Third POVAnabelle stood before the council locked in chains. From afar, she could see the face of her best friend Alina, all cloaked up in disappointment. After the incident, Alina had no choice than to perform her duty, knowing it would be sacrilegious to harbor a murderer."How could you Anabelle?" The queen asked staring disapprovingly at Anabelle. She had been dumbfounded by the news of the killing. "Whatever had come over you?"Anabelle hadn't figured out the right words to portray her thoughts. She couldn't imagined herself taking a member of her coven's life. Regardless, it couldn't bring to life the Witch doctor."I think I have an answer to that."

I had been naive enough to fall for a simple speech from an old witch.Reaching the brink of the river, I took a moment to rest and while I laid my head in the ground, staring into the sun which was little less scorching, I wondered whether I would evet see Alina and so many persons in my pack again. It was apparently looking impossible, but it didn't meant a thing.Closing my eyes and inhaling the fresh air from the trees, a figure suddenly appeared in my vision, blocking the path of the sun and before I could react, I began to feel dizzy and eventually passed out.Cold water splashed across my face, bringing me back to reality. It was night and the set of people standing before me had the look that depicted they were witches. I couldn't move as I felt my hands tied against a tree."Who are you gu

Things had been going smoothly in the morning, but that all changed when the guard who had been spared from the invading witch ran into the mansion, panting and covered in blood.The guards who were stationed at the door wouldn't let her in easily, having seen her state. They tried to prevent one of their own, which caused a mild scuffle. She still managed to bully her way into the mansion in a bid to see the queen.She fell at the feet of Valve Coven's Queen, who was in the middle of listening to a complaint from one of her the member from her pack. The queen's expression was one of shock and horror as the guard began to speak, her voice filled with fear and urgency."We were attacked at the boundary my queen."

Nadia POVHis eyes were closed and he was definitely trying to observe silence thus, the question why he would choose to call me at such hour, when he knew that it was times like this he meditate.Once again, the door opened and standing behind me, was the hybrid prince, who seemingly looked like he just came out of a fight."I called you both here for the same reason. I need you to understand that the lines for battle has been drawn and while on a trance few minutes ago, it was revealed to me that the an invasion would be happening soon. Several men would be on their way here with several army; and also army of the dead."

Remembering the instructions from Alina, while she had attempted to train me, I knew they would be to great use. This time I accelerated with the attack and begin to attempt to strike a part of him with the sword, but he was experienced in the defense area and this meant serious problem to me. After a second long battle of having to use my sword effortlessly, I felt moved back by his strong hands and he initiate an attack. His strikes were fierce and the impact left my hands shaking visibly. I wasn't a master at sword using and in the end, he dispossessed my sword off my hands, placing the point to my neck region.
