After everything was done Clara went to look at herself in the mirror again. From the exquisite gown down to her hair style and jewelry, Clara thought she looked a noble woman from the eighties. Jewel came to stand next to her with a pair of silver heels. She crouched down and helped Clara wear it. Now that she was ready and didn't need a hand, Clara told jewel to leave and the lady bowed to her before exiting the room, leaving Clara alone by herself. Just then, the door opened from behind and Clara and Jewel turned to look in the direction. Nimue walked in looking all dressed up only that the woman was wearing the same color she had always worn. Seeing her in a gray ball gown made quite a difference, she looked younger with the hairstyle."I came to check if you are ready, everyone is waiting for you in the ballroom" Nimue said as she came to stand with Clara." Oh, dear. You are beautiful,clara. just like your mother was" Nimue smiled."Thank you" Clara sincerely. Nimue was one of t
Mira flew over to the wailing territory and perched on a tree branch. She could see banshees and their male fae going in and out for the mansion but there was no sign of Clara anywhere. She couldn't go in for fear of the banshee. They would sing her to death if she dared to step foot in their midst.Meanwhile, Clara had stepped into the ballroom. The population was far fewer than she expected with seventy percent of women. The men were very few. The women were all very beautiful and their eyes were the most fascinating thing of it all. Clara guessed banshee's not only had uniqueness in their voices but also their eyes.The ballroom was dimly lit, the walls were painted with beige and gold. a huge chandelier hung down from the white ceiling. The white marble floor sparked as Clara walked on it. looking ahead of her, Clara eye fell a throne made of silver. Beside it was a small stool and on top of it was a silver crown. The throne and the crown looked luminous. Then her eyes fell on th
The women were now on their way to the pack house. Melanie was driving, Nimue sat on the front passenger seat while Clara and Mira were at the back. They soon reached the pack's territory but were stopped at the entrance of the pack by the patrol team who were always there to perform stop and search on cars going in and out of the pack territory.On seeing the two banshee at the front the werewolves turned aggressive and asked them to head back, saying they have no business with the back until Clara opened the back door and called one of their names."Liam, they aren't here to make trouble. They're here to help" she told him."And the witch, is she also here to help?" Liam asked.Clara forgot that the werewolves could sniff out a witch, right now there was more than one witch in the car."Trust me, Liam," Clara said. She could protest in the gazes of the others but Clara could only care less at the moment.Liam hesitated at first but decided to put his trust on her. She was their Luna
Silieus mietr anri kpocus"Silieus mietr anri kpocus"Both of them kept repeating the word and Clara felt a strange weave of power pass through her body and the sudden change in the room atmosphere. The wind blew through the ladies' hair meanwhile the candle lights were burning ever so brightly and on the other hand, the symbol on the floor had started to move and was now forming into a straight line. The witches continued with the chants and the line dissolved again before forming a pentacle. At the same time, Skyler's bleeding wrist was healing and his eyes had returned to normal.Skyler felt a heavy load leave his body and his senses returned, looking sideways,he saw Clara with another girl, one look at the girl, he already could tell she was a witch and what is a witch doing in the pack house and why is Clara with her?. These were the first thoughts that came to Skyler's mind."Clara?. What's going on?". Skyler voiced out.On hearing the familiar voice, Clara opened her eyes and h
"Alright, we will be waiting for you, we have so much to talk about" Nimue said. The ladies left the room and Clara followed them down to the car and saw them off. She watch Mira who was all curled up in the back and sighed.Soon after Skyler came back dressed in casual clothes and Lucas was trailing behind. He looked handsome as ever but Clara also could see the sadness in his eyes.Wait here, while I go bring the car" Lucas said to them before leaving.How are you holding up?" She asked Skyler who was unusually quiet. He turned to her" I'm trying to hold on as much as I can. I hurt my pack and I hurt you. It's it's.." he let out a sigh. Clara patted his shoulders" calm down, sky. You'd be surprised what ove can do and I know the pack loves you" Clara said to him.Lucas brought the car to the front of the pack house and Clara and her mate climb in. Skyler sat in the front passenger seat while Clara was at the back. Clara knew Skyler was supposed to rest after everything he had gone t
Evening shadows deepened into blue and purple and the sky had turned to molten brass. The atmosphere was lighter as usual since calm has been restored back to the pack again. Skyler sat near his mate and waited for her to wake up, she had been sleeping for hours now. Skyler wondered how exhausted she must have been for these past few days and felt sorry for her as he was one of the reasons he had been stressed to this level. Some walked into the room and saw Skyler sitting next to his mate but Skyler looked tired as well." Alpha" the person called, making skyler turn to look in the direction where the voice came from."Lucas, why are you still here?" Skyler asked."I needed to make sure the warriors are alright," Lucas replied."Is everything alright with them?" Skyler asked."Yes, the doctor had examined them and they're good to go," Lucas told him."That's good to know,I'm relieved" Skyler said with a nod.How is she?" Lucas asked. Skyler turned his head to look at the sleeping Cl
Clara continued being pampered by her mate. Clara had remained in bed for the past three days. Skyler would fix a bath for her and feed her and in the evening time, he would take her for a walk in the pack. Clara had wanted to go to the banshee mansion to deal with some things but Skyler didn't let her out of sight. He would nag Clara for leaving her bed when she was supposed to be sleeping. Clara enjoyed the pampering she was getting but then, she was bored to stay in the quarters all the time. The pack warriors who she helped break their curses also came with their families to show appreciation. Clara was a lot closer to the pack people now. She had also tried to speak with Pius but the man was cold as ever. During the week, Clara visited the welfare center but Skyler didn't let her stay for too long, she just delivered the lunch and gift and they were on their way back to the pack house. By the end of the week, Clara became fed up with the pampering and decided it must stop.Clara
Clara made her way to the living room where Nimue was waiting for her, by the time she got there only Nimue was seated in the living room and Melanie was gone.Nimue, what is it that you want to discuss with me?." Clara asked, making Nimue turn in her direction."Yes, sit down please," Nimue said. Ankara went to take her seat opposite her and listened attentively.Nimue took out the big brown envelope containing some documents and handed it over to Clara. Clara collected the envelope and stared at it before looking back at Nimue who gave her a Go-Ahead.Clara unsealed the envelope and brought out the documents, at first she didn't understand it until nimue started to explain."They are the deeds of ownership of this Mansion; the mansion belonged to the Shayne's. It was your mother's and now it should be yours. My family is only a caretaker like we have been for centuries" Nimue said.Character that the documents in disbelief" are you sure it's okay to own this?" she asked."Yes it's y
