"Ask me anything Pumpkin, I am ready to answer all of your questions." The fire in the fireplace sparkles against his red hair, I pull the warm blanket closely, staring at him intently. "Why did you leave... me?" My voice came out in whisper "My hands were tied Hermione; I didn't mean to. That was the only way." He says I scoff, furrowing my eyebrows "Tsk. That was the only way. How?" I ask He mildly caresses his temple "Pumpkin, please I need you to be patient. I will answer all your questions, okay?" "Okay." I murmur half-heartedly. He leans closer from the small table, ruffling my hair "Hey!" I protest, smiling anyways "Now back to your question" He clears his throat "... There is a realm called the Kard realm, and another called the Thgirb realm. Where we are is the Earth realm and where we come from is the Thgirb realm." I find myself sitting up, concentratedly. "The Kard realm is a replica of our realm; witches, warlocks, werewolves, Lycans, fairies, goblins, elves and all

"Okay fine, but before my lip will be zipped... Who told you, that you are this person's second chance mate?" He asks"Uhm, Grandmother." I fake a smile"My mother? And how did she know this? Is she suddenly the person who is to feeling the mate bond for you?" His forehead creases slightly"Nope. She just keeps telling me umpteenthly that I am his second chance mate!" I say with a sly smile"That is so rare Hermione, we had only seen that in books. Well, it doesn't mean it does not exist... It's just rare, and the parties involved feels the mate pull for each other. Since you say you don't feel anything for this person, then cancelled! Next please!" He humors much to my joy.My laughter echoes in the room, so hard that my stomach began to hurt "Alright. The first was Eros Anathos, and the second, I met in the royal ball...""Did you just say Anathos? Wow, Anathos and Kora's son have grown that much? ...Anathos was my best friend back then in high school." My dad says"Wow, just wow."

The house was overwhelmed with visitors; all who came to mourn with the Crofus family. I plop my buttocks at the top-tier of the staircase, also dressed in black as I stare at my dad who plasters a smiling face, welcoming all witches and warlocks who came from different region of the Thgirb realm.All I see is a man who just want to isolate himself and mourn his mother peacefully. But atlas, the coven’s ritual must be kept.Ketura got back last night from wherever she went, with her minions. They all were throwing tantrums, crying the loudest and rolling on the ground. I wondered if it were a show, or perhaps they bonded more than grandmother and I did when she was alive, as I sit here, completely numb.The whole crowd bows at the entry of The Anathos, Eros following closely behind his parents “Thank you clan, you all may continue with the celebration” Mr. Anathos declares.Dad’s eyes sought me out from the crowd, his gaze coming to rest on me on the staircase. He mouths “Are you okay

"I am so excited; we are at the last phase of Highschool. Yaaaayyy!" Athena squeals, dancing on the hallway. Ares and I burst into short laughs, rolling our eyes "Drama Queen." It has been a moon since grandmother's death and countless news of Glinda and Helios as mates in the kingdom. I heard also, that she had been crowned a princess and will be joining us in Showek's college despite her abrupt stop to schooling. Royal privileges. Duh. I am just happy, mateless, friend-ful and father-ful. A petite lady approaches us. I don't think I have seen her before in this school. "Greetings your majesties, sorry for intruding. But may I ask if she is Hermione Crofus?" The lady says We all stare at her with furrowed eyebrows "yeah ..." I answer uncertainly "My name is Miss Theresa, and I was assigned three moons ago by the school administration to be your examiner for all your assessment from first year." She says "And may I ask why you deem it fit to come now?" Ares asks "Exactly!" At

“This cannot be. There is nowhere in the heavens that guy is mates’ with my sister." Ares rants, pacing outside my room door. I stand numbly beside him. Athena and 'this stranger' are in my room, having a little mate bonding. Of course, with Dad's permission! "Where did he even come from? Who is he? What does he want here? Is he from this realm?" Ares hollers angrily, almost kicking down my room door. ...wait...that is it. "That is, it! You are such a genius Ares." I say happily, stunning him as I rush to go call Dad. "Dad." I call, on seeing him stand beside a shelf of books in the sitting room "Woah. When did this get here?" I ask "Some seconds ago? Are those two, okay?" He mutters, flipping through the pages of the book in his palm "By those two, you mean Athena and your replica? Well, they are okay. Last time I checked." I smile "My replica? How quickly have you given him a name" Dad closed the book, tilting his head "...I know you want to say something pumpkin, go on." "
