Chapter 10


    Queen Elisha res at me. "How did you know?! No one should know!" she spat furiously. Her fist was


    clenching. The ground was also shaking, and the wind blew furiously.


    "Can you control your temper?" I said calmly while rolling my eyes. "Look, I saw your past. I didn''t


    mean to see it, it just shed in my head when you touched me." I exined.


    Her eyes narrowed more. "I don''t believe you. Who are you??!"


    "As I said earlier, I don''t know. All I know is that I am different from everyone else." The ground stopped


    shaking, and the wind came back to normal.


    She sighed and studied me intently. "I can''t even figure you out, which is strange. You smell like a


    werewolf, a vampire, and then a witch. Are you a hybrid or something? Who are your parents?" I was


    stunned.


    Did she mention a hybrid? Am I? I looked at La when she spoke. "You also think she is a hybrid? So


    I am right?"


    Queen Elisha looks at us with a creased forehead. "Get in the car."


    "Where are you taking us?"


    "To my home."


    "No. We don''t want witches to kill us."


    "I''ll be taking you to my other home in the human, not in my Pce. Now, get in."


    I looked at La, then she nodded. Great. I rolled my eyes and got in the car. La took the backseat.


    So I have no choice but to sit beside Queen Elisha.


    "Buckle your seatbelt." I just look at her with a creased forehead. Then she chuckled, "You don''t know


    how to put a seatbelt on?"


    "Stating the obvious, duh," I said, rolling my eyes. Sheughed and used her magic to buckle your


    seatbelt. Cool. Then she starts the engine and drives away from that ce.


    "By the way, you cannot call me by my real name. In the human world, I am Sabrina Smith. What''s your


    name?"


    "Nice name. I am Andrea Caliber." her forehead creased and then smirked. Looks like she knows I am


    lying.


    "And I am La Boehringer."


    "You are a Boehringer? That''s why you look familiar. You look like her..." Sabrina said while nodding


    her head.


    "Who?" La asked, intrigued.


    "She''s Michelle Boehringer, a friend of mine."


    "What?" La said while her forehead creased and eyebrows furrowed together in confusion.


    "She''s also a werewolf, like you." I look at La and right now I can hear her fast heartbeat.


    "Do you have a sister?" she shrugged her shoulders and said, "I don''t know. I remember nothing."


    "Maybe Michelle knows something you don''t know." We nodded and sat in silence. Sabrina turned on


    the radio and music red. The entire ride, I just listened to music. I saw La fall asleep in the back.


    "I know you''re lying about your name," Sabrina mumbled out of the blue. I look at her suspiciously.


    "Alexandria Gregory, isn''t it?" my eyes narrowed, and I clenched my fist tightly. "Don''t worry. I mean no


    harm. I''ll help you get to Tibbertan Mountains, but not so soon." I stare at her in shock.


    "How do you know?" she smirked.


    "As you did earlier when I touched you, I saw your painful past." I sighed. I think it''s the ability of a


    witch.


    ‘Yeah, Alex. But be careful with the Queen. We can''t trust anyone like what your father said, okay?’


    Willow said.


    I know, Willow. But right now, I have no choice but to stick with her. She can help us go through those


    mountains.


    "Strange how I can''t read your mind," Sabrina uttered and nced at me.


    I chuckled and replied, "I block you."


    "Silly girl," she said, andughed.


    "Why are you helping us?" I asked her seriously.


    "Let''s just say, helping you will also help me with something I have been looking for," she said.


    "You also want to go to that mountain, do you? You are looking for answers too, like me?" I asked.


    "Yeah."


    "Your parents also got killed," I mumbled. She grips the steering wheel tightly. She red at me, and I


    chuckled.


    "I''m right then."


    "Shut up," she said through gritted teeth.


    Silence enveloped us. I left it like that. She became all mushy. I closed my eyes and released a long


    breath, then drifted off to sleep.


    ~~~~~


    I woke up at the sound of talking. I slowly flickered my eyes open.


    "Finally, you''re awake," La mumbled. Sabrina was already outside talking to someone. I look outside


    and notice a house in front of us.


    La suddenly became fidgety. I looked at her questioningly. "Are you okay?"


    "The girl... Sabrina talking to is... Michelle." she uttered in a low tone.


    What? I looked at the girl Sabrina was talking to. Sabrina was right. La has a resemnce to the


    woman, Michelle.


