Spells And Mates Chapter Nine
"I honestly didn't think any of this would result to anyone getting hurt, I just want to make things right. Miss Hermione should be properly reprimanded, that is all I need and ask." Grandmother says, sitting down."Hmm, this is a delicate issue and as such, should be treated delicately. We all know Miss Hermione Crofus results has been woeful all along, but for her to be able to display such prowess in a short while, should say something to us." Principal Eldor speaks for the very first time. The woman and grandmother share confusing glances“Are you trying to insinuate, that she has been pretending all along? I mean, is it even possible to hide such skillfulness or dexterity for this long?" The woman asks, giving him a glare that depicts a 'what are you doing?' look.He ignores her, turning to the rest members of the council "...To my best knowledge, Miss Hermione, since her entry into this school has been a very quiet and well-reserved child..." The council members turn look at me.

It was lunch hour when I walked back into the school unit, I obviously had missed three classes. Few students were loitering in the hallway."Hey Hermione!" Glinda calls happily, on seeing me."Glinda." I exclaim happily, hugging her."How was the hearing? I heard it was pretty serious!" Glinda says, looking at my facial expression."Glinda! You really hear a lot of things, besides who fed you on that?" I ask, opening my locker to bring out the tiny bracelets I made early hours of this morning, to give to the Prince and Princess. A little token of me saying ‘thank you’.The white bracelet I made is for Prince Ares, while the blue is for Princess Athena; for she seem to like the color blue very much."...Hmmm, it was Kira who said it after class." Glinda answersI turn to look at her confusingly "Kira? Who's Kira?"Glinda tries to avoid my gaze "Hmm, Kira is one of Ketura's friends"My mouth drops in dismay "Wow! Okay, so you know her. You even know her name!... Tell me Glinda, what ha

I hear murmurings; a girl asks her friend "Oh I am so going to be wearing a beautiful lavender gown. How about you?"Her brunette friend replies "Well, I do not know yet. I guess I will have to trust what I'll see at home, You know my mother is one of the best cloth makers in the entire region?!" "Gracious goddess! I am so envious of you...""Oh Beatrix don't be." She rolls her eyes playfully, "I am pretty sure that we are turn up looking gorgeous. If not the most gorgeous!" The two girls giggle happily.I slowly make my way to the royal unit. I heave out a loud sigh "I really hope the princes and princess will love these bracelets. For I made them with love..."Two feet afore me, is the royal unit completely empty. My heart beat accelerates. Could it be that they had lunch and hurriedly left for they didn't want to be seen with me? Or they skipped lunch?"Hermione, just breathe..." Comes Ezli's voice."O goddess! How then would you explain this Ezli?" I ask, rubbing my throbbing hea

I stare at my reflection in the mirror; I am draped in a shimmering yellow dress. My red hair is styled to perfection as Ezli whispers to me the magic words for a makeup "Meko na tilaz eferusa konede eluazua zaris!" Star dust erupts from my fingers.I look totally unrecognizable."Yaaaaaay!" I swirl happily in front of the mirror. "Thank you so much, Ezli. I look very much like a Queen.""Yes, like the Queen you are ..." My cheeks bore crimson red. Even my blue eyes were sparkling so bright."Let's get going." I whisper to Ezli, closing my door. I saunter down the stairs quickly, and reaching the gate."Oops Ezli, do you think it's a good idea coming out this late? The whole place is deserted, plus there's no ride in view... You do know that I know nothing about the teleport dimension!" I say panicking"Hermione can you not panic and be calm?" Ezli hush me "...We can try the teleport dimension or rather still, use a fly car to get to our destination." Ezli tells me"The ones I saw the

"Gracious goddess!" I pant, clasping my palm over my chest cautiously."Mate... Mate... Mate... Why did you leave him Hermione? You shouldn't have left!" Ezli whines unhappily on our return from the royal ball."What would you have had me do? Grandmother, Ketura, Glinda and practically everybody that I know are in the palace! What should I have done?!" "You should have just stayed a little longer with our mate... Besides nobody could have recognized you!" Ezli whines again"Now that's not a chance I am willing to take. Ketura, Glinda or even grandmother on a closer glance would have recognized me right away... But why do you keep saying mate Ezli? ...right there in the ballroom, it was you, you called that stranger our mate Ezli. But why? A person can't have two mates, or can they? Was my grandmother true when she said I was principal Eldor's second mate?" I ask intensely, my emotions all jumbling up."You need to breath Hermione, breath..." Ezli says soothingly. I take in a deep bre

" ...Awwn poor Hermione, all left bored and alone." Ketura mocks, on seeing me lie on the bed "We had so much fun at the palace! Can you believe, I even danced with the crowned Prince Helios?!" She squeals, earning a prideful look from Grandmother who stood beside her."The palace? Fun? I don't understand..." I ask, faking ignorance"Yes, Hermione. A Royal ball was organized specially at the palace for the youths, and that is because the crowned prince is of the opinion that his fated mate is from this kingdom." Ketura grins at me"Wow! and nobody deemed it fit to tell me?" I ask, playing alongGrandmother chuckles loudly "Why? For what use dear? The palace isn't looking for your kind.""Yeah, and you really missed out. Besides you already got yourself a mate and that is Eros Anathos. Whoops! but I have him wrapped around my finger..." She jeers making to leave, when she halt abruptly, taking a look at me. She whispers "And guess what little Cousin? We made love for the first time to

