The Solar Eclipse and Wedding Day.

To clarify, let's say today is going to be one heck of a busy day. I'm getting married to my abusive fiancé; my birthday fell on the harvest ball, and the most powerful solar eclipse is happening tonight, and on top of that, I must be claimed by the balance of nature. Well as you can see, I'm not looking too bright. See, LET me get you caught up to speed. Well, first off, I'm a princess of a witch covenant here in New Orleans. We are the most 2nd witch convenient in the country. The first is my fiance family The Simmons Family; they rule over Paris, and yes ill be moving there after the ceremony. It will be my first outing, and the witches get to see my face for the first time and i get to see the world so it's not all bad. Sitting here looking in the mirror i can see that i turn into a grown woman, eighteen yes the big one eight. I'm blessed i made it this far and still kicking. You see, my parents were super strict about everything, I couldn't speak or be seen. No one could touch me not even my future husband not until this day anyway. So the chances of meeting people without my parents knowing are zero. Let's say i lived a very sheltered life where i been locked away in my cottage since i was 7years old. And honesty, i don't know too much about the world. I was mostly home-schooled and learn everything by reading a book, I've been beaten and talked down upon because of who my real father was. I barely knew hi just what my mother told me, when i was younger she would secretly tell me who he was by singing me a song. But truth be told i feel like that song was a prophecy in a making.

"He watches over you to keep you safe! His love keeps you secure and full of love! His happiness is to watch you grow and keep you to the heavens above." I can hear her voice as she would cuddle me in her arms and tell me how much i mean to her. My mother was my world but then she changes. Years after years, Being told that I was a sacrifice, and getting married to Jace Williamston will be helped save the witches' family. But why him? That is one thing they never sit right with me, but i always listen to what my mother told me. But i just wish that one day the mom i knew will return to me and love me just like she used to. Now let me tell you about Jace.

Dawson and I meet when we were five and been together since. We did start as best friends, Then lovers, and now enemies. He wasn't all that bad; he was super sweet but then as time went on and he started to feel himself with his looks and the woman. Don't get me wrong he's a good looking brother. Dark skin and i mean heresy dark chocolate, with brown sugar with a honey hint in his eyes. Dawson was about 6"2 and 170 pounds but pure muscle. Short haircut and the six-pack that shines when he sweats, That type of good looking I'm talking about, But when he turned 16, he got claimed, things changed. Dawson started to beat me for looking like my father, He beat me for not letting him touch me and when Dawson found out i wasn't in love with him oh i got the worse. Those sweet honey-brown eyes that use to be a close friend of mines are now surrounding by darkness, The way he would look at me made me super scared to the point where i couldn't stand seeing him. Jace truly wanted me to give myself to him and tonight im suppose to but i be damned if i let him claim me as his I rather die.

Now My step father, King Lucien Michealson of the witch covenant, was a feared man. He's a real demon in a human form, and he's just as cold-hearted as they say. He kills with no remorse, and he took children and sold them to other covenants when they come of age just to make the allinces stronger, and he raped women left them fore dead and the sad thing is my mother let it happen. He doesn't tolerate much when a woman holds power , He beats me as well becuase of the power i hold as if i suppose too be something great. My youngest brother would protect me as best as he can but my step father said I was too unique and needed to be tough, but he never let me live down because a man is worth more than a woman, and we created to bow down. But one thing my step father doesn't know is I don't tolerate the power he abused, So what my step father doesn't know is that i cast speels to help the woman in our convanat. Now my saver My brother the prince of the witch convanent. But due to him saving me My brother lost his title, helping me. My mother, Queen Cathy Michealson. A pure-blooded royal. She's a class a bitch, and let me tell you she hasn't always been that way either. She had a beautiful soul. But then She fell in love with my dad, Her first love with a mortal. Yes, she fell in love with a human, and she had no love like no other. My dad was a perfect man Honorable and sweet, kind, and love the people of New Orleans. She couldn't imagine love without him. But one day, she found out about the arranged marriage to my stepdad or the father I ever knew but anyways, she didn't wont to go threw it. So she ran away with my father and they started a life together. One night Her father found out about her stepping out of the agreed marriag. he found my fatheramd killed him in front of her, He beat and rape my mther and left her to be ashamed. Now you can see where the hate comes in on her part with me. I remind her too much of my birth father, and she hates me for it. And there's my brother Liam Michealson; He's my angel and my protector. He's been there for me even though I'm the oldest, but to me, he's my big brother. Liam lives with his wife now, Jess. She's fantastic as well turn out their mates and been in love ever since. I wish I could meet mines so I won't have to marry the ass hole.

