'Aunt Valerie has arrived' Raymond announced and soon a woman with long wavy hair appeared at Cian's room door. The first thing she did when she stepped into the room was to pull Cian into a hug, she hugged him like her life depends on it. 'I'm sorry' Cian cried, Valerie pulled out of the hug and tilted her head to see Cian's face, 'Why are you apologizing, you did nothing wrong, nothing was your fault' Valerie stated cupping Cian's face with her palm, using her thumb to wipe out his tears. 'Dress up and come down for breakfast, you need to eat something' Valerie said, pushing everyone out and closing the door behind her. They ate breakfast in silence, an irritable silence, 'I'm sorry' Cian said when Valerie dropped her fork, letting it fall on the plate making a clanging sound. 'I'm not angry at you, I'm just frustrated, is this how you guys have breakfast or you not on speaking terms?' Valerie asked folding her arms over her chest while glaring at them.'It's not always like th
'Why?' Cian asked drawing Asher out of his trance, 'Be-because Sean is going to contact Arnold and maybe you can get a new one' Asher said as he awkwardly let go of Cian and went back to the dinning.'Sean, contact Arnold, Cian can't find the bangles' Asher said.'The last I heard, Arnold doesn't use a phone' Raymond reminded'There ought to be a way to contact him' Asher said bitting his lower lip'There is, write down your message on a paper' Ordered Sean. Asher did as he was told, Sean crumbled the paper between his palm, closed his eyes and chanted a short spell. The paper burnt and disappeared.'He will be here anytime from now regarding how urgent your information is' Sean said. A portal opened in front of the mansion and there was a knock on the entrance door, Asher was about to get the door and the door suddenly opened. He looked at everyone on the table and they all shrugged their shoulders showing that it wasn't them. His eyes met Cian whose attention was towards the door.
'His name is...' 'Wait, do you heat that?' Asher interrupted'Hear what?' Cian asked 'A roar, a lion roar' Raymond said'The beast, it's back' Clint said in terror'This time, it's not in school, is it near here?' Cian asked not hearing the beast roar'No, it's still far away, in the woods' Sean answered.'You kids, stay here, I'm going to face it, alone' Arnold said putting more stress as he said "alone", he stood up from the couch and headed for the door. 'How will you track it down when you can't hear it?' Raymond asked making Arnold turn back to them'I'm aren't called a sorcerer for noticing' Arnold said bringing out a fold paper from his satchel that hung over one of his shoulder. He walked to the dinning table and unfolded the paper, it was a map.'Location spell' Valerie asked and he nodded. Arnold brought out a dagger from his satchel, he cut his palm with the knife, squeezed out the blood on the map. Placing his hand over the map, he chanted a spell causing the blood to
Dinner was lively and fun, filled with laughter, even from Sean. It was surprising for Valerie since it was the first she saw Sean make a facial expression in a long time. Valerie had decided to leave after making dinner but the boys persuaded her to stay for dinner with them, she couldn't resist Raymond's puppy eyes. She happy to see her son lower the walls he had built around him and let people in, by people meaning his childhood friends. Valerie left after dinner and everyone retired to their bedroom, as usual Asher followed Cian into his room. It was a bit awkward for the first time between them. Asher was nervous of how Cian would treat him now that he remembers everything. 'Do you want me to move to my room or....' Asher voice trailed off'I never said you should leave beside I doubt your room is clean' Cian said, lightening up the awkwardness between them. 'I don't sleep there, it's lonely' Asher said 'Coming from a loner' Cian chuckled. There was a knock on the door, 'Cian
They toured the house, the dinning table was litter with both old and broken plated. Cian went to his old room, it was how he remembered it but some properties were burnt, the white mattress was filled with dust and was burnt in some areas. In the huddle of the white mattress, he saw something that brought smile to his face, Ha-ha. Ha-ha was a plastic dinosaur, it's tail was burnt during the fire, adding black to it's green color, Asher came into the room. The room holds many memories of the days Asher spent with Cian when Cian was sick, visiting this room brought back many memories he had forgotten, this was the room in this house Asher was always happy to enter. 'Asher do you remember Ha-ha?' Cian asked stopping Asher's train of thoughts 'Hmm' Asher answered, smiling at the remembrance of Ha-ha. 'You used to hid it from me so I could take my shots' 'You loved Ha-ha that you would do anything to have it back beside it also helped Walter' Asher said glaring at Ha-ha 'But it wa
'...East, West, North and South are the four main regions...' Professor Craig, the Geography Professor explained. Cian was buried deep in his thoughts, he couldn't shake off the feeling that the Elite might be somewhere watching their every move and waiting patiently for an opening to attack again. Cian didn't feel the need to listen in geography class since Sean had given him the basic explanation.The four main regions are occupied by supernaturals but the most populated supernatural were the vampires, werewolves and witches. The werewolves have always been territorial but they became more accommodative due to the evolution. Each regions have academies, unlike Werwiva Academy, there are separate academies for the three major races while the other minor races like elf and fairies are advised to attend a diverse academy like Werwiva Academy. Diverse academies are the most expensive academies in the supernatural world. Whereas, underprivileged minor races who couldn't afford these aca
