Chapter 59


    ‘This is impossible.’ My father says, standing up. This can’t be happening. Magic has been long gone


    and forbidden for many years. We only found out that a few witches still exist when you had the terrible


    fever, Magnus.’


    ‘Nina, you and your sister cannot experiment with this. You are already in danger. If everyone finds out,


    you are cursed and that it affects Magnus and now to know you can cast magic. It will cause mass


    panic. Everyone will hunt you and May down. The only way to keep the secret safe is to not cast magic


    at all.’ My mother says.


    I know how much being able to cast spells meant to Nina. She was trying hard to hold back any tears


    and hid her feelings from everyone.


    We need to figure out how this is even possible.’ Dad says.


    We all look at Leon and Amelia. Leon shrugs his shoulders.


    I’m in just as much shock as you all are. I swear I do not know.’ He says, then looks at Amelia, who has


    the look of guilt written all over her face. ‘Amelia?’ Leon says.


    Well, you see. There is something I have told no one before. I didn’t really see the point until now.’ She


    takes a deep breath. ‘My grandma was a witch.’


    ‘What?’ Everyone shouts in shock.


    ‘My grandfather was a wolf. It turned out my grandmother was a witch. They knew it wasn’t right, and it


    was unheard of, a witch and a wolf being fated mates. They tried hard to stay away from each other,


    but found it impossible. My mother and another child were born to them. Neither of them could wield


    magic, but both got their wolves at eighteen. My mother had me, and I never could wield magic. We all


    figured the wolf gene must have been stronger and having two generations without magic thought it


    would never happen to future generations. Now it seems it happened… two generationster. Nina and


    May are half-witch, half-wolf.’


    We all look at one another, taking it all in.


    ‘None of this information is to leave this room. Nina, I will leave it to you to tell May she is to no longer


    cast magic.’ My dad says.


    Nina stands up and runs up the stairs without saying a word, I know she is upset.


    There’s something else you and mum need to know, dad.’ I say.


    What’s that?


    Moss… is dead. I killed him. He shifted and came at me, intending to kill me. He would have taken


    Nina back.


    “You did what you had to do to protect our pack members. I’m sure the wolf council will understand.’


    “That’s not all. His mother was there. She said, “You will pay for this. I should have killed your mother


    long ago and now I will kill you 100th You must know who she is?’


    Mum and dad give each other a worried look.


    Did you see her woll? Any of their wolves? What colour were they?’ she asks panicked,


    Moos’t wolf was brown with grey ears and a grey tail and when his mother shifted, she was small


    brown and scruffy with a grey patch on her side


    ‘Vanessa’ tum and dad, say together in shock My dad looks at Leon


    Have double the warriors at each post in case Vanessa tries to attack us’


    I dont w


    Vanessa would be capable of much fatini on her own, though? 1 say


    Don’t underestimate tio bon Knowing Vanessa she will have more rogues somewhere Mum says


    I leave the utile and go up to my 1006 May


    medioom door is ajar I can hear Nina informing May that they are both banned from


    “Tus is bountaut Way bayu I contre to iny roarn and close the door


    I fall backwards onto my bed and stare up at the roof.


    After a while, there was a knock at my door. It’s May..


    ‘Um hey, so I was wondering. Well, Nina was wondering if she could borrow the spell book from you…


    please?’


    ‘She knows you are both banned from casting magic and spells. I can’t loan either of you the book.


    Even I shouldn’t have the book.’


    ‘Please Magnus, at least let her borrow it just for tonight?’


    I sigh and walk over to my school bag and unzip it and take the spell book out.


    ‘I will give it to her, though.’


    “Okay.’ She smiles and follows me.


    | stop and face May.


    ‘Alone. ‘I say.


    “Oh… I’ll just be going to my room then.’ She says, annoyed.


    I knock on Nina’s door. It surprised her to see me, but she sees I’m holding the book in my arms.


    ‘Come in.’ she says, stepping aside.


    I hand her the book, but I don’t let go. ‘Promise me you won’t get caught casting magic?’


    I’ll try my best to not get caught.’


    ‘That’s not really a promise, Nina…’


    I suggest you study as much as you can tonight from the book because I’m only letting you borrow it for


    tonight.’


    ‘One night?’ she protests.


    ‘I’m not risking you being exiled or hunted down, Nina. If you need to study the book in the future, then


    we will do it together so I can at least keep a watch out for anyone snooping around.’


    She looks at the spell book in thought and looks up at me and nods.


    ‘Deal


    ‘Tomorrow is your wolf ceremony, it’s going to be a busy day. Read what you can now and get some


    sleep. You will need all the energy you can get for your first shift tomorrow night.’ I smile.


    She walks me to her door and closes it behind me. My wolf wants to shift and go for a run. He is very


    restless all night. I struggle to gel any sleep Everyone is having breakfast. I’m surprised to see


    This material belongs to N?velDrama.Org.


    Pipsqueak at the table but then remember she is Zak’s mate, so it’ s only natural she lives in the


    packhouse with him now. We give each other a smile and a wave. Zak enters the dining room with a


    growl and pulls Pipsqueak from her chair


    Mine’ He growie, ring at me


    Gee, 16 it normal for the male bond to make you so possessive? | ask.


    Sule is ‘Miaughe


    ‘The mute band is a funny thing to experience’ Seuismiles at Mia


    It’s the most magical feeling Mum sayo ‘e like static electricity when you touch each other You can’t


    stop thinking about your male and years to be with them every second of the day you feel broken and


    empty whenever you are apart And let’s not forget the


    aind blowing kes you have ‘Munughs


    ‘Yeah, exciting.’ Nina mumbles.


    “Let’s hope there is no drama’s this time, unlike Zak’s wolf ceremony where Nina had been kidnapped.’


    Mum says with a nervousugh. Nina leaves the table as soon as she finishes breakfast. She runs


    upstairs and runs back down, now wearing a backpack.


    I’ll be back in time for the ceremony.’ She yells.


    ‘Okay sweetheart. Leon says.


    I decide to sneak out and follow her. She ends up by theke and pulls the spell book out.


    ‘Aqua Bedew.’ She says, twirling her wand. I watch as all the wateres together like a tornado. All


    the water from theke is gone and continues to swirl up in the air.


    ‘Cool.’ I say, standing behind her. She flinches in fright and the water from theke drops like a giant


    blob. The impact causes water to ssh onto us


    She res at me, drenched in water.
