RAIHANA.

It is a trap, the poison in the air, the side of the building caving in to trap us here. The only thing that she isn’t counting on, is the fact that

I’m not alone.

Aunty Red had seen us duelling and came to my

assistance.

Just as Sephora brought down the wall trying to trap me alone, Aunty Red had managed to jump in before the walls came down. 2

Sephora now stands there, magic tingling at her fingertips, a smirk of confidence on her face.

“You heard the High Witch Magdalene! Raihana is your new leader.” Scarlett warns, her voice a menacing snarl as she clutches her waist. 1

Sephora sent several shards of crystal at her when the wall came down, simultaneously releasing a wolfsbane poison in the air.

to play, and she is Sephora is here to win, not proving that through her merciless attacks. If it wasn’t for the poison that I have inhaled, she would have been mine already.

“A hybrid as the ruler of the coven? One who is not of pure blood?! That’s madness!” She scoffs, laughing as if she had just heard a funny joke.

“Clearly it isn’t Hecate’s command that you are obeying right now,” I say coldly. The witches under the command don’t look happy with what they are doing, but Sephora… well, it’s an entirely different case with her.

She tenses, her gaze flicking to Scarlett before she looks at me.

“We are but our Goddess’s pawns. What she wishes for is a duty we must obey! Like she’d bless you to be the next High Witch!” she

sneers, sending another wave of power at me.

I deflect it, my eyes burning with rage.

“Stop dodging!” She snarls as I move my head to the side, letting another blast she sends my

way rush past me.

“Then up your game, Sephora! You want what I have, then show me you are worthy of it,” I taunt coldly.

“You are the daughter of Endora! An outcast! A traitor! A Dark Witch! How can the coven allow you to be chosen instead of me?!” She hisses.” When he is in charge, I will rule as his ally as the head of the coven! Why was I not chosen?!”

“Because you are irrational, stupid, and power- hungry,” I say coldly, deflecting another attack, as she starts chanting again, her voice angrier and more powerful. 2

I just need a little time… just enough to gather enough power…

I glance at Aunty Red as she clutches her waist. She has protected me but in return…

I look at the large pool of blood beneath her, my stomach churning.

I need to end this fast.

Sephora’s eyes blaze as she runs at me. Streams of her power travel across the ground and wrap around me before she throws me to the ground.

She grabs my jaw, as I try to focus on my powers, almost there…

I can feel my energy returning, despite the wolfsbane clinging to the air.

“Well, this irrational, stupid and power-hungry witch was able to kill your Alpha without

batting an eyelid,” she whispers tauntingly into my ear. 2

My heart thuds as my mind goes blank, her words ringing in my mind.

I look into her eyes. She’s smiling, an amused

glint in her eyes.

The numbness vanishes as fast as it came and, with it, excruciating pain wraps around my

heart.

The painful reminder that he is no longer here returns with ruthless, cold-blooded vengeance.
