Chapter 40
Okay so according to the book summoning a witch is as simple as calling my dad sorta. I have no actual magic so this might be hard. But made it clear I need a witch here to help me with physical things as he can’t actually show me. But he can tell a witch to show me.
“So according to this, we need a core element that we are looking for. That way the right witch is summoned. What does that mean?” I ask setting the book down now with several sticky notes sticking out with my notes and questions.
“Just mean how strong of the witch you want. The more complex element you use the stronger the witch. And for you, we need a strong witch so use your blood and…” he looks over at the shelves of bottled things. Finding what he wants “that vial over there with the pink ribbon around the neck.” “What is that?” “a vial of my blood I hid here just in case I needed to break a blood spell on me.” “what's that? Should I be worried?” “oh, no blood spells are a witch-on-witch spell. You're not a witch so no worries “ with a wave of his hand he brushes it off.
“Okay, so this vial. That candle the black one with the red writing. Then that small tree over there. Okay, this said red wine but we don’t have red here but we have night blossom will that work!” “that is a stronger wine and the color is almost blood red so it’s perfect. That book was written before the discovery of night blossom wine.” She shrugs. “okay Loki air is a little harder for me to wrap my head around how do I capture air?” smiling he chuckles. “that is a head scratchier but it’s easier than you think. Blow into a jar. Place a cap on it and wala air in a jar.” Shaking my head looking for a jar with a lid. “this also said that the caster is the fifth element what is that?” “you will be the caster so it’s your soul calling out to the witch it’s like a mind link but it’s a call to assist you. The witch best suited to help will receive the message.” Nodding I set the things around a center bowl.
“Okay first pour the wine into the bowl followed by three drops of your blood. Use the candle to light the wine on fire. Pinch a leaf with a bit of dirt mashed together between your fingers in the bowl. Okay take that glass sir stick and sir click wise six times and counterclockwise nine times. Once done place the jar of air in the bowl. You need to let that boil until the flame dies on its own. When that’s done drop three drops of my blood in there. If you do it right a puff of smoke will rise and disappears. Then we just wait.”
Following the instructions, I hold the dropper over the bowl staring at the dropper. Okay once I do this there is no going back. I mean I have already broken several rules my father put in place but this one has a death sentence. Practicing magic is worse than using it. Closing my eyes I squeeze the dropper three times dropping the drops. Opening my eyes I see a tiny puff of smoke rise. Float around me then is gone. “well don’t princess.” “don’t call me that.” I sneer at that nickname, it's now tainted forever. My phone chimed.

Hope you had a fun night. Do tell me did you join in the fun?
My body goes cold as a photo of me from behind, as I enter the puppy mill. The only plus is it’s from the back so it could be anyone but no it was me. Who did this who knows I was there? Thank goodness they don’t know what happened. I mean they wouldn’t ask if they knew right? Deleting it I shoved the phone into my pocket.
“What was that?” “just Sally being stupid “ I shrug. Nope, not talking about shit with this well whatever he is. “how long do we have to wait to see if this worked. I’m tired of being weak and I’m tired of this necklace. I can’t read anything written with what did you say memory emotion feeling fuck I don’t know. What instructions Manuel’s are what I can read and I hate them. Hey and speaking of that would it work on children’s stories?
“go for it but all stories hold some kind of truth and feeling. A memory pulled in to write that sad stuff. Joy for the happy. Those living in the words. Now I do wonder what a desire-fueled story might do. When the witch comes we will have to experiment with what happens when you read things.” “how about no? And I am feeling tired all of a sudden I’m gonna go take a nap.
He nods and starts pacing talking to his wolf excitedly again. I wish I could hear what he’s saying but when he steps back there is no sound unless he yells. Almost like he’s too far away to be heard.
Leaving I head to my room feeling like I am weighted down. Getting to my room I don’t remember if I shut the door or not as I barely make it to my bed before my eyes are closing. Pulling me down into the darkness of sleep.
Opening my eyes I’m screaming in pain as I fly across the room. The taste of my blood coats my tongue as my lip splits open. “you thought you could run away whore yourself out to an alpha and I wouldn’t find you bitch. Well, guess you were wrong. This time you will never see daylight again.”
Butting back my cries I try linking anyone to find it’s blocked my wolf is blocked all I can see is red. Red angry eyes bore into my soul before a heavy door cuts between us closing all light out of the cold wet room I’m laying in. I feel broken and alone. I had happiness for a brief moment. I had love, such love. We created. A pup that is now stuck in this black hole with me. I’m still too early in my pregnancy for anyone to know but me. Once he finds out he will take that love from me too.
