Lucy 2

Stepping out of the room where a group of green Looking trolls and as soon as they came out.

A handsome looking man exited the room as his Blonde hair glowed slightly, curled in all edges.

His eyes were as black and as thick as Night itself but it was what made him both charming and captivating at the same time.

He was dressed in a casual outfit as his long legs matched the blue jeans he wore perfectly.

Making his way down the stairs, Linton couldn't help but stare at the huge house.

It seemed like it had become bigger and wider than it was yesterday.

As he came down from the stairs, he gasped upon seeing the huge Living room.

The living room was grand and opulent. It was large in size with high ceilings and large windows that let in plenty of natural light.

The flooring was made of high-quality materials such as marble or hardwood, and there was also a plush carpet in the center of the room.

The walls were adorned with expensive artwork and there were also ornate chandeliers hanging from the ceiling.

The furniture was luxurious and comfortable, with plush sofas and armchairs upholstered in rich fabrics such as velvet or leather.

Let's not forget the fireplace with a grand mantle and a large flat-screen TV mounted on the wall. Overall, the living room was a space that exudes elegance, sophistication, and luxury.

Just then, The Voice of Raven was heard, "You're finally Ready brother in-law..come, come!"

She said and hearing that, Linton went towards her as she introduced him to a Middle aged looking woman who was talk and beautiful.

Little did Linton know that she was over a thousand years old even though she still looked strong and beautiful.

"This is Aunt Freda! She is the houses Butler and head maid, she handles everything that happens in the house and she had been here for over hundreds of decades so she knows the in and out of everywhere!"

Raven said adn upon hearing that, Linton bowed slightly to Freda and upon seeing that, she just nodded as she then made her way back to the kitchen.

"C'mon.. let's eat!"

She said as she called him over and seeing that, Linton followed behind her straight to the breakfast table.

"Are you hungry? See..I had Aunt Freda make you all your favourite.." she said as she sat happily.

But Linton just stared at the food weirdly, "How did she know about my favourite food?" He questioned a little confused.

And hearing that, Raven giggled as she said, "I know right…haha.. coen seat!"

She said pointed at the chair seeing that, Linton just sighed as he took a seat.

"What happened to everyone..why Is the house so empty?" He asked as he looked around.

"Empty? Pffts! Don't vbe too easily deceived Linton. This houses iss bugger than it looks…this is just the fifteenth floor…. this is just the house owned by Mano. There eare more houses than this and literally all our relatively live there!"

Raven said leaving Linton a little taken aback, "Eat quick!"

*****

After they were done eating, Raven stood up as she said, "C'mon.. follow me!"

She said and hearing that, Linton quickly stood up as he followed her to wherever she was going to.

Getting to a huge black door, Raven smiled as she then opened it and it let them to a huge Library.

But not any library. At least not anyone Linton had ever been to.

This was really huge…he was sure that millions of books where here. It was even bigger that the library at Mano's room.

How huge was the mansion? Linton thought to himself as he asked, "What book are you looking for? A spell book?"

He said as Raven responded, "pffts..no of course not, what would I use a spell book for…I hate casting spells, I hardly cast spells and anyway, I'm not that type it witch!" She stated as she kept on searching for the unknown book.

"Then what type of witch are you?" Linton asked and upon hearing that, Raven immediately stopped what she was doing which gave Linton a little scare.

Turning around, she said, "There are two type of witches! There are the dark witches..those witches serve the darlk lord and we have the good witches, those witches are the types that use their powers for good.."

"And then we have the Modern Day witches!" She said as she then continued with what she was doing.

Following behind her, Linton asked, "Modern Day witches? What type of witches are they?"

"Well….they are just ordinary witches who live like ordinary people…they hardly use their powers but just live their Normal live like humans…they depend on technology, cars Instead of Brooms and we are modern witches!"

"But it's doesn't mean that we don't follow our traditions. We stick to it for the rest our life and as Cousin Mano being the ladyship of our coven..she has bigger duties to perform!"

Raven said, "Although she has lived her normal life for a while now…the curse is about to come to life and that's when her True test begins. It won't be easy but as her cousin I'm dedicated in finding ways to help her as much as I can!"

*******

Who was lucy?

Well we could call her a demon but I prefer calling her a fox. And as a demon that she was, she was trapped in the barren abyss where all other demons were kept to keep the world safe.

