Chapter 109.*.*The stench of the room was that of dust and old books. The aroma of different concoctions being mixed filled the air with different colors of smoke filling the room.There was a big shelve placed on the wall that contained diverse herbs and portions in a mini bottle. The bunnies walk around in the cage while Hazel was busy with the potion she was making in her lab. She had mixed the whole necessary ingredients and it was left with just a single herb which she had asked one of the servants to get for her.She looked up from the potion she was mixing when she heard footsteps approaching the room. She was expecting to see the servant that was sent to bring the last ingredient, but when she saw Owen, her expectation was cut short."Oh, hi Owen" she said and returned her gaze to what she was mixing and heating."I take it I was not the one you were expecting?" He smiled and rested his back on the door frame. She chuckled and shrugged, while he watched what she was doing.
Chapter 110.*.*"Not really" he spoke after a brief silence."There's this deal I signed with someone" he began."Where? In the human world?" "No. Right here" She stopped what she was doing and looked at him and he only nodded at her. She stood erect and paid attention to what he was saying."All right. Go on""So... I signed this deal with someone and he has gone against our initial agreement. I have tried to destroy the deal, but there is nothing I could do. It refuses to get destroyed" he explained as she furrowed her brows, thinking."I don't really know who you sign this deal with." She stopped and looked at him intently."But what I know about the witches. If you sign a deal with your blood, you can only destroy it with the blood of the people that signed it with their blood" she explained.He had prepared himself not to act too shocked so he wouldn't have to alarm her or make her get suspicious of him."Hmm... So this is the only way that the scroll could be destroyed? Cora
Chapter 111.*.*Azura took a step backward while Hazel walked and took a few steps in her direction."You dare call yourself my superior, Azura? Is that what you have always wanted?" Hazel was astounded."I have always known you were selfish, Azura. But I never thought that your thirst for power would drive you to this extent!""Watch your tongue, Hazel! Don't make me do what I would regret doing" Azura barked at her."There is nothing you could do, Azura! Don't think you are so stronger than me. While you are busy with your newly found family, I was busy getting better at my craft" She yelled.Azura used her right palm to cover her mouth in shock. Wondering what has gotten over her sister. She came out of the shock and got a hold of herself, then she gave her sister a stern look."Look, Hazel...""I don't care if you are better than me or not. But what I do know is, you have to stay away from that human""And why should I?""Getting close to him would ruin our plan" Azura said with
Chapter 112.*.*Kira walked up to the table and stood opposite Hazel who was deep in thought. The only thing that was demarcating the both of them was the large table."Are you okay?" Kira asked and Hazel sighed."Yeah" she said sadly and looked at the door Cora had stood as if she was still standing there."So, is the potion ready?" Kira asked agitated as Hazel smiled."Almost" she said and took out the strand of hair Kira had given her the previous day and dumped it into the potion.They both watched as it foamed while she continued to stir it. She brought it down from the heat and looked up at Kira."Did you come with the bottle?""Yes, I did" Kira said rushing her words.She started fidgeting with her garment until she brought out the tiny bottle that was hidden in her garment which she handed over to Hazel.Hazel took it from her grip and scooped a spoonful into the tiny bottle until it was almost filled to the brim.She finished and cocked it while Kira looked at it with keen i
Chapter 113.*.*Cora can't believe what she has always wanted was being handed to her on a platter of gold, and she didn't want to act all super excited, so she decided to play along."But... How are we going to do that?" She asked as if Cole had not given her the tip he got from Hazel."To destroy the deal, we need the blood of all those that signed it." She said.Cora sighed and folded her arms across her chest and began pacing up and down the place.Hazel was tired of holding the basket, so she just dropped it on the ground."Not that your sisters are going to hand over their blood in a platter of gold to us" Cole mumbled."How are we going to get their blood?" He added."Leave that to me, Creed" she said, touching his hand that was placed on her shoulder."When I get their blood, I will inform you and I would need yours too" she continued, looking at Cora who nodded at her."All right. So we have a plan now" Cole said."I would suggest you both are not seen together. Or better st
Chapter 114.*.*It was a bright sunny day and Hazel was thinking of how she was going to carry out the plan she had with Cora the previous day.The servants walked past her as she strolled down the foyer, heading for her lab. Last night, she had walked out of the lab, looking for Kira so she could warm her after what she read from the scroll, but Kira was nowhere to be found.She paused on her way when she sighted Kira, walking out from another hallway, holding a basket filled with clothes for laundry.Hazel draw in a great deal of air into her nostrils and heaved. She started walking toward Kira in haste but stopped dead in her track when she saw Max walking behind her back without her knowledge."Hmm" she mumbled under her breath and dashed out of sight, staring at what was going to happen to see if Max would attack her just like the bunny had done to her.She watched as Max walked up to Kira eventually and covered her eyes with one of his palms, making her stop. Kira smiled and mu
Chapter 115.*.*Hazel gazed at the door as if she could still see Kira in the room. She twitched her lips and sighed, then looked down at the table she was resting her hands."I have warned her." She mumbled under her breath."Anything that happens to her is on her and not on me" she shrugged and turned to look at the bunnies as her gaze rested on the one she had fed the love potion. She was too scared to pick it up because she didn't know what it would do to her next time.She waved off the thought and concentrated on the task she has ahead of her, which was to destroy the scroll.She knew getting Nora's blood would be a lot easy. But the issue was Azura and if she was not careful enough, Azura was going to suspect something is wrong."I'll have to deal with her first" she breathed down and walked to the cage. She released the latch and carefully picked one of the bunnies she did not feed with the love potion, she was careful enough not to get close to the one that had bitten her as
Chapter 116.*.*Max walked toward his room, and down the hallway as his head spun. He didn't understand the headache he felt. But he suspected all he needed was a little drop of wine and a good rest and he would be okay.He was almost in his room when he sighted Cole and Cohen walking down the hallway. He paused and observed as Cole walked from afar and he grinned. He was sure his ankle was better because he was now walking properly.Max suddenly forget about the pain he was feeling in his head and began walking toward Cole and Cohen, they were midway to the hallway before they noticed he was walking in their direction.They stopped a few inches apart from each other as he bowed before Cole, paying his respect and Cole acknowledged him."I haven't seen Lucas around lately" he said, looking from Cole to Cohen."Yes. He is busy with the incoming full moon" Cole responded, wondering why Max was suddenly interested in Lucas.They watched as Max scratched his hair savagely. Cole exchanged