Asher had gone to meet up with Cian so they could head for lunch together but on reaching Cian's class, Cian was nowhere near there. He followed Cian's scent that led him to a familiar direction, it was the same direction he followed when he was searching for Cian after after he ditched the begining of semester part with Tyler. From a reasonable distance he saw Cian sitting down with someone, with a closer look it was Tyler. He felt his skin prickle, 'Then you are what?' he heard Cian ask Tyler, he could hear their conversations thanks to his hyper-hearing. He was about vamping to them before he felt a set of cold long fingers wrapped around his wrist holding him back, the fingers were chilling cold, only vampires felt that cold. He turned to see who it was, Sean, the most temperate one, shaking his head, disregarding Asher from going towards them. Asher noticed their conversation stop, turning back to them, he and Tyler's eyes met for a moment, he felt the rage building up insid
The evening breeze was cool since it was almost winter, Jessica stepped out of the mansion and was greeted by the cold breeze. She had planned this party as part of the plan for their mission success. She came up with the fake birthday party, she could grant the mission success and increase her popularity at the same time, killing two birds with one stone. Shannon was ready to opt out of the mission if they didn't assure Karin's safety. Trevor loves to party, he planned to attend the party for the fun but he was turned off when Jessica informed that the birthday party was a jazz party. Jessica favorite music are jazz and classics, even if it was a fake birthday party, it got to be all about her. Nadia was to stay back to save energy for next part of the plan or well, that's what Jessica thought. Jessica had leaked out information about the party been a jazz party, she wasn't expecting to see people but want to miss a high class party. Jessica and Shannon arrived at the venue, Spark
Cian was going through some old shit in Clint's room, he brought out two old boxes that laid in the closet. On top of each of them was his and brother's name boldly written. He opened the one belonging to him, it was full of some old toys and some pictures that consisted of him, his brother and parents, some had his friends in it. He found a picture that showed him laying his head on Asher's lap and Asher had his fingers tugging on his hair. At the bottom of the box was a crystal globe, he fancied it and kept it in his room, on his study table. On the night of the bonfire, before the arrival of Karin and the rest, the crystal globe glowed and Cian saw a young face, a girl. She had sky blue eyes and blonde hair, 'Unicorn tears' she in amusement before she stood up and left.==============The young blonde girl left the crying young unicorn and ran to an old castle which was close by. She has spent her whole life calling this home. Her parents werr in the garden, they seemed to be in
Chapter 51: His Prophesy Jessica traced Nadia's mother in the human world with the help of one of their coven elders. She told her the changes in Nadia and how it affects their plan and she promised to do something about it. Yetunde, Nadia's mother went to her altar and chanted a spell continuously, it made her have control of her creation, not her daughter but the beast she created inside her daughter. When Nadia was eight, in she began an experimental soccerey on her, destroying her childhood and replacing it with pain, screams and truama.'I can't swim, I was taught how to' Nadia answered to Cian question if she could swim.'Even during your childhood?' Cian said and made a light wave with his feet. 'No, I had to help my mother' Nadia said pushing out the painful memories of her childhood, the way she screamed as a result of what her mother made her eat and drink. 'Beware of Jessica she said from nowhere brewing some mix feelings in Cian. 'Take it and kill me, you don't deserve
Chapter 50: Who truly is Nadia II'Human blood'?' Clint said in shock and Asher nodded which made the horror in Clint's eyes deepen. They were in the headmaster office, it was the safest place Raymond could think of, Asher and Sean reported to the office to explain the situation while Karin took Astra to the school hosiptal. Asher showed them his hand that t was still covered in blood. Arnold was also in the office, he magically remove every single drop of the blood on Asher's hand and moved them to a glass cup which was in front of Sebastian, he had previously drank blood with it. 'It's really human blood' Sebastian said after taking a sip. 'That's saying the beast is human' Cian said 'Definitely a witch' Asher stated'There wasn't any breakin ?' Sebastian said 'Then we have an internal enemy' Clint added and sighed 'What spell has such effect?' Sean asked 'Beast Manifestation' A voice answered. They all turned to the direction of the voice, it was the same elegant looking man
