Kira’s POV I flipped through the pages of the book, searching for a spell to bring back the dead. I knew it was highly unlikely for it to be as simple as that, but I had to at least try the only way I knew. After searching every page of the book. Thoroughly and precisely, I found NOTHING. There was nothing about raising someone from the dead. I was officially fucked. How was I supposed to go on with it? I tossed the aside and plopped down on my bed. This wasn’t working. What did Frederick expect me to do? Maybe if I slept, he was going to tell me what to do in my dreams. I breathed out sharply. I was already tired so sleeping wasn’t a problem. As I drifted, the door opened forcefully and I jumped up from the bed immediately. My heart calmed down a bit when I realized it was just mum. I needed to let go of the mentality that Frederick was going to come out from nowhere. He was dead and couldn’t hurt me as long as I was awake “Mum” I groaned as I lay back down on the bed. “You almos
Chapter 85Kira’s POV“We are going to my brother’s grave” she said and I almost choked on air. Was she being serious? I hadn’t even learnt anything about raising him up from the dead. What was I supposed to do there? Sing until he wakes up? Anxiety took over me as I panicked. I bit my bottom lips to cope with my nervousness but it didn’t work. I inhaled and inhaled too. I did that to help prepare myself for the possible blunder I was going to commit.“It’s okay, Frederick’s spirit is in you, you can do anything” she said.I sighed as I leaned back into my seat. This woman needed to stop hacking into my thoughts. Wait, what did she mean by his spirit is inside me. Did she mean right now? I stared at myself. Maybe that was how I was able to act so bold. No wonder I felt that great energy that course through may body as I spoke.“You let him, why are you so surprised” she asked.“He didn’t tell me he was inside of me” I said and then I suddenly remembered when I heard him clearly saying
Kira's POVI remembered vividly that I slept in the forest, but when I woke up I was in the forest no more. I was in a room. It had some kind of gloom to it, and it wasn't entirely bright. The only source of light was the tiny window that was placed very high up.I panicked instantly as I sat up from the bed I was in. Memories of what happened the previous night hit me and my anxiety doubled. I stood up from the bed to walk or better still run away, but my legs failed me even before I could take more steps.I fell to the ground and I was too weak to stand up. I didn't give up though. It was hard for me, but I was able to crawl to the big door of the room.All my efforts of crawling went to waste when I saw the handle of the door twist. My eyes widened as I scurried away with my hands and knee on the floor. The door opened and a figure walked in. It was Frederick. I wanted rage to take hold of me but instead fear did. Why couldn't I stand up to this man? Why was it so hard for me to l
Chapter 87AUSTIN’S POVI took casual steps through the school foyer when I was roughly rushed and pinned to the wall. I struggled and anger took hold of me when I realize it was Ken. “What the fuck did you do with Mirabel?” he yelled in my face and I pushed him off out of anger. What the hell did he mean by that statement?“What is that supposed to mean” I asked and what I got was a punch“Don’t you dare lie to me” he said and I retaliated with an equal hard punch.“I don’t know what the fuck you are talking about” I pushed him as hard as I could, sending him to the wall.“She followed you didn’t she? Now the police has declared her missing” he said and I was taken aback. No wonder I couldn’t feel her anymore.“And don’t you dare play dumb with me” he said. That statement caused rage to flow through me.“I did nothing to her. The both of us know you are more likely to hurt more than I would” I sent glares at him. “And don’t dare come for me like that” I said as I walked away.The fir
Chapter 88Bella’s POVI tilted my head to the other side as I struggled to keep my eyes open. I opened them and I almost shut them back. I panicked instantly as I stood up from where I was. I wasn’t at Marcus’s mansion. Rather I was in the woods under a tree in broad day light. I didn’t even know how I got there.I remembered vividly that I slept on the chair I was chained to, but now I had miraculously appeared in the woods. Well not miraculously because the sun shone brightly and as a vampire, I dared not step an inch. I sat under the tree. Whoever did that surely did it to punish me, but at least staying in a tree was better than being chained to a chair. It felt like forever but the day later got darker and it was fit for me to leave. I was already exhausted from sitting for long and basically rotating round the tree due to the rotation of the sun.I ran as fast as I could in a particular direction. It was hard at first but when I got to a point, the woods became familiar. I had
Chapter 89Christine’s POV“Watch, he is going to drop right now” I said with a grin on my face as I watched the drunk man stagger down the road. While Jace and I watched from a distance. The lad eventually dropped and I cheered.Jake shook his head. “He hesitated. You said right now”“It’s practically the same thing dude”“Oh don’t sweat it” he threw the cigarette he had on his lips. “Are you coming?” he asked, already walking to where the man was laid.“Common Jace are we going to feed on him?”“He is a gift from the heaven and yet you ask such a question?”“It’s better when they are awake. I like to watch them struggle” I smiled and he smiled back“Sometime I feel so proud of how far you have gone in this”I smirked as I walked toward him. “Don’t you miss the whining baby anymore?”“Oh we should stop this, it feels so wrong, you fucking turned me to a monster” he mimicked me in a high pitched voice and I smacked him hard on the shoulder.“Ouch” he glared at me. “Easy, vampires have
