The Cursed Passion CHAPTER 45
(AHVI'S POINT OF VIEW)It's finally the day of the championship and I keep getting goosebumps whenever I think of the crowd I will be facing in the next few minutes. I haven't felt this much anxiety since Vance kissed me for the first time.“Are you okay, you keep rubbing your hands,” Miss Katherina gives me a concerned look as we tread towards the dressing room of the stadium; the show starts in an hour and I need to get ready before then.I give her a tiny smile. “I'm fine, my hands are just damp,”“I know you will do great, you were born to be an ice princess,” The praise makes me grin. “I want to be the queen,” I murmur shyly and she giggles. She halts as we finally reach the door and look at me.“And you will be once you join the Olympics,” she looks at me with fondness and reaches out to stroke my hair. “You are brighter than a star, Ahvi. You remind me so much of myself when I was your age. Let's kill the show,” I nod eagerly and almost bounce with excitement. She opens the d

(AHVI'S POINT OF VIEW)The team and I arrived back in Chicago airport at 5pm on a Monday after a successful championship. It was a moment I won't forget in a rush and I hold it to Miss Katherina and Xenia; I could have kissed my career goodbye if they hadn't saved the day and now, I have the chance of joining the Olympics next year right after graduation, it's a dream come true.“Despite the challenges, we made it through. Congratulations team, the Olympics are right ahead of us!” Miss Xenia clasps her hands in avidness as she reels to us when we reach the airport exit. “We've had hellacious weeks so, we will be taking the two weeks off practice and we will meet back at the stadium.”I have never grinned so wide in my entire life as Miss Xenia announces the little break. Staking is frolic and all but a little break will be nice after practicing non stop. There's time to study and time with Vance. A blush blooms on my cheeks at the thought. “Will you be okay on your own?” Miss Katheri

(AHVI'S POINT OF VIEW)I'm naked as I sit there in the bathtub in my bathroom, saturated with warm water that's already losing its heat. I gape catatonically at the wall in front of me with my knees held to my chest. I feel lost. I never think I will one day come to doubt everything I once knew, I never think I will be curious about what my mom's hiding from me. There's a lot going on that I don't know. Even David and Vance are hiding something from me; they are all keeping me in the shadows like some little girl who's going to crumble once she discovers the truth and I hate it. But how do I find things out on my own? I've never been a curious one especially when it comes to solving puzzles but now, I feel like I'm in an endless maze with no exit.I let myself sink sluggishly into the water till my entire body is submerged except for my face that looks at the ceiling with vacancy till I hear a knock from my bathroom room.Vance's scent reaches my nostrils before he opens the door a
The Cursed Passion CHAPTER 48
(AHVI'S POINT OF VIEW)I know this is a bad idea the moment I saunters into my mom and David's room to find either of them present, however curiosity gets the better of me and I slip into the master bedroom.It's neat, nothing is out of place, it gives me a change of mind, I feel I won't find anything here but then again, there's nothing wrong with trying. I reach the wardrobe.I ransacked through it, finding nothing out of the ordinary, next are the lockers and drawers, still no luck. Where could she be hiding it? I think to myself and then, a light bulb lights up in my head; I squats and looks under the bed and finds a box.Ah! Found it! I exclaim in triumph and take the box from under the bed. I make myself comfortable on the bed and just look at the box. It's old with a unique design at the top; it doesn't have any dust on it and it looks like it was recently opened. Will I really be able to find the answers to my question if I open this box? Will she get mad that I'm going throu
The Cursed Passion CHAPTER 49
(AHVI'S POINT OF VIEW)Boredom and a little bit of curiosity gets me roaming the internet, typing werewolves on the search engine and instantly, I am given results of the movie twilight and other werewolf dramas. What am I expecting?I scroll down, skipping images and redirecting links. There isn't much about them, I guess if they really are top secret of the government, there won't be articles about them on the internet.Curiosity gets me typing something else; witches and again is met with few to no articles. I tapped on one, entering a website and it talks about witches.I read through the article. Witches are rare compared to werewolves and they have powers that are beyond the comprehension of humans. Witches are born with powers passed down from generation to generation, their powers can erupt the balance of the universe and most of them possess the ability to travel time and tell the future. Witches are phenomenal and only exist one in a thousand.“What are you doing?” Vance's
The Cursed Passion CHAPTER 50
(AHVI'S POINT OF VIEW)“You look gorgeous,” That's the first thing Miss Katherina says as soon as I arrive at the venue and gets out of the car as she waits for me outside the building.I'm wearing a red ankle length dress with a slit at the front that reaches my thigh and a pair of black heels. My hair is done neatly and my face is touched with makeup.I smile at the compliment. “Thank you, Miss Katherina, you look beautiful too,” She offers me a hand. “Ready?”I look at the massive building. Inside determines my future for the Olympics and how many sponsors I get. I look back at Miss Katherina and take her hand. “Let's party,” I voice and she escorts us inside the building.The inside is one hell of a luxury. The floors are shining and the ceiling is just as gleaming with beautiful chandeliers, there are few tables here and there and it's filled with people of different occupations. This is an event that comes every three years where every skater from all organizations in Chicago
The Cursed Passion CHAPTER 51
(AHVI'S POINT OF VIEW)I've always hated being threatened. I glare at her. “That photo is taken without consent and I can sue you for that,”She laughs out loud. “Oh please, Ahvi. You can go ahead and sue me, between us, we both know who's going to lose our careers,” she stares at me mockingly and shakes her head in fake pity. “Tsk, tsk, tsk. Poor thing. Ten years of hard work is going down the drain,” I grip hard on the side of my dress. She's crazy and I know she's going to do everything to ruin me. “What do you want?”“Bingo!” She snaps her fingers in thrill, eyes glittering with a wicked hint. “It's easy. I want you to go out there and announce to everyone that you are nothing but a shameless whore who bangs her sponsors and stepbrother, how about that?” she stalks towards me, her jaw clenching. “I've hated you right from the day Miss Xenia introduced you to us. I saw the way she looked at you like a rare gem, I saw the way everyone looked at you, you stole the spotlight from me
The Cursed Passion CHAPTER 52
(RAVEN'S POINT OF VIEW)I walk into the kitchen to find Damien cooking over the oven with his back turned to me. I lean against the door wall and shamelessly scan my eyes over him.He's dressed in a pair of gray lounge pants and a henley shirt with the sleeves folded up to his elbows. He looked homely and comfy and he looks mine—a wide grins occupies my lips as the thought crosses my mind.“I know you're standing there,” The suddenness of his voice makes me jerk in a bit startle and I push myself off the kitchen wall and slowly approach him and he turns to me. “Hi,” I shyly tucks a strand of hair behind my ear. “Hi,” he says back with a smile, then passes me to the kitchen aisle where different types of Ingredients are laid.“What are you making?” I stand beside him as he takes a place of one pound large bowl of shrimp, peeled and deveined.“Shrimp and vegetable skewers with peanut sauce. The kids are coming over,” The kids, he meant Zach, Dean, Henry and Scar, they are barely the
