Arianna sat on the bed downcast, Brianna had explained how the dignitaries had stopped being on their side and how she had always covered up for them.

“Mother didn’t want you feeling this way, that has been why she refused to inform you”

“I didn’t enjoy lying to my daughter but I had no other options”

“I even went as far as visiting them one after the other to find out what was going on”

“They all humiliated me and acted as tho I was a beggar,” Brianna said.

Arianna looked up at her Mother with teary eyes, she fought hard to hold back the tears but couldn’t, “It’s okay to cry it all out” Brianna remarked, and at that second tears rolled down Arianna’s cheeks uncontrollably.

There was a knock on Brianna’s door, “Come in Brian” she said.

“Good afternoon Mother,” Brian said.

“Afternoon Brian”

“I sent for you, please have your seat” Brianna stated and Brian sat instantly.

“Ari explained all that transpired between you both on your way back from school to me,” Brianna said.

    “How about we eat out?” Brianna asked Brian.“That wouldn’t be necessary, I could fix something for us to eat” Brian responded.“We should eat out”“That way I would be able to hear what people have to say about those that just moved into the pack,” Brianna remarked.“You don’t think no one would want to talk about it in your presence?” Brian asked.“I wouldn’t be going as the late Alpha’s wife,” Brianna said.“I’m confused” Brian mentioned.“I would disguise!” Brianna said.“Wow”“That sounds interesting!” Brian exclaimed.“Will Ari be going with us?” Brian asked.“I doubt that besides she still needs more time”“We would get something for her on our way back,” Brianna said.“Can I make a suggestion?” Brian questioned.“Sure” Brianna replied.“How about I go do this alone?”“That way it would be easier,” Brian said.“True!”“it would be easier for you to disguise than me,” Brianna remarked.“Exactly my thought!” Brian said.“How can I thank you enough?” Brianna asked giving him a big

    The alarm rang, waking both Arianna and Brian, Arianna rolled to the right side of the bed to mute it with her eyes closed, she wasn’t conscious of the fact that she wasn’t in her room nor Brianna’s and the alarm wasn’t on the side of the bed.She stretched forth her hand reaching for the alarm, she lost patience as her hand touched nothing, and the noise kept on upsetting her.Opening her eyes in anger, she realized she wasn’t in her room, instantly she looked at the wall clock “It’s morning!” She yelled and Brian woke up due to how loud her yell was.“I can’t believe I spent the night here,” Arianna said jumping out of his bed.“Well, you did,” Brian said in a low tone.Arianna didn’t bother replying as she dashed out of his room straight to her room, she hurriedly prepared for school and rushed into the kitchen to fix breakfast.She was on the stairs when she saw Brianna setting the dining table, “Did you even sleep at all?”“Good morning to you too my dear daughter” “And yes I di

    The next day at school, Arianna arrived a bit earlier than usual, she made sure to look her best and didn’t forget to wear her perfume.She was in class when Alice arrived, “Good morning Alice” she said smiling, Alice paused and looked all around her and finally faced Arianna.“You’re referring to me?” Alice asked.“Of course yes”“Except we have another Alice amongst us already,” Arianna said still smiling.“Well, Good morning to you too” Alice replied and went to have her seat.Arianna walked up to her seat and sat next to her “How are you settling?”“I can see you made a few friends already,” Arianna said.Alice gave Arianna a doubting look as she refused to answer her question.“Okay”“I should do this the right way” Arianna mumbled but was sure to be audible for Alice.“I’m sorry I acted irrationally towards you yesterday”“I regret it”“Didn’t mean to, I was just in a really terrible mood” Arianna said to Alice.“Are you always in a bad mood?” Alice asked.“What?”“No” Arianna r