    Michelle looked at the car when Sabrina mentioned it to us. I can hear their conversation.


    "La Boehringer?"


    "Yes, do you know her?"


    Michelle didn''t reply and just walked towards the car. La was trembling in her chair. "La, it''s


    okay..." I tried to calm her. "Breathe okay?"


    She nodded and did what I said. "Let''s get out of the car." She nodded.


    I opened the door and got out. La gets out slowly. I saw Michelle stop dead in her tracks while


    staring at La''s eyes widened.


    La also eyed Michelle intently. My gaze fixated on the two while blinking unbelievably. They have a


    resemnce! So La still has rtives? Perhaps her sister?


    "Who are you?" Michelle mumbled slowly, in shock.


    "I-I''m La Boehringer..."


    Michelle creased her forehead. "Who are your parents?"


    "Elizabeth and Matthew," La replied. Michelle''s eyes widened again.


    "They’re also my parents! How old are you?"


    "Hm, 18," La mumbled shyly.


    "Impossible." Michelle shook her head. "Are you my sister?"


    "I... I don''t know..." La said, dumbfounded. "I don''t remember much about my childhood. My memory


    was faint except when I was 6 years old and present."


    "Huh?"


    "Maybe I can help." Sabrina butted in. I wonder how old they are.


    La and Michelle look at Sabrina, who walks closer to them. "Let me touch you both." La nodded


    hesitantly.


    Sabrina brought her two hands up and held La''s and Michelle''s faces. Sabrina closes her eyes and I


    can also feel the energy.


    I just stood there frozen because of what Sabrina saw. I also saw them even though I didn''t touch


    them. This was strange.


    ‘Because she touches you, Alex. Whenever she sees something, you can also see.’ Willow said.


    What? Really? That''s odd.


    The images shed in my head like a monitor. I can''t believe what I saw. I was teary-eyed when I saw


    my parents together with La''s parents. They were best friends who got killed that same day. La


    saw her parents die in front of her like me. La couldn''t remember anything because of the trauma.


    I remember when La was being thrown with me in the barn. I was happy because I''ve got a


    was having a nightmare about her parents. The same thing happened with me, but it''s not too often


    unlike La''s.


    Sabrina released La and Michelle''s faces, then shed them a smile. "You two are siblings."


    Both La and Michelle gasped in shock. "Michelle was living with her grandparents because she


    wanted to live with humans. She doesn''t know her mother gave birth to La. The couple always


    forgets to tell about her sister. Until the day they died in front of La." I saw Michelle''s lips trembling


    and there was a mist in the corner of her eyes. Her heart rate also speeds up in nervousness.


    "La got traumatized by what happened. Because of that, her body became weak and couldn''t shift.


    That''s why she was thrown in the barn with Al... Andrea." Sabrina said while ncing at me.


    "W-Who killed our parents?" Michelle mumbled while tears streamed on her face. Sabrina shook her


    head.


    "I''m sorry, but I can''t see who killed your parents. It''s a blur." Sabrina said sympathetically.


    She''s right. The person who killed my parents was the same who killed La''s parents, and it''s blurred.


    Michelle and La look at each other sadly. "So, you are my sister?" Michelle uttered.


    "Yeah, I guess..." La said awkwardly.


    Michelle heaves a sigh and smiles at La. "Can I hug you?"


    La looks surprised and hesitant. She looked at me for confirmation, and I nodded. I understand why


    she was hesitant. Her whole life, I am the only person she hugs.


    Michelle engulfed La in a tight embrace. "I can''t believe I have a sister," Michelle mumbled in a


    daze.


    I''m happy for La because she still has her sister. Unlike me, I am all alone. Sabrina looks at me


    while smiling faintly. I can feel Sabrina''s weird aura. It''s still weird that I can read her mind, but she can''t


    read mine. I didn''t block her, though.


    Sabrina was also sad. Like me, she''s also alone. Her parents also got killed the same day as my


    parents. It''s a mystery why they killed our parents. Now, I can also feel Sabrina''s sorrow.


    "Let''s go. Mich, you cane with us." Sabrina said when the sisters released their hugs. Michelle


    nodded while smiling at La.


    Sabrina walked towards the car and we followed, then got in. The sisters took the backseat and silence


    enveloped us. I guess they can also feel bad energy surrounding Sabrina.

    The engine started, and Sabrina drove away in silence. No one dared to break the silence, and I looked


    out the window to see houses, cars, and buildings. We were in the city.
