AzaelythI stare at myself in the full length mirror as my mother pokes and prods at me, admiring her handy work. I must admit the dress she chose is stunning, tight fitting floor length dress with a plunging neckline. The shimmer of glitter effect over the black. I hate that my hair has to be this colour of brown but my mother said they would be able to recognise me if I had my white hair. My mother and I look remarkably similar and she is sure that the queen and the king's sister could figure out who I was. My father has been like a bear with a sore head all day. He has insisted that this isn’t worth it and if I get caught it is treason, therefore punishable by death. I could hear them arguing about it earlier but I decided to keep out of it. My father keeps asking her why she is not happy with what she has. He mentioned the name Cicero a few times but my mother shut him down.I could see my father growing weary of her plotting and planning, at times I wonder if not for the bond w
BellatrixTwenty minutes later Amphion comes back with the young witch, she still looks unwell but better than she did. She is very shy as he explains we are his sisters and we are going to help her to get ready for tonight. Her cheeks heat as he kisses her forehead and leaves, leaving her standing, staring after him. You can tell the poor girl is nervous as she turns to look at us clutching a bag that I think has some dresses in it. Holding the bag out to us she looks like she wants to cry.“Your Mother gave me these to try” She says, I smile and go to her.“Diona, isn’t it?” She just nods, I smile at her “This is Denu and I am Bellatrix” A frown crosses her face, and I know what she is going to say before she even says it. “Our other sister is in her own room with her friends” She just nods. I notice Denu rubbing her temples before she goes to her mini fridge and drinks one of the purple vials out of it.She catches my eye and frowns at me, mouthing the words ‘WHAT!’ as she places
Bellatrix I am a mass of nerves, I know it’s not until tomorrow that I turn eighteen but the feeling that something bad is about to happen just has my stomach in knots. Saint has been telling me to relax and enjoy my party but as the clock gets closer to midnight every tick of the hand has my nerves getting worse. I stand staring at my dress that I had picked for the party, remembering the feel of the fabric against my skin, how amazing I felt in it. The stunning beading detail in it, the bright pink with silver strappy sandals and silver jewelry really stands out beautifully. Even now as I look at it my excitement and joy is overshadowed by fear and dread, I wish I could just get over this and have fun. I mean it’s not everyday that you turn eighteen and find the mate you have been dreaming about. I don’t know why but Emerald flashes through my mind, she is almost three years older than me and has not found her mate. I feel guilty for the fact I have never even thought to ask Em
DenuI slip my glove off, running my hand down the material, enjoying the feel of it against the pads of my fingers. The top layer has a black sparkle to it, giving the dress a look like it has glitter all over it. The full skirt has a fairy princess look to it, except the dress is black.I have been hiding from most people today as my spirits are on overdrive and it’s giving me a headache. They managed to silence the Jinn for now but my mother is so suspicious I know she will be watching me closely. Nimue had made it clear that me housing the Jinn needs to be temporary. I Sigh and fall onto my bed as I lay looking over my dress and the ridiculous high heels I chose to wear with my dress. The black platform sandals strap up my legs with a spike heel and an open toe, if I am honest I spotted the shoes before the dress and then found something to match them.The simple short black silk gloves and the black net vale that covers my eyes I decided to wear sits to the side. I glance to my
CatalinaI just wanted to get out of there, standing holding hands while we chant some nonsense. Honestly if it wasn’t for Amphion I would have refused, but since my brother is the only one who doesn't judge me. He actually sees me for me, not my magic or lack of it, I am sick of being compared to the great Bellatrix and Denu.I feel the rage as I see how Denu looks at me as if she finds it amusing that aunt Len had made me look like an idiot in front of these omegas. Her and Bellatrix are going to get a taste of disappointment sooner than they think, I don't even argue when she wants to leave. I take a deep breath and calm my emotions as I know they affect Emerald, at times she is the only one I can stand to be around. She never judges me, in fact she never judges anyone. Aunt Fallon is like that as well, always has a kind word or a hug at the right time. It’s a pity that Brat Frayja isn’t like them; she seems like a proper mix of my sisters.If I am really honest I am still furious
DenuThe minute breakfast is over I stand hoping to slip away needing to be outside in the fresh air. The minute I stand, so does Emerald, she never takes her eyes off me, I roll my eyes at her. She just shrugs, smiles and links my arm pulling me out the building. I just laughed and shook my head, I should have known she wouldn’t let me away with it.We walk past the training building and into the east treeline, she wants to make sure no one can over hear us. We walked about ten meters into the forest, I couldn't help myself. I slip my shoes off and sigh as I feel the magic humming under my feet. Emerald does the same before she hops up onto one of the fallen trees. “Do you want to explain why I can see and feel the Jinn within you?” She asks, narrowing her eyes at me daring me to lie to her. I decide to lay down on the forest floor, closing my eyes, allowing the smell of the early morning dew to calm me, the moss soft under me. “Den!” Emerald snaps, my eyes fly open.“OK” I sigh, s