Ken’s POVBeing starved wasn’t the the first thing that they did to me. the constant spraying of vervain on me made it even worse for me. Marcus already had me. what I didn’t understand was why he continuously did this to torture me. I sat weakly on the floor with my two hands chained. Where I was in a dark room that stank so badly. It was so small and hot too. they had kept me there for a week and I hadn’t gotten a taste of blood. Now imagine how tired I had been. It was hard to even stand up properly. To seat was an equal war The door to my cell opened and I thought the guards have come as usual to give me my daily dose of vervain. I was surprised when they started undoing the shackle that had held me bound. Effortlessly the two guards jacked me and dragged me toward the door because I couldn’t feel my legs so walking was a bit hard for me. they led me through the hallway and I couldn’t count how many times I stubbed my toes on the hard surface. With the way my legs stung, I
Chapter 91Ken’s POV“psst” I heard from the the door of the cell I was kept in. At first I thought it was my imagination because it was highly unlikely for the guards to call me like that. They’d usually just walk in and drag me out in the most ruthless way ever. Each time I heard the door open, I always braced myself to be man handled by them.“Psst” I heard again and I knew I wasn’t imagining the sound. Slowly I dragged myself of the floor up until the length of the chain restricted me from reaching the door. I groaned in frustration because each time I tried to push past my limit, the shackle strapped firmly to my wrist dug into my already sore wrist, causing my injury to sting the more.“What the fuck do you want” I let out in rage and frustration“Relax it me Christine” I heard and my anger was pacified almost immediately.“Christine. How did you make it past the guards” the last time I checked, the place was heavily guarded with guards and I didn’t think they’d willingly let so
FinaleThe next morning I woke up to a text from Christine that read; “come online” I still had a lot of sleep in my eyes, but when I was able to check why she told me to come online, the sleep left my eyes. It felt as though I was dreaming, but I wasn’t. Behold, behind my screen was my older self and there was a caption that said missing.What the actual fuck? I asked myself. The last time I checked, I didn’t exist anymore, so there was no was no way someone who didn’t exist was declared missing.I called Christine again because it wasn’t adding at all. The worse thing was, it was all over the internet. They said I had been missing for 6 months and that was the duration in which I had lived in my new body.“Did you see the girl? Remember her right? She asked even before I had the chance to and that only succeeded in adding to my confusion.“Remember? Christine you were the one who said you didn’t know this girl” I remembered vividly when I asked her the first time I happened to find
The other half of me My leg was placed on the edge of the window, ready to jump out when I heard a beep from my phone and I stopped. I brought it out from where I kept it firmly in my pockets and answered the call. it was from Christine. “Mirabel” she called out the moment I answered the call. “ken is awake,” she said and my heart skipped a beat. What the fuck did she say. How was that even possible? I asked myself. Well, there was only one way for me to find out. I ended the call and was about to jump down from my window once more when the door to my room suddenly opened. My mind jumped out of my body, but it calmed down when I realize it was just Rebecca, but it picked up pace when I realize I was about to do something that she had warned me not to do. “what are you doing?” she asked and I knew it was already late. If I wanted to see ken, I had to make up my mind to go against her. “I’m sorry mum,” I said and jumped down and landed perfectly from a building as high as that with
Kira’s POV“I have to tell you something” I said to Christine, but didn’t realize I was yelling. She almost choked on the cigarette between her lips.“What the fuck Kira” she frowned at me, but I didn’t care. I was desperate at that point.“I need to tell you something” I repeated like she hadn’t heard me the first time. How desperate was I. but why I wouldn’t when I got the news of me leaving this body? I needed to let her know incise me bumped into her in my next life, she wouldn’t see me as a freak.I looked around to see if there was anyone lurking around because I was most definitely going to be called a freak if they heard what I was about to say. I was certain Christine was going to think of me the same way, but I had to tell her.“I am right here” the frown on her face hardened and I had to mutter a little sorry to make her be less mad at me for almost killing her seconds ago.“I am living this body” I said in the lowest tone possible” I said, but the look on her face didn’t c
