☆☆Mia POV☆☆
“Mia,” the teacher shouted out loud and all heads turned to me as she headed towards me.
She hovered over my head and looked at my exam paper and then at me. I was in shock because of what just happened and I couldn’t respond.
I couldn’t speak or move. So, she just stood there staring at me. I glanced at her and then at the paper again.
Then I mustered whatever strength I had left in me and said: “I think I am done. I will leave now” and bolted towards the door as all eyes were following me.
I came out of class panting heavily like I was running a marathon although I was exhausted mentally and not physically.
I was supposed to meet Kevin after the exam session at the door of his assigned class so that I can pass the horseshoe secretly to him.
Since I finished the exam earlier than we thought, I headed to the cafeteria to look for him.
I entered the ha
☆☆Mia POV☆☆Ben’s words were still ringing in my ears when suddenly I heard Kevin’s statement which was weird: “Mia I have a confession to make”“What the hell is going on today?” I thought to myself as I looked at Kevin speechless. He stammered a little and then scratched the back of his head trying to find his lost words.“EMMM” I looked at him and smiled warmly.“What is it? Kevin” I asked, now I feel worried. He took a deep breath saying: “I just don’t know how you are going to react?”“Something bad happened?” I asked as my stomach started to ache out of anxiousness.“NO, NO” he assured me while shaking both his hands.“Then what is it?” I asked worryingly“I haven’t been honest with you Mia,” he said, putting his hands on the table and leaning in a little.&ldqu
☆☆Kevin POV☆☆My eyes were already glued to Mia when she screamed, but I saw nothing. In just two long strides I reached her: “what is it?”She seemed well even standing in the same spot. I looked around and eyed her up and down but she was perfectly fine.“EWWWWW” she shouted out loud. She placed her palm over her left shoulder and wiped off something.I looked at her palm and then back to her: “what happened?” I asked again, checking her shoulder. Again it looked fine.Then in a childish, crying tone she raised her palm to my face and replied back: “A bird just peed on me” I straightened my back and looked at her face: “you scared me. So what? Just wipe it” I smiled back in relief.She got a few tissues out of her bag and started to clean up her shoulder and palm while asking: “so, did you find it?”I sighed loudly and replied: “No. Now what?” she rais
☆☆Mia POV☆☆I dropped my body on the nearest chair outside the operating room waiting for any doctor or a nurse to come out and tell us what was going on, but no one came.Kevin’s parents sat down on the bench opposite to me. Kevin’s mom was sobbing soundly, while his father sat next to her hugging her shoulders and consoling her, and trying as much as possible to stay strong himself.I looked at the clock on the wall and I felt the tic-toc was beating in my chest. My heart was trembling rapidly, I felt cold inside and my body was shivering uncontrollably.Every passing minute felt like a year in waiting.I impatiently took a breath in to calm myself and looked down at my hands. They were both covered in dried dark blood.
☆☆Mia POV☆☆ The moment I saw the caller’s name “Granny” pop up on the screen, I lost every bit of composure that was left in me. My body shivered uncontrollably and I panicked. “Did she find out about the horseshoe? What the hell am I going to say to her? What if she asks me to give it back? How will I tell her that I lost it?” I thought about all this while staring at the phone before saying: “I wish you were here Kevin” I sighed and picked up the call within the last ring thinking whatever happens. “Hello” I greeted her but my voice came out hoarse. “Mia, sweetie. How are you doing?” her concerned voice triggered guilt within my conscience. My dried eyes started to tear up again. I sobbed loudly, my emotions were all over. I don’t really know the reason why I was crying hysterically lik
Ch.19 COMA ☆☆Mia POV☆☆ As soon as we heard the nurse’s words, we all came out, running of the waiting room and headed to the ICU where Kevin was kept. The doctor was already there; he was holding some files and charts while talking to one of the nurses assigned to the care. “Make sure to check his vitals hourly and report back to me” the doctor ordered the nurse as she nodded her head and then he turned his head to us. “Mr Jackson, Kevin’s vital readings are not good. His blood pressure and heart rate keep going up and down vigorously. We are trying our best to stabilize the situation. For the moment he is okay, I will allow you all to go in and see him but please be quick and don’t talk much” Kevin’s mother smiled saying: “I will go in first” the doctor nodded his head and opened the ICU door for her. 5 minutes later, she came out and she looked white pale like she had seen a gh
