Year June 2020
Place : London UK
It’s morning, 7 am. Since it’s summer the sun is already up. Chloe and Devina are in the kitchen preparing coffee and breakfast. They have just put the scrambled eggs on the plate when they heard Sophie’s voice.
“Good Morning Mom and Devina. Hope you have a good sleep.”
“Good morning dear” both Chloe and Devina greeted Sophie in unison
“Sophie baby. I have made your favorite breakfast today. Scrambled egg, toast, and Milk” Chloe said putting the plate on the breakfast counter.
“Wow, Mom. You are the best” Says Sophie kissing her mom Chloe on the cheeks.
All of them were laughing and smiling when Alice entered the kitchen.
“Sorry, all. I am a bit late.”
Devina looked at the clock on the wall and says “You are 5 minutes late.”
Alice looked at Devina and Chole apologetically and says “I am really sorry. The laundry load was a bit more and the floors were quite dirty so I have to mop it twice.”
Chloe looked at Alice and shouted “How dare you to back answer us? Never mind. You are not getting a lunch allowance today. There is some cereal from yesterday. You can eat it before I change my mind.”
“Ok. I am sorry.” Alice said with her head down and headed to another side of the kitchen to grab cereal.
As all of them were in the kitchen, Devina spotted a frog on the kitchen window. Chole was busy scolding Alice, Devina quickly grabbed the frog and put it into her apron’s pocket.
Chloe packed Sophie’s lunch and was putting it in her school bag when Sandra entered the kitchen. Sophie looked at Sandra and greeted her “Good Morning Grand Ma. It’s a beautiful day. Isn’t it.”
Sandra smiled at Sophie and greeted her back. Sandra then looked at Alice who was eating cereal quietly at the corner of the kitchen. Sandra goes near Alice and greets her morning. Alice smiles and greets her back. Sandra asked Alice “Morning Alice dear. Hope you have a good sleep. And all chores are done?” “yup GrandMa,” Alice says nervously.
Sandra gives her an evil grin and says "Good"
Sandra escapes everyone’s gaze and slipped a candy bar into Alice’s uniform pocket. She whispers to Alice “This is our secret.” And smiles.
Devina and Chloe look at Alice angrily. Devina speaks "Mom the girls are getting late for school.”
Both the girls look at the clock and quickly leaves for school- Sophie in her car with chauffer and Alice on her scooter.
As soon as the girls left for school Devina looked at Sandra and says “I don’t understand Mom why are you so kind to Alice?” within the blink of seconds Sandra pushes Devina with her power and Devina hit the kitchen breakfast counter, the frog jumps out of Devina’s pocket and goes out of the window.
Sandra looked at Devina angrily and says “How many times I have to tell you to mend your witchy ways? We have to behave like humans.”
Devina says in low voice “But no one saw that.”
“Really? I saw it” Sandra says looked at Devina.
Chloe who was quiet till now spoke “How does it matter. It is us in this house. Our husbands are away on business trip.”
Sandra turns to Chloe and puts her hands on her waist as she spoke "Really? What about Alice and Sophie? Did you all forget Alice is a magical girl?"
Chloe being a bit unconvinced answered "Really Mom? We have not seen Alice doing any sort of extraordinary magic except she changes weather as we checked last."
Sandra looks at Chloe and says angrily "Alice is not 17 yet. Fate told she will possess her power with time."
"what if she doesn’t have any?" Devina asked
"Devina is right. Alice might not possess any special power. Also, she is a girl. The fate sisters mentioned that the heir of the Celestial kingdom will change the destiny. Alice is just an ordinary useless girl." Chloe said supporting Devina's statement
Sandra grabbed both her daughter in laws neck in each of her hands and says “She is the princess of the celestial kingdom. She has hidden powers. This is my last warning to you both to mend your witchy ways. Did you forget who we are? We are witches. Before I introduce you to the wealthy husband of mine you were just foolish witches.”
Chloe and Devina apologize and says “We know Sandra. We are sorry.”
Sandra leaves their neck and then says “ Remember what happened 15 years back. I have to leave the Emerald kingdom and come into this human world. I have to cast spell on Derrick and get married to him to survive in this human world. I convinced Derrick that his wife is an alcoholic and thus gained custody of his sons Marc and Harry. I made both that stupid sons of his fall in love with you two and get married and you both are just useless. You haven’t done anything”
Both Devina and Chloe looked down. Sandra comes near Chloe and held her chin with her claws and says “ I told you to mate with the human husband of yours on full moon night but you never listened. The result is your daughter Sophie is just a normal human and not a witch like us.”
"But Sandra...It happened in the moment" Chloe said justifying herself
"We are not here to love or make the moment. We are here to gain mortality, power, and youth. Remember Alice is key for us in order to gain power and fulfill all our wishes. We need her for our benefit. I don't care how you treat her. I don't give a damn if she is doing all chores of the house but make sure don't do anything stupid that will make her run away from us."
Both Chloe and Devina said yes in unison.
I am walking down the path amidst the rose suppressing my feelings. to others, I may appear as a determined individual but only my heart knows I am LOST.
Hampstead ,UK Ethan is listening to his favorite music while sitting in the park. The music is divine to his ears. This music mesmerizes him and soothes him. He looked at his watch and sees the time. It is around 7 am. The sun has risen and If he stays a bit longer in sun he will have a headache again. He doesn’t understand why he has this medical condition of getting a headache from sunlight. He has complained about this to his Mom many times but every time his mom says he is too delicate and he gets sunstroke. Ethan stood up from the bench and started heading towards his house.