"In do time, my kitten." I turn around to see who was that and where the voice came from, but it was just me alone in the room. i turn back around to face the mirror, looking at my mocha chocolate figure i wonder am i truly meant to be happy. I had on a beautiful white lace see threw dress with my lady parts covered; of course, it had a gold sequence of patterns on the dress as My long black hair stops to the middle of my back flowing and shines in the darkness as the black color of my hair match the color of a ravens wing and its as soft as a bunnies tail. My almond-shaped eyes had on gold and Smokey eye shadow for my hazel green eyes to pop. I put on red lipstick for my plump, soft kissable lips. What I never kiss a boy, not even my fiancé, so i guess they were kissable. "Umm... Can't wait to taste" that time i heard it. i turn around to see if i was mistaking things or if i was going mad, but i wasn't. Someone did talk to me I know it.

"But i did kitten." He said again I stood up this time and check my room out. Nothing theres no one here. " Oh kitten but i am here, you just can't see me." he laugh a little. If my door wasn't locked ill run right out of here. "Kitten i wonder will you shiver as you are right now when i touch your body and hold you in my arms." I felt a brezze hit my skin and i shiver at his touch.

"Who are you?" Nothing the fast as i felt his present it ws gone just as quickly.

Silences

Completely silences

I walk back to my vanity to finish my makeup, I turn around just to see if anyone was there. No one..."Weird, I know i someone was there." i thought tp myself. I did the finishing touches by putting on my gold chain necklace with a pearl that dangles at bottom aftre that i put on the earring to match the necklaces. But the odd thing is this gift was an anonymous birthday gift, and I fell in love with it when I open the box, it fits me so well with my dress i felt so beautiful when i saw the pearl shine with my skin. The cold pearl lays against my chest.

"As you should." it was that voice again; OK, I knew i wasn't tripping i know i didn't hear things. "Look into the necklace." what? Look into the necklace. I look down at the small pearl that fits my hand as I play with it and when i finally looked into it. i saw a shadowy figure sauntering towards me in the pearl. Wait for what! i looked around to see if what I saw was real but the room stay the same. I looked back into the pearl, and I felt my body heated up as the room went dark, and the world began to change shape as if i was being sucked in to another world. The next thing I know wasn't in my room. I was in a dark room with a tv saticing , I walked around the room blindly as i try to find my way out of here.

"Hello!" I shouted nothing, I look at the pearl in my hand and i saw my room inside the pearl and my heart stopped. i begin to panic "Hello, Where am i?"

"You're with me, I just had to see you before the eclipse and my my my what a prize." I turn around to see the mysterious hoodie figure. He sat there pacing and staring at me up and down. "You are what i dreamt. Your strong i can feel that You have a certain power that will awaken tonight. Stay close to your best friend. Things are about to get worse."

"What do you? who are you?" I asked he grin as if i knew the answer butt hte funny thing is i didn't.

"In due time my kitten." just like that, i was in my room again. I felt as if the room was spinning and my head ring. I felt sick to my stomach as if i eat a lot of sugar. What was that and how did i get back here was it real. i couldn't make out what just happened i sat there at my vanity staring at the pearl trying to figure what just happen out. "What the hell was that?" i thought to myself.