☆☆Kevin POV☆☆ I kept on losing and gaining consciousness inside my head numerous times, before; I started to feel awake for longer periods of time. I couldn’t move my body or see anything. I could only hear voices around me. First, the voices were lost and vague and then I tried to focus harder and started to recognise a door opening, nurses talking, and different footsteps around me. That was frustrating really, I needed to wake up. I was good and conscious now. I didn’t black out for quite some time. I tried to concentrate to wake myself up or even move any part of my body, but I couldn’t. I felt like I weighed 100 pounds, my body refused to obey and sank into the darkness more. I surrendered to the situation and calmed down again. I started to think about everything, it was all I can do for now. How long have I been in this mind state? What happened to Mia after I was hit? Did she find
☆☆Mia POV☆☆“What the hell is your problem?” I screamed at him. He turned to face me and I can say that he was shocked that I came to confront him. But, I just couldn’t take it especially when I didn't do anything to offend him, I didn’t even know him.“Excuse me, are you talking to me?” he replied coldly while pointing a finger to himself, like I was some kind of freak. His attitude agitated me more, I raised my voice replying: “Do you see any idiot here other than yourself?”His eyes widened and he opened his mouth to talk, but I cut him off saying: “Don’t bother to say anything. I just came after you to tell you that Kevin’s parents know nothing about the horseshoe and that you shouldn’t mention it to them
☆☆Kevin POV☆☆I opened my eyes and saw Mia opening the door and stepping in. She was surprised beyond belief, like she saw a ghost, as if I was brought back from the dead. She dropped the cup from her hand and came running into my arms saying: “Kevin, you are awake”She crushed me into a bear hug. I lost my senses for a moment and wrapped my hands around her tiny waist. Then, I heard her chuckle. I looked at her puzzled and confused. She looked up to me and I saw tears sparkling down her cheeks.“Why was she crying?” I asked myself, and then she freed herself from my arms. She was blushing red. Why did she hug me? We never had this kind of friendship.“I have to call your parents now,” she said and took out her phone and made a call a few feets away from me
Ch. 54 THE PROMISE ☆☆Mia POV☆☆ The sound of the slap echoed through the walls of the bathroom like thunder, and instantly turned her cheek red. It felt so good to finally repay her for the evil she did to me. Surprised by my move, she glared at me but I didn’t give her the chance to recover as I aggressively grabbed her hair, opened the faucet and dragged her head under the running water. She started squirming and held onto my arm trying desperately to free her hair. But I clasped onto her with iron fingers not giving any chance. “You bitch” She screamed loudly and I just wiped her face with more water. Her makeup was smeared and she looked hideous showing her true self. Satisfied with what I had done, I finally let her go. I watched her drop to the floor panting and wiping the water droplets off her face. I took a step back and decided to scare her even more, so I just flamed myself up and enjoyed the horrified look on her face. She tried to stand up but failed as she tripped on
☆☆Mia POV☆☆ I stood in front of the mirror staring at my reflection. I admired the ocean blue dress that hugged my curves and smiled happily to myself. I twirled around and watched the long skirt ruffle the ground. The princess cut sleeves exposed my shoulders and collarbone making it sexy and elegant. I couldn’t help the happiness bubble from exploding inside me. I was finally going out on the prom date with Kevin. I slipped into the silver heels and twirled one last time in front of the mirror in excitement thinking that it has been a month now since we destroyed the horseshoe and there was no sign of Kevin’s father or the syndicate. They might be lurking in the dark waiting for the right moment to strike but I would be ready for whatever they do. I wouldn’t allow anyone to ruin this night for me. “Stop twirling you will fall on your face” Diana’s sarcastic voice sounded in my room. I looked at her still not believing that we have joined forces and she has become my sleep witch.
