17 Witches?

"Freya Michaels, would you do me the honors of being my wife?"

Linda and Janet who hadn't noticed Nicolette whirl to look at me in shock.

Then I understood. I became deaf to the world, I could only hear my heart beating and it was beating fast.

I couldn't explain why I felt betrayed, used, rejected, rage. I couldn't control the anger I felt, my wolf felt.

All of a sudden, I am being dragged away by Nicolette.

"Control yourself wolf" she scolded me in my head.

Then I noticed my claws were out, I was partial shifting.

You know what I am. I thought.

"Yes I do, I am Lucien's twin, he tells me everything, what were you thinking shifting like that in a room full of Vampires? Are trying to get my brother killed?"

Your brother?

"Yes my brother, because if you are caught and to be killed, he will defend you till his last breath and I can't have that, I know you are heartbroken, I feel for you, but be rational."

Does your brother truly ever love me? you said he tells you everything.

"I am not going to answer that when you already know the answer, I am in your head remember."

You said you only see things I want you to. I shrieked.

"I am joking, trying to distract you, and it worked, your hands are back to normal."

I looked at my hands to see she was right.

I thought she hates me, why are you helping me. I said in my head.

"I am not helping you, doing it for my brother. And I don't hate you."

"Silver!" Janet calls out.

"Silver!" Linda joins in.

"Go, your friends are looking for you," Nicolette said, taking her hands off my wrist, breaking the communication, then she walked away.

While I walked in the direction of Linda's and Janet's voice.

"Where were you? I saw Nicolette drag you away, but not the direction where, are you alright? Did she do anything to you?" Linda asked worriedly.

"She didn't do anything to me, just wanted to talk."

"Talk? Did she threaten you?" Janet asks with fire in her eyes. What did I do to deserve such wonderful friends?

"No, she actually, help me."

"Help you with what?" Linda asks stunned.

"To understand something, and she also calmed me, I was feeling annoyed about the proposal."

"About that, are you okay?" Janet asked.

"I am fine, he invited me to end things with me properly before he proposed."

"What!" Janet exclaimed.

"That's messed up," Linda added.

"No, it is fine, I understand why now."

They both look at me like they don't believe I was okay.

"Guys, I am okay, and if I am not I am going to be," I said doubting that.

"We should leave," Janet announced.

"Let me inform Martha, then we can go," Linda said as she left.

"Do you need us to come over to your place?"

"No, you guys spend so much time at mine, let go to yours or Linda's."

"Linda's is it then."

"You always avoid me going to your place. Why?" I asked with a serious face

.

"It is the same reason, you keep lying to us." She said blankly. I was stunned,

"I..I…" I tried to think of what to say in my defense but I was coming blank.

"It is fine, everyone got secrets, when we are both ready, we will tell it."

"How?" I didn't need to say much for her to understand.

"Like I have said previously, in this few months, I know you already."

"Does Linda knows I am hiding something also?" I asked.

"She knows I am hiding something, and also knows you are. I wish things can be different."

Janet sighed. We were silent thinking until Linda's voice broke through the silence.

"Guys, Martha is ready to go, said we should go-ahead to the car, she will join us in a few minutes."

"Okay, It is your place," Janet stated.

"Sure."

"I will ask Mrs. Jackson for permission," I informed.

We all headed toward where we parked the car.

A few minutes later, Mrs. Jackson came, after asking for her permission, she dropped us all at Linda's then drove home.

Linda, Janet, and I were lying down, they were all sleeping, but I couldn't. I kept thinking about what happened at Thorne's mansion. Both Nicolette and Lucien know what I am, who else?

Lucian has powers, he said the auditory shield is just one of them and Nicolette is telepathic. It means they have more power than me. What if they turn against me.

Can I trust Nicolette to keep my secret?

I know I can trust Lucien if I am right, he thinks he is protecting me by leaving me.

After he rejected me, my wolf has been nagging me, he not to be trusted.

I signed. If I keep thinking too hard about it I will go crazy. I close my eyes to sleep.

I wake up in a forest, I have been here before, but I don't recall when, then I saw my mother running, she was pregnant using her hands to support the bottom of her stomach as she ran. She was bloodied, I remember where I have seen this, in my dream, but then her face wasn't clear. I heard the laughter that freaked me out, "you can run but can't hide, Luna. "

Then I woke up with a gasp, sweating, breathing hard. Linda and Janet were still sleeping, so I quietly went to the bathroom. I splashed some water on my face.

Luna, the person chasing her called her Luna, that is what the alpha female of the pack is called, and she was born a witch, so the only people who will refer to her as Luna are her pack mates.

But she was killed by Vampires, but chased by a werewolf. What am I to believe, my dreams or Mrs. Jackson's story.

But she also said Mrs. Jackson should take me away from this madness, vampires, werewolves, and witches.

What could have happened that she didn't ask for me to be taken to the pack?

Or is both my dream and Mrs. Jackson correct?

The logical explanation is that she was chased from the pack, so she ran to Margareta, what happened I don't know because, according to Mrs. Jackson Margareta was bleed dry and it is the work of a witch, if mother didn't kill her then a witch was involved.

"My baby and I are not safe in the pack neither here, I want you to take her somewhere far away from this madness, werewolves, vampires, and even witches"

Those were Mrs. Jackson exact words, and 'even witches'

It is said as if she wasn't expecting witches to be involved.

What the hell happened that day?
