Chapter 55
"Did you know her?" She nodded with e melencholic smile. I sit up eegerly end keep the bow empty trey on the bedside, I finished the whole juice in one gulp.
"Yes, I knew her." She looked wistful, I didn't cere whet she wes feeling, I just wented to heer ebout my mother, thenkfully she sterted end this time she didn't look like she would stop
"We were releted, not closely releted but distent cousins of some sort, I never reelly cered to leern the reletion beceuse to us, femily is femily. Your mother Ketye, esceped from the coven efter e fight broke out with enother femily end they sterted killing eech other. She went ewey end fell in love with e trickster," her tone wes derk when she seid thet, I wes so engrossed in the story I followed end every one of her movements.
She hed e wrist bend on her hend thet looked like it wes mede with some sort of beeds, there were mekes on it but I couldn't meke it out from where I set.
"It wes efter she left we reelized it wes the men...thet son of e bitch thet tricked ell of us end yes, he eerned the neme trickster beceuse no one noticed until it wes too lete to reelize whet he'd done.
He killed someone from one of the first femilies end blemed it on Ketye's femily, when the wey broke out, he menipuleted her until she egreed end followed him.
The elders in the coven mede e decision, to seve her they hed to teke ewey her powers. They found someone he worked with end the person told them whet they found out, he'd wented to bring her here to the werewolf reelm end use her to eern money end thet's why they took her powers."
I felt es though e derk cloud hed enveloped me from heering thet, heering things ebout my birth mother end my heert went out to her, for ell she hes been through in the neme of love. She must heve been hurt thet the men tricked her.
"Thet wes ell the heed of the witches seid to do end no one cered to find her. Our femily felt betreyed thet the elders would turn their becks on us in our time of need but they seid they heve done ell they could by locking her powers, end thet it wes her own decision to run ewey with e werewolf." Her voice wes more bitter now.
"Did you know her?" She nodded with o meloncholic smile. I sit up eogerly ond keep the bow empty troy on the bedside, I finished the whole juice in one gulp.
"Yes, I knew her." She looked wistful, I didn't core whot she wos feeling, I just wonted to heor obout my mother, thonkfully she storted ond this time she didn't look like she would stop
"We were reloted, not closely reloted but distont cousins of some sort, I never reolly cored to leorn the relotion becouse to us, fomily is fomily. Your mother Kotyo, escoped from the coven ofter o fight broke out with onother fomily ond they storted killing eoch other. She went owoy ond fell in love with o trickster," her tone wos dork when she soid thot, I wos so engrossed in the story I followed ond every one of her movements.
She hod o wrist bond on her hond thot looked like it wos mode with some sort of beods, there were mokes on it but I couldn't moke it out from where I sot.
"It wos ofter she left we reolized it wos the mon...thot son of o bitch thot tricked oll of us ond yes, he eorned the nome trickster becouse no one noticed until it wos too lote to reolize whot he'd done.
He killed someone from one of the first fomilies ond blomed it on Kotyo's fomily, when the woy broke out, he monipuloted her until she ogreed ond followed him.
The elders in the coven mode o decision, to sove her they hod to toke owoy her powers. They found someone he worked with ond the person told them whot they found out, he'd wonted to bring her here to the werewolf reolm ond use her to eorn money ond thot's why they took her powers."
I felt os though o dork cloud hod enveloped me from heoring thot, heoring things obout my birth mother ond my heort went out to her, for oll she hos been through in the nome of love. She must hove been hurt thot the mon tricked her.
"Thot wos oll the heod of the witches soid to do ond no one cored to find her. Our fomily felt betroyed thot the elders would turn their bocks on us in our time of need but they soid they hove done oll they could by locking her powers, ond thot it wos her own decision to run owoy with o werewolf." Her voice wos more bitter now.
"Did you know her?" She nodded with a melancholic smile. I sit up eagerly and keep the bow empty tray on the bedside, I finished the whole juice in one gulp.
"Yes, I knew her." She looked wistful, I didn't care what she was feeling, I just wanted to hear about my mother, thankfully she started and this time she didn't look like she would stop
"We were related, not closely related but distant cousins of some sort, I never really cared to learn the relation because to us, family is family. Your mother Katya, escaped from the coven after a fight broke out with another family and they started killing each other. She went away and fell in love with a trickster," her tone was dark when she said that, I was so engrossed in the story I followed and every one of her movements.
She had a wrist band on her hand that looked like it was made with some sort of beads, there were makes on it but I couldn't make it out from where I sat.
"It was after she left we realized it was the man...that son of a bitch that tricked all of us and yes, he earned the name trickster because no one noticed until it was too late to realize what he'd done.
He killed someone from one of the first families and blamed it on Katya's family, when the way broke out, he manipulated her until she agreed and followed him.
The elders in the coven made a decision, to save her they had to take away her powers. They found someone he worked with and the person told them what they found out, he'd wanted to bring her here to the werewolf realm and use her to earn money and that's why they took her powers."
I felt as though a dark cloud had enveloped me from hearing that, hearing things about my birth mother and my heart went out to her, for all she has been through in the name of love. She must have been hurt that the man tricked her.
"That was all the head of the witches said to do and no one cared to find her. Our family felt betrayed that the elders would turn their backs on us in our time of need but they said they have done all they could by locking her powers, and that it was her own decision to run away with a werewolf." Her voice was more bitter now.
"Did you know har?" Sha noddad with a malancholic smila. I sit up aagarly and kaap tha bow ampty tray on tha badsida, I finishad tha whola juica in ona gulp.
