NINETY-ONE
Archer watched as her expression seemed to change. There was something off about Clarissa, and he wondered what that something was. He wasn’t sure he would keep ignoring it.“Babe?” He said softly.She smiled tersely. “I… What I’m saying is, I need more time.”“Time?” Archer asked in confusion.She licked her lips delicately and proceeded to move away from him, taking more plates and stacking the burnt food in them. “Yes, time. I have to think about it. It’s a big step, you know,” she added with a nervous laugh.“Right,” Archer said tersely.It wasn’t right at all. This wasn’t the answer to the Clarissa he knew. This was another woman. He had been trying so hard to believe that this was a part of her mood swings, but he was failing to do it now.Something was off.He pushed his way out of the kitchen, feeling hurt for some reason. This wasn’t the answer he had wished to get this morning, and it was quite disappointing.“I need to go to an important meeting. Time is already running ou

Archer stared at the note in his hands. Clarissa couldn’t leave him. He wasn’t going to allow that to happen. This couldn’t keep happening. She couldn’t keep walking in and out of his life, using visiting as an excuse. This time, he was going to look for her, and when he found her, she would have to talk to him directly.His hands went through his hair, and then, he shoved the letter into his pocket. The last time had gone back to her hometown, she had come back weird, and he couldn’t let that keep up. He would do anything to bring her back. Anything. He looked around the sitting area. Archer was sure that she must have dropped something in her haste to flee the house. People always made mistakes, and she was human. It was higher for her.He rose the couches, and center table, and found nothing. Then, he walked into their room. He went to the vanity, trying to see if she must have left it in the drawer by mistake. That was unlikely, but there was nothing impossible at the moment. Mi

NINETY-THREE
Clarissa swallowed hard as she thought back to the mirror image that had appeared to her last night. She couldn’t really believe that this was happening to her right now.She only wanted to have some sort of peace, and all this was not right for her. She watched anxiously as Mandy and Ember exchanged looks. “Just tell me already,” she pleaded.They sighed, and Mandy stepped back, leaving only Ember to explain what it all meant.‘The thing is, there is always a duplicate of a witch. Some duplicates are not greedy and rarely cause havoc. They only show up when needed. But a few others, like you, have troublesome duplicates. The scholars call them doppelgänger. They will stop at nothing to make your life miserable.” Ember explained.Clarissa gasped in shock. She didn’t want her life to be miserable. She was only trying to live her life these days, and she had never hurt someone intentionally before. So, why should she have a duplicate that would frustrate her very existence?Ember was s

NINETY-FOUR
Clarissa swallowed hard as she got up from the bed. She barely had the urge to do anything anymore. Everything was heading straight to destruction. If her coven members attacked Archer and his people, would she be able to sit back and watch it unfold?That question almost made her lose her balance. The last thing she wanted was for her to give the very person who had fought for her safety to the dogs. Alpha Archer had loved her first. He had shown her what true love meant, and somehow, she knew though these people shared the same powers as her, they could never replace him.“Eh…” Mandy mumbled.Clarissa turned to her. “What do you want to say?” She asked calmly.Mandy itched her hair. “I don’t know if I should tell you or not.”Clarissa frowned at her. She was not ready for this nonsense right now. She had a lot she was thinking of, and this attitude Mandy was suddenly sporting was the least of her problems.“Say what you want to say,” Clarissa snapped.Talking to these people was be

NINETY-FIVE
Clarissa walked deeper into the station. She sensed a slight power mixing with the atmosphere in the air but barely focused on it. She was caught up instead in trying to get home. She couldn’t wait to meet Archer, and pull him out of the cage that he would enter with her doppelgänger. People were everywhere she looked, which made her frown. She could barely see the white-collar men who helped travelers to go to their various homes or locations.Ugh!Clarissa walked further into the station, careful not to hit anyone on the shoulder. It could get nasty here most time. She turned to the left and made her way out of the terminal.Normally, she would have spoilt herself with a cup of coffee, but this time, she had no interest in taking one. She was worried sick.Someone touched her by the arm, and she jolted in shock, as she turned to an elderly man holding a white cardigan. It looked vaguely familiar, but she wasn’t sure if it was who she thought it belonged to.“Yes?” She asked impatie

