The couple dropped Clara in front of the mansion before driving away again. Clara made her way inside the house and to her surprise the whole place was crowded with people, especially workers who were cleaning and fixing things up in the mansion.Clara made her way to the living room in low spirits. The coronation wasn't much of a concern to her. On reaching there, Nimue and her granddaughter seemed to be having a deep discussion and Clara wondered what it was about.Ahem" Clara faked a cough to get their attention and it worked. They quickly adjusted themselves on the sofa and turned to face her."Ah, Clara you are here. Come take a seat"Something was definitely off with these two. Clara sighed, I inwardly hoping that it wasn't something bad because she couldn't take any more bad news."I was hoping I could get some sleep before the big event. Do you mind me staying here for the night" Clara asked. She was tired and just wanted to lock herself in a quiet room and away from everyone
At the undiscovered place, Annette was seated with two other witches and at the corner was the outcast, Mira."I think we have waited for too long. Let's put an end to the Alpha and his abomination, "Mirable said."I agree. Balance needs to be restored" Lidia said.Mira who was sitting at the corner found it uncomfortable that the witches were planning to kill Clara and her Mate. Mira was never allowed to take part in coven activity neither was she allowed anywhere important issues were being discussed so, she didn't have much details as to why they wanted Clara and her mate dead.She was a witch herself but the others chose to treat her like an outcast for something she knew nothing about. Mira had always wondered why she was being treated like an outcast in the coven. Her brother used to be one of the strongest and respected witches in the coven. But since he died of poisoning, the coven had turned against her, especially Annette who she believed was her brother's mate.For some rea
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
