closer to me than before. I wasn't going to let him go because of a stupid pull toward Erix. Three, I loved my new roomie. She was the best roommate I could ever ask for. Just like I had clicked with Adalyn on the first day, I also clicked with Dhar

"My roommate was called back home after Karissa's attack. His parents withdrew him from the school for his safety. So we have the room to ourselves," Alix explained when we sneaked into his dorm room. Everywhere was completely quiet now but the lights were still on. I had three hours to canoodle and be naughty.I grinned up at Alix when he quietly shut the door. His eyes sparkled with interest at what I was up to. "Well then, Mr. Alix, I guess we have to make good use of this wonderful opportunity and spend less time talking."He chuckled softly but groaned in pleasure when I caressed his chest. Encouraged by his reaction, I traced my hand with my lips but stopped. Frustrated by the clothing barrier, I unbuttoned his cotton shirt and slipped it down his arms which immediately wrapped themselves around my waist.Moving back a little from his arms, I unzipped his pants and dropped them, revealing striped black and white boxers. The huge bulge in his boxers made me satisfied and grinne

That evening, Alix and Adalyn reluctantly returned to their rooms to give me time to rest after I yawned so many times during our conversation. I was asleep when the sound of my door opening woke me up, making me bolt upright, my heart beating rapidly. Being kidnapped by a psycho could do that to a person.A tall beautiful girl with long curly brown hair walked into the room but paused when she saw me staring at her. She broke into a warm smile and came toward me extending her hands, which I took.Hello. My name is Dhariea. You must be Regina," she said in a soft voice.Dhariea Ellentra, according to our room door which was now displaying both our names instead of just mine.I smiled at her, "Yes, I am. It's a pleasure to finally meet you," I replied, standing up and straightening my tousled hair.She gave me a wide grin, exposing straight white teeth. "Same here. I heard about what happened to you before I arrived, I'm sorry you went through all that. Since I'm here, we will become

"Mister Wilkins was right. Karissa would be back." Alix growled, his hand fisted.I had narrated every detail to them, whereas I had purposely kept out some parts of the truth while narrating everything to the principal. I didn't tell him about my vampire, demon, and witch heritage. I wasn't ready to divulge the truth to the world just yet.Adalyn and Alix had been stunned and speechless when I told them about my demon side. After we tried to guess how a person could have demon genes in them to no avail, we dropped the subject.Adalyn looked very worried, "If Karissa planned to take over the three worlds, then we have to stop her. But I worry about something, what if she could achieve her goal without you? Could that be why she stole that artifact from the school?"Alix cussed under his breath, drawing my attention to him. That was a first. But fuck, if Adalyn was right, then we were in trouble. But there were loopholes in that theory."Why then did she go through all that length to k

When Mivaeria got to N.A, startling the guards that had been stationed at the school ward, I saw the damage that had been done to the school. I was surprised the ward had been erected so fast, especially since the elder witches had been killed.Some parts of the school walls were cracked and some of the trees around the school were blackened as if they had been blasted by fire or magic.I landed before the ward and climbed off Mivaeria, who snorted out steam."Who are you? State your mission," One of the guards questioned. The others were staring at Mivaeria in awe."I'm Regina Murghan, a student of this school. I was…" The guards' sudden movement surprised me, causing me to pause my introduction. They seemed to know who I was. Before I could process what was happening, the ward dissolved.One of the guards stepped towards me but gave Mivaeria a wide berth and spoke to me, "I will escort you to Mister Wilkin's office after we drop your… ride at the stable. I hope it won't give us any

"That's it, girl. I guess I was wrong. We will keep up the training and see if you can wield the other two elements, which are the most powerful of the four." Karissa told me, both of us staring at my handiwork. A bubble of water was floating before us in a huge circle. Floating around it were pieces of earth. I had successfully and surprisingly controlled earth and water handily, but not fire and air after three days of intense training. It was still more than I had thought I was capable of, so I was happy. I wasn't an anomaly after all. I've spent a total of seven days with Karissa and learned a lot more than I had in all my years at the coven community. But I had a question I needed an answer to, so I asked. "Why did you bind my powers to only unlock after my sixteenth birthday?"She took her gaze from my magic to me. Her black eyes seemed to reach deep into my soul. "So you wouldn't be overwhelmed by your powers. Having such great powers at a young age could have affected you, p

"Who is my father?" I asked her as I ate and drank the food Karissa had summoned for me since I was yet to try it myself."Your father's name was Daemon. He was a vampire, witch, and demon." Karissa answered from her spot by the window. I was grateful for the space even though she had not been violent since the first time she had flung me. She had been surprisingly normal. My eyes widened at her in shock, my hand pausing halfway to my mouth. "How is that possible?" I asked.Even though interspecies marriages happened from time to time, it was unheard of for a person on Mistworld to be a demon. Demons couldn't stay long in MistWorld. According to what I heard, MistWorld was toxic to them if they stayed too long."Your father was a rarity and the most powerful being that walked MistWorld after the Elder god and goddesses themselves." "You keep talking as if he's dead," I didn't know how I felt about a dead father I didn't know, but if he was as evil as Karissa, then he was better off
