The next morning, I wake up groggy, the strange words from my mother's journal haunting my once peaceful dreams. My plan today is to find Ben and I’m going to do whatever it takes.

I get up and put the kettle on. I hear my moms voice in my head “ a strong day starts with a strong drink.” I was never going to forgive her.

I’m going to have to use a location crystal to find Ben. I don’t think we have any here, but the basement would be the best place to look.

I’m about to take my first sip o

  • Flames in my heart   Chapter 22

    I look around at the strange contraptions and torture tools all over the walls. There is a strange aura in this room; bad things have happened here. I can feel it. What the fuck is all this for? There is no way this has always been down here the whole time and I didn’t know. I wonder if Tyler even knew, there’s no way he could be in on this. “What is this place?” Ben said walking in behind me. “I’m not sure” I whispered looking at the wood table in the centre of the room, there are restraints in all four corners. Who were they torturing down here? I had to believe they were doing it for a good reason. I walk further into the room and see a row of red leather books all along the back wall on shelves. I rip a book from the shelf, flipping through the pages; every spell in here is black magic. I grab another book and another. They are all full of black magic, words of evil, each book darker and darker. I flip to a page that says “removing souls, the patient must endure mont

    “Let’s go inside, we have no idea what we are up against” Rod suggested. He’s right the house is safe, guarded by strong magical wards. The hunters were gone, but who knows if they would come back. I didn’t want to be out here defenceless if they did. The house is silent, no one else is here. “So what do we do now?” Ben asked. I look at Ben, I am still so mad that I might throw him into a wall. “You got my brother kidnapped” I screamed, “ I want you out of my house!”I can feel myself getting worked up again. “No it’s not my fault, I knew the hunter was coming here and tried to stop him” Ben defended, “he told me my next assignment was to find a witch who can control the wind, I knew right away that he was talking about Tyler. I came here to try and protect him. You were so mad at me I didn’t think you would listen so I didn’t ask for your help.”I looked at him and my heart broke for him. “Please you have to believe me” he begged. Something in his eyes made me belie

    “Please don’t hurt him” I begged as it begins to rain. “Hurt him? Who said anything about that. I am not a monster” he grinned. When I see his face I realize this is the same hunter that stole my blood from the underground prison. “You are a monster, you’re responsible for killing all those witches” I shouted. “Alright, maybe I am a monster, but lucky for you, we need him alive” the hunter said. Hunters kill witches to collect our powers. The more they kill the stronger they become. After all the recent deaths, I suspected this hunter was very powerful. “What do you want with him” Rod yelled. His voice is stern. “You are meddling in things you don’t understand, just leave now and no one has to die. I am taking him either way.”I wasn’t letting him take Tyler to that awful dungeon without a fight. I charge the hunter flames coming from my hands. “Oh aren’t you precious? “ he laughed at me, “why do you stupid witches always chose to fight? It’s exhausting and so time cons

    I call my brother; no answer, next my mother and father; same no answer. Why is it when you call for something important people never answer?“Where are we going?” Rod asked following me to my car. “To my house” I said, “it’s a long drive so we better leave now.”You would think by now witches would have a better way to get around. “Why would Ben look at your house for you if he knows you’re here?” he questioned me.“Because he’s not looking for me, he’s looking for my brother Tyler. He is the only witch I know who can control the wind” I said, “Ben probably found him through me.”Ben was smarter than I thought, or he has been watching me and my family for a long time. “Thank you for helping me” he said as I put the car in drive. “I’m not helping you. I’m not letting Ben hurt my brother. We need answers and it looks like working with you is my best chance at finding them” I told him. We sit in silence for a while and I finally say “That spell you mentioned about tele

I don’t think we have any here, but the basement would be the best place to look.I’m about to take my first sip of coffee when I hear a car door slam outside. It startles me and I nearly drop my coffee. Who could that be? I peek through the curtain. A tall figure is walking confidently up the path, his hair damp from the rain. How did he get through the crystals? He couldn’t be a hunter or he would have set off the traps. The fear of being locked in that cage rushes back. After everything that’s happened, I’m ready to attack. I open the door before he steps foot on the porch and I yell. “Who the h

  • Flames in my heart   Chapter 17

    I have never read anything like this before. It must be dark magic. “Taking a witches blood is how you separate their soul from their bodies. It is a process that takes months. The process involves..”I flip the page and the rest are blacked out with ink. Who would do this to the pages?Is that why Hope took my blood. Are they going to separate my soul from my body?The only person who would know is my mother, but then I would have to explain how I got the book and that involved getting Tyler in trouble.Whatever the hunter is up to is something that I have never heard of until now. I guess this secret runs deeper than I thought. I wonder how many more witches will die before we find out. My heart sinks for Hope, being forced to hurt innocent people. I better just go to bed. ***Later the next day, Tyler and I are sitting outside enjoying the sound of the waves crashing on the beach. I wasn’t sure if I would ever feel safe in the water again after what happened with Ben. “R
