"Uh what's a crone?" I asked feeling a little embarrassed by my lack of knowledge in supernatural terms.
"It's the leader of witches. The highest title and most powerful witch alive" Seb answered staring at Helia. The old woman smiled and nodded to him.
"That is correct. My title gives me great power and knowledge." Helia told me.
"What does any of this have to do with me? How do I fit into this?" I needed to know what was going on here. Helia gave me a warm smile. Same one Verna uses. Wonder if it's a witch thing.
"My dear Analise you are very special. But to understand your place now you must first know how the story began." Helia reached into her pocket pulling out a small vile. A swirling metallic green liquid was inside. I watched curiously as she poured one single droplet onto the table. Upon impact it shimmered brightly as it swirled into a ball.
It looks cool but what is it?
<Theme : 1000 Years Ago..Ana PovThe skin on my body felt like it was being pressed with the weight of the world onto my bones. It was as if I was being suctioned through a straw. I tried to open my eyes but all around there was nothing but flashing colors. They zipped around me brightly as my body continued to tumble into an abyss.Time seemed to slow down along with my flailing limbs. Until I landed hard face down on a cold floor. The impact hurt like a bitch but I couldn’t move my body at all. What I could do was hear sounds, all around me; the shuffling of feet, murmuring voices and a loudly creaking door either opening or closing. Damn it, all I want right now is to open my eyes. Something tells me this place isn’t Helia’s kitchen.“Just relax little time traveler. The pain will subside gradually” a woman’s soft but firm voice glided down my ears. It wasn’t a voice I’d ever
A 1000 years ago 2 "Once the heart of wolves was destroyed it split the wolves. Those in wolf form at the breaking couldn't change back and those in human form could no longer sense their beast. The weres blamed the vampires and refused to help them fight again. Every creature began retreating into the portals causing chaos. This brings us to this day we are in now. This is the day we fell. Arc disobeyed his mother and was led into a trap where he was killed." Helia's eyes welled but no tears fell. For some reason the tears fell from my eyes. This is such a sad story and these people feel so close to me. Being here makes me feel like I'm home strangely enough "Come on Helia" The older woman said to young Helia. The little gi
Genesis"Go on," the man urged.I took another step forward.And suddenly he was gone. The doors shut behind me. I was completely and utterly alone.Facing them.Was I allowed to look directly at them? Was I supposed to speak? I had no idea what the protocol was, only that if I broke it, I wouldn't even feel pain before they sliced me up and tossed my parts back to where I'd come from.I held my head high and waited, all the while repeating the same mantra in my head. ”I'm nothing, I'm nothing. I'm everything.""Genesis." A smooth voice called my name. It was so beautiful on his lips I wanted to cry again, and I'd never thought myself an overly emotional person, one of the only things my mom had applauded me for.Slowly, I turned to the left. A man dressed in dark jeans and a white T-shirt stood from a silver throne. His hair was impossibly light, almost white, his eyes a glowing blue.He was smiling.It looked painful on h
GenesisCassius. The name burned on my lips though I hadn't spoken it out loud — was too afraid to. I knew the power behind his name, behind who he was.He was like a god to the immortals.And to me?Well, he was more than that. He could kill me with a simple snap of his fingers. He could make me see my worst nightmares by simply willing it to happen. But worst of all? He could own me. It was said that Dark Ones treated humans as pets, playthings — an amusement. But because Dark Ones had such heightened emotions, when they abandoned a human out of boredom or something else trivial, it killed the human.Instantly shattering their hearts in their chests.Once the Dark Ones were finished with you — you didn't survive it. No one could survive the emotional break that came when someone like Cassius left.It was emptiness.It was death.I needed to stay far, far away from him if I wanted to live.The only happy thought that occur
GenesisMy breath hitched in my chest as I stared at the strangers around me. What did that even mean? Life itself? I was nothing. Why would I be taught humility and self-hate my whole life only to be told by the very ones I was supposed to fear that I was life itself?"Jealousy," Ethan said softly, "quickly turns to envy. Envy is a dangerous thing because you end up wanting so desperately what you'd never been given in the first place. The greatest sin an immortal can commit is to laugh in the face of what we are… and want." His eyes were sad. "He wants you.""To kill me?" I whispered hoarsely."No." Ethan cupped my chin with his smooth fingers. "He wants to possess you, and believe me when I say you'll like every part of that possession — until he leaves you. Dark Ones always leave, and you'll die.""Maybe she's different," Stephanie said in a quiet voice."You'd be willing to sacrifice another?" Mason roared, slamming his fists onto the table.
GenesisThe door clicked shut, leaving me completely and utterly alone. I pulled the blanket up to my chin and gave another jolt when another guttural roar came from somewhere in the house.Ethan.The minute I thought his name, I reached to my neck to see if he'd bitten me like Mason. Nothing but smooth skin met my fingertips, though my entire body still felt frozen — as if Cassius had marked me with a frigid temperature or something. But that was crazy.In fact, the whole scenario was crazy.I'd left every belonging I'd had with my mother, thinking I'd probably see her after I met with the immortals — she hadn't given me reason to believe otherwise.I had no cell phone.No money.Absolutely no identification.And, up until this point, I'd thought I'd been chosen to work for some secret society that hated me — but needed me desperately.Instead, I'd been scared within an inch of my life.And bitten twice — or at least
GenesisIt was an hour later before any food was brought to me. I'd foolishly assumed it would be Ethan bringing food; instead, it was Alex.I breathed a sigh of relief when he came into the room, tray of food in hand, and offered a shy smile — without the noticeable waves of seduction. Apparently, he could turn it off and on."Actually…" He sat the tray down on the bed and took a seat in the nearby chair. "…now that you're his mate, I could try my damnedest to seduce you, and you wouldn't feel a thing.""Great," I croaked, reaching for a piece of toast."Mason cooked." Alex offered an apologetic yet radiant smile. "Word of warning, the man's been surviving on tree branches for the past twenty years, so if he's a little rusty in the kitchen, I apologize.""Tree branches?" The toast was a bit dry, but it satisfied the hunger. I kept chewing, waiting for Alex to elaborate. Maybe he'd give me the answers I needed.Alex propped his feet up on th