'Read up on edible herbs concoction, we'll be using he portion lab for our next class, I hope you all know the location, have a nice day' Professor Sullivan said and left the class. He taught Healing portion classes, the class which was derived from Portion Class and was optional. Only Cian and Sean among the School Kings took this class. Clint and Raymond opt out from any optional class with the excuse that it was too much work but they were still among the top 10 in the Academy. Sean rank top one in the Academy, Asher doesn't care about grade or even bother to study but Top 8 has always been his place. They seem like the perfect students that every parent would wish they had but they still felt haunted, felt like their present happiness is for a limited time. 'Cian' Nadia called and followed behind Cian who left the classroom and was about heading to the buffet hall for lunch. Cian felt someone behind him and turned, 'It's you Nadia, you should said something' Cian said with a fr
'Can someone tell me why the hell an emergency meeting was called by this time of the night' Kayla, queen of Brideless Coven said in frustration. Aoife, Karin's mother who is also Dale's wife stood in front of the nine members of the Elite, Meryl was absent because she needed to present for the mermaids metamorphosis ceremony in the ocean. The Elite sat in form of a semi circle in front of Aoife, she examined their faces, they looked annoyed, frustrated, angry, ready to kill her if her information isn't valuable. She recalled her conversation with her husband.********'Sweetheart, you got any news about the new generation?' Dale said as he climbed into the bed. 'No progress but Karin and Shannon made progress' Aoife answered'How so?' 'Shannon helped in bringing one of the twins memories back and Karin has found someone that leads to the fulfillment of his Prophesy' She explained'The prophesy sounds like a folktale, Do you believe it' Dale asked his wife 'It doesn't matter if it'
The glass Asher was holding shattered the same way his heart shattered, other students turned to him even the Hogwarts students looked down. 'Are you alright' Cian asked worriedly'Yeah, I'm alright, I just felt light-headed for a moment' Asher lied. He saw Tyler on a table across theirs, their eyes met for a while before Tyler turned to Cian and smiled at him, Cian returned the gesture making Asher more furious than he presently was. He clenched his fist that was bleeding from the shards of glass that torn his palm. 'Asher' Someone called but his mind was too occupied until he felt a light tap on his shoulder. Everyone on the table turn to Fergus who was standing behind Asher with his hand resting on his shoulder, at the same time Cian noticed Asher unclenching his fist revealing his blood. 'Hi' Fergus said quietly, he was previously sitting behind their table, ignoring their conversations until the glass shattered. He has been watching Asher's reactions whenever Cian was close by
'Cian!' the heard a familiar female voice call, they turned to the direction of The voice, it will still in a distance from them bet their voices were damn loud. 'Cian!' he had the same familiar female voice call his name, he squirted his eyes to see the two familiar girls wearing black coats and a yellow and maroon scarf wrapped around their necks, Juliet and Anna? Juliet and Anna stop running because it was too slow they decided to fly instead 'who are they?' Kyle said, having no clue who were the girls that are presently standing in front of them.'my annoying cousin, Juliet end the less cute one, Anna' Clint introduced, Juliet glared at him before turning to Sean wait an innocent smile on her face and Anna gave a cute wave before moving to Cian side, sticking to him like a glue.'I told you my friends are off limits' Clint shunned Juliet 'I never told you I did listen to your glimpsy rule' Juliet said to him and they started brickering.'are you sure she is after your friends
After Hellhound revealed itself for the first time when Astra was five, the nuns came to a conclusion that it was dangerous having her around other children, she was a danger to them but she was only a child. Astra was put in the foster system, moving from home to homes, good and bad ones. All she ever wanted was to feel accepted, she learnt how to smile to everyone even when they weren't comfortable having her around. Her smiles made foster parents accept her into their home but when she starts to grow attached, Hellhound finds a way to reveal itself and the next thing she knows, she is infront of another foster parents waiting to be accepted. On a normal day, Astra is a cheerful bubbling girl, she tried making friends but she was always left out. She smiled and consoled herself everytime she cried in the bathroom after school. She thought everything would change after a rich couple adopted her. The couple couldn't have a child anymore and they wanted their daughter to have a sibl
'I think that's the girl Headmaster Sebastian wants' Raymond said to Sean, they were in the empty room where Kyle laid still sleeping. 'He called her Astra' Sean said in agreement. 'She's the reason we are here, now we've found her we got to bring her with us' Raymond said'Let's take her right now and go home, it's been a long day and this humans keep getting on my nerves' 'We can't take her against her will, we don't know what she is or what she can do neither why headmaster Sebastian wanted her' Raymond tried to reason with Sean'Do whatever you want, my worries are on Kyle, he isn't waking up' Sean said, turning to Kyle, removing some strands of hair from his face. 'Stop being paranoid, he just sleeping beside it's night, I'm going to check on Karin and Astra' Raymond said, leaving the room and heading to the hospital cafeteria. The hospital cafeteria was almost empty since it was pass dinner. Raymond saw Karin and Astra sitting in a secluded spot but they still got stares f