    At exactly 2 am, Arianna snuck into her room, “I wouldn’t be able to finish my assignments”“All thanks to Brian!” She lamented as she carried her school bag.She sat in front of her mirror, placed her books on the dressing table attached to the mirror, and began to write her assignments.After a while, she started to develop body pains, which made her retire to bed with her books.While lying on the bed using her chest, she continued with her assignments, she looked up at the wall clock “I doubt I would be able to sleep” she mumbled.It was a few minutes past three, and Arianna began to yawn uncontrollably and her eyes were beginning to feel heavy, “A five-minute rest should do” she said as she dropped her pen and closed her eyes.“I ought to set the alarm for 3:30 am,” Arianna thought and instantly stood up to do just as she had thought, she returned to bed thereafter.Arianna didn’t wake up until 5:30 am, thanks to the alarm.She struggled to open her eyes while rubbing her fingers

    “Just wanted to know a few things about you, especially now that we’re friends” Arianna replied after a brief silence.“I think it’s best we focus on knowing each other and leave family out of this” Alice mentioned.“My bad” “Is there a reason you do not like talking about them?”“They stay right here in the pack right?” Arianna questioned.“But I just said we stop talking about family!” Alice yelled.“I wasn’t talking about them, I only asked random questions about them” Arianna snapped.“Okay, I’m sorry”“Nothing about family anymore,” Arianna said.“That would be better” Alice replied.“About the weird girl, my seatmate, do you know why she’s like that?”“No” Alice replied sharply.“I heard you two moved down here together, you should at least know a few things and her” Alice pestered.“Wait, is this a question and answer session?” Alice asked wearing a frown.“No”“We’re only getting to know ourselves better” Arianna replied.“Then let’s talk about ourselves! Talk about you” Alic

    The principal was about to make his way into the clinic, “She was brought in dead” he heard a nurse say, without hesitating he barged into the clinic.“She was what?!”“What do I tell her parents?”“Look, I need you both to go in there and make sure she’s breathing again whatever it takes or you both lose your jobs!”“You aren’t getting paid just to gossip around!”“Do your fucking Job!” The principal yelled.There was tension among the nurses as they ran in the opposite direction “You both should come right here!” He screamed and both the nurses came running.“Where do you think you’re headed?!”“Right there is the way to the emergency unit,” He said in a low tone pointing in a direction.“Sorry,” the nurses said one after the other and both ran out of his sight.“This mustn’t be true!”“I would lose my job and maybe spend the rest of my life in jail for incompetency,” The principal said aloud pacing.“You should get a police report as soon as possible to avoid controversies in case

    “Your guys probably didn’t check well,” the principal said.“You didn’t just refer to my team as incompetent”“How about we go check together?” Black asked.“Okay,” he said looking exhausted.They both left the clinic and went to confirm what Black had just said and it happened to be true, “How did this happen?” He asked Black.“Well, I ought to be the one asking” Black responded.“I know nothing about this!” He protested.“Does anyone have access to the CCTV apart from you?” Black inquired.“Yes, a couple of people do like the vice principal and the security men” He responded.“You can leave for the clinic, I will reach out to you if I have further questions,” Black said.“I hope this is all a dream and that I will wake up soon” he mumbled on his way.He got to the clinic and asked about Brianna’s health, he was told she wasn’t responding to treatment yet, and Brian came rushing in not long after.“What happened to Ari?” He demanded touching the principal’s shoulders with his hands.

    “You mean the Alice I’m on my way to see?” The principal inquired.“Never mind” the nurse responded and ran off, Brian and the principal turned back staring as the nurse ran, and they proceeded to the ward thereafter.“Can’t find her” the principal said after searching the ward thoroughly using his eyes.“It all makes sense now, Alice is missing!” Brian declared.“Wait, what?” The principal said shaking his head funnily.“The nurse who ran past us asked if we had seen her,” Brian said.“It might be a mixup”“She could have gone to the restroom or somewhere nearby,” the principal remarked.“You should confirm from the nurse, I would go see Ari,” Brian said and walked away.The principal went straight to the reception and found the nurse narrating what just happened to a colleague of hers.“You mean to say Alice is missing and she’s nowhere to be found on the premises?!” He yelled.“Yes,” the nurse stuttered slightly scratching her hair.“Go check the CCTV!” He yelled at the nurse.“The

