Jane“But you have to let others know you’re here,” I said to her. “The powers you showcased out there… were they black magic?”“Oh no,” she laughed. “I could never obey the rules of black magic. I stayed on my own because I wanted freedom and I didn’t want to be held back by anything. Black magic is the definition of rules. I have to do this and do that and not live freely. “All the souls I had killed would be gathered by my powers and I would see their visions, nightmares and dreams. That is something I don’t want happening. I want to live freely and be off on my own without having to watch my back everytime.”“But you were more powerful than black magic. From all I’ve read, black magic is not a fine thing to have but it’s supposed to be the strongest. Yet somehow you defeated the king.”She stared at me surprised. “You knew he had black magic?”“I’ve been reading my way through boredom,” I laughed. “While at the palace, I had read about black magic and how it would make you feel i
JaneHe would pay with his life. I was going to make sure of it. I would torture him. That was what suited him. “You were strong out there,” she said to me. “I like your strength. But you cannot use that level of power against your uncle. He would demolish you with a thought. You stand no chance against him.”“I dealt with tanks and I was faster than bullets.”“You fought against a group of people who have never fought against a werewolf before. The humans there had only heard stories. I didn’t fight against any witch there but the leader who played like a wolf from the beginning using deceptive tactics to get my land and the weapons they had were human weapons. “They were not poisoned and no wolfsbane was seen in sight. The only threat being the werewolf people he had in his bedroom and the sniper who shot at us. I’d say our odds of winning that fight was higher than seventy percent. “However, with your uncle's pack it is different. He’s an experienced warrior. He might not be as
JaneI got up and took the cups to wash but she stepped forward.“I’ll use my magic to…” she said before I shook my head.“You’ve taught me a very important lesson,” I smiled, rounding her to head for the sink. “I will wash it like a normal human and save my strength for other things.”“Aren’t you tired after that battle?” was what she said while watching me clean the cups and wash the plates. “You aren’t tired, even if it’s for a second?”“I am not,” I laughed. “I am full of life and energy. I just needed some time to breathe, that's all.”She shrugged and headed up the stairs, leaving me to do the dishes.I found myself to have progressed further than the first time I had arrived here.I was stronger, faster and more knowledgeable. Some of the books in her hut had been fascinating for me. I learned the origin of the first magician and learned how to activate my powers.I tried it of course but it wouldn’t work. I wondered if it was because I was not fully magic but only a part of it
MarthaI ran into the forest, using my knowledge of the terrain to avoid traps and obstacles.She had not listened to a single word of what I had said. All she wanted to do was save the coven from certain doom.She was just like her mother but not carefree like her father. She was as strong as him if not stronger if she stopped holding back. I could feel her straining to take out the enemies. But I knew untold power laid within her.The smell of burning flesh and wood hit my nose as I got through the forest to see the coven miles away from me covered in flames.Whatever had happened to the coven was serious. This was a war.I ran towards the coven, using my powers to put out the flames.Some wolves saw me and ran to me but I held their lungs and squashed it, watching them fall to the ground.I didn’t like using my powers to extreme measures but if the opponents were going to burn down my coven then they had brought about war.The wolves blitzed into me, however, my shields were alread
MarthaShe pointed at me with hatred, blurting out nonsense. Everything she said was just how she felt about me and not actual facts on why she thought I was the problem of this coven.We heard quakes getting closer as we looked to the pack and found something land close to us before zipping into us.We split just as the creature followed me about.It had red eyes, its fists clenched and fangs out. The permanent scowl on its face seemed to cause my heart to shake with fear.I was done running. I was a witch. I could win this fight if I put my heart on killing it. There was no way I was running away from this alpha.Turning around, I readied myself for the attack it would give to me.My shields were usually doubled to ensure maximum protection but this time, I tripled it. That would give me enough time to enforce my offensive abilities on him.He appeared before me with his speed like he had just teleported and punched into the shield.Just like I had expected, the shield held up, but
JaneI paced around the house not doing anything but worrying my head off.I wanted so much to join the fight but that would not be possible. I had to trust Martha and her magic. If she was not the strongest in the pack, then I doubted that the rogues would have much attacking the pack.I heard a door slam and minutes later the sleeping witch walked down the stairs to join me in the living room.“Where is she?” she asked, looking around.“Martha? She joined the fight.”“She’s going to die.”“I’ve seen Martha fight. She can hold her own against the wolves.”“No,” she shook her head. “I am one of the strongest in the coven and I got my ass handed to me by an elder of their pack. Those wolves are not normal. They are strong.”“How strong?”“Their leader tore through the gates with his bare hands.”“Any creature can do that.”“That gate was made from graphene. It’s hundred times stronger than ordinary steel. It was also fortified with magic to make it stronger. That man tore through it wi
Sinclair“Sinclair!” I heard a distant voice. No, this was a trick, it had to be. Those witches must have implanted it into my head when they used their spells against me.My eyesight was gone just as my hearing was gone. All I could do was smell but nothing smelled the same. They were all smoke and fire.“Sinclair!” the distant scream came again as I tightened my grip on the neck of whatever creature I was holding.I raised my hand higher this time ready to slice through the creature before me but when I did so, it held my hand with exceeding strength.That was impossible. Nothing could hold me back. No one could rival my power.I let my wolf show as the tussle of strength between us increased with the land around us sinking under our combined weight.I tried to use my wolf to heal myself even quicker which I did and there in front of me was the last person I had expected to see.It was Jane.“Wha…” I released my hand from her neck just as she punched into my jaw, sending me flying h
Jane“What?!” he yelled in frustration. It was clear he didn’t understand why I was still rejecting his idea to get back with him.Sure I wanted to go home with him but it wasn’t going to be that easy. He had to earn it.I was living a wonderful life here in the coven. If I wasn’t in the coven I was in the valley. There I had formed a bond with the witch, Martha.She had taught me to be stronger than I would ever be and taught me to be able to hold my own against both magical and non magical attacks. She was the definition of power and strength. I was going to be stronger under her tutelage.However I couldn’t leave everything to follow him just because he apologized. His apologies meant nothing if they would happen again.I wanted him to mean it and stop the rumors from spreading and destroying the good name I had built for myself. “What do you want?”“I am hurt, deeply hurt,” I sighed. “I haven’t done anything but been there for you whenever you wanted me and all I got was rumors a