As Ethan entered the house, he went into the kitchen and saw his Mom Clara pouring the divine juice for him. “Good Morning Mom,” Says E
Hampstead ,UK Clara reached the hospital around 8 am. She is working as a nurse at this hospital. After Clara left the palace she has changed many cities and has survived various jobs till she found a nursing career. Nursing was best for her as she could borrow or have access to the blood bank from where she managed to get blood for Ethan. Since Ethan is not a fully turned vampire his thirst for blood is less.

Chloe is resting in her room after applying a face mask sheet on her face. Devina came running into Chloe's room shouting Chole’s name “Chloe, Chloe…Where are you?” Chloe still with her eyes closed asked “What happened Devina? Why are you shouting at top of your voice.?” "I finally achieved to cast the spell for coloring the hairs. Now we do not have to dye our hairs manually every now and then to hide their actual green color.” Devina announced excitedly Hearing this Chloe opened her eyes and cried with happiness “ Are you serious? That’s amazing. I want to dye my hair tomorrow since the dye color is starting to fade off. Can you please cast the spell on my hairs.?” Devina’s thought: I actually wanted to test the spell a
Alice came home with the clean laundry bags and started putting clothes in their respective closets. She suddenly felt someone is standing behind her. As she turned around she got shocked. Sandra is standing with an evil smile on her face. "Hello, Alice dear. How have you been?" "I am good grandma. Did you need anything?" "Oh don’t be silly. Can’t I talk to my favorite child in the house without any reason?" Sandra always tried to be sweet with Alice when she wants to know what is going on with Alice. Sandra has manipulated Alice stating that Alice is her grandchild. Sandra has made up a story of Alice’s mother been dead when Alice was born. Alice was a baby to understand the manipulations of Sandra but with time Alice has started to notice the difference in behavior towards her and towards Sophie. Alice has once asked Sandra about her mother's photo but Sandra has manipulated Alice emotionally stating she cannot bear to keep Alice’s mom's things as h
Ethan and Clara have arrived in London. After taking out the last packer box from the truck to the cozy little cottage Clara sat on the couch. "Mom you seem tired. Lemme arrange everything in the house." Ethan suggested "Thanks, Ethan. You are always a great help with moving and arranging things." "What can I say. I have become an expert on this now. Thanks to your moving habit." Ethan commented "I am sorry dear. I promise this is the last time we have moved. I will try this time not to leave my job." "Whatever. Lemme unpack and arrange the stuffs." "How long are you going to be mad at me?" Clara asked trying to cheer up Ethan "Till I am sure we are not moving again." "Ethan…" "That’s fine Mom. I don’t need an explanation." Clara sighs and then said “ I will go out and get some grocery” "But Mom you are tired. Lemme get the grocery from the store.” "It is not evening yet Ethan. you
Ethan started looking out for the online job. He came across an opening for a virtual assistant for a pizza outlet where users who messed up their order and want to rectify it can chat and get the order rectified. Ethan applied for it and got selected. The money was pretty good. Ethan was quite happy that he will be able to help his Mom with finances and moreover if his Mom tries to leave her job again he can convince Mom to not change city since he is earning too now. Meanwhile at Sandra’s home, the doorbell ring. Alice opened the door nervously and saw three ladies in white gowns standing in front of her. "Hey child, Is this Sandra’s residence?” Fate sisters asked in unison Sandra came from the stairs towards the door with her cat in her lap and greeted the fate sisters “Hey Clotho, Atropos, and Lahkesis, I was waiting for you. Alice, can you please take their bags to the guest rooms?’ "Sure grandma." Saying so Alice took the bags of Fate sisters to
Within 30 minutes the pizza ordered arrived. All 3 fate sisters and Sandra are sitting in the guest dining room. All sisters were enjoying the meal and Sandra was giving them an angry look. "This pizza is delicious," Clotho said enjoying every bite. "This is the first time you are eating pizza. So how you can compare it with any other pizza?" Atropos asked her "No. This pizza is really special." Clotho said studying every detail of the pizza topping Meanwhile, Alice is in the garden watering plants. Suddenly she saw a butterfly sitting on a flower. She came near the butterfly and said “ Hey butterfly. How are you? I can see you are alone here like me. I wish I could bring more butterflies to accompany you.” Saying so Alice gazed at the butterfly and saw that butterfly wings were a bit wet from the water. She looked at the butterfly and said “ I am so sorry butterfly. Because of the water can your wings got wet. Let me help you drying your wings.” Sayi
Both the Fate sisters looked at the ruby ring carefully. Lahkesis said, "We need Clotho to check the ownership of the ring?". Sandra asked 'What do you mean? what are you going to do?" Atropos replied "We will try to see if this ring belongs to Alice. For this, we need to perform a ritual and the ritual needs to be performed by all 3 of us. We need Clotho." Sandra looked at both fate sisters angrily and says "I don't care if it belongs to Alice or not. I want her powers." Atropos says "You are not thinking straight witch, If this ring doesn't belong to Alice that means the celestial kingdom heir is someone else who is still a danger." Sandra looked at them and thought This could have been easily done by me via a spell if that stupid queen didn't curse me. Sandra remembered the queen's last word before dying "Sandra you shall pay the price of destroying my world. You will no longer be a powerful witch. All your spell and potion will not work on my c
