"Can you kindly beg your baby sister to just for once, come to the palace with us. She has been making silly excuses ever since to not come to my home. Whereas I am always here in her home, day in, day out... If I wasn't here, I could have missed my mate, who knows? She might even be missing her second chance mate by not coming to my home." Athena says with her lovey-dovey smile to Adonis. As usual, Adonis grins back at her and comes walking to me to do her bidding. Issh. Brother's so whipped. I raise my hand to halt whatever he has to say "Nope nope, just forget it." I tell him, crossing my legs on the sofa as I force my eyes back to the book in my palms Adonis was enrolled two moons ago into the final year through dad and the royal twin’s influence. Surprisingly he has been topping his class, making Athena the second best and Ares the third best in a row. Coupled with his good looks, now Adonis has quite the reputation of fangirls much to Athena’s annoyance. We are all, to be st

"Hwuatiki is the last surviving witch of the white cat coven, who is gifted with the power to foresee the future and commune with the spirits of the dead. Hwuatiki has the gift of hearing and knowing the will of the moon goddess, when she refused fighting alongst side the white witch and the red witch tribe in joining forces with Reficul in impeaching the moon goddess' reign. Whereas, the red witch tribe which still exists today in the Kard realm, had previously manipulated the white witches’ vision with dark arts into foreseeing wrong about warring with the moon goddess That irked the moon goddess so much that she killed all of them, she had least expected the white witches to betray her..." Dad tells me, as Adonis had umpteenthly teased me for having a dumb head, when I begged him from the palace to tell me about Hwuakiti. Athena and him did say that they had forgiven me for speaking harshly to them, and not telling me was going to be my punishment. But did Adonis have to say th

"Dad, you didn't have to, honestly. You know why they are here in the first place." I whine, as Dad tucks me into the bed. Even though Dad had done his testing, and it all came out positive, that didn't deter him from treating me like a baby."I only did because, I wanted some closure with my niece. She is the splitting image of my baby sister..." Dad says sadly"Aunt Uriel? Only in looks I think." I sayDad chuckles "In everything, Pumpkin. The face, smile, attitude. Mom pampered Uriel to a core and gave her practically everything. Just as Ketura has a clique of her own, Uriel too had hers, they were called the Prudent witches. She was everybody's favorite girl in school... every male's desire was for her to be their mate.""Wow. Their clique's name is so cool, compared to the K -girls." I say, making Dad's head to fling back in laughter"...so, what then happened? What happened to Aunt Uriel?" I ask quietly"Like every girl's fantasy, her mate soon came along. They had the most perf

"Your mate? Glinda, I presume...?" Dad's eyes narrow even fiercely"Mr. Crofus? You are Hermione's father? How comes no one told me about you?" Glinda finally finds her voice "Well, I am Glinda and it is so nice meeting you, Mr. Crofus" Glinda curtseys, extending her hand for a handshake. For a second, Glinda’s smile actually felt genuine."Hermione's Ex-best friend. It is nice to meet you too, Glinda." Dad shakes her hand firmly, before letting go. She almost falls."You mind joining us?" Dad says half-heartedly, before continuing with his meal"I really do not mind, sir. Thank you." Glinda finds a sit, beside Helios. She smiles happily.I watch her beneath my eyelashes. Is my dad charming or something? …Or could it be seeing a father figure after so long, that's affecting her this way?If only you had told me, Glinda... I would have been there for you regardless…“Eyes up Hermione, you are becoming soft towards our enemy.” Ezli seethes“Sorry. I just feel sympathy, that’s all.” I mu

“How far is it?” Glinda grumbles to Ares, falling into my pace. I know she has been meaning to say something to me since we left the house.Helios and her had gotten a ride together, while the rest of us had snuggled up in Ares’ fly car, much to Athena’s detriment; who wanted some time alone with her mate, who's been talking excitedly with Ares about the training house.I, on the other hand have been having my best moments with just thinking about, how Helios looked away when I winked at him. Could he perhaps, be having some desires for me?“You should swipe off that smirk from your face, Hermione. You are not getting my man.” Glinda spits angrily“Oh. I am so scared, Glinda." I scoff, before looking at the birds that perched on a maple tree.“Stay away from Helios, Hermione. I am warning you. Do not look at him, do not as much do anything with him!” Glinda threatens, her eyes going darkMy eyes roll nonchalantly “Do what? Like kiss him under the full moon, outside the royal ball? The