But she was lucky enough to escape but that was when her story began. After escaping from the barren abyss she met a man who she gradually fell in love with but that wonderful feeling didn't last long.

She was unlucky to get caught by the demon hunters who had sent her to the barren abyss but lucy for her that it was at that moment mano had appeared into her life.

Taking her as he spirit pet, mano gave her soething that no one else have ever given her and that was the will to live.

She had revealed her true identity as a demon to the man who she loved but he just abandoned her for another woman.

In the end the only person who she could rely on was no one other than Mano so she would rather die than betray the woman who had given her a second chance in life.

***

"Boss.. Mr. Nelson is here to se you." said the worker behind the dor and hearing that, a smirk appeared on Mano's lips as she said, "Took him long enough..let him in."

Mano said as she then went back to her seat and just then, the door dashed open and making its way in was tedo in his brown expensive suit.

He was neatly dressed as always, as his hiar was combed slightly whivch maw him look smart and handsome. If it was before in the past when mano was still madly in love with him she would totally be blushing real hard right now.

Upon seeing tedo,mano folded her hands as she said, "This is really weird…the last time i remember i thought you didn't ever want to see my face again but here you are, standing in front of me..or wait! Do you want to ask me or forgiveness..if so then i have to tell you that your chances are way gone."

Mano said and hearing that, Tedo had an annoyed expression on as he said, "In your dreams Mano, i would rather hang myself than come to you for forgiveness and it's not like i did anything wrong in the first place.. anyway, i'm only here to settle business with you fair and square.:

"Huh? Business? What business are you talking about?" Mano pretended not to know and it just made Tedo more angry.

'I know you remember the business contract that Sharon had given to both of us…about Mr. William's wedding!"

***

Who was Mr. william?

Well only one of the most richest billionaire you would know in graceland and hw is getting married to his second wife next week saturday and sharon who is well connected was able to get the contract for the wedding decoration and styling and since mano and Tedo were both involed with something related to this she thought that maybe they could work together and share the profit.

But she should have given them this contract sooner before they became each others biggest nemesis.

"I just want to tell you that I've found the right styling to use so you don't have to bother . We will start designing first thing tomorrow so it will be ready before the wedding,,,the color pattern is blue and white so don't forget."

Tedo said as he turned around to leave but stopped midway as his ears welcomed the crazy laugh of mano who was almost out of breath as she laughed at his ridiculous words.

"What makes you think that you alone have the right to come up with the color pattern and decoration for the wedding!"

Mano said as she stood up from her seat, walking slowly towards Tedo who totally had an annoyed expression on.

"I, Mano, think that the color blue is horrible so I'll go for red since red would be perfect for wedding styling!" Mano said as she folded her hands in pride.

And upon hearing her words, Tedo snapped, "What game do you think you're playing Mano! You and I know very well that you don't even need this contract but yet you are still trying to drag it with me."

He said angrily and hearing that, Mano said, "Do you know what's funny Tedo? It's the fact that if I was still the old me.

I would have given this contract to you and followed your every word but that old me is gone Tedo so don't you expect to be treated with respect because I Mano Fredlock Don't give anyone who doesn't deserve Respect!"

"I might act weird to you but this is who I really am.. I'm just always sweet around you , you better get used to it!"

Mano said as she gave To those stares that could set houses of fire and upon seeing that, Tedo had a blank expression on.

He had never realized a day when Mano would be this mean to him would come even though he saw it coming.

"In that case, let's make a deal!" Tedo stated Suddenly as Mano took her seat.

"Deal? What deal?" She questioned.

"Why don't we design the pattern which we both want to use for the wedding and by Wednesday, we show it to Mr. Williams and whoever he chooses shall be the one to take the contract!"

Tedo explained and hearing that, Mano was silent for a second as she joined her hands together saying, "Great plan but let's make it more interesting…20 million!"

"Huh?"

"Whosoever gets the contract would also be given a 20 million cheque from the person who lost. How's that?" Mano asked deviously.

But Tedo didn't seem to like the plan too much, "I don't think I wanna accept that!" He stated.

As Mano chuckled slightly, "What? Are you already admitting defeat or…hahahah!" Mano said which only made Tedo more angry.

'What could you possibly lose, after all your design is mind-blowing and will surely win..and what's twenty million, you're now married to a rich wife…and you might just win twenty million from this crazy witch'

Tedo thought with a cunning smile then appeared on his lips, "Fine then…it's a deal!"