A knock on the door snapped me out my thoughts while I played with the pearl on the necklace's. I turn around in my chair just to look like i was still getting ready, then i did a loud "Who is it?" as i face the the mirror.

"It's Me." a caramel chocolate woman came in with a beautiful flower crown in her hands. It was golden with beautiful white flowers on it. I nod, and she came into the room. How can I forget my love bug, Monica Davis? My best friend and my only friend and also my maid. What parents don't know won't hurt them. "The finishing touches for that long beautiful black hair of yours." she placed it on my head, and I almost cried; it real I'm getting married, and my life is about to get worse. She knows just as much how I don't want to go threw with it.

"Kira, Are you alright you look pale as if you saw a ghost." She knows me well i cover it with a smile but i couldn't hid the fact i wasn't happy about this."You look so beautiful key bear," Monica said as she hugs me tight." I truly wish you didn't have to marry him. We can go with my escape plan," she said with a smile. She had this plan since she found out about the marriage. I shift in my seat still with out a word trying to figure out how am i going to say what i want to say with out seeming crazy.

"No, I can't. I wish, but I can't. I must save everyone here and even you." I said shaken i bite my lip and look at her in the eyes. "Monica, can i tell you something without seeming crazy." I asked she sat on my bed next to the vanity and lok at me.

"Whats hun" i was hestiant at first but i took a deep breath and blurt it out.

"Ok so i got this anonymus birthday gift with this pearl necklace in it, i was drawn to it as if it beg me to put it on. I did that as i put it on but the necklace got hot and i looked down into it." I took a breath as i left the part out about me hearing voices "I teleport into this dark room and i saw this dark shadow. I felt as i knew him all my life but i didn't. Anyway he said to stick with you because the time has come and i teleport back in here and now i, confused as to what the figure means." She was shocked and began to think "It can't be" she said as if she was trying to put the pieces together.

"Key bear, He found you" She said while begin to pace in the room.

"Who found me? Is it Dawson?" I asked my future husband found me well i hope so, He knows i been here since forever.

"No not stupid ass Dawson, To be honest he don't desever you. Dawson beats you becaue his ego is to big for his damn head." Monica hated him so back she even mmade a plan to kill him once. " Don't you make excuse, This marriage is fack and i know what your father is doing. Your parents are full of shit. I think I know the real reason why they want you to marry Dawson," she said in all seriousness. I let go of her and back up.

"So what is the real reason. I know you have no reason to lie." She pulls out a folder with my name on it in bold letters.

KIRA ANNALISE MICHEALSON

I open it, and I read what looks like a contract. "What is this? " I said with a confused but scared look on my face. " Well, that is a contract saying you were sold at birth for the wealth they are living now. Your mother sold you Kira, and now she's trying to outsmart a demon." she looked worried, and so I got up with the papers in my hand, and I felt as if I couldn't breathe. "What did the spirits say. " I ask with so much fear. " They wouldn't say, but they did say the demon was mighty and ruthless and to take you into hiding." I nod and start to look up at her. " So what do we do," i asked her.

"We run, so pack what you need, only what you need. We take this warning, and we need to take it seriously." i nod and get up and proceed to do it. We started to pack and throw stuff i truly need like all my books and clothes Oh and i can't forget Key bear. Just as we began to zip everything up, a knock on the door scared me shitless. "Yes!" i shouted, and a little voice appeared on the other side of the door. "Princess Kira, its time for your harvest ceremony." I looked scared. "Give me 5 mins, please." I shout. "yes ma'am," and she walked away.

"You have to go threw with the claiming ceremony. You have to know your true nature, but afterward, just before the wedding, we will run OK." I nodded and got up and wipe my face. "Where would i meet you," I whisper as I walk to the door. "Here, Meet me here, not a minute more." She said, "now go" I nod and walk to the door, Coming out of the little cottage I was living in and made my way to the woods towards the lighted path as i made my way doen it. I came to a stop as i see an archway with white flowers and the green vines that curl around the archway with my step father standing in front of it.

