Payback's A Witch Novels & Stories

The witch had come after like an hour of waiting for her, "I apologize for being late, was in the middle of something when you requested my presence" "That's okay. Shall we begin?", Lucien said as the witch was already briefed on what was going on. "Yes Alpha, we may begin". The witch's voice was heard as she started whispering some words cause it was certain that, whatever drug Rebekah had given Lucien was made by a witch and that was why it was so effective to break it, they would also need a strong witch, "welcome it Alpha Lucien", the witch said to him as she went on with her chanting",

That, and the thick jacket on my back. “Okay, Mel,” I murmured to myself, “backtrack.” It was a trick Ramona taught me whenever I was stuck or confused. She would tell me to think back to the beginning, and retrace my step. Retracing my every move from the beginning would help me look back into my memory to see what I missed. Witches memory are clearer and sharper than the average human thanks to some potions witches and wizards give their children at birth. I could still very well remember my last moment with Ramona as though it happened five minutes ago.

I barely make audible. “We are powerful beings, but we can not return those that have died. Somethings are final. Except you, you’ve come back. Some kind of sacrifice, blessed by the moon goddess herself. I imagine you can also hold your own against an alpha’s command? Who made the sacrifice?” The brunette witch frowns at me. “I don’t understand…” I repeat because I do not understand. “Death Aida, you have seen death!” The brunette responds, with a straightened back.

Gabe let out a snarl. “Take me,” he grunted, taking a protective stance in front of me. “Let them go.” “You still don’t know do you?” A witch from behind us jeered. “Who said it’s you we wanted? Though your head on a spike is an added bonus for what you did to one of ours in the caves.” The witch who’d attacked Gabe gave another sinister laugh and her eyes locked on me. “Descendant of Sybl, the Queen of Darkness. Come with us and we let your pack go free. Or else."

The witches fell silent once more, their eyes fixed on the flames that now burned higher, as though feeding off the very magic in the air. "We have waited centuries for this moment," Morrigan whispered, her voice barely audible over the crackling fire. "Uriel will free us. And in return, we will ensure that she becomes the most powerful witch this realm has ever known." And if you do not want to do it for her, do it for my Sister, our own bloodline, our lost souls, let us pay these people back in their own coin.

She casually say. " What? Is it even safe for you to go back?" " Your Alpha told me that they got the witch who was responsible for kidnapping me" she remind me of that horrible woman. " I know but still, we know she didn't work alone , so the other person is out there" " That's the more reason for me to go back and get my strength back, so I could be ready when we find that person" I know she is right but I'm being selfish because I just got her and I don't want to lose her , if that even make sense.

Just as I was celebrating Bruce's safety while simultaneously mourning my multi-million-coin loss, the witch added conspiratorially, "But I hear this big shot is conducting a purge right now." "Yeah. After he got his memory back, he took care of all the elders and rivals who backstabbed him while he had amnesia. One by one." "They say he was ruthless, merciless. Didn't even bat an eye." Ruthless? Merciless? A chill shot up from the soles of my feet to the top of my head. My mind started frantically replaying scenes from the past few months, and I realized a very, very serious problem:

“She isn’t just a liar and a runaway.” Gabriel waited, breath caught somewhere in his throat. Paige stepped closer and said the words that froze him completely. “She’s also a witch.” ***********

"That was just me venting! Don't take my words literally! I'm telling you, Claire, the bank's money isn't that easy to take! This is unjust enrichment! It's a crime! If you don't return it, I'll make sure you regret it!" I laughed. "If it's a crime, go ahead and call the police. Let them come and get me." I hung up. And just like that, I blocked the number. 'Want me to return the money? Fine. But if you're asking, show some respect. This tone—commanding, bossy—is that how someone asks for a favor?' Besides, I was not one to take a loss.

Kathilyn said. "You can call me Cobra." He answered. "Really? That man is a crow and you're a snake? Do you just pick random names by playing games?" Kathilyn scoffed sarcastically. "No, it's based on our roles. For example, our boss, Crow, is someone who is sharp and analytical. I'm called Cobra because of my sneakiness." Cobra smiled proudly. "Fair enough. So, should I go home now?" Kathilyn asked. "Yes, you may go home now." Cobra then led her outside by covering her eyes until they're far from their hiding place so that she wouldn't know their location.