Chapter 100I boiled in rage as I ran to where Xavier was. He could hear me calling but he chose to play deaf and pretend I was important at all and it pissed me off.I tapped him hard on the shoulder when I got to where he was and he turned to look at me in frustration. “Don’t you dare look at me like that? I am the one who has the right to be angry” I said and he rolled his eyes at me as though I was the one who had the problem. He was the one trying to take my mate away from me.“you can't tell me how to look at you” he shot at me. true, but there was countless way he didn’t have to act like a jerk. Why did he have to be so mean all the time, like I was the cause of his many problems?Where are you taking ken to?” I asked he replied plainly and tried to walk inside the car, but I stopped him by holding his hand. He turned to look at me with a lot of disgust in his eyes.“do you seem to realize you have no right to be a part of his life anymore,e,” he said and I scoffed.What
Chapter 99 “hey you” my feet went as fast as they could at the sight of the witch. I totally forgot I had to follow Christine home at the sight of her and I started chasing after her instead. The sound of shuffling footsteps gave me the clue that Christine was just behind me running as well. “Hey!” I knew she could hear me because she wasn’t deaf and had no earphone plugged in, but she kept walking as though she didn’t know I was talking to her. Why did she have to be a bitch all the time_ the kind that knew the perfect way to get me mad I increased my speed and surprisingly that bitch increased her speed? Before I knew it, she was running and I knew I would be damned if I let her run off like that. I and Christine also increased our speed. “Hey stop!” I yelled. It would have been better if I at least knew her name, but I didn’t and that made it weird for me. She kept running until she got into the school female’s toilet and she ran in. “what the actual fuck” said Christine who w
Chapter 98I didn’t sleep a wink at night. Apart from the fact I was angry at the witch for playing with me the previous day. I couldn’t also sleep due to the strong migraine I developed due the beating I received from Bella. I shouldn’t have concluded that I was any match for her.“Oh my God what happened to your face?” I heard a voice and I turned to look at Christine. I had no idea I had walked past her. My mind was only fixed on one person and that was the witch who I didn’t know her name.And yes, I had forgotten to put makeup on my face because I didn’t see the point. Life was almost meaningless because ken wasn’t there.“I got into a fight” I could tell from how her eyes widened that she was surprised. Yes I wasn’t the type to get into a fight, but with the overwhelming frustration and unvented anger, it was hard not lose my mind over a slight provocation.“What the actual fuck” she let out.“Ken’s sister” I let out a distressed air. “That bitch thinks I am the reason he didn’t
Chapter 97Bella’s POVIt was hours since I woke up and I hadn’t moved an inch from my bed. Life made no sense to me anymore. It felt as though I should lay in my bed forever and wallow in my misery for eternity. Maybe that way, I will be closer to my brother who was not awake anymore. I tossed to the other side of my bed as I heard a buzz from my phone. It was no doubt from Xavier. He was probably calling to check if I was still breathing.I ignored the text at first but when I became too much, I groaned in frustration as I tossed to pick it up. “Bella for fuck sake, if you won’t take my call, at least reply my text” he said and I rolled my eyes. Did he expect me to be okay when I had a brother that was prone to be lifeless for almost 20 years or even more?The moment I tossed my phone to the bed in anger, I heard it ring by my side. “Fuck you Xavier” I groaned in frustration, but didn’t ignore the call this time. I knew he was going to keep calling me until I finally took the call,
Chapter 96I turned to leave but he didn’t let me. He pulled me back to look at him. At that point, my cheeks where soaked in tears. I didn’t wipe it off before the sped he used to pull me back deterred me from doing so. His eyes softened the more when he noticed I was crying.“Do you realize how worried I was about you” he asked and I just sobbed. Not caring if we were being stared at. “I went to your house several times and your mother wouldn’t even let me see you”I placed my hand on my head as I sighed. Poor woman. She must have gone through a lot. Now I was planning of leaving her again. No wonder there was a lot of hurt in her eyes as she yelled at me. “She was just scared” I blurted out.“So where did you go Mirabel” he asked more worriedly because I wouldn’t give him a reply.“Can we talk outside instead? I am not comfortable with these stares” I said and I noticed how reluctant he was. Almost as though he didn’t trust me enough to stay put and have a conversation with him out
Kira’s pov“I am not coming to your boyfriend’s house” I made it clear to Christine over the phone.“Jace is not my boyfriend” she defended herself.“Oh that’s his name. Well whatever he is to you, I am not coming to that house” I said with all seriousness, but she ended up chuckling. It wasn’t as though I hated him. He just had a way of making me feel so uncomfortable. His eyes held a lot of hatred each time he gave up at me and I couldn’t help but wonder why Christine saving me pissed him off so much.“He is not home and he not coming back anytime soon, so you have nothing to worry about” she assured him.“I am not just not comfortable with him around” I said truthfully.“He is not always like this, inside he is just a cute bunny” she said and I rolled my eyes.“I knew you’d say something like that. Anyway imp almost there”“Alright” she hung up the call.After about 5 minutes, I was already at Christine’s house. I packed my car by the road side and made it across the street.Standi
