Torn Between Love And War; A Witch's Tale
(Volume 1 completed) A world where witches and warlocks practice witchcraft, bloodshed, sacrifice, and worship underworld deities. One witch, Elvira Cain, loses her heart to her species' enemy, a wizard while working as an undercover spy. Her heart is now torn between loyalty to her kind and the man who has opened her eyes to a new world of kindness. If she chose him, would he ever accept her true nature? Even if he did, would her family let her live with that decision? War, bloodshed, and consequences will surely follow whatever choice she makes.
Chapter 80
Elvira removed her bloodstained clothes and stepped into a bronze bathtub. The water was precisely the right temperature. When used on trivial things, magic always produces perfection. She sat on the bottom and looked at her legs in horror. There was still a sheer red imprint of the blood. She picked up a loofah and began scrubbing with vigor.
The stains were gone, but not the recollections of the event that had just taken place. Elvira dropped the loofah and buried her face in her palms.
She had just returned from the ritual of power transfer performed by Itar. He had successfully transferred the power from Dominique to Serena and her; Elvira absorbed seventy percent and Serena thirty percent of it. Though Elvira didn't feel any different, Serena wasn't feeling that well. According to Itar, she needed rest to adjust to the new energy. He said that her body had reacted to it better than most of its past carriers.