    “She mentioned something about her being a witch, I’m not so sure she knew what she was saying,” Brian said.“Yes, she is,” Arianna said.“Alice is truly a witch?!”“All this while?” “She has been pretending!” Brian yelled.“Yeah, she would witches are frowned upon in your pack after all” Selene cuts in.“But I’ve been at her place for months training, I never for once saw you here” Arianna protested.“Our meeting was agreed to be kept a secret, he was afraid Alice might have eyes on him”“He comes here disguising and you were always training those times, you wouldn’t even notice him,” Selene remarked.“And you didn’t mention anything to me?” Arianna protested.“Yes, since you both weren’t working against each other”“If I had told you wouldn’t be able to conquer Alice, you might have developed cold feet and not want to challenge her in a fight even when the fight was necessary” Selene mentioned.“The potion took roughly two months to be ready, hence the reason I insisted your traini

    “That is a question for the moon goddess and not me,” Selene remarked.“I wouldn’t get answers to any of my questions?” Arianna inquired.“Brian will explain all you need to know to you,” Selene said.“I do not ever want to see that betrayal”“He could hurt me,” Arianna said.“He’ll explain everything to you when he comes,” Selene remarked.“He’s coming here?”“You came to save me as he approached me remember, you knew he wanted to harm me”“And now you allow him to come here?”“How did he find this place?” Arianna asked.“Brian isn’t what you think of him right now, hear from him, and then you can judge him”“He won’t hurt you, trust me” Selene mentioned.“When is he coming?”“You’ll be by my side throughout his stay right?” Arianna inquired.“If that would make you feel safe”“He would be here in no time” Selene responded.Arianna and Selene remained in the living room, awaiting Brian’s arrival, after a couple of hours he arrived.“Ari,” he said smiling as he stood close to her.“Do

    “You mentioned you had something important to do to her earlier before the end” A soldier whispered to Alice.“I’ve decided to pay her last respect by letting her die before taking it away from her” Alice responded.“Go ahead!” She instructed.A soldier came out with the well-sharped sword, as he raised it Arianna closed her eyes and awaited her death.Arianna began to hear swords clashing, she opened her eyes and wondered what was happening, she found out a group of soldiers were attacking Alice’s soldiers and within the twinkle of an eye they wiped them out.Alice, Arianna, and the new set of soldiers remained on the spot and stared at one another.“Where are you from?!” Alice yelled.“From this pack” they all replied.“We heard you have powers but we came prepared for you,” A voice said.Alice and Arianna simultaneously turned to have a look at who it was, “Brian!” Alice yelled.“Brian baby, your soldiers mixed things up, they were supposed to come for Arianna’s soldiers and not mi

    Alice snatched the sword from her and used it on her feet pining it to the ground.Arianna groaned in pain as she struggled to take the sword off her feet, “Nice stunt, you dare attack me with bees”“I’ve been too gentle on you and I think I underestimated you”“But I guarantee you you aren’t leaving this place alive!” Alice said to Arianna while groaning.Arianna managed to remove the sword and leaped towards Alice with the sword in her right hand.“It is you who wouldn’t leave this place alive” Arianna mentioned and she paused while her feet continued to bleed, she tore a piece of her cloth again and tied it around her feet to suppress the bleeding.She tried attacking Alice with the sword but she dodged all of Arianna’s attempts, she leaped as she continued to try.“You have the last chance to do as I say and walk out alive”“The choice is yours”“I should round this up quickly before the cops get here,” Alice said.Immediately she began to float in the air and her hair blew alongs

