Memories of others
“I’m going to see if we can find out anything else, Willow; see if there is a story.” Her words are quiet. Willow simply nods and closes her eyes, hearing the women speak in tongues she doesn’t comprehend, yet for some reason today she feels the power behind the words they say even if the meaning isn’t understood.
An image flashes through her mind of her mother crying; holding Willow tight in her arms with her face a picture of torture and sadness. It is as if she has already lost Willow, despite having her right there. As soon as Willow begins to understand the image, it disappears and there are a few seconds of darkness before another image appears. Her eyes snap open, Camille smiling slightly at her.
“Not all the memories will be yours, Willow. Your parents put some images in your mind from their own memories so you would be able to unde

When they arrive back at home, it’s Alaric who takes the keys from Willow’s bag and unlocks the door. They walk into the house together, Alaric smiling at her gently.“I’ll get you some water, and then you need to relax for a while,” he says. “You can’t look this unhinged when you meet your sister.” He watches her as she takes a seat then goes to the kitchen, letting the water run cold before he uses it to fill a tall glass which he takes to Willow.“I must have looked so crazy and cruel,” Willow’s eyes flick up towards him as she gratefully takes the drink.“Don’t be silly, she will have understood. You just watched over an hour of memories that your parents gave to you. That sort of thing is never going to be easy. You need a break, so let tonight be a break. Be Olivia tonight, not Willow the witch. Just be human for a bit.”“How am I supposed to just forget things
Bound By Magic Or Fate? ( book one) Deadly Move
The night passes quickly as she walks from bar to bar and club to club with her sister and friends. After what seems like a hundred different places and twice as many drinks, her eyes glance to the clock. She wants to go home but telling Mel that will cause an argument and her sister will just insist she stays longer. It’s midnight; they’ve spent hours together. Willow glances around, Mel’s arm interlinked with hers.“I’m going to the toilet,” Willow lies, seeing an opportunity. Earlier on she had seen a back door next to the toilets, knowing she could go out that way just in case, and she can just text Mel later saying she’s gone home. Mel’s arm loosens from hers and Willow walks off. Getting to the toilets, she walks straight past the door, turns the corner and opens the back door onto a dark alleyway. She begins walking home, her body relaxing realising that she’ll soon be in her bed, warm and asleep.“Oliv

Alaric walks along the edge of the trees, facing the town, continually circling it. He can hear the faint hum of music and voices, his mind fixing on Willow’s so he can follow her and make sure she’s safe. It’s not that he doesn’t trust the others, but he couldn’t forgive himself if anything happened to her. He’d barely been able to for what had happened to Yasmine…Focus, Alaric. Focus. Hours pass by uneventfully as he hears her drinking and laughing, clearly drunk.“I’m going to the toilet,” He hears her say, his head shaking as he almost immediately figures out the intention behind her voice. Almost mockingly he stands waiting. Five minutes pass by and she still hasn’t spoken, but she’s probably just getting some air, right? She’s allowed to have a break if she needs it, clubs can be loud, and-“Olivia, honey,” he hears, and his ears prick up. Alaric glances up
Bound By Magic Or Fate? ( book one) Sharing The Vision
Alaric looks at her, unsure whether he should tell her. She sees his hesitation.“Either you can tell me, or I’ll ask Camille.”Alaric nods, taking a deep breath before he begins.“Yasmine was a powerful and amazing witch. This was before you were born, Willow. She was a Depraysie like you. The fact that we dated was frowned up; everyone warned me it would end in a war.”Willow nods, listening intently.“Anyway, a witch and werewolf falling in love isn’t good, especially not for vampires. They often use witches for their own gain so them being with a werewolf is dangerous to a vampire. Yasmine was turned; most witches lose their powers once they’re turned but she didn’t. She went to the witches to try to wipe them out.”“She-”“Just listen, Willow. Of course, the werewolves knew that I loved Yasmine. We couldn’t let her kill all the witches. Unfortunat
Bound By Magic Or Fate? ( book one) Belonging
She feels her body making the journey, almost trancelike, her mind elsewhere, and when she arrives at the graveyard Camille welcomes her with a smile.“It was always going to happen, Willow, witches don’t belong with werewolves. Do you want to come to the main house and meet some of the others?” She looks at Willow with a warm, open expression, waiting for an answer to her question. Willow glances behind her, feeling like she needs to run back to Alaric but resisting, her head nodding slowly as she begins to follow Camille to the house. Walking in through the huge, opposing front door, she sees a few people sitting around and talking, their words trailing into silence as they look at her with wonder.“Everyone, this is Willow. Willow, these are just a few of the local witches, there are more of us elsewhere, of course.&rd

There’s a light knock that prompts her to walk to the door, opening it to discover Azalea holding a map and a small bead.“So I’ve been instructed to find out where the teddy is that this bead belongs to,” she says as she walks into the room. Willow nods, watching as the young girl clears the table, placing the map down and the bead on the map. She looks at Willow, waiting.“Well, any suggestions?”Willow laughs.“I just tried it myself Azalea, I’m sorry but I don’t think I’ll be able to help you. I didn’t say anything; I just saw where the person was.” She kneels down next to Azalea feeling guilty; she promised she’d help. Seeing as she can’t do that, she can at least sit with her. Her eyes flutter closed b
Bound By Magic Or Fate? ( book one) Feeling Welcomed
Willow looks down at herself. She has to admit, the dress is impressive. It clings to her body like it was made for her, a deep blue fabric that reminds her of the ocean. The hem stops halfway down her thighs: not so high that it’s revealing, but high enough to tease. She has no doubts that she’ll enjoy tonight. It is the first night since she arrived here that she’s free from everyone watching her, asking her what she learnt today, or whether she can do this or that.Walking down the old, grand stairs she smiles, seeing Camille hurriedly putting something away in a drawer before leaning down to lock it with a sturdy key that hangs around her neck. Willow shoots her a curious look and the older woman shrugs.“It’s my personal stuff. I just don’t want anyone reading it, that’s all.”Willow nods wordlessly; she doesn’t feel comfortable enough to grab a glass of water here, let alone go snooping in drawers. Will

Stepping outside, she pulls her phone from her pocket and idly swipes around the screen while she waits.“You’re a fool.”Turning, she sees Camille with the other witches behind her.“It’s wrong, Willow, you and him together. It is wrong.”“Maybe it is, Camille, but I’ve already lived a lie for years, not knowing the truth. I won’t do it again.”“Is everything okay?” Alaric emerges from the door of the club and comes over, his arm wrapping around Willow, sensing her upset. He looks at Camille and the others, feeling Willow’s body tense up when images flash through her mind, pulling herself away from Alaric and marching up to Camille.“It wa
