Chapter 284: Repercussions

Blue.

"Who is in charge? I know there is someone else,’’ I manage to ask this question. There is someone that is part of this association.

They all look at each other. There is hesitation in their eyes. it seems like they don’t want to tell me who that person is.

"She would like to be kept anonymous for now,’’ Major informs me.

I stand up from the couch "That is bullshit. How would you all like for me to go to the elders with this information? Someone in this coven is practising dark magic. The kind of magic that is forbidden and I want to get to the bottom of this."

"No one here is performing dark magic,’’ Mage pipes in. I don’t care about their words. From all I can see here, I know for a fact that they are somehow involved in this.

"What plan did you guys have to get rid of my mother? If you are being honest about not being part of her attack, tell me what you were going to do."

They all look at each other again. I wait for them on my feet. I am trying to get a sense from them—anything that will give me some information

"The attack wasn’t on us. We were going to do things the honest way. We were never going to kill her,’’ Pogue answers for them.

"What is the honest thing you planned on doing?’’ I ask.

"We were going to speak to the elders. We were going to do things officially. We had a list of reasons why she wasn’t fit to lead anymore,’’ Evanora stands up from the chair she is on and walks out of the room. They all watch me and I wait until she comes back into the room with a book. She hands it over to me and she is actually being sincere. There is a list.

These people seemed like a threat before I walked into this house. Looking at them and the way they are behaving, I don’t think they are the ones responsible for what is happening to Rex. Someone is behind it and I am starting to think it might be whoever their leader is.

"This list doesn’t make any sense, you are telling me my mother is this mass murderer. That she has killed all these people?’’

They all nod at the same time. "She is manipulative and vindictive. She only cares about herself. Why do you think there have been so many attacks recently?’’ Mage mutters.

These attacks haven’t been recent. They are just more frequent. I don’t know what has been happening while I have been gone but my mother wouldn’t hurt anyone. Yeah, she is a little self-absorbed but she is not evil. "I don’t believe this,’’ I state.

Pogue sighs. "We can’t force you to believe us but we wanted you to see his Major’s memory. That is why we sent Eva to you. this wasn’t planned. The fact that there is someone out there wanting to get rid of your mother is just a coincidence." Mage tells me.

I look around this room. I might not fully believe them but I am a little bit certain that they are not lying "I need your help,’’ I manage because at the end of this all I need to find a way to unbind Rex from whatever spell he is entrapped in. I need to make sure that he doesn’t hurt anyone while he is still trapped.

"We are on your side,’’ Major smiles at me. His dimples come out, illuminating how handsome he is. I look away from him as I continue.

"My mate, he is in some kind of spell. I don’t know how to get him out of it. I don’t know how to reverse it."

Mage nods "You mentioned dark magic. The only way it can be reversed is by using a counterspell. You will have to go to the dark side to do that."

I have thought about it and I knew it would have to be something I would have to do but there are repercussions and I don’t know if I will be able to handle them. At the end of it all, it seems like a last resort. The only option that I have. I don’t know if it is something I will be able to come out of but as I said, I will rather lose myself than lose Rex. I can’t live a life knowing that I failed him. At the end of it all, this happened to him because of me.

"I will do whatever it takes. I need to know how to do this,’’ I breathe out. It will take a lot from me but I will do this. Even if I have to sacrifice everything. I will always protect him.

"I know someone that can help you,’’ Mage stands up and walks over to me. He has a smile on his face. His skin is a caramel chocolate colour, highlighting the gold in his eyes. Everybody in this coven is attractive. Mage is no exception.

"I have a friend. On the outskirts of town. I can take you to him—if you let me."

I don’t trust him. I don’t trust anyone in this coven but I have no choice. I could either stay and wait for more damage to occur or give this a chance and see what happens. He is watching me, waiting for me to give him the answer he already knows I will give him. There is no debating this. This is the last option I have.

"Okay. Can we do this now?’’ I ask already getting inpatient. I want to fix everything and take Rex back to his home. The one where he is safest. Just bringing him out of his orb has caused a lot of damage.

"Tonight at eight. Meet me at the gates,’’ he tells me.

I nod and close my eyes, with hopes that this doesn’t eventually ruin me completely.
