ZANDER“We just need a drop of blood,” he said. “This strip I created can detect if a werewolf carries witch blood.”I stepped forward immediately. “No. That’s not happening.”I didn’t care what they claimed that test could do. I wasn’t going to let them hurt her, not even a finger prick.Vivian laughed.Not just any laugh—it was the kind of laugh someone lets out when they’re done playing games. It was bold, mocking, and full of confidence.The masked man stood in front of her, holding a small strip in one hand and a needle in the other.Vivian placed a gentle hand on my chest. “Zander, it’s okay,” she said, meeting my eyes.“No, it’s not,” I replied, my voice low but sharp. “They want to humiliate you.”She gave me a soft smile. “A clear conscience fears no accusation. Let them try whatever they want. The truth won’t change. It won’t change the fact that I'm not a witch like they claim,”She turned back to the masked man. “Do it,” she said with a shrug. “Take my blood. You’ll see I’

ZANDERVivian and I shared a quick glance, and I gave Tanya a nod before turning to the car. While she went into Lucas’s car and we all drove out heading home. The drive back was quiet. Vivian leaned her head against the window, watching the trees pass, while my thoughts were loud and painful.I could tell that Vivian was greatly disturbed too. The sadness in her eyes gave her away.But I console her yet because I was dealing with my own grief too.Selene’s face wouldn’t leave my mind since I was informed of her death.She had been safe. Hidden. Calm. Until I went to the woods that day after receiving a red note from her.I thought It’d be like the other times she sent me a red note. I didn't know that was going to be the last time she was going to be living freely in the woods.Instead, I brought doom to her doorstep. I still remembered the moment black liquid started leaking from her eyes and ears. That was when everything began to go wrong. That was the moment things began to spi

ZANDERAfter dinner, Vivian’s family said their goodbyes and left. We walked them out, and I noticed how Lucas kept glancing at Wendy.There was something different in his eyes. Warmth. Interest. As they stood by the car, Wendy leaned forward and kissed him.It wasn’t long or dramatic. It was soft, shy, and sweet. It was enough to make Lucas grin like a fool.I looked over at Priestess Tanya. She had been quiet all through dinner, barely speaking unless someone asked her a question.But when Wendy kissed Lucas, her eyes softened. She gave a little smile, the first real smile I had seen from her since Selene’s death.That smile only lasted a second. After that, she went back to staring at the floor, her face blank again.Vivian’s mom, trying to lighten the mood, said, “Looks like love is in the air, huh? Now we just need Wendy to plan her wedding before Vivian pops out a baby.”We all laughed. Even Tanya gave a tiny chuckle, though it faded quickly. Once they left, we all returned to t

VIVIANI screamed at Zander with all the anger in my chest, “What the hell are you doing?!”The moment my voice rang through the hallway, Zander immediately pushed Caroline away like her touch had burned him.His eyes widened when he saw me standing there, but I didn’t give him a chance to speak.I turned around and stormed into our room, slamming the door shut behind me. My hands shook as I locked it.He came after me quickly, knocking on the door. “Vivian! Please, just listen to me. It’s not what you think—”“Go away!” I shouted, backing away from the door. “Sleep somewhere else. Or maybe in Caroline’s room! Since it looks like that’s who you really want!”“Vivian, please,” he said again, his voice desperate. “It was a mistake. Please open the door. Let me explain.”But I didn’t want to hear any more. I yelled louder to the extent I felt guilty that it might wake everyone up, “Just leave me alone, Zander!”After a few more seconds, the knocking stopped and I heard Zander’s receding

VIVIAN When Priestess Tanya said there was a problem, I frowned and shifted uncomfortably on the bed.There had always been a problem since Ronald divorced me and I had to hide all this away from my Mom whom I never hid anything from.My fingers gripped the edge of the blanket as I sat straighter. I didn’t like the way she said that, so slow and serious.I closed my eyes and let out a long breath, preparing myself for whatever was coming because I knew that it wasn't going to be anything good.“Okay,” I whispered, opening my eyes to meet hers. “Tell me. What the problem is gonna be?”Priestess Tanya looked down at her hands for a second, then back at me. “Vivian, the spell cast on Caroline… it’s not just a normal love charm. It’s a strong and dark spell. Evil. And if anyone tries to undo it, that person might be in danger. Real danger.”I felt hopeful knowing that Priestess Tanya didn’t say that the witch who tried to undo the spell would die for certain. She just might be in danger.
