The door swung open as my mother stormed out of the room after completing a deal that made her smile wider than I had ever seen. She was so lost in her excitement for claiming the female's ability to have children that she, thankfully, didn't notice me or hear the door hit my boot.

A small gold brooch. It was Elder Mara’s. I stared at it… then at her. A thief. A desperate, stupid and perfect thief. A slow smile spread across my face before I could stop it. My miracle had arrived. “Well,” I said softly, stepping closer to her, “you do realize stealing from the Queen Mother is a death sentence. And Kairos doesn't like thieves. He’d have your head in the village square by noon tomorrow.” Her knees hit the floor immediately. “Please, Princess! My mother is sick and we haven’t eaten in days, I swear I didn’t mean to, please don’t tell anyone!”

"Well done." Mom rose, came to us. Hugged us both. "I was so worried," she whispered. "But you have made me so proud, sweetheart." Her face hardened, but not at me. "I hope I can count on you, Coven Leader, when I go looking for the thieves in our midst?" Deep breath. Prepare for the worst. "Though you know I'm one too, right? Mom went pale but Gram didn't react, watching, eyes narrowed. "Syd," Mom whispered. "What are you talking about?"

Blood moon day it's a day when they kill the captives, sacrificing them to the goddess. "Unfortunately, she turned out to be the thief of Alpha Matteo's heirloom," the chief guard declared and The crowd erupted in murmurs. "She looks so innocent!" "She’s so tiny!"

With a mother as a stripper, I suppose he’s around just about the worst type imaginable. “You really shouldn’t do that,” I scold him. “It’s dangerous. If you’re caught, you can get in serious trouble.” He walks toward the metal staircase. I can’t help but feel sorry for him. Poor kid. Resorting to stealing because he’s hungry? What kind of mother would leave their kid out here anyway? “You sit there and don’t move,” I tell him. “Wait for your mother and don’t get yourself into trouble, do you understand me?”

“No. You… You're trying to justify theft; you stole and—” “I have a perfect explanation: the money I'm supposed to get from the jewelry was to be used for us to start a new life. I mean, let's be realistic here: how long are you going to pretend? What are you going to do when the time is due?” She questioned, which made me move back, still shaking my head. “Now he thinks I'm a thief too.” “It doesn't matter what he thinks of you.” “Oh my god, my mother is a thief,” I said more to myself as realization hit me.

"I came to say hi. Everyone in the house is sooo boringgg. No one wants to play!" I let out an equally stiff laugh. "Well, I'm free to play with you, friend." But before that... "Where's your mother?" I ask. Theo's mother is a witch; a truly horrible person. The first time she saw me with her son, she marched over with her claws drawn.

The man started swaying them in the air earning soft shrieks from them. "Mamma!" they both yelled in unison and laughed out loudly. "What will your mamma do now? This monster will throw you in a dark forest today." the man said making them laugh out loudly knowing he was just playing around with them.

Faythe “Oh my Goddess, can you imagine stealing from your mom? How hard up do you need to be?” Sapphire whispers to her friends but she’s not really trying to be quiet; I can hear her loud and clear, which I’m sure was her intention. “See, these good pups know it's shitty to keep money back. You’re going to pay me back every single cent you’ve stolen.” My mother tightens her grip on my hair as she growls down at me.