    Arianna walked through the wilderness as he made her way to her pack, she gently inhaled the fresh air and she wore a triumphant look, behind her were her soldiers.Arianna made it through the wilderness and was now in the residential area, “A lot has changed in the pack, feels like I’ve been gone for a decade” She said to herself.As she continued with her journey, she drew a lot of attention from the pack members as many wondered why she was walking around the pack instead of being in a car.Some of the pack members acknowledged her presence with so much fear that she began to think why such was happening and then she figured out they thought she was Alice.The soldiers followed Arianna, pretending as tho they didn’t know each other.Arianna arrived at the mansion and heaved a deep sigh of relief, she knocked on the gate gently and the gatekeeper opened up.“Madam, Good afternoon ma”“I’m sorry I took so long, I didn’t know it was you, I thought you had been in all this while”“Plea

    About two months later, Arianna was with Selene in the living room, “Silver assured me you’ve completed your training”“Even though I feel you should take more time I wouldn’t want us taking a huge risk either as it might be too late by then,” Selene said.“You shouldn’t worry yourself, I’m now as good as Silver” Arianna teased.“Remember all I told you and do not forget to bring me Alice’s heart” Selene teased.“You’ll be leaving as early as tomorrow”“I never knew your training would take months, but all is for the best,” Selene said.“I don’t think I would ever be able to repay you for what you have done for me,” Arianna remarked.“Why don’t you leave that and focus on getting the pack, only then we talk about that,” Selene said.“You mentioned something before I commenced the ritual and you haven’t said anything about it since then”“I didn’t want to be too forward by asking, it’s about the price I have to pay for the ritual” Arianna mentioned.“Why don’t you come to see me after

    “A price?”“I hope I’m not paying with someone else’s life,” Arianna said.“But we wouldn’t know what the price would be until the ritual is completed,” Selene said.“What if I can’t pay the price?” Arianna asked.“There’s no price that can’t be paid, I would give you time to go and think about it then get back to me” Selene responded.“I’m running out of time, what if I leave now and the potion loses its effectiveness before I make it back here” Arianna lamented.“The choice is yours” “Would you take the bold step or just await a miracle?” Selene inquired.“I’ll take the bold step, at this point I am so desperate”“I need to return to the pack before Alice soils my Father’s legacy she needs to be stopped as soon as possible,” Arianna said.“We shall commence right away, give me a moment,” Selene said and went into her room.“The moon goddess once again came to my rescue,” Arianna remarked.“It’s going to be a three-day ritual,” Selene said coming out of her room.“Will I be staying

    “I should have known he wasn’t any other different from Lucas” “I mustn’t let this get to me, all I have to do is fight back and take revenge and I will be starting from Alice”“Once again, I was betrayed,” Arianna said to herself as she roamed about in the shadows.“How could he sleep with Alice?”“I thought he was on my side, Alice didn’t even do much before she got him”“What a cheap man!”“I have to fight back before this potion loses its effect, I need to surprise the latest couples, Alice and Brian”“But how can I do that when I have no idea of what to do,” she said aloud as she sat next to a tree.Arianna began to reminisce on her whole life, from her past life to her present life and her present situation.she recollected how her Father always told her how much of a special child she was and how unique her abilities were, “And whenever I ask him why he believes I’m special, he would reply saying it was a prophecy and that he was told by a witch the night I was born”“I just

    Brian went back home and waited patiently until midnight when Arianna would come.Arianna appeared at the usual time and sat next to him, “I was at the mansion” he said.“How did it go?” Arianna inquired.“I don’t know how best to put it but Alice has committed a huge crime” Brian responded.“What has she done this time?” Arianna asked.“You remember the gatekeeper,”“I was about to enter the mansion when he advised me not to”“The summary of it all is Mother is nowhere to be found and Alice has the whole mansion to herself” Brian stated.“How is that possible?”“Where has she gone?” Arianna asked.“He mentioned how Alice maltreated her”“One of the instances he gave, she banned her from coming out of her room because she questioned her”“And one day she asked that she was locked up in a room without food nor water and even her drugs”“After three days, Mother was brought out as she ordered, he made her clean the whole mansion and turned her to one of the domestic workers”“Anytime sh