"Good Evening, Princess, right this way." I follow the two maids to the well decorate harvest ceremony. I came to face the group of my covenant as the gaced upon my faces. "Wow she's beautiful" One lady said, "Blessed be" one man said. it felt nice for the people to see me for the first time and to know they approve made me smile inside a little. People are dancing and singing a chanting as they prepare for the ritual. i look around at the setting where they hung up the jar of fireball lights from a spell my father made. They had little beautiful white windchimes with white roses attach to them. They had a small circle in the middle of the big circle they form. I walked inisde the small circle until i saw my father as his hand reached out for me to take his hand. My mother, on the other side of him, looked at me with so much hatred as if she could kill me but she was also nervous as well.

"Come, child, its time." My father said as i place my hand in his.

"Stand in the middle and face towards me." He said, and i walked to the middle and stood right in front of him.

"Do you accept this covenant and will do anything for it," he stated with strength and fear in his voice. i nod, and he continues. "Tonight, you shall know your true claiming," he whispers to me. He turned around and got a blade, and a goblin then walks back toward me. He stops In front of the small circle, being careful not to mess it up. "Brothers and Sisters, we reach the time where moon and sun have come together on this beautiful night of which now my daughter will receive the claimed." He holds up the goblin to the sky.

"The blood of our ancestors," he shouted and gave me the goblin. "Drink and let them fill your veins and your soul. let their magic give you power." I drink the blood, and it was the nastiest taste i ever had to endure. the iron taste made me want to throw up. "Now the blade." he walked up to me slowly as he stepped into the circle, He hold up the blade as he said a prayer. He looked at me as if hewas going to enjoy this. With a quick slice my neck was cut and i felt myself gassp for air, I felt myself bleed out as i fall to the ground. "Let our people's blood flow threw you. Don't be a scared child, for your death is your new beginning." I looked at the moon as tears roll down my face. I tried to make a sound anything but couldn't. The moon collided with each other, and i felt my body heat up in pain.

i roll to my right side and ball up into a ball. The pain was so intense i kept tossing and turning. blood is everywhere on my dress, in my hair, on the ground it looks like a murder scene. "Tonight brothers and sister, we dance as our Kira Annalise Michealson feel our ancestors announce her true nature. She will be at her most powerful tonight." As I felt another surge of power hit threw me like lightening stricking the ground i started cry out as i knew that i was dying, and i couldn't do anything about it. My eyes started to closed, My body felt numb, cold, and heavy like im being trapped underground and couldn't move.

I went into complete darkness. Just like the place i visit in my room. I look down at my hand as i glow white light. My spirit was changing, and i creeped out of my mind at this point. My hair grew from the middle of my back down to the heels of my feet. MY eyes once were hazel green are now different colors. The left eye is golden as the sun, and the right is as blue as the sea with the night sky. My nails got longer and I started to float up as the wing started to grow out of my back, the left wing was black and the right is white.

"Lucien, look, she's changing. What is she changing too." i heard my mother say. A huge tv appear as if i was looking at my life threw a mirror.

"Hello!" i shouted nothing. "Mom!"

"This is a problem; she's going dark; we must kill her." My father said

"How the ritual is not complete; you cant enter the circle." Mother cry her eyes out, "It's my fault she's going dark."

"Hello!" i shouted again." A bright light that shines in the darkness shows my mother crying by the circle and my father with a blade in his hand that has my blood. I watched in silents to figure out what she meant.

"Cathy, How is this your fault." she looked at my father with a scared look of what he will do.

"Before our marriage, I meet my mate, and we were happy." She cried, "My late father, king Daxon, was infuriated with me running away with a human so badly that he hunts me down and killed him in front of me." she cried so much "But what you and my father didn't know was that i was pregnant." She looked up at him again. "She's not your Lucien; I know you always known that's why you treated her as you did." Lucien walked up to my mother and started to choke her; as she was losing breath, she squeezed the bit of power to me before he breaking her neck. "I sold her to the grim reaper prince." then she died right in front of my body. I couldn't do anything but cry.

