2024-10-29 19:42:56“Boss I am really sorry for dropping in late I was-”
“-That's a first so I'll let you off today, anymore slacking and you're fired” My boss said dryly. My eyes widened, wasn't that what he said the last time? H-how could he still want to keep me despite my slacking off.
“Bella” Boss said, snapping me out of my hopeful thoughts. “Yes?” I answered quickly.
“Do you want to get fired?”
I shook my head quickly and went back to work. Mixing drinks and serving them along with entertaining and flirting with higher ups guests as I served them.
Once in a while, a few of them would want to speak to me, though most of them said things in relation to me dating them or even having a one night stand with them. I turned them down, but with humour and friendliness so they didn't feel offended and decide not to visit our bar anym

“Draco stop being so moody jeez, I'll take you to Aunty Alexa later, okay? I have to go to work and I'll come get you later okay?” I said to Draco who was looking at me weirdly as though I just said a foreign language.Ever since Cameron disappeared two days ago, Draco became like this, bored of everything and everyone. I guess Draco missed him too.Thankfully, today was Saturday. I would have to work long hours from 5pm to 2am and since Cameron disappeared all of a sudden I had to put Draco in the care of Alexa and Kelly from 4pm to 2am. It was incredibly inconvenient because I had to take Draco back home afterwards, while hoping that I would find Cameron in the house someday.Thankfully, Kelly gave me an extra key so I would take Draco without disturbing her and Alexa's sleep. Also, I started driving Cameron's car since his key was intact and he wasn't around anyways.Th
The ex-wife CHAPTER FORTY FOUR ‘What?’
After a few hours of scrubbing and washing every single nook and cranny of the store room, I fell on the ground and stared into space.I glanced at my phone many times to check the time. It was already a few minutes passed twelve but I didn't feel even the tiniest bit tired. I was anxious and scared.Now that I was alone, it wouldn't be difficult to find me. I had a bad feelings in my guts that something bad would happen soon.The words Cameron spoke to me a few days ago, in that rowdy forest came to mind suddenly.“Gosh! Love, our powers come from nature. In order to inherit the full potentials we can get, we need to take care of it. It's like taking care of the most important part of your body”I breathed in deeply.I am a witch, Beauty of Crescent moon. I want my powers and memories back.

“WHAT?!”“Do you want to get fired?” boss asked boredly.“-N-no i- no sir but-”“-How do appreciate your boss?” Boss interupted my stuttering.I stared at the ground, confused and desperate. What to do? What to do?“What would you like me to do for you boss?” I asked seriously.“Drive me home.”I nearly choked for an instant, “What?”“Your car is really nice and really warm as well. How can you afford something so nice just by working at my bar. Hmm?” Boss said while inspecting Cameron's car which kinda annoyed me. I was already doing well by driving him home. Did he have to ask so many questions?“Actually it's-” I stopped, not knowing how to explain Cameron's and I relationship.

