Chapter 16_ Catch A Bitterfly
Red flag flickered in Amethyst’s head, bringing her back to her senses like she had been poured a bucket of iced water. There was no escape route for her to take, and she could no longer hold her feet. She slammed on the rough ground of the alleyway as fear embraced her.
The drooling big dog appeared to be unsatisfied with its previous meal and was ready to pounce on the next one, which, unfortunately, might be her. It kept on advancing to where Amethyst was, sending her threat at every step. The predator cast the thing in its mouth aside: Amethyst’s eyes widened, seeing that it was indeed a bone—a human arm!
‘Rex, where are you? Please save me.’
Amethyst sobbed, despondently waiting for the animal to jump on and devour her. Low growls synched with her quivering squeamish heart as she closed her eyes, accepting her stupidity had led her to her demise.
‘Mom, I love you. But I hate the fact that me being a witch is useless in this situation

Gavin watched as Thea and Amethyst prepared the space for their butterfly inside Quin’s greenhouse. He was with Nicolai in the garden, enjoying their afternoon coffee on the gazebo while the girls design their pet’s new home.“Nic, have you slept with her?” Gavin asked without looking at Nicolai, who was sipping his mochaccino.Nicolai spitted an amount of coffee out of his mouth because of the out-of-the-blue question. He threw Gavin a piercing gaze, without answering him.“Come on,” he said, wiping the spat on his pants. “Do you even know how to drink properly? Don’t spill.”“You just asked me a stupid question. How do you think should I react?” he hissed, afraid to be heard even though they were several meters away from the girls who were merrily wiping dirt on their faces as they plant some non-flowery bush. “Of course, I haven’t, and I will never.”Gavin simper

Everyone in the Biology class was talking about how they built a sanctuary for the caterpillars, but two students didn’t mind the commotion at all. Amethyst’s eyes were restless. She kept on glancing at the open sliding door of their classroom, hoping to see Nicolai pass by. These past few days her mind had been occupied by the thoughts of him and their hot and cold relationship, though the real score between them was as vague as the murky waters in the fishpond at the back of their school canteen. Thea, on the other hand, was busy chatting with Gavin, giggling as they exchanged messages. ‘Rei’s neck is like a giraffe's. She’s been checking the door since we arrived.’ Thea sent the message to Gavin. Then her phone pinged, and she gasped at the message she received. ‘Nic is up to something. He bought some flowers and sweets,’ Gavin replied. ‘Do you think he’s going to confess now?’ ‘IDK. Till later.’

After a warm bath, Amethyst stepped out of the bathroom and changed into her pajamas. Rinari had left as soon as she dropped her off at the house, without even entering the gate. Her mind brought Amethyst back to how she got in the hospital for passing out again. But the weird thing was, there was no Nicolai when she opened her eyes, which was the usual scene she had. She furrowed her brows as if doing so could help her fill in the gaps of memories she had before unconsciousness hit her. “I remembered Steffani calling out to me. But why was she so mad?” She slammed her body in bed and stared at the ceiling with lights blinking from normal to a rainbow-colored one. Then it hit the nerve! She remembered seeing two tall men with her: the one who caught her when she dropped, and the one with the red eyes. ‘It’s been a while, little girl.’ Goosebumps crawled all over her body when the latter man’s handsome yet eerie voice e

“Tiffney!” Salazar sped like a lightning bolt towards Sabrina, covering her from his wife. “What the hell was that for?!” Sabrina held her cheek, which was still burning like hell, releasing some icicles from her palm to cool it. “I allowed her to do what she wants, and this is how she repays me?! I only ask her one thing: DO. NOT. TOUCH. AMETHYST!” “Why is she more important to you? I’m your daughter,” Sabrina cried in Salazar’s embrace. “I want her alive because she’s more powerful than you!” Tiffney vanished into thin air, and Salazar was left to console his daughter. He guided her to be seated on the couch. “I’m sorry, honey. Your mother is obsessed with being the most powerful, and Amethyst, being the last heir of the Hiwita clan, is her only hope to achieve her desire.” “Is that the reason you are always away?” “We’re having business with your uncle Braeden.” “It still involves Amethyst and Lefu,

Lefu grabbed his chest when sudden grief struck him. He screamed on top of his lungs when what felt like a dagger wounded him and carved out a portion of his heart, piercing him… leaving an invisible hole there. “Ahh! What’s happening?” He was alone in his room, finishing Amethyst’s portrait, but he couldn’t because he dropped to his knees and was crippled on the floor. His cry sent Braeden dashing to his room. “Hey, son.” Although his face was already white because of having no blood in his veins, he became whiter like the snow as he worried about Lefu. “My heart aches, literally. Amethyst! It must have something to do with her.” Braeden scanned his son’s body. His heart rate dropped and its beat was no longer normal until it stopped and Lefu fainted in his arms. As Braeden visualized Lefu’s body like an x-ray machine, he noticed tinges of green and yellow fluid flowing inside of him. Moments later, a white bat came in through

Ashanta stood in horror as many of her clan members got dragged out of their houses. Both men and women, along with their teen sons and daughters, were under the nefarious shape-shifters’ long, deadly fangs; their blood dripped and mixed with sticky saliva from their predators. Their body parts bore several holes where the teeth of the wolves sank.“Didn’t I tell you that you need our protection?” a gust of wind hissed in her ears. “Look at how those werewolves devour and slaughter your clan, showing no mercy.”Werewolves paid by humans to execute their clan attacked the Supremus Hiwita’s sanctuary on the thirteenth night of the month of November when the moon was in its full form. But the moon didn’t seem to beam at the misery her clan had been put into. The light it cast across the sky flickered like a lit candle whose flame danced with the blowing wind. Gloomy, not bright.“H

On the third night of Amethyst’s temporary death, everyone gathered in the guest room when Rinari had gained consciousness. Upon the extraction of her childhood memory, Lucia brought the needed orb for everyone to see. “Everyone ready?” Lucia asked. She placed the orbs inside a tube one by one, in order of events. Each transparent orb rolled down a tunnel and was projected into an image enhancer mirror so that all of them can watch the past like they were in a movie house. “Everyone, be keen on the events. Grandma Ashanta is known for hiding secret codes in everything she does. And guard yourself because even if it’s a memory, she still has the power to control your mind. Whatever happens, don’t look into her eyes,” Rinari warned. The twin sat side by side with their cousin, adoring her for having a close encounter with their grandma, who was the leader of the most powerful witch clan. “Being with grandma and seeing her in action must’ve been a privilege,” Herbena said, snaking her
Howls and Chants Chapter 1_Stalkers
Amethyst went out of the bathroom with only a towel covering her. Someone’s watching. She gripped the towel tightly to her body, like a mother clutching her precious baby. She couldn’t get wrong. Her sharp instinct screamed a warning siren in her head along with its red lights. Cold, minty air coming from the window kissed her bare skin. A frown and two lines formed on her glabella distorted her small, cute face. “I’m sure I closed it before getting in,” she muttered and walked towards the open window opposite the bathroom. She grabbed the other end of the sill to shut it. But even before she did so, a silhouette of a man hiding behind the rose bushes in their garden caught her attention. It dove into the thick, thorny shrubs to hide again. And a low grunt of pain followed. “Mom!” She screamed, but no voice came out. She reached for the window sash, yet her arm wobbled. Everything went from normal to dreamy. “What’s happening?” The m