"Gosh!! Give it a rest, will you." he said with a sneaky grin on his face as he watched from the shadow "i truly doubt you care for her. Hell, i wouldn't if she treated me that way." In a flash, all of my memories were around me on big tv screens. The way my mother would hit me or called me names, she would do little mean things like cut my hair or called me a hateful slut. " You cry for this!" he said with anger as the memories that was on TV was gone. i couldn't make out who he was because of his face covered with a black hoodie. He has a scythe in his left hand, and in his right, he had a blade.

"Who are you?" i asked, backing away from him.

"Me? oh, im just the man your mother soul your soul to," he said as he stopped in his tracks. "It's finally a pleasure to meet you in a flash Princess Kira Michealson. Oh my, you are beautiful," he said with a sadistic plaster on his smile. "Your mines todo what i want. as soon as the sun and the moon part ways." he came close to me. "I'm coming to get you." he pulls me close, and just before he kissed my lips, he whispered to me and said, " Kira Annalise Michealson, you have been shadowed-kissed, and marked to be my bride. From this day forward, you will be the princess of the underworld and soon be my queen. You will serve me and only me and love no one else." He pulls me closer to him, and his smile. But no face. "In do time, You will see my face. But for right now..." He leans in kiss my lips, and oh my gosh was his lips soft; as he kisses me, i felt part of my soul leave my body, But as my soul left, another replaced with something more powerful.

"My hybrid queen, you are now part demon as you are a witch. You are just as powerful as the eclipse. Part sun the witch part of you and now part moon the demon of the part you." he pulls away from me and backs up into the darkness.

"Who are you?" i yelled.

"Soon!" and he smiled as he walked into the darkness.

"How will for find me?" i asked.

"Don't worry, I will always find you." he stops in his tracks and turns around. "wake up now; she is waiting for you. She will keep you safe and protected. Don't lose her," he said, and he was gone.

"Who!" i shouted

Not a sound, he was gone.

*4 hours later*

I felt my eyes began to open eyes, everything was blurry, and i felt as if i was moving; I began to freak out until i heard a familiar voice. "Woah, take it easy." as my vision came back, i saw Monica. i looked around and realized we were riding in something. "It's a car. The first one you road in," she said, i tried to stretch, but a strap stops me. i look at Monica to confirm the object. " A seat belt." she smiles and hands me a bottle of liquid. "It's water drink it." the water slide down my throar feeling super good and cold. "i know you have been super shelter, so I'll start by telling you the basic as soon as i can find a safe place." i nod and look at out the glass thingy i learn to be called a window.

"Where are we?" i asked as i kept admiring the trees and the sky. It felt like i can feel every element that's surrounding me. The wind gave me butterflies as the earth smells all nature and summer-like, and the warm fall weather felt as if i was at a fireplace drinking hot cocoa on a winter night. i let the window down and stick my head out because i never felt this before like i can feel everything, and it felt amazing.

"Are you OK," Monica asked; she was worried about why i stick my head out the window.

"Can i tell you something....that you promise not to judge," i asked, scared to say anything because of how she would see me. "Well, during my ceremony, i was kissed by the angel of death. He's the demon that my mother sold me too," i said, waiting for her to respond when she didn't i continue. " He came to me that night when i died. He took parts of my soul and gave me part of his. And every since i woke up, i feel different, and i can feel every element—fire, water, wind, spirit, and earth. I can also see the future in my left eye, the past with my right, the present with my third eyes which it's not shown. Oh, and i have wings." i told her, waiting for her to say something.

"I know, Im the one he sent to protect you," she said as she kept her eyes on the road. " We will be arriving soon, and he will tell you everything you need to know," she said, but the thing is i felt as i already know everything. i didn't want to talk about it anymore, so i pull my chair back and close my eyes as i slept the worries and the changes that are yet to come.
