All Chapters of Devils Lake: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Alaina was gone when Arianna woke up this morning. She turned on the screen of her phone and opened her picture gallery. Looking at the picture of her, Alaina, and Abigail. She wished Abigail was here, she would know what to do to help Alaina. She pulled up the keypad and dialed Abigail’s number, but she couldn’t make herself hit the dial button. Alaina would be furious at her if she called Abigail, but she didn’t know how else to help her sister. She was still debating about whether or not to call Abigail when she heard the knock at the front door. She opened up the door and was surprised to find Caleb on the other side. “What are you doing here?” she asked. “Where is Alaina?” he replied. “I don’t know, she was gone when I woke up. You shouldn’t be here.” she told him. “I don’t care. She can tell me to my face why she doesn’t want me since she doesn’t want to answer my phone calls.” Arianna sighed. “Come in then.” and she shut the door to behind him. He went over and sat o

Abigail woke up the next morning and checked her phone to see what time it was. She couldn’t believe what she saw. She sat there just staring at her phone, until Nicholas walked in. “Love, what’s wrong?” he asked. “Nothing is wrong, I just checked my phone to see what time it was, and I have a missed call and a message from Alaina.” she said. “I’m just shocked, I can’t believe she called.” “Is everything ok?” “I guess so. Her message just says to call her when I get a chance, she just wants to talk.” Abigail told him. Nicholas smiled. “Call her.” “I will.” She said, still sitting on the bed staring at her phone. She still couldn’t believe it. She figured Arianna would be the first one to reach out. She never thought it would have been Alaina. She dialed Alaina’s number, after a few rings she answered. Abigail listened to her sister break down in tears as she told her what had happened with a human and how Arianna wouldn’t speak to her because of it. Abigail’s heart broke fo

Caleb woke up the next morning and he thought for sure that his head was about to split open. He fumbled his way to his bathroom and found some ibuprofen. He turned on the water in the sink and threw a handful of ibuprofen into his mouth and stuck his head down to the faucet and got a mouthful of water and swallowed the pills. He turned off the water and went over to the toilet to relieve himself, trying not to throw up in the process. He washed his hands and went back into the bedroom. He realized that he had left his sliding glass door open. He walked over to the door and was about to close it when he seen the bottle of whiskey still sitting on the outside table. The hell with it, he thought to himself. He picked it up and took a big drink. He shut the door and walked over to his bed and picked up his phone, it was still off. He powered it back on and as soon as it powered up, it started chiming with message after message. Most of them were from Alaina, a few were from Drew and Lar

Alaina felt something was off with Caleb, but she just couldn’t put her finger on it. He was giving her a chance to make things right, but there was something nagging at her, telling her something wasn’t right. But she pushed those thoughts to the back of her mind and tried to forget about them. She was just happy that Caleb was at least giving her a chance. He hadn’t forgiven her yet, that much she could see in his eyes, but he was letting her be there, letting her try. Arianna had stayed in the hotel room, she had been trying to see what she could find on that amulet. She had even called Abigail and told her about it as well. They were all concerned about how Caleb came about it. It seemed too much of a coincidence that he just came across it at a sale. Someone wanted him to have it, to use it against them. Caleb didn’t even know what it was, what kind of power it held. But they did. Their mother had been a witch, and even though Alaina was the only one born that possessed her mo

“Arianna, look at this!” Alaina yelled suddenly, making Arianna jump. “What? Oh my.” Arianna said looking at Alaina’s computer screen. Alaina had managed to track down her mother’s friends last living relative. She couldn’t believe it. It was Caleb. “So, Caleb is Hannah’s so many greats grandson.” Arianna said. “Looks that way.” Alaina said. “I wonder if he knows.” “I don’t know. For a split second after that amulet knocked you on your ass, surprised crossed his face. I don’t think he knew what kind of power it held.” Arianna said to her. “I wonder if the power came from the amulet, or if it came from him.” “Could be a little of both. The amulet could have magnified his own powers, powers that look like they are just starting to manifest themselves.” Arianna said. “Have you found anything out about that amulet yet?” Alaina asked. “No, not yet. But now that I know that Caleb is from Hannah’s line, I have a better place to look.” “Ok, keep looking. I’m going to go to Caleb’s an
