"What was that power she wielded " one asked.
They had finally come down after the head witch used her spell.
"It's what I wanted to warn you about before I was interrupted," he said.
"What is it?" they glanced at him.
"Her mother was a witch, a powerful one. She put a curse on my son, after a dispute with our kind" he said. "I found and killed her but my wife begged me to let her child go ".
He sat down, "So I did and placed her under the care of some crazy which.... I guess I should not have, 'cause now she seems powerful with my son's powers " he said.
"How could you let him mark her fully knowing all this " the other elders argued.
"I found out too late, he had marked her already," he said.
"This is evident that the young master might be under her spell. How could he fall for a witch, and one from the person who cursed him".
Damien's father smirked.
"But with her, his curse can be broken. Instead of pushing her away, we can use her to break it then we can fully dispose of her before she turns into a real threat ".
They all agreed, for their future depended on Damien.
.....
Mila had kept running not looking, she didn't know what happened but she wasn't going to let them hurt Ian.
"Mila, you can stop they won't chase us " he said.
She turned back.
"Really?" she huffed.
He nodded, he seemed to be in pain.
She stopped, "Are you okay?"
"I will be, give me a minute," he said.
Mila loomed around, "Ahh, which one is your car?"
He breathed pointing at the red car.
She helped him into the car and drove off.
Mila stood outside the hospital room Ian was being attended to. They said he had broken a few ribs and had internal bleeding.
Sam arrived hugging her.
"What did I do Sam, I didn't for it to get this bad" she cried.
"Don't worry he will be fine, as long as you okay?" she said.
They waited outside until they were told to go see him. He was asleep now and out of danger.
Sam watched over him as Mila left to go get a change of clothes.
....
"Have you seen this lady here? " Mila noticed Damien's father's men and moved back.
Had they come here to find her, she could not go back there. Something had happened that she didn't know what.
She turned and used another route to leave the hospital. She had put Ian in danger cause of her carelessness.
Mila ran off and got a taxi.
.....
Ian woke up to see Sam beside him. She smiled.
"Hi there tough guy " she said.
"Hi, where is Mila?" he asked.
"Left to get a change of clothes, glad you're okay," she said.
He sighed.
The door opened and Damien walked in.
Ian frowned noticing the ugly look on his perfect face.
"Are you okay?" he asked. I
Ian nodded.
"Where is Mila " he asked.
"She's back home, getting some rest," said Sam.
"What happened?" Damien asked Ian.
Ian blinked.
"I can't say, she saved me from your father," he said.
"Ian be more clear "
Ian sighed.
"It was not the mark's power but her own. Those that belong to the witches " he said.
Damien had left the hospital heading back home to see Mila. She wasn't answering her phone.
"Witch!, was what her old family said was true. His father had taken her from a witch. But why, what did he want with a witch's child?
He got home and asked the maid if Mila was in her room.
"The mistress hasn't been back since you left," she said.
He stopped at the stairs and turned.
"She isn't home?" he asked.
Nodded the maid.
"She isn't " she assured him.
He rushed out, "Where the hell are you now, Mila ".