NINETY-SIX
The atmosphere in the cab was hostile, and Clarissa kept asking Archer how far it was till they got home. Archer looked at her in confusion. She had literally come to the bus station from home, so what type of question was that again?“Babe, we will be home soon, don’t worry,” he said softly, trying to hold her hand, but she pulled it away from his reach.Clarissa looked out of the window, and her eyes caught a coffee shop. She imagined that Archer took the real Clarissa to normal moments, and decided to go for that.“Babe, look at that fancy coffee stall. It’s making me crave coffee now. You know how much I love it,” she said softly.Archer turned to face her and rose a brow at her. “You like coffee? Since, when? You literally can’t stand it. Have you forgotten?” He asked in shock.Clarissa bit the inner part of her cheeks. She would have to be careful to avoid being ratted out. The potency of the charm was slowly going down, and it was important to know what she let out of her mouth

NINETY-SEVEN
Clarissa looked at Archer in shock. Then, slowly at the drink which had spilled all over the carpet, mixing with the broken shards on the floor. She looked back at Archer, and he was looking at her in shock.“Eh, I saw something in the drink,” she said lamely.He frowned and peered at the drink on the floor. “What?” He asked, confused. “I mean, I can’t see anything right now.” She chucked. “Right. I had assumed something was there. Silly me,” she mumbled softly.Archer rolled his eyes at her. Then, he pulled her closer to him, kissing her on the forehead. She held him hard. The thought of anything happening to Archer made her sick to her stomach.She was going to do something about her double. She wished she could have told her that she was no one to say what was good for her or what wasn’t. She was the one who was living her reality and not her double, but she knew deep down that her words would go to waste.If her double was anything like her, she would be relentless, and wouldn’t

NINETY-EIGHT
Archer stared at the door, still holding the book in his hands. He wondered vaguely what was going on with the door. The last thing he wanted was for Clarissa to be in danger.He tossed the book where he had found it, and slowly moved to the other side of the room, careful not to alert the intruder about his presence. The door finally opened, and a figure stepped in.Sam?Archer relaxed his stance as he stared at his stance. What was the use of entering the room like this? Sam always knocked when he wanted to see Archer in the room, so all these were sort of strange to him.“What’s the meaning of this?” Archer snapped.Sam bowed to the ground. “I’m sorry, Alpha. I assumed you were in danger, and I wanted to take the stranger unawares.”Archer frowned. “What made you think that?”Sam looked up then. “Yesterday was my off, and I was wallowing away my time in my room. Well, I heard a sound of a cup breaking and thought it was some sort of danger. Unfortunately, I couldn’t get anything ou

NINETY-NINE
Archer watched as Zachary stepped into the house looking completely pleased with himself. He was holding a small rod that was made of thorns. It was obvious that his men had given it to him.Archer was filled with rage. These men had insulted him so leisurely and he hadn’t been able to do anything to them. He tried to control his temper as he focused on Zachary while mind-linking Sam to pay attention to the men.“Hello, Archer,” Zachary said in a sing-song voice.Archer gritted his teeth in rage. The disrespect was becoming so incessant at this point, and he had to put this bastard in his place.“You will not disrespect…” Sam started, but Archer looked at him firmly, and he swallowed down his words.Archer turned his attention to Zachary, who was smiling like he won some lottery. Archer had the urge to wipe the smile off his face, but he maintained his cool. He would not be blindsided easily.“Oh, good old Driver, whose name is Sam is also a guard too. So funny. Anyway, I’m not here t

ONE-HUNDRED
Clarissa knelt with one leg and tied her sneakers in the middle of the pathway. She’d been jogging for fifteen minutes nonstop and trying as hard as she could to make sure that she doesn’t burn her energy while at it. It had been a means to clear her head, and she realised it was actually working, and she enjoyed it very much.At that moment, she heard some movements to her left. She turned rapidly to the side but saw nothing. It could have been the trees rustling to the wind, she thought to herself as she stood upright.“Alright C, you’re yet to cover 30kms,” she teased as she looked across the path.She knew that there was no way she would be able to cover that much, but there was no harm in building her confidence. She had never been sporty, but according to the coven, she needed to start being sporty. It was not mandatory for some witches, but for her.She was different in almost everything. Clarissa smiled as she resumed her jog. She flipped her hair up even more with a band. It
