Persefoni
I may not know who is after me. The ancestors? I've not betrayed anyone so they have the wrong person if the message is actually from them but that's not what is bothering me now. What is bothering me is that Gabriel offered that I stay with him, and the fact that I like the idea is really bothering me. I can't get attached to him, I can't even develop feelings for him because feelings make you do stupid things and stupid things lead to death. I can tell him to go ahead and get the cops involved, at the end of the day I'll just send them into a goose chase.I stood up from the bed and walked towards the window. The weather looks fair and bright which is a good sign to any normal human being but as a witch, we read the cloud, we look beyond bright weather and this one above me, this one that am currently staring at isn't good at all. Something bad is about to happen. I may not be able to pin point the exact thing about to happen, because I wasn't aThree years ago2 weeks later"I found her!!!!!!" Gabriella shrieked, disturbing the peace of all those working close to my office."Gabriella... Keep your voice down, you are in an office environment for Christ sake"She covered her mouth with her hand and quietly sat down on the empty chair close to my desk. I stood up and closed the door to my office, I do not want my parents to accidentally hear me discussing about a girl and also how to stop her from getting married to Richard."What do you have for me?" I asked her as I took a seat closest to hers. She brought out a big brown envelope and dropped it on my desk."I have everything you need to know about Susan Blaire" with the way she answered, I can see that she is feeling very proud of herself.I tried to pick up the envelope but she slapped my hand. "You aren't taking that until you tell me what you have in stock for Richard"
Ten years agoI looked out through the window and watched them prepare for the big day. All streets were decorated, loud music filled the surroundings. I watched happy young ladies and men talking in groups, their faces portraying how happy they are and how they are looking forward to the great occasion.Today, all adult witches are being inaugurated into the witches family. Those who want to serve the Oracle begin that journey today. All those who are from twenty years upwards are going to be recognized as full grown witches in the coven."What are you doing there Persefoni? Shouldn't you be out there working with your mates?"I know that voice, I've grown to hate that voice. "I came up here to get some ribbons for decoration""I don't see you selecting ribbons, all I see is your lazy self looking out the window wishing for something that can never be yours"I maybe cursed from birth, but that doesn't mea
GabrielI came back that night to a quiet apartment, I walked to the kitchen to take a cup of water and I met Jennifer packing away some left overs into the refrigerator. She startled when she saw me nearly dropping the plate she was carrying."I didn't hear you come in sir" she rambled with a hand placed on her chest.I opened the fridge and took what I came for "you should pay closer attention to your environment""I'm sorry sir"I ignored her apology "where is Persefoni?""I think she's in her room" she replied nonchalantly, still packing away some leftoversPersefoni is not comfortable with her, and I will not allow her to make Persefoni more uncomfortable with her attitude. "What do you mean by you think? Haven't you been with her in this house since?" I closed in on her, my height towering over her "if you want to keep your job, you'll have to drop this fucking attitude"She
Three years agoIt took me more than two hours to get Gabriella to my house thanks to her constant request to throw up. I dumped her on the bed. Removing her shoes and clothes, I left her in just her under wears. I also dropped an empty bucket on the floor just In case she wants to throw up. I don't want her messing up my floor. Making sure that she's comfortable to an extent, I closed the door. Picking up my car key, I drove back to the club with just one intention which is to see Susan and if possible bring her back home with me.I arrived at the club faster than I did when I was taking Gabriella home. I tipped the bouncer and walked into the club. Looking at the exact pole where I saw my Susan shaking her assets, I found it empty.Grabbing one of the feather girls walking around, I dragged her closer to me so she can hear me amidst the music."I need a VIP booth"She eyed me seductively and indicated that I follow her. I fo
PersefoniI told Gabriel that I will meet him at home, but he refused to leave me alone with a stranger_ his words not mine_ I told him that Logan is an old friend but he still refused to leave me alone with him. I know he has questions for me, just last night I told him that I don't know anybody by the name Logan and today, I'm telling him that the same Logan I claimed not to know is now an old time friend.At the end of the argument between Gabriel and I, he agreed to give us ten minutes while he waits in the car. He told me that the attacker could be anywhere, so he is not taking any chances just because I met an old friend."What is he? Your bodyguard?" Logan asked a little surprised that I have to get his approval before talking to him."He's my boss Logan""Your boss?" Releasing a short laughter, he directed his glare towards Gabriel's car "I didn't know you need to get the approval of your boss before talking to
Gabriel Feeling like I've betrayed Susan by kissing Persefoni, I cleaned my bleeding nose with great force as a form of punishment for kissing her. Someone knocked on my door and I ignored it. The persistent knocking proved that it was my crazy twin sister Gabriella. I walked out of the bathroom to open the door for her. The door opened a little, she pushed her away into my room without her baby Vicky. "What is going on between you and Persefoni?"She asked looking around as if I expecting to see her in my room My balled up fist squeezed the towel that I used in cleaning my nose "that isn't any of your business. And where the hell did you drop your baby?" She waved her hands around "she's sleeping in my room, but that's not the answer to the question I asked you. . . What is going on between you and Persefoni?" "That is none of your fucking business Gabriella, stay out of my fucking business. Shouldn't you be at home w
Three years agoI was in the kitchen, preparing coffee when Gabby walked in looking like shit. I handed her a cup of coffee and she blew me a kiss as she sat down."How are you feeling?" I asked her. Gabby loves her alcohol but I've never seen her this drunk before.Sipping her coffee a little loudly, she shrugged "I feel better than I deserve. When did I get home?"Get home my ass "you mean, when I picked you up?" Remembering the mess she made on my rug is bad enough to sore my moodShe winced "is it that bad? How bad was it?""Bad enough that you wanted to join a stripper on stage" pouring myself a cup of coffee, I turned to glare at her just yesterday, I told you that if we want to fight dirty with Richard, then you must abstain from anything that will lead to scandal then you go off and try that nonsense. Do you know what it would have looked like for you to appear in front of a magazine drunk as fuck and dancing like a damn stripper?She dropp
PersefoniI watched with wide eyes as Gabriel ordered his sister to leave his house. And did he just fire her? I watched as Gabriella cleaned her tears stained face, she gave me a sad smile before picking up her phone which was lying on the table."I'm sorry you had to see us fight like that Persefoni"Well I'm the one who should be sorry for standing here during the fight and making everything awkward thereafter. "It's okay, I'm sure Gabriel will calm down pretty soon, then you both can work things out"Smiling sadly at me, she shook her head "the last time I saw him this angry was three years ago but the anger was directed towards my parents and ever since then, they are yet to amend their broken relationship""I don't know what his relationship with your parents was like before, but one thing I do know is that your relationship with Gabriel is very tight, and he won't destroy it just because of your one mistake"Sniffing, she looked up dabbing tears
