“aunlish di amord a mesnish, aunlish di amord a mesnish, aunlish di amord a mesnish” my eyes roll to the back of my head as I chant. Holding the yellow python in my left hand, as I took a knife, I sliced it straight from its head to the tail, drawing blood. As it falls into the bowl beneath, I start to smile. Taking my fingers, I put them into the blood, circling around, again chanting the same words. The blood starts to boil, blue sparks igniting like flames. The spell is working. As the sparks ignite, a symbol appears in the shape of a circle. Taking my fingers out of the bowl, I rub them together, looking up. I feel the sparks as they travel inside my veins, turning them to a shade of black. It travels in a snake-like fashion till it reaches my shoulders. Opening my fingers and holding my hands a few inches apart, I see the sparks as they travel from one hand to the other. It’s done. Knowing that I will be able to transform into whatever I would desire, I get a smile on my face. T

Chapter 44: The meetingBrian’s POVAfter we rode to the cliff, there was tension between us. Getting back to the pack house, we went our separate ways.“How was the ride?” Bruce’s voice was right beside me. “Well…what do you want me to say? We went for a ride and came back” not wanting to tell him that I probably messed everything up for Cayden and his mate.He goes to stand in front of the mirror in the entrance hall, smelling something, almost squeezing his nose into the mirror. I lifted an eyebrow. What the hell is he doing?“So, what are you doing standing so close to the mirror? Anything I should know about? Like maybe liking yourself too much?” I say, starting to laugh, “Nope, I passed here the other day and smelled the most intoxicating scent ever, coming from here, and Andy my wolf keeps screaming mate.” I see him still looking but not knowing what the hell is happening. A smell from the mirror? Really and that of his mate? What the hell is going on? Since Hailey arrived, we

Serafino’s POVAs I entered the room, I could feel the tension. He was sitting with Hailey, my angel, on his lap. Knowing that we were way outnumbered, I just breathed. I could take matters into my own hands, but what if Hailey got hurt in the process? I would never forgive myself. I could still not believe that I had a brother and a werewolf no less. This lady Marry started to speak. Hearing her explain everything I knew, the other person that knew about the secret was my uncle.Why did he not tell me about my brother and why did I stay with him and not my parents? How did I become a vampire, as it was obvious that my father and mother were werewolves? So many questions were going through my head that I got a headache. Was the white wolf I saw in my dreams my mother, the one I could not help? Was this why I had this pull towards her? I feel Rebecca’s hand on mine to give me some comfort. The story about my curse was the same as what my uncle told me, but yet it felt new. Now that it

Before I could open it, Serafino was in front of me. His face was so close that if one of us should move we would be kissing. Blocking me in with his hands next to my face, he leans his head next to my ear, whispering.“You are mine Hailey, I will have you”. I could hear the determination in his voice.Opening the door with the hand that was on the doorknob, I dug down and entered the room. Closing the door as soon as I am in so he does not follow me in. I just stood for a few seconds trying to catch my breath. My heart rate was going a mile a minute and my senses were in overdrive.“Can we go for a run? I need to clear my head?” I asked Athena.“I would love that, to the lake?” I can feel her excitement.“Ye, well why not” with this, I turned and, after making sure there was no one in the hallway, I went down and, exited through the back door. It is still a bit rough when I turn, but it gets better. I remember what Brian told me to do and with Athena also helping, I turned to my wo

A round seven, I go back to the dining hall knowing that Serafino and the rest would be arriving soon. As I arrive, I see Bruce, standing next to the bar. He had a glass in his hands. “Liquid strength,” he says as he lifts the glass.I hear footsteps at the back of me, turning to find Serafino and Rebecca also arriving.Serafino was wearing a suit. Where did he get that? Maybe Rebecca magically got him one?She was wearing a black cocktail dress with high heels and her hair hanging loose over one shoulder. “Rebecca, you can sit here next to me,” Bruce says as he takes her hand.“You look beautiful” he whispered in her ear, making her blush.“Serafino, you can sit where you like,” I showed him to the table.“Can I get you something to drink?” I turned to the bar area.“A whiskey on the rocks would be great. Thank you” he says as he walks toward me.Mary arrives and just stands in the doorway looking at all of us.“I see we are all here. Wait, where is Hailey?” she looks at me“I wen
