"Do I leave my hair up or down?" Sarah asks herself, trying both styles while looking in the mirror.She's dressed and set for Katrina's place. She dressed in one of the gowns that were in her closet so the women don't feel more intimidated than they already do. A knock on the door has her looking in that direction. "Come in."She sighs, it's Jason. He closes the door behind him and doesn't move further into the room."You didn't wait for me so we'd have dinner together last night, and you had your breakfast brought up to you this morning. Are you avoiding me?" he asks disbelievingly.At least he got the hint."Since you noticed that, why are you here?" she answers.He moves further into the room. "You really are avoiding me? What brought that on?" She stands up and goes to check out herself in the full-length mirror one last time. She'd picked a knee-length floral gown that cinched at the waist, with long sleeves.Winter had passed quickly, the weather was cooler now so she didn't
Sensing his tone, Sarah quickly reassures him, “it’s nothing serious, I promise. I just want to get some books and maybe movies. It would be cool if I had my phone here with me, it’s just so boring and lonely here and now, I can’t even go out when I want to, it’s kind of…tiring?” she ends her explanation with a question.Jason is quiet for a while, Sarah takes a step forward closing the gap between them. She places her hand on his arm lightly, “Jace?” she prompts.“You prefer it over there than you do here, don’t you?” he finally asks.It’s Sarah’s turn to be quiet, then she starts to explain quietly. “Do I miss my world? Don’t make that face,” she says when he starts to scowl again, “no matter what you say, it’s where I grew up, it’s the world I knew. It’s my world.” She stops and doesn’t continue until he finally nods to show that he understands her.“So, I do miss being there, but I’d pick this world over it anytime. It’s really beautiful here for one and, I have friends here. I c
She turns wide eyes to her audience, "oh my God!" she repeats.With her hands over her mouth, Sarah moves to the mirror slowly. She points to the mirror and turns to the other women, "look at me, I look so beautiful!" she cries."I know right?" Hadiza says moving to join her in front of the mirror. "You are a natural beauty already, the makeup is not heavy so it just accentuates your features, I didn't even have to add extra lashes to your lashes because you have full and long lashes already."Sarah addresses Hadiza's reflection in the mirror. "Where I come from, anyone who can do a job half as good as this would make a lot of money, especially if they're working for celebrities," she tells her."Celebrities?" Katrina asks, coming to stand on Sarah's other side.Sarah nods, "you guys don't have them here," she says. "On a second thought, with the present circumstances I could be referred to as a celebrity so I think it's only right that I pay you for your service," she says to Hadiza.
She looks into his eyes, he means every word he said, she nods her head."Good. Now, we already established the fact that we don't know where tonight is going to lead us, but I would still love for you to enjoy the party. Whether or not we get Sheila tonight, the party is yours so you should own it, okay?" Jason says."Okay, my king. But promise me one thing," she requests."What's that?""You'll keep yourself safe, at all cost.""Not if it means you'd be at risk," he counters."So you had better ensure you keep us both safe, I can't be here...in this world, or any other without you.""I promise."She turns to Lukas, "that goes for you too. I don't want to lose anyone tonight," she tells him.He smiles at her. "Your wish is my command. You look beautiful, by the way, just like a darling, I didn't tell you that yet."She blushes a bit, "thank you.""Fuck off! She's my girl so I'm the only one that has the rights to compliment her. And for the last time, she's not your darling," Jason g
Sheila "She's alive" Sheila says to the figure in front of her as she stares into her crystal ball. "Why haven't we found her then? It's been years" the figure says. The figure has a veil covering his face and a cloak. "That would be because she's not here in our world. She's in the firstworld." "What happens next then?" "We bring her here" Sheila says with her evil smile. The third person in the room who is lying chained, on an old bed shakes and the chains rattle as she tries yet again to get up. "I love how you keep trying even when you know you're on your deathbed" Sheila says to the her. "We've got a Witch to capture" she says to the covered figure as she rises and moves towards him. He wraps his cloak around them and they disappear. SARAH Sarah wipes down the table in front of her, her senses on high alert. She can hear the clatter of dishes in the kitchen, the hum of the air conditioning, and the faint rustle of leaves outside the window. The smells of coffee and
Her heart pounded in her chest as she sprinted down the dark alleyway. The sound of footsteps echoed behind her, growing closer with each passing moment. She knew that the group of men chasing her were getting nearer, she could sense their anger and agitation. Sweat beaded on her forehead and her breathing became ragged as she pushed herself to run faster, dodging around trash cans and ducking under low-hanging pipes. She had to keep moving, had to find a way out. With a burst of energy, Sarah leapt over a fallen street light pole and stumbled as she landed on the other side. She caught herself just in time, but the rough brick wall at her back told her that she was trapped. She was cornered, with nowhere to go. The men approached, they were not even fazed by all that running, they've been running for fifteen fucking minutes. "Who are you and what do you want from me?", she asked them. "Who we are shouldn't matter to you", the guy who she presumed to be the leader started,
"So you're saying you're not human," Sarah asks the guys standing in front of her.No, we're not", they chorus."_and you're not even just not humans, you're werewolves", she goes on."What am I again?""A witch", Jason says"The Witch Supreme", Lucas says at the same time."So, my abilities are not because I'm cursed but because I'm a witch?""You got that right", Jason says with a nod."What did I miss?""There are evil people who are after you and seek your power", Lucas says."Oh right! And I'm supposed to go with you to the otherworld so I don't get hurt by them?""Exactly, baby girl", Jason says. She doesn't bother correcting him, there were too many issues on ground.Sarah couldn't contain herself, she burst into laughter with tears streaming down her face."None of this is funny", Jonas says."Exactly, which is the reason why I have to laugh cause the other option is go crazy!", she retorts."I'm 25 years old and hearing shit about myself I've never imagined. I've always thoug
Jason is pacing when she gets into the room, immediately she steps out, he's on her."Are you okay?", he asks, turning her and looking her all over."What happened to you? I swear if they touched a hair on your body they_""I'm fine Jace", she interrupts."Can I take a moment to sit? I'm kinda tired".He takes her arm and leads her to the sofa. She notices the room then.Dammn! She has never been in The Royal. It is the most expensive hotel in all of New York.Celebrities stay there all the time.She could totally see what the fuss was all about. The chandelier alone could probably buy her entire wardrobe.She could see a blurry view of the city from the floor to ceiling windows and she really itches to go check it out."Baby girl we need to know what happened with you" Jason started, "I knew you were shocked by all that happened the other day but I thought you'd be wise enough to know better and come to us sooner" he ended and she could hear the annoyance in his voice."Jace, maybe y