☆☆Mia POV☆☆ The essence of life was seeping out of me and I could barely hang on to dear life when out of sudden, my batteries got charged to the fullest without a warning. It was like an electric shock ran through my body reviving all my senses at once and when I opened my eyes I saw Kevin flying in the middle of the air. I gasped loudly for air as I watched him hit the ground violently. I turned around and saw Diana holding my hand and Jack screaming at the top of his lungs while shooting at the hunters. I was confused for just a few seconds about how Jack and Diana came here but then I rushed to Kevin who looked like a lifeless corpse. “Shit, not again” I screamed out thinking that every time something happened, he ended up on the verge of death. “Kevin” I called out his name and kneeled next to him. He wasn’t breathing, I felt my heart being punched inside and tears burned my eyes but then I heard Diana saying: “Hurry cast a healing spell. Like I just did on you” then she fire
☆☆Kevin POV☆☆The bullets pierced the tranquility of the night and hit the tombstones next to Mia. With such distraction, Mia’s flames ceased and I forgot that she could deflect bullets. So, acting upon my instinct I threw myself on her. I pressed her on the ground and shielded her against one of the tombstones saying: “Are you okay?”“Yes, Kevin. Get off me; we have to cast the spell now” she wiggled out of my embrace: “they can’t hurt us. Come on let me finish this”“Wait a second” she froze in her place and I looked at the men firing at us. They were professional hunters; dressed up in black and in full gear. I thought about it for a second and realized that the syndicate didn’t know that Mia was now a fully fledged witch. So, they sent armed men and not a witch to capture her.“Okay, go” Before I could finish my words, Mia hastily went back to where the horseshoe was and I could see bullets flying around us, which surely confused the hunters.She just stood with the spell in her
☆☆Mia POV☆☆When we reached granny’s house it was around mid-day, after spending more than 2 hours fortifying the house against any possible coming attacks from Kevin’s father or the syndicate, Kevin and I settled on the couch. Completely tired and drained out of energy. All I did was close my eyes for a few seconds to rest and I fell into deep slumber instantly counting sheep.I didn’t know for how long I slept but when I opened my eyes again, it was already dark outside and there was no one around me. I blinked a few times, remembering where I was and what was waiting for me in the next few hours.I stood up and walked towards the kitchen to find granny sitting with the diary in front of her. Seeing her like that I couldn’t help the warmth that swept over my heart. I have missed her so much and I didn’t want to go through all this ever again. Sensing my presence, she turned her head smiling: “Oh, you’re up”“Mmm” I walked to the table and hugged her tightly.“How are you feeling?” s
☆☆Mia POV☆☆ The moments that pass by our lives defining who we are and what we want, are rare and you can wait a lifetime before having one of those. My vision cleared gradually and I found myself in the school cafeteria with Ben sitting in front of me, his hand holding mine,and murmuring something in an inaudible tone. It took me a few seconds to register that this was the last day of our exams, when I almost lost Kevin all thanks to that idiot in front of me acting all innocent and cute. I stared at him not believing myself for falling for that dumbass stupid talk and hurting Kevin the way I did. I mentalling slapped my face when I heard him saying: “I will not force you. But I will wait for you tonight at 7 o’clock at the coffee shop” Suddenly he stood up and was about to leave. Last time I let him manipulate me into going out with him and it almost cost me the love of my life, but not this time, I stood up as well startling him while saying: “I am sorry Ben, but I won't go out
☆☆Kevin POV☆☆I watched Mia cut her palm with a knife and her blood dripped inside the bowl. We looked at each other and watched Marie step outside the circle with a sad look on her face saying: “time to say goodbye”Her eyes sparkled with farewell tears as she tried to smile sadly and looked at Mia: “You’re a great witch, never underestimate yourself and you’ll be glorious” smiling back, Mia nodded her head and wiped the tears with her hand.“I don’t have to tell you to keep her safe, right?” she said to me and I just chuckled back. Finally she looked at Jack and Diana rolled her eyes up and sarcastically said: “you two have issues”She retrieved her diary and handed it to Jack saying: “this has to go back with you” then she handed Mia the book of shadows along with a paper that had the spell written on it and started to light up the candles one by one saying: “I altered the spell to send you back to the day of a blue full moon night. Each one of you will return to his body, doing wh
☆☆Mia POV☆☆Rage and revenge were the only feelings that steered me at the moment. They were liberating and I felt an enormous amount of power within me that I couldn’t contain, waiting to explode any second.Diana wanted to use this against me. She irritated and pushed me beyond my limits and I almost lost control at some point, but when I realized that she barely attacked me and allowed me to hit her numerously, I understood her plan. So I decided to let her fall into her own trap.It was fun to let her think that she actually won and that I lacked knowledge about being a witch. Of course that made her confident and she mocked me even more, till the moment she mentioned granny. That was when I totally lost control over myself and decided to stop playing and kill her. I wanted to put out the revengeful fire burning inside me. My anger was like a wild animal hungry for her blood.But what I never expected was for my powers to awaken. I was confused and scared at first since in an impu
☆☆Mia POV☆☆There is a moment that comes once in a lifetime, when you feel the fire burn through your bones and your heart pumps blood so fast, that’s when you realize that the time to fight the greatest battle of your life has come. When I turned and saw Diana in her usual fiery curly hair, bold red lipstick, and devious eyes, I felt an immense amount of revengeful power surge through my veins, which I couldn’t control. My body heated up and my hands shook violently, I just wanted to strangle her and plug her eyes out. I felt Kevin’s hand around my waist, he was holding me back. He knew I wanted to kill her. “You found the book” she smirked mockingly and I saw her eyes shine with amusement; she was enjoying this too much. That was her revenge back at Jack. I wanted revenge too, she took away my granny and I wasn’t the weakling I used to be. Marie has taught me very well. “There is no way in hell, you will touch that book” Kevin replied back angrily as I hugged the book closer to
