SAVE ME

Ms. Agatha was panicking and not only her but Carla too.

Even if they both tried to but up a bold front, it was evident.

It’s been a month since Laura left the Witches’ realm.

“I’m worried about her. Did something happen?”Daisy whispered.

They were seated in class as Ms. Agatha taught them a new magic spell.

“I know. I know she was the top in the Witches’ weekly exams and I envied her for it but I never wanted anything to happen to her” Raquel interjected with a loud sigh.

“Is lady Josephine really going to just sit back and do nothing? I mean Laura is her daughter after all”

Raquel stood up from her seat.”Can you teach right now, Ms. Agatha?”

“Raquel!”Carla scolded.

“You student has been missing for over a month now!”

“I know that!”Ms. Agatha shouted loosing her cool as she slammed her books on the desk. “Do you think I don’t want to do anything about it? I was ordered not to do anything!”

“But why? Doesn’t lady Josephine want to find her daughter?” Regina, a blue eyed witch asked.

“Exactly. I mean, we can all agree that Laura is the worst but we would never want anything bad to happen to her”Flora countered

“You all should speak for yourself.”Sarafina said sharply loosing her cool. “I really couldn’t care less if she’s dead or alive so stop interrupting the class”

“Sarafina!” Carla shouted finally speaking up.

“What? I wish she’s dead and she never comes back.” Sarafina looked around the classroom ” This realm has been peaceful for the past one month if you can agree with yourself honestly”

“Enough!” Ms. Agatha shouted. “That’s enough”

A loud scream from outside the classroom was heard.

“Everyone stay inside” Ms. Agatha cried before going out with Carla to access the matter.

Outside the classroom and making her way indoor, was Laura.

She wasn’t the same Laura anymore plus this time, her father was beside her.

Everyone screamed from the aura being radiated from Kendall.

That aura of dark power.

“What’s happening out there?”Ruby asked from inside the council room.

The members had gathered around once more to punish Layla, a witch who had been caught with a wolf.

Witches and wolves have been known to have a lifelong hatred that could never be broken and thus, it was a sin to be romantically involved.

“Whatever is going on is none of our business now or is it?” Josephine asked as she documented the poor girls’ crime.

“You will be given 40 whippings and then your carcass would be fed off to the vultures”Josephine said to tbe girl as her eyes bulged.

“Please have mercy on me, my lady. I promise it won’t happen again, please” Layla cried aloud.

Josephine stood up from her seat as she walked up to Layla.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

She trailed her hands against her cheeks. “The only way to make sure that it won’t happen again is if you are no more and that’s exactly what I’m doing”

“No”A voice said making Josephine turn around towards the door. “The only way to make sure that punishment won’t be meted to her again is if you are no more”

Laura smirked”And that’s exactly what I’m doing”

Josephine sighed. “It like you are bored seeing that you came home. You should have stayed wherever you were longer”

“I brought a present for you, Josephine” Laura said.

Josephine’s eyes widened. Laura had always called her mother, what happened?.

“Come in, father”

Josephine’s eyes widened as Kendall walked in with his cane clacking against the ground.

“K-Kendall” Ruby stuttered as if she’d seen a ghost before passing out.

“Ruby, wake up!”Aiden cried trying his ernest best to wake her up.

Clementine smiled as she saw them. Something’s bound to happen soon between them. She thought.

Josephine tried to hide her shock “You were alive?”

“It’s not like you didn’t know, Josephine”Kendall said

Laura placed her hands over Kendall’s “Are you ready, father?”

Kendall nodded his head as he tightened his grip on her hand.

“Let’s go”

Hand in hand, they both charged towards Josephine as they muttered a spell in unison.

Back in the desolated island, Damien scoffed. “So suddenly?”

“Yes”

“Why?”

“You don’t want my blessings?”

“Honestly, father. If I was going to marry Alexa, I would still do so without your blessings”

Valdir sighed. “Your absence at home had made me realize that I really love your mother”

Damien furrowed his brow ” What?”

“Your mother has been worried about you and crying non-stop, son. I told her, I would do whatever it takes to bring you back home to her”

Valdir eyed Alexa “Even if that means giving you my blessings”

“Father-”

“Damien” Alexa said grabbing his hand and pulling him aside. “I think we should go home now”

“Alexa, you don’t know father like I do. I’m sure he has something up his sleeves”

“Whatever it is. I know how much your mother must be missing you right now” Alexa placed her hands on his cheeks ” And I know how much you miss her too even if you don’t say it often”

Alexa held his hands “Let’s go home now”

Damien nodded his head as he turned to his father.”I’ll come home but under my terms”

“And what are those?”

“One, in three days time. I’ll come home in three days time”

“Fine by me. Is that all?”

“The last one is that within those three days, I want you to arrange for my wedding”

Valdir’s eyes widened in surprise “You still want to marry Gezelle?”

Damien laughed out loud “Not her father. Alexa. Arrange Alexa’s and I wedding within those three days. Afterall.. you DID give us your blessings”

This time it was Alexa’s eyes that widened in surprise.