"Hey Glinda, what's up?" I whisper, tapping her as Mrs. Haggai takes us on the past doings of great witches and warlocks."Can you not talk to me, Hermione. I am trying to concentrate here!" Glinda seethes"Sorry, I just wanted to know if you're okay." I tell her apologetically"Tsk. Do I not look okay to you?" Glinda rolls her eyes"Sorry. It's just me checking up on you." I tell her, making to keep quiet afterwards"Check up on me? I guess you have been doing a lot of check up on the Princess. So why check up on me, it's not like you care!" She snorts"Woah. I care because you're my friend. Can't I ask how my friend is doing? I didn't even see or get to talk to you in the first period. Are you avoiding me Glinda?" I ask"Why will I? Can I even, because you are all up in my business every time!" She snaps loudly, earning an impassive glare from Mrs. Haggai"Is all well, Miss Lokenzi, or would you rather teach the class then?" She asks Glinda, who shakes her head abruptly "I'd rather

"Hey Hermione." Eros calls, catching up with my pace. It was just the two of us on the lonely road. Now Hermione, see what your love for strolling and peaceful moment has gotten you into."Were you stalking me Eros?" I teeth at him."No, I wasn't Hermione, but what would you have me do? I have been trying to get your attention all week, all to no avail." He tells me"So that was your clue to following me home?" My eyebrows furrow tightly. "I... I..." He stutters at lost for what to say."What do you want Eros?" I ask halting, my arms akimbo."I just wanted to know how you were doing Hermione." He answers, pocketing his hands"Okay, I am good. Now Shoo!" I say dismissing him and increasing my pace.He catches up with me again "I heard some things today, Hermione. I demand to know if they were true or not...""Demand? Mr. Eros Anathos, I owe no nothing!" I say, scrunching up my nose. Can he just go already!!?"Whether you like it or not, you and I are mates..." He was saying"A point o

Spells And Mates Epilogue
It was first about doing what made my twin happy after the loss of our elder sister.That was it, I told myself repeatedly. No one knew about the mysterious girl in my dreams, save Athena.Athena did know about the frequent dreams, but what she didn't know, was that the said-girl who she had asked me to keep watch of, is a replica of this mysterious girl in my dreams. However, the only difference was the hair color. One had white, and the other; red.No wonder, when we finally became friends; I called her Red. It was for me, a subtle way of reminding myself that she isn't the one...When had I fallen so hard for the girl, I was to protect? When had I fallen so hard, for my female best friend?Call me selfish, cold even. After all, it is all that I have learnt from my master; Lord Osteri, these few moons. Allegra and Helios will have to compromise. For my heart and soul belongs to the girl of my dreams.Hermione Circe Crofus, is mine.

"Drekusa tiru fizua shinim Osteri voi tilan ku." His back against me, as he towers over Ares still-body on the marble. A dagger in his hand, darkness slowly calls me... My eyes flutter open; A hefty paled skinned demon steps out from the red portal. The demon smirks, casting his gaze from Principal Eldor, to Ares, and me. My breath hitches up in fear, I try to fight the darkness overwhelming me, it pulls me nonetheless into subconsciousness... as the demon fangs press into my neck. "This isn't wh..." Principal Eldor's angry voice fades away... _ "Hermione, wake up." A subtle tap wakes me from my slumber. "Her-mionee." The voice calls again. My eyes snaps open to see figures hovering me, the dim cloud behind them. "Are you okay Hermione? Where's Ares? What's that on your lips? Is that blood?" Voices throw questions at me, noises' jamming, bells ringing in my head... I make to sit up, but finds myself standing at the tree miles from them. "Woah. Hermione, how did you do that?"

Our backs caress the green grasses, the wind blowing softly. "I don't know what to say, Hermione. Did you even tell Dad, about Ezli's current state?... I still can't believe, that you kept all these in your heart. You were slowly wallowing in pain. Why didn't tell anyone? ...and still, you are preparing for the competition tomorrow!" Ares stutters, closing his eyes tightly."It's fine, I am fine. This is just another... I and Ezli will pull through." I whisper, closing my eyes too."... sometimes, I just feel like going somewhere far away, away from everything... The competition, summon in seven days’ time, Helios and I... Ezli... I just..." Instinctively I wipe the tears from the corners of my eyelids, I didn't know that I'd begun crying again... Everything hurts so bad. It feels like universe is resting on my shoulders.Ares snuggles closer, patting my hair "It all will turn out beautifully, Red." He whispers, having that look in his face. I knew he had a lot going on his mind "…I w

