"You can call me Jessica." And with a smile, I stepped back, about to leave when his car window rolled up and he zoomed away. Just before that, Jessica saw him smile. It was a few days after their meeting, and Jessica realized she hadn't even bothered to collect his contacts. For the first time in a long time, she had found a fellow witch companion aside her family. She had been so alone until she met him, and she was so stupid she didn't even collect his contacts. She just hoped he'd remember her, because she didn't know a thing about him asides his name, and his Little sister who she wanted to meet. One day, she was sleeping. It was 4:00am in the morning, and someone was banging hard on her store door. She was terrified, thinking it was the werewolves. Had they discovered this was her home as well? Because no sane person would ever bang on a store at such early hours of the morning. It was freaking 4:00am, and she still felt drowsy. As she approached the door, she noticed the b
Kristen woke up feeling more confident of herself. She was aware that today was the beginning of the Luna candidates' competition, and she was aware that she was competing against worthy Lunas, but she had an air of confidence and pride around her as she went off to prepare for the day. When the Lunas arrived, they were assigned personal Omegas who would help them out. She was assigned three. As she got up, two were in the bathroom preparing her bath while the third massaged the scalp of Her Hair with oils before she bathed. Kristen stared into the mirror, staring scornfully at the maid who was trembling as she massaged her hair. She enjoyed seeing the fear in people's eyes whenever they were around her, so she smiled, satisfied. "What do you think of the competition today, maid?" The maid was surprised that she was talking to her, but she sensed it was a trap. She couldn't say she'd win for because of course she wasn't in the position to give the results of the winner. But she co
Soon, Emelda walked in, all dressed in her warrior uniform when Kristen was all dressed up. "Did you hear the news?" Kristen smirked as they stepped out of the room, holding the hilt of their swords from their holster. "Yeah. I'm guessing the competition's not going to hold today then." Kristen tried to sound calm as she asked even though she was giddy with excitement. Emelda stretched as they passed some Omegas who acknowledged them in the way. "I dunno. But we're currently on our way to the gardens to have breakfast with the elders and the Alpha, so I think the two of us are capable enough of taking on the competition today if the need arises." Kristen just smiled but she didn't say a word. On hearing they were going to eat with the Alpha, at the entrance, she loosened her hair and packed it into a tight pony tail. Emelda shook her head with a smile on seeing her. "Do you know what might have happened to Amanda?" Kristen asked. "I don't know. Rumor says that she was attacke
DAMIEN'S POV I decided to ignore that fact though and focused on eating. Besides, since my Betas were preoccupied, there was no use making a huge fuss out of it. I, Elder Raj and Elder Razu made small talk while Kristen and Emelda discussed between themselves in hushed voices. Finally, Elder Raj got up with a file in his hands which he read out loud. Just before he did, he cleared his throat and they all paused in whatever they had doing to listen to him. Even Kristen's annoying voice ceased, and I was grateful for that. "Today... Great Luna candidates and possibly future Lunas of this pack, we would be testing your strength..." He cleared his throat again and let it sink In as he scanned his eyes over them as they all focused on him intently. "You all will be dispatched to the forest across our borders to return with a rogue before the end of the day. The person to return first with the head of one would be given twenty points. The person to return with a head of a rogue would
DAMIEN'S POV"How would they know that... And what if Emelda and I eventually meet at a particular spot in the forest? How will you guys know we were even communicating..."The door suddenly burst open and two Omegas walked in, bearing trays with two bracelets atop one. Elder Raj got up and took the trays before bidding the Omegas farewell. He turned to me, and I automatically got up and too it right from his grip. "Alpha Damien ... Would you do the honors?""Sure." I force a smile before bringing the bracelet towards me. I took the first one and bounded it around Emelda's arm and did the same for Kristen. When I was done, they studied what was on their arm before turning to me in confusion. I could tell they would ask this, but I was surprised they didn't know of something like. This though. "And what's this?" Kristen asked. "That's a transmitter... It will enable us know your location and know every single word you speak when you're alone or with something." I patiently explain
DAMIEN'S POV I sigh as turned to Jessica who had a confused look on her face. "She's lost her memory..."She stopped eating at once and stared from me to her to me to her again and again. She was acting like she hadn't see us before. ",Please be serious, because this is freaking me out...""I'm freaked out too... And I thought you could help, and that's why I called you...""So you're Jessica..." Amaira said with a raised brow and Jessica got up with a narrowed eyes. "Are you sure she's lost her memory...""Yes I'm sure. She woke up by side this morning and doesn't even remember who she is. Each time, Jason invades her head and starts telling her all sorts of lies and gibberish... ""J- Jason invades her head? What are you talking about?" She raised a brow,. But I could note the tension in her eyes as she waited for a reply. "He tells her things .... Ridiculous things about her being a witch... Princess of witches..And her name being Abigail.. and... " "They're not ridiculous..
DAMIEN'S POV I froze such that my legs literally paused in the ground like a car screeching on the ground. "What??!!""And.. that's the bad news" she tried to laugh, but she suddenly burst out crying. "even if I want to get a hold of him, I can't even reach him. I don't even know when he left on his own, I swear. He just called to inform me that he was leaving to meet you in the pack, and a few minutes, he called to say he was looking for a witch whom will take him to the witch world and he didn't need me following him... " "Vanessa calm down please... What he did was really stupid, but you know he cares too much about you to let you join him.. ""But he's so stupid..." She cried again, and I nodded, holding back a smile when she cursed at him while crying. "Look, why don't you wait for me at the hospital, and I'll meet you there after dropping the elders and Luna candidates off at the forest..""Wait... What did the elder say about Amanda and Audrey not being able to perform""We
AMAIRA POVAs I slowly ate, meekly chewing while focusing my gaze on my food, I could feel the presence of the witch as she sat close to me on the bed. When I had had enough, I pushed the tray away and she took it before dropping it on the bedside table. The entire, I watched her with the corner of my eyes as they narrowed down suspiciously. I wouldn't say I was jealous of the woman In front of me, but wasn't Damien being quite familiar with her for someone that was 'just' a friend?She was incredibly beautiful and I envied her white hair and her crimson, ruby red eyes that I feared Damien may have been lying to me about us being together. I so badly wanted to trust him. I knew he was someone I could trust, yet …Yet what? I could hear my inner conscious cautioning me. Why was there a 'yet'. If I did trust him, then there shouldn't be any other doubts whatsoever. "Are you okay, Amaira?"I jerked on hearing that name before raising my head and realizing that Jessica was still sit