“Shhh you can never tell anyone what happened”“I don't plan to master, all I request for is to make that monster leave me alone. He never stops coming to my room at night, this can't keep happening-”“-You have to bear it, Beauty, after all, Dane is your father. If I kick him out all of a sudden, people will suspect something happened and I can't have that happen. If rumours travel around the whole realm our reputation will be ruined. But do not worry, I will speak to Dane to ensure it doesn't happen again-”“-But master-”“-Hurry now go to your room. I'll have your snake send wine to your room soon”I heard fading sounds and conversations ringing in my ears. I badly wanted to scream and escape the cage forcing me to
The ex-wife CHAPTER FORTY SEVEN ‘He talks too much’
Ice cave was still the same. Peaches, beautiful oceans, blue in the night, colourless and clear in the day, apple trees, beautiful red roses and white lilies.I entered the Ice cave and smiled at how warm it felt. There weren't much memories here. Mother and I used to live at the cottage, we only came here a few times to watch the full moon and crescent moon. Whenever the moon was crescent, we'd go to our past leader's graves to pay respect but whenever we couldn't go, we'd just pray and watch the crescent moon.But this was my favourite place, there was barely anyone passing by this place. And also, Cameron didn't know about this place. I never brought him here.I sat down on the ground and sighed deeply. It was the last day of winter, March 19 in the human's realm right now and here in crescent moon, the winter solstice was here. This evening, there would be darkness for a short while. It was a event celebrated in
The ex-wife CHAPTER FORTY EIGHT ‘Leader Atrix’
It had been a few years since I came to Crescent moon. Draco had accustomed to the weather, food, wine and even found a friend called Daniel.Everything had been going on smoothly and peacefully until I got a message from one of Leader Atrix's messengers. Leader Atrix asked me to see her which I didn't want to. At least, not anytime soon because I already knew what she wanted to say and I wasn't ready for that discussion.But no matter how I tried to ignore it I knew I would have to face it sooner or later.Draco had extreme dark energy he couldn't control sometimes, mostly because he wasn't around those who had similar powers as him. If otherwise, he would surely be able to control his powers well.There was a time Draco grabbed a plate of noddles to eat and they turned into black snakes instead, there was also time he also shook his friend arm and froze it. Ever since then, he lost Daniel, his best friend.
The ex-wife CHAPTER FORTY NINE ‘Bored’
“Mother where have you been?” Draco was the first person to bombard me with questions when i arrived back at Ice cave.“Have you eaten?” i asked, changing the topic.“Yes mother, all i have to do is imagine my favorite food in front of me and bam!”My eyes widened at that. Draco did it, didn't he?“When did you eat that??”“After you left. I ate fried rice, two big chicken legs and a very big fish head.” Draco said cheerfully.I immediately felt like passing out. I really wanted to pass out.“Go drink some water quickly” i said to Draco who looked at me inquisitively. Dread filled me as i stared into Draco's eyes.He did the manipulation spell.A manipulation spell could be done by any gods with energy- All it required was an imagina
The ex-wife CHAPTER FIFTY ‘Poison’
“Master, why did you decide to come to town today?”After a lot of critical thinking and persuasion from Draco, I decided to come out of my shell and walk around town a little.Surprisingly, it wasn't as peaceful and calm as I expected it to be.“What do you think will become of Crescent moon? Leader Atrix has been poisoned and the council is in turmoil, what do you think will happen when this news spread to the other realms? There are greedy realms aiming for this sort of opportunity..”“Especially Red moon-”“-Don't say that. Those tribe are weak now, we signed a peace treaty with them so they can't possibly rebel now and besides there are a few red moonlites around here, don't let them hear you” another responded in a hushed tone. I was the most confused. I saw Leader Atrix a few days ago and she looked just fine. How could she be poisoned?I turned to ask Ziyah

“You're probably in a better place now. I saw your will. You gave me everything you had. You clearly knew you would die soon.” I said while forcing back a chuckle as i stare at Kelly's headstone. “I sold everything and gave it away as charity and donated to a few scientists to find the cure to your disease so other patients can hopefully recover.” “I-i hope you're happy with what i did.” I said. I put my hands in my jean pocket and turned to leave when i saw a familiar face knee on my grave while holding a bunch of flowers in his hands. “Bella..” he sighed. “I know i am not worthy to come here but please forgive me. I-i am sorry i forced you to kill yourself. I-i only wanted to scare you, I didn't know.. i didn't know my boys would go too far.. I-i am really sorry.” I was beyond surprised. Wasn't this Jarrod, my human ex-lover? He really had some guts. After killing me he came here to ask forgiveness. I laughed, “Jarrod.” He shivered and turned to look me. His eyes widened and h

“Are you sure you're alright?” I asked for the hundredth time after Kelly started complaining of an intense stomach pain from the coffee shop even when i helped her rest on her comfortable bed. I felt really bad for her.“Should i take you to the hospital?” I asked and Kelly moaned painfully, “What for? So they can tell me I'm running out of time and prescribed some horrible drugs destined to make me choke and kill me?”“Fine. Just stay in bed and I'll wake you up later to do some yoga exercises, perharps it'll ease the pain.”After a whole painful week of having to listen to Kelly's whining, i felt even more scared. She refused to go to the hospital and what more? Insists she will die soon.“Let's go on a stroll and we can even bump into your lover. Isn't that nice?” I asked and Kelly eyes lit up. “Yeah!”Halfway into the stroll, i w

“Bella, are you alright?” Kelly asked while helping me from under the table. I nodded hesitatedly and watched as the grim reaper disappear right under everyone's noses.“Omg.. look at the little girl she's..”“Dead”A woman in her forties ran to the scene of the accident and bursted into tears, “Amanda!”The trailer who crushed the little girl didn't even bother to check what happened.“Hello 911? There's just been an accident..”My eyes caught a familiar face staring at me angrily from across the street but before i could take a closer look, it was gone.Suddenly i heard a loud cry, “Old lady be careful!”A taxi pulled over in front of Kelly. Thankfully, I was fast enough to pull Kelly out of the way.“Thank you!” i said to the teenager who alerted Kelly and I.“We

