Year’s back…“Sister, what do you think you’re doing, hanging around a vampire? They are dangerous!” Devereux scolded her sister, Yvette.“I still do not understand why we hate vampires so much. They don’t even despise us half as much as we despise them. There’s a lot about them that you and other witches do not know.” Yvette defended.“And you happen to know? Just by hanging out with him some weeks ago? You have to be really careful, have you forgotten how mom died?” Devereux said. She wanted to remind her of how their mother was killed in cold blood by a vampire.“That vampire was rogue, they know better now. They even feed on animals, so what’s there to worry about?” Yvette said.“Have you forgotten that Darin was once insane? He can become the monster he was again.” Devereux said, trying very hard to convince her sister to leave Darin. She feared that she would meet the same fate as their mother. She was only trying to protect her as her elder sister.“He’s fine now.” Yvette revol
“What’s wrong? Where is Yvette?” Devereux asked. “You can’t see Yvette.” Darin said.“Why not?” Devereux asked. “Because she is dead, I killed her but it was not on purpose, I loved her so much, more than life itself but I could not control myself. You were right, I did not deserve her. If I had let her be, she would still be alive till now.” Darin said.Tears rolled down Devereux’s cheeks as she heard Darin say those words but she expected them, it was her plan all along.“I had to do this. My sister is dead because of you. If she had listened to me, she would have listened to me and saved herself this whole drama.” Devereux said.“Wh-What do you mean?” Darin asked. He could not understand what she was saying.“I meant everything I said. I brought back your insanity, you were healed but I brought it back. The plan was to scare Yvette away but now, she is dead because of her stubbornness.” Devereux said.“You are insane! You killed my wife!” Darin screamed. His heart hurt so bad. He
Over time, Minx had become more conscious of her environment and her body, she knew that Gina drew her blood to check for one of two things; how much she is acquainted with magic or the bloodline of her baby. Minx strongly believed that she wanted her blood to know her baby’s bloodline, the race he belonged to because it was difficult to guess. A child, conceived of a wolf-blood witch and a werewolf, what could his species be? Minx did not worry much about this because she just believed he would take on the one that had the stronger gene; a werewolf or a witch or a wolf-blood witch.She wondered why Gina was so curious about it. Minx threw the drugs the witch doctor gave to her. It appeared that they were not good for her health, Gina was sure that Minx would be fast asleep when she walked into the room. For a moment, Minx regretted allowing Gina to take her blood. She would have refused to have her blood collected. Shit! What would she do now. She was very reckless earlier, all i
“This is not your first assignment, why are you delaying?” a woman said over the phone.“I…I I’m sorry but the thing is, the spell is now working, it’s as though something is blocking it.” Gina said.“But you said the girl does not practice magic. How come she is impenetrable?” The woman asked.“I don’t know, I’ll keep trying.” Gina said.“You know how important this project is to us. You must get it done or you face the repercussions.” The woman threatened.“That won’t be necessary, madam.” Gina said as she dropped the call.Few years back..“I’m sure you all have been doing your rituals, the selection is in a few weeks. Whether you die or live, it is for a just cause.” Jason, the teacher if the regents said.A hand was raised. “Yes?” Jason said.“Is it compulsory that the rest of the people who fail to become high priestesses would be killed?” Gina asked.“Yes, according to our customs.” Jason replied.“There is only one reason for enrolling in this Regency, and that is to strive t
Unmaking vampires was not a very difficult thing for West and the witches to do because they possessed the very first grimoire made by witches of the old. Most of the spells there were very ancient and powerful too; the witches of the past were believed to be the creators of everything, including vampires. That was not farfetched from the truth, witches indeed created vampires and it would only take a powerful witch like West to undo it.“We have found the spell, your highness,” West said to Roman who was standing at the front door, looking at the fountain, springing out water in beautiful projections. Anyone would guess that it is his second best thing in the world, of course, his first is terrorizing packs and seizing power by all means necessary.“So what are you waiting for? Get on with it already.” Roman commanded as he turned back to face West who bowed his head in reverence.“It doesn’t work that way, we would need a vampire, preferably, one with a sire line. This spell is v
“It is done, sir,” Peter said as he got back into the building after carrying out his mischief. He made sure to be very careful, if Elijah got wind of what was happening, he knew that the consequences would be grave.“That is good. I will start the recruiting for new scientists, be prepared to welcome more talented people like yourself.” Elijah said with a brief smile.Peter knew that Elijah could not get the upgrade done even if he hired Einstein but he could not say a word. Peter knew that this new distraction would allow him to take a break and look after Darin.“Sir… I uhhh want to take a week’s break. I just lost my father and I have to go home to perform his burial rites.” Peter said as he prayed that Elijah would buy his excuse and permit him. Although he believed that he would because he had never gone on a break or leave before. This would be the first if Elijah plays ball.“Okay. That’s fine, you can go. I am truly sorry for your loss.” Elijah said. Peter was his best staf
Minx’s phone rang, it was her mother. She rushed to her room and shut the door before answering the call.“How are you, dear?” Mrs. Jackson inquired.“I’m not fine, mom. I think aunt Gina is up to something, I don’t think it’s safe anymore here.” Minx complained.“What is wrong?” Mrs. Jackson asked. She was getting worried, she wondered what Gina must have done this time that made Minx so scared.“I had that vision again, while I was sleeping. And just now, I caught her chanting a spell with some strange items. I will send them right away, I sense some kind of danger.” Minx said, she said was panting heavily as she said these words.“Minx! Minx!” Mrs. Jackson called out but Minx was not responding anymore. Mrs. Jackson was scared.Minx was having another episode, it was a warning that Gina is not all that she seems. Minx fell to the bed when it stopped after some minutes. She wanted to scream out her pain but she did not want to draw any attention to herself.Without hesitation, she s
Soon, Minx heard footsteps headed her way, it was Gina holding her phone in her hands. Minx thought that she wanted to give it back but she was shocked when she heard Gabriel’s voice over the phone, he had called her.“Minx, are you there? Minx?” Gabriel said. He was probably wondering why she did not say a word even after answering the call. And after a while, he hung up.“Give my phone back!” Minx thundered. “Perhaps, he could be the push you require to grant us access. The thing is, I could be wrong and you will be free to roam the earth with your baby but if I am not, then there is a problem. Just let us check first, how stubborn can you really be?” Gina said as she held Minx’s face.“You do not have to do this, aunt. I am your niece, your family yet you hunt me down like a wild animal and wish to kill my offspring. I cannot understand what you are going through or what kind of deal you have made with whoever but trust me, it’s not worth it.” Minx tried to explain things to Gina,
