Chapter 555: Giving in to the temptation

Blue

"Do you agree to this?’’ Magnus calls me out to snap me out of my thoughts—or should I say, whatever it is I just saw. I don’t even know if it is the past or the present. I just know that they are either dead or they would be killed.

The only person that I can think of that would be responsible for this is Analise. My mother is the one person we need to get rid of. "Yes sir,’’ I answer immediately, trying to snap out of it. Suddenly, it all makes sense, the fact that I felt like something was wrong. A smile resides on his face but it feels like this is not real.

Like they are not really here. The only scents that feel real are Gyles and Rex. They are the only ones that are real in this room.

I turn to Gyles and notice that he is watching me "Then we have a deal, the oath would be carried on the 14thof this month. Get ready to be part of the society." Willow mutters with an excited smile on her face but all I can focus on is the fact that we have only a week just I had suspected. A week should be enough time to look around, a week should be enough time to get the answers that we need. Find the room, free the spirits and find a way to reveal that Analise is not who she says she is.

I don’t know if the elders are actually alive, or dead and if there is a way to figure that out too then I will.

"Alright," we all say in unison.

We leave the room and Badger is outside, there is a wide smile on his face. It seems like he already knew what went on inside the room. I don’t even care about what was said. All I care about is that strange vision and why It even came to me in the first place. There is a lot. Of confusion in my mind. It seems like my willed sense just keeps fluctuating.

"It went well, right?’’ Badger asks. At this point, I just want to call her what she is. This is Analise, my mother, so identifying her as someone else just makes me upset.

"Yes, it did.’’

I don’t want to even be talking to her. I don’t want to see her; I don’t want to be in close proximity with her. We all walk back up the stairs and out of the dark basement and when we get into the main house, she turns away from us "Take this week to get around, this week to get used to things. Once you take the oath, there is no going back.’’

This is like a threat. I can see it in his eyes. A warning to us that there is no going back from this but I don’t care. I know what I need to do and I know that I need to fix things. I watch her as she turns away from us and starts to head in the opposite direction of the mansion. She turns to me with a last glance and my eyes open wide in shock.

I see it, her eyes. My mother’s eyes at that moment. Almost like she is letting me know who she is. Telling me that she is still alive and that she is not going anywhere. I don’t know what the point is of all this but this is just getting too much for me.

"Something is very wrong here, something that I can’t figure out.’’

"They were all dead.’’

I turn to Gyles as the words leave his lips. "I saw something inside that room. They were there but they weren’t really there, does that make any sense.’’ I tell him because it seems like he might have seen the same thing I did.

"What are you guys talking about?’’ Rex manages in an attempt to hide his confusion.

"I saw it too.’’ Gyles affirms "Somehow, I could see things for what they are in that room. They weren’t really there."

"She used a spell,’’ I state.

"Are you guys saying she killed all the elders of the coven? The people that are supposed to be the most powerful in the coven. That makes no sense."

"I know what I saw. They are all dead.’’

I don’t know how Gyles saw it but I am sure it has something to do with the book. I have been thinking of a way to fight fire with fire. My mother’s magic is powerful. The only kind of magic that can fight hers has to come from the book. I have to use the book. Gyles is an opening, a way to use it.

"I need to see the book.’’

Gyles raises a brow "It’s in the car,’’ he tells me.

I nod my head "You guys go on to the room. I will get the bags from the car." I grab Rex’s hand in mine "You remember the way?’’

He nods immediately.

I leave them and walk over to the front door. All thoughts stuck on what I am about to do. I have hated the fact that Gyles has been so tethered to that book and here I am, wanting to do the same. Maybe this is desperation. I am fucking at the ends of my ropes. I am tired of this back and forth. Tired of all this bullshit and if I have to take this turn.

Make a connection to the book of evil.

I stop outside the house and my heart thuds heavily as I think about what I am doing.

Should I do this?

I ask my wolf. My number one confidant. The part of me that I have learned to embrace. I listen to the beating of my heart as I wait for a response. I already know what my wolf is going to say. I know that my wolf will be on the same page as me.

Anything to get these fuckers.