I took a step closer to Kelly with a smirk, “Of course i treated you sincerely but i couldn't fully trust in the matters of the heart because i loved Cameron back then and i couldn't bear losing him. To be honest, you never made me feel secure and i was insecure about my looks and body too. I thought Cameron would forget me when he finds a prettier lady.. oh how petty was i!”Kelly sniffed, “To be honest, I was a little jealous of your luck. You always had the good guys after you.. I can barely believe you would be jealous of me.”I shook my head, “I was human after all, it is not surprising I was petty minded.”Kelly sighed in relief, “If only I had the opportunity to live again, I would live very well.”I helped Kelly sit on the couch and she sighed again, “The only thing I don't regret in my life is meeting you and Alexa. It must have been fate, trying to tie me up with

Was this really Kelly? If she hadn't spoke in her usual condensing manner I wouldn't believe it was her.“Kelly?” i asked as I reached out to caress her now, wrinkly face.It was impossible.. was it really her?“Bella” Said Kelly as she pulled me into a warm hug.I was surprised, I didn't know if it would be right to hug back. After so many years, she still remembered me.Tears rolled down my cheeks as i remembered everything we did together before we separated.“Bella,” said Kelly as she pulled away from the hug and drag me into her house. Nothing much had changed except the furnitures and curtains. I smiled.“Sit down, I'll get you some tea. You must have a lot of tell me!”I smiled and watched as Kelly disappeared into the kitchen. I sat on the couch and sighed. I didn't expect her to respond so casually to seeing me again. I thought she'd

I nodded and went back to my job, serving drinks.“So.. are you getting married?” My boss asked all of a sudden making me shake my head vigorously. “Of course not sir, why would you think that?”“Your ring” My boss said boredly. I started at the ring in my index finger embarrassedly. I couldn't believe I almost forgot about it. A subtle smile appeared on my lips on realizing how simple but beautiful the ring looked. Like a bunch of red roses.“Whoever gave you that, you should marry him”“What?” I nearly choked on hearing my boss's words. Did I perhaps hear wrong?

“Do you want a ride?” Asked a young gentleman as he parked his car in front of me.Without any hesitation, I entered the car and pulled on the seatbelt. But it didn't seem to work like I expected.The gentleman chuckled and pressed a button near my seat and the belt presented itself in front of me and I nearly jumped.“What sort of sorcery is this?” I exclaimed and touched the belt which instantly wrapped itself around me and fixed itself in the small box next to me.“The latest human technology.”I glanced the gentleman in the driver's seat and realized he wasn't human either.“What are you? A demon?” I asked as he started the car.He stopped the car and sighed. “How can you tell I am not human?”“You're putting on a black Italian hat, black sunglass and suit. Also I cannot feel your soul- you don't have

“It is time to commence the coronation of the newest council member, excellency beauty.”I was dressed in a red bright dress with flowers decorating my ankles and wrists.Today was a full moon, the perfect time for my inauguration ceremony.After a few months of nursing my health, I was back in shape. Although there were a few awkward pauses in my vision, asides from that I was good.Asides from the realm elders, the council and Leader Atrix. There was no one else here. My identity was supposed to be a secret. Ordinary people couldn't know me unless it was absolutely necessary.The sky darkened and the moon illuminates the dark sky. I could feel the radiation from the moon feeling my spirit. I sighed in content and stopped in front of the burning firewood.“Kneel” One of the seven elders said and I did. Another elder approached me with a tablet in her hand.

When I woke up I felt much better and healed, the cave was warm and I was having a nice daydream- Laying in Cameron's lap next to the fireplace and the scent of his body engulfing my nostrils.I wouldn't ask for anything else.“I wish it wasn't a dream” I said longingly as the invisible hand caressed my face.“I wish I came for you earlier.”My breath hitched when I heard his imaginary voice in my ears.“Please..” I said, “Please don't ever leave me alone.”“I-i would never, ever leave you again, my love, I'm here.”I smiled, “That is good.”I closed my eyes again and when I opened them, Cameron was staring right at my face.I was stunned. Was this real?“Cameron..” I whispered trailing my fingers across his cheeks. “Are you real?”
