THE PACK GETS A NEW ENEMY

JULIA'S POV(yeah,it's really me)..........

I couldn't stop thinking of the conversation we had with Sydney,maybe it would be better if she got married and start afresh with her life, besides she deserved someone who would love and care for her. Someone completely different from Axel, so asking Sydney to not get married and wait for Axel will only end up hurting her. We were all patiently awaiting the arrival of Jude,he hasn't come home since yesterday when he left with that stripper and I was starting to get very worried.

"Am home guys" Jude suddenly announced coming in with the same stripper of yesterday and he was even holding hands with her,what the hell!.

Cary stood up scowling "What is the meaning of this nonsense bro,do you think it's funny?".

Jude rose his brows confused "What in the world are you talking about?".

"We were all sick and worried about you all through last night till this morning because you did not come home meanwhile we weren't aware that while we were stressing yourself to find you, you busy having fun and now you come back home with the same stripper you left with yesterday".

Jude frowned "First of all,am not a child so there is no need for you guys to be worried about me and secondly,she is not a stripper, she.......is my fiancee".

I choked on the air "What.....what do you mean by fiancee?".

He kissed the stripper on her cheeks and released his hands from hers "Darling.... show them".

The stripper stretched forth her left hand and there it was,the diamond shaped ring was on her engagement finger, how was that even possible?.

Hunter shook his head in disbelief "But you just met her yesterday,how can she be your fiancee?".

Jude held her by the waist and I felt jealously creeping through me,it should be my waist he is holding and that engagement ring should be on my finger not hers Jude smiled cheerfully "I know Hunter, it might sound strange to you guys but it was love at first sight and since we were both in love with each other,I thought there was no need to delay anything and so I proposed".

Cary sat down and forced a smile "Okay then,aren't you gonna introduce us to her,if she's gonna become one of us then at least we should know one or two things about her,right?".

Jude nodded "Right". He faced the stripper "Darling,how about you tell them all about yourself and I will go get us some nice hot choco".

Sh kissed him "Of course honey".

Judge took an empty chair and placed it in front of all of us where the stripper sat and from there,she could see and address all of us,and then after kissing her, Jude left upstairs.

Cary expression suddenly changed as his forced smile disappeared and he frowned at the stripper "Okay lady play time's over, why are you really here?,what kind of charm did you cast on Jude and what do you tend to gain from bewitching my best friend?".

She gasped and put her left hands on her chest dramatically "I don't have a clue of what you are talking about Cary".

Cary smirked and leaned closer "Look sweetie,Jude is not here so there is no need to pretend okay and come to think of it,i did not tell you my name so how did you know?".

The stripper's innocent expression suddenly disappeared and she smiled devilishly "You are right Cary,there is no need pretending when Jude is no longer here, my name is Circe".

I snapped at her "That was not the question he asked you?"

"No that wasn't the question but I have to introduce myself or don't I Julia?, like I said before,my name is Circe and am the girl Jude is madly in love with".

Alia shook her head "Jude doesn't love you,he just met you,am pretty sure you did something to him,what did you do?".

"Okay then,Jude doesn't love me but thanks to my bond kiss,he is madly in love with me".

Sia's eyes widened "Did i just hear you say bond kiss?".

I stared at Sia "What is a bond kiss?".

She shook her head "i .... I don't know".

"What do you mean you don't know".

Circe stood up and sighed pacing around the room,her hands behind her back "Let me do the honours of explaining it to you Julia,your lovely Jude is under the spell of the bond kiss. What it means is that if you guys try to kill me,he will die. If you guys try to hurt me in any way or in any way attempt to throw me out of this house, then he dies too".

"I don't believe in that bullshit" I snapped then stood up and grabbed her by her hands "You are gonna leave this house right now and you are never gonna return".

She smirked "You are so stubborn and you don't take to warnings do you Julia?".

I chuckled lightly "You don't expect me to believe that made up story of yours,do you?".

"Just where the hell do you think you are taking her to Julia?" Jude suddenly asked coming downstairs holding a tray that contained two mugs of Choco.

"Am throwing her out of this house,what does it look like Jude....?".

Jude dropped the tray on the table and faced Axel "And you are letting her do that?".

Axel sighed "Am sorry Jude but she is a stranger and we don't know anything about her,she is also very dangerous and so for that, we just can't accept her".

"But you guys openly accepted Sydney".

"That was different and we made a mistake by doing so, a mistake we are not ready to repeat again" Axel explained.

I threw her out through the door and turned to face Sue "I leave the rest up to you darling". Sue nodded and cast a protection spell over the house,preventing that stripper from entering.

Suddenly Jude collapsed with his knees down,using the table to support himself.

"Jude,what's wrong?" Axel asked going to hold him by the shoulders.

"I...I don't.... I don't know" Jude answered breathing heavily.

Circe chuckled from outside "It's the bond kiss working it's magic,I hate to tell you but..... I told you so".

"Shut up" I snapped at her. Jude suddenly started gasping for breath and Axel,Hunter and Cary went to support him.

Circe smirked "You know, his gonna die if you don't let me in".

I faced her again "I thought I told you to shut up stripper".

"Ohh.....I'll make you suffer for that later Julia".

I rolled my eyes "You could try". Just then Jude started coughing.

"Sue lift the spell" Axel suddenly ordered.

"But Axel,she............. I began to explain but he held up his right palm to silence me and he faced Sue.

"I said.....lift the spell" he ordered her more loudly this time and Sue lifted the protection spell giving Circe a free chance to come inside.

Circe entered the house smiling triumphantly "in the future,I advise that you guys should never repeat this mistake again and always learn to believe whatever I say".

"Please you have to help him" Hunter pleaded.

She walked up to Jude who was still on his knees and was still breathing heavily and she helped him up. "Darling,this people you call your family are after your death".

"What's... What's... What's wrong with....with...me?"

"There's no need to be panicked hon,its nothing Circe can't fix".

She Kissed him and at that moment,I felt like going over there and ripping her head off her shoulders but I couldn't do that because if I did,then I was definitely gonna lose Jude. When she stopped kissing him,Jude surprisedly looked fine,he was no longer breathing heavily. He looked at us strangely like he was wondering why the atmosphere was so tense.

"What happened,why are all of you looking at me like that?".

"How do you mean,how are we staring at you?".

"Like I almost died". Did he not really remember what just happened?.

Circe put her arms in his "Its nothing sweetie,we were just about to retire to our room".

He smiled at her "Yeah" then he faced the rest of us "Goodnight guys".

Circe gave us a fake smile,a smile only Jude couldn't see through "Goodnight" and they left.

Circe was right,Jude was really under a death spell.
