Semua Bab The lost hybrid: Bab 301 - Bab 310

As soon as I give him the go ahead, Dante rushes over to check on me and even Hazel. He has heard me speak of her often enough to know that she means something to me. Hazel was slightly taken aback by the Alpha of the pack coming to check on her. Still, she takes it in stride as she finishes calming down. I create another bed for her in one of the spare rooms so that she can sleep up here and away from everyone for a couple of nights. I even went so far as to add her specific signature to the door so she will not need me to get in.Once she settles herself in her temporary room, Dante and I find ourselves alone. It has been such a stressful day that I do not even know how to unwind from it. My witches were attacked in their own home. That is not something that can be taken lightly. They might be the Council but I am not going to allow this to happen again.I walk up to him and just collapse in his arms. He winds his arms around me as I bury my face into his chest. This is not how I ex

"Get out of my room. I will talk to you some more tomorrow. I need some space for now." I tell Elle angrily.WIthout another word, she backs out of my room with her hands up. She must be able to tell just how upset I am with her right now. That is not just some small secret to keep. That is something major. "Are you alright?" Dante asks me."I feel like you have been saying that a lot today." I joke halfheartedly."Yes, well, you have had one heck of a day. For a minute there I was not sure that you were even going to respond." He says sounding extremely concerned.He grabs one of my hands again and begins to rub the back of it with his thumb. I slowly start to relax as I focus on the feeling of his finger drawing circles on my had. No matter how bad or crazy my day is, he somehow always finds a way to calm me down. Even if it is just by rubbing the back of my hand."For a moment I did not think I could respond. My mind went blank. It was impossible for me to think or even focus on w

Even though the Council members were quiet during breakfast, there is no way that it could last all day. I am honestly a little shocked when we finish breakfast and nobody has said a word. What could be keeping them so quiet? I know that they have plenty to say.I do not have to wait long to hear them start bringing up last night though. As I walk out of the dining area, Safiya rushes up to me. "Laina, the Council wishes to speak to you." She tells me simply before walking towards their quarters once again.Does that mean that she considers herself a part of the Council still? It seemed like she was drifiting away from it but maybe they do not have any other options to fill her spot? I believe that she said that only family members can take a role on the Council but there has to be some type of fail safe in case something like this happens. Might as well get this over with I guess. I already proved to them and myself that there is not much they can do to harm me. Thanks to the Moon

I avoid Elle for most of the day after dealing with the Council. I can feel her eyes on me while I work with some of the novices on plans for next weekend's dance. After all of the drama with the Council and Hazel we decided to give it another week. Hopefully, this will help to draw the witches back together after last night's incident.As I gather some of the novices together to begin working on their dance, I notice that they all seem particularly quiet. This group that consists of Jade, Hazel, Blair and Sage are never quiet. They normally joke around non stop and in general act like teenagers. Today, they are all rather quiet but I constantly catch them staring at me. After a while, I finally snap."What is going on with you four today? Normally I cannot get you to shut up but today you will not even talk. What is going on?" I say exasperatedly."I think that they are all rather shocked after last night. You were a little scary." Hazel admits.Each of the other girls nods enthusias

Since we have decided to have some of the Full Witches do the dance with the Novices, it only makes sense that Elle and Rosa joins us for practice this one time. For now, they are under the impression that they are the only ones joining the dance. It will stay that way until the last second. What a surprise it will be for the entire Coven to see me out there dancing with the others. We gather in the foyer again to begin practice. The Novices are much more excited to be learning how to incorporate the dance moves together now. It was not too difficult for them to do the magic part without the dancing as they could give it their full attention but I have no idea how well they are going to do now.As the take their first steps, it takes a little longer than it should for the flowers to begin growing in the correct pattern. Once they finally do, they switch directions and begin to let their water magic flow out of them. Almost immediately, the water begins to saturate the flowers under t