"Don't worry Hermione, we will just be outside the door. Nothing is going to happen. You shouldn't be nervous." Athena smiles, ushering me into Principal Eldor's office.I ignore Ares' intent gaze on my face, as I plaster a nervous smile to Athena "Thank you." I murmur, turning quickly, before the question in my mouth rolls off.How about Hwuakiti?I do notice their subtle hostility towards Glinda now and then, but I wouldn't be the one to ruin any relationship further. Since nobody is talking about the Queen's return from consulting Hwuakiti. I shouldn't say anything either....but Hwuakiti is to know that Glinda is using dark magic on Helios, or is she not?What did Hwuakiti tell the Queen? Why is nobody saying anything?Why am I even here? I turn to see Principal Eldor smiling mischievously at me.If only, Athena knew... Well, the person who knows about the principal's illicit interest in me, have absconded yet again, on another trip with her minions. Glinda, who I might have told,

“Fine! I am Fairy Circe! You got me, so what now?!” I groan, matching Athena’s gaze angrily. Swiftly she tackles me into the bed, I bring my hand up to protect me from a hit. instead, I hear a subtle chuckle, slowly transcending into a loud laughter.Okay. so, this is not the expression I was expecting. Soft kisses press on my cheeks abruptly “My sister-in-love.” Athena giggles happily“So, you are Helios’ mate?” Ares asks lowly“Yeah… kinda.” I murmur, not meeting his eyesYayyy!!” Long arms reach out for Athena and I, swinging us excitedly “Best news ever!!!” Ares says happily. Mixed delicious scents overwhelmed me “Too tight… can’t breathe.” I struggle to say“Oh, sorry.” They both hesitatingly let go off me. I try to catch my breath. Athena slowly extends her palms to Adonis, who seem like he has been having a hard time, processing what I just said.“Pay up!” Athena says with a smirkPay up? What’s that?? Ares tries to hide the small smile escaping from his lips, it slips anyway.

“How far is it?” Glinda grumbles to Ares, falling into my pace. I know she has been meaning to say something to me since we left the house.Helios and her had gotten a ride together, while the rest of us had snuggled up in Ares’ fly car, much to Athena’s detriment; who wanted some time alone with her mate, who's been talking excitedly with Ares about the training house.I, on the other hand have been having my best moments with just thinking about, how Helios looked away when I winked at him. Could he perhaps, be having some desires for me?“You should swipe off that smirk from your face, Hermione. You are not getting my man.” Glinda spits angrily“Oh. I am so scared, Glinda." I scoff, before looking at the birds that perched on a maple tree.“Stay away from Helios, Hermione. I am warning you. Do not look at him, do not as much do anything with him!” Glinda threatens, her eyes going darkMy eyes roll nonchalantly “Do what? Like kiss him under the full moon, outside the royal ball? The

"Everything is happening so fast. My brother's mate is now more relatable. I found my own mate here in this house, and now final exams is almost over ...Not to forget that we all would be going to your coven's meeting in seven days’ time. I am not even sure that we will be allowed into the main cult premises… royals or no royals privilege. My Dad is finally back from his endless meetings with the mortals... and Adonis is so..." Athena rambles on and on, sprawled on my bed.Issh. Your brother's mate huh? I make to knock her, but then my hand falls resigningly beside oblivious Athena.She doesn't know. No one does, save for Dad and I.Moreso, I wouldn't want her to use that another cue to leave to go see Adonis again… Don’t those two ever get tired of each other? Like she practically spends every moment of hers with my brother. Arggh… and it just has been quite a really long time since it was just us two.My brother just innocently came and stole my best friend. Well, he should thank th

"Your mate? Glinda, I presume...?" Dad's eyes narrow even fiercely"Mr. Crofus? You are Hermione's father? How comes no one told me about you?" Glinda finally finds her voice "Well, I am Glinda and it is so nice meeting you, Mr. Crofus" Glinda curtseys, extending her hand for a handshake. For a second, Glinda’s smile actually felt genuine."Hermione's Ex-best friend. It is nice to meet you too, Glinda." Dad shakes her hand firmly, before letting go. She almost falls."You mind joining us?" Dad says half-heartedly, before continuing with his meal"I really do not mind, sir. Thank you." Glinda finds a sit, beside Helios. She smiles happily.I watch her beneath my eyelashes. Is my dad charming or something? …Or could it be seeing a father figure after so long, that's affecting her this way?If only you had told me, Glinda... I would have been there for you regardless…“Eyes up Hermione, you are becoming soft towards our enemy.” Ezli seethes“Sorry. I just feel sympathy, that’s all.” I mu

"Would you want to go back to sleep, or would you want us to talk outside?" Helios suggested, and here we are outside the house with his blanket. I could fall asleep just by wallowing in his scent."Another full moon." I whisper, staring at it and the constellations in the sky"It's beautiful" He whispers "...why do I feel like we have been under the full moon before? But that was Glinda in the royal ball..." He mutters thoughtfullyMy heart twist painfully. It took me everything not to grab him by the shoulders and shout "Can't you see what's in front of you? I am your mate!"Instead, I calmly say "Glinda? Can you tell me about it?""She had always filled my dreams all these years... I had long been searching for my mate, when she walked into the ballroom that day. She smelt so heavenly from where she was standing, looking lost and enthralling. I make to my feet when she introduced herself as Glinda... It was a dream come true for me, I had finally my mate.
