Chapter 122 

Lola’s POV 

Serena’s breathing quickened as we all stared at her in shock. I had never seen the stoic witch get shocked, not to talk to her getting into a panic mode. Adrian was the first one to break out of the trance and he stood up from where he was sitting to lead Serena into a chair. 

As he led her from me, I followed their movement with my eyes and I couldn’t shake off the green eyed monster that reared its ugly head at the sight of my mate touching another woman that is not me. 

Get a f**king grip, Lola. I chastised myself and had a mini pep talk with Jasmine about my mate being mine and mine alone. “I promise you that you’re the only one I ever want to touch in an intimate way“, Adrian’s voice rang in my head and I was able to anchor myself back into the present. 

I chalked my mini episode to the encounter I had with Serena’s alleged sister and assured myself that no one is taking my man from me before I went over to where Serena was seated, still hyperventilating. 

“You need to take deep breaths“, I told her as I held her hands in mine and gently rubbed reassuring circles over them, “it’s fine, it’s fine. You’re fine“, I kept whispering to her till the tremors racking her b*dy finally stopped and she was breathing normally. 

“Are you sure that you saw Alysia?” She asked me with urgency in her voice and I slowly nodded my head, wondering what is actually happening and why she seemed so shocked to hear about her sister. 

“We’re fucked“, she whispered but we all heard her anyways. I looked around the room and Lyla and Avianca wore matching looks of shock

on their faces. If we were not discussing a serious matter, I’d have laughed. 

“You need to tell us what’s going on, Serena“, Adrian said to her gently. She looked at me and I nodded at her. “Before I can actually go on with my own side of the story. We need to know exactly who Alysia is“. 

At my words, she nodded before she spoke again, “you’re right. You’re right. I need to know where I went wrong“, she said while nodding her head. It was like she was trying to comfort herself. 

A cup of water was passed to her and I sent Avianca a grateful smile which she returned with one of her own: Serena downed the water in a go and took a deep breath before she started speaking. 

“Alysia was my twin before I took her life“, she said and I became light headed. “But I saw her and she did not look dead to me at all“, I said. 

“Let me start from the beginning“, she said and her eyes glazed over like she was in a trance. 

“Alysia and I were born to our mother, Leticia, who happened to be the most powerful witch in our coven. We were pampered and highly respected as twins were very revered and regarded the highest gifts that can be bestowed onto a coven by the gods. Mother would tell us that we were going to be great witches and that we’d be the best in the whole of the kingdom“, she said. 

“Alysia had always basked in the attention we received everytime in the coven, I was the shy and quiet one while she gained the hearts of the elders with her wits and outgoing behaviour“. 

“The problem started when we turned 18“, she said and then paused. The room was so silent that if a pin had dropped, it would have caused a hell of a noise. It was almost like we all held our breaths while we

waited for her to speak. Her eyes were unfocused and they shone with unshed tears. 

“We were supposed to grow into our powers fully but the unexpected happened and that was where our problems began“, she breathed out, almost as if it physically pained her to talk about it. 

“Let me guess“, Lyla spoke up, “you got the powers while your sister didn’t get any, which made her bitter and she tried to kill you“, she said and we all turned to give her a nasty look and she tried to make herself smaller in her chair, which turned out to be a very silly move because her protruding stomach couldn’t be hidden. 

“I had my powers first and contrary to what everyone thought, I was a very powerful witch, almost as powerful as my mother was and my mother was the most powerful in our coven. When it was time for Alysia to get her power, nothing happened and that just have left a bad taste in her mouth“. 

She breathed in and a cup of water appeared in front of her. She took the cup and downed half of its content. She looked at the source of the water and smiled slightly at her in appreciation. Avianca nodded in acknowledgement and went back to her seat. 

Moon goddess bless her soul. 

She continued after a while. “While we still hopeful that she would get her powers by the time she was 21, Alysia became bitter about not getting her powers before me“. 

Yeah, I totally believed that. She looked like the type that would throw tantrum over the littlest things. 

“She refused to talk to me because she believed that I stole her powers. The attention of the coven elders shifted from her to me and she became a shell of her former self. She withdrew herself from everyone

and everything. Even mother could not get her to come out of her room, she just went silent on everyone. 

“After a week or two of sulking, she finally came out of her hiding and was chipper once again which I found very strange. She avoided me completely but went about the village, acting like nothing happened. One night, I decided to enter her room and that was when I found out that she was using black magic“, she said and we all gaped at her in shock. 

Everyb*dy knew that a witch caught using black magic in a coven is always killed with a stake dipped in poison. 

“I confronted her but she begged me and promised to stop. She cried and pleaded with me not to tell mother about it. Her sob story was that she wanted to use it as a coping mechanism for not getting her power but she’s realized her mistake. I believed her and refrained from telling mother about it“. 

“Day in, day out, she kept changing but I never caught her using black magic again so I assumed she actually stopped using the black magic“. 

“On her 21st birthday, she showed her true colour. While mother and the elders were preparing the rituals to see if she’s gotten her powers, she did the unthinkable“. Her tears were falling freely at that point and we all hung onto her every word while also dreading her next words. 

“She killed Mother in front of everyone“.