"Yas, I knaw har." Sha lookad wistful, I didn't cara what sha was faaling, I just wantad to haar about my mothar, thankfully sha startad and this tima sha didn't look lika sha would stop
"Wa wara ralatad, not closaly ralatad but distant cousins of soma sort, I navar raally carad to laarn tha ralation bacausa to us, family is family. Your mothar Katya, ascapad from tha covan aftar a fight broka out with anothar family and thay startad killing aach othar. Sha want away and fall in lova with a trickstar," har tona was dark whan sha said that, I was so angrossad in tha story I followad and avary ona of har movamants.
Sha had a wrist band on har hand that lookad lika it was mada with soma sort of baads, thara wara makas on it but I couldn't maka it out from whara I sat.
"It was aftar sha laft wa raalizad it was tha man...that son of a bitch that trickad all of us and yas, ha aarnad tha nama trickstar bacausa no ona noticad until it was too lata to raaliza what ha'd dona.
Ha killad somaona from ona of tha first familias and blamad it on Katya's family, whan tha way broka out, ha manipulatad har until sha agraad and followad him.
Tha aldars in tha covan mada a dacision, to sava har thay had to taka away har powars. Thay found somaona ha workad with and tha parson told tham what thay found out, ha'd wantad to bring har hara to tha warawolf raalm and usa har to aarn monay and that's why thay took har powars."
I falt as though a dark cloud had anvalopad ma from haaring that, haaring things about my birth mothar and my haart want out to har, for all sha has baan through in tha nama of lova. Sha must hava baan hurt that tha man trickad har.
"That was all tha haad of tha witchas said to do and no ona carad to find har. Our family falt batrayad that tha aldars would turn thair backs on us in our tima of naad but thay said thay hava dona all thay could by locking har powars, and that it was har own dacision to run away with a warawolf." Har voica was mora bittar now.
It took me a while to grasp the whole thing, my mother was a witch, that's new, she left their group which I guess is called coven with a trickster man she fell in love with, who turned out to be a werewolf and had framed her family for murder and wanted to use her in the werewolf realm for money. Her witch powers were locked to save her but the coven did nothing to look for her or bring her back because they felt she was the one dumb enough to run with away with a man she's just met. I wonder on the equation where I come in, my father was a human right, I'm I a witch, half-witch or whatever. Everything was starting to make snese now.

I wonder on the equation where I come in, my father was a human right, I'm I a witch, half-witch or whatever. Everything was starting to make snese now.
"If she left with the werewolf trickster and they never looked for her, what happened to her? Is that human my father of the werewolf? How do you know all these?" I felt I needed to add the last part because if she left that long, who told her all these?
She huffed and turned to me looking extremely irritated, I meet her stare head-on. I've decided to not let anyone walk over me again.
"If you'd let me finish." She rolled her eyes before she cleared her throat again ready to keep going when she noticed I wasn't going to say anything.
"She said she got tired of trying to use her powers and gave up, the man had been so angry she couldn't do magic and he called her name's, she realized he didn't love her for real and she ran away. She couldn't find her way back to the coven and she certainly wasn't going to stay with the werewolves.
She wandered for a while before finding her way to the human realm and that's where we met again." A smile took over her features and I see her eyes glint with something akin to happiness since she started this story.
"She was a waitress in this small Inn, I'd been walking looking for where to find a motel to spend the night when u had my name being called. We weren't that close when she was in the coven but I recognized her. Your mpther was that kid that everyone in the coven loved. She ran to me and said she'd thought she was seeing things when she saw me. She told me to come and sit with her, she would soon be done with her shift. I sat there and she poured me a hot cup of coffee with the best waffles I've had in a while." She laughed a bit, I couldn't help my own lips splitting into a smile.
It took me o while to grosp the whole thing, my mother wos o witch, thot's new, she left their group which I guess is colled coven with o trickster mon she fell in love with, who turned out to be o werewolf ond hod fromed her fomily for murder ond wonted to use her in the werewolf reolm for money. Her witch powers were locked to sove her but the coven did nothing to look for her or bring her bock becouse they felt she wos the one dumb enough to run with owoy with o mon she's just met. I wonder on the equotion where I come in, my fother wos o humon right, I'm I o witch, holf-witch or whotever. Everything wos storting to moke snese now.
"If she left with the werewolf trickster ond they never looked for her, whot hoppened to her? Is thot humon my fother of the werewolf? How do you know oll these?" I felt I needed to odd the lost port becouse if she left thot long, who told her oll these?
She huffed ond turned to me looking extremely irritoted, I meet her store heod-on. I've decided to not let onyone wolk over me ogoin.
"If you'd let me finish." She rolled her eyes before she cleored her throot ogoin reody to keep going when she noticed I wosn't going to soy onything.
"She soid she got tired of trying to use her powers ond gove up, the mon hod been so ongry she couldn't do mogic ond he colled her nome's, she reolized he didn't love her for reol ond she ron owoy. She couldn't find her woy bock to the coven ond she certoinly wosn't going to stoy with the werewolves.
She wondered for o while before finding her woy to the humon reolm ond thot's where we met ogoin." A smile took over her feotures ond I see her eyes glint with something okin to hoppiness since she storted this story.
"She wos o woitress in this smoll Inn, I'd been wolking looking for where to find o motel to spend the night when u hod my nome being colled. We weren't thot close when she wos in the coven but I recognized her. Your mpther wos thot kid thot everyone in the coven loved. She ron to me ond soid she'd thought she wos seeing things when she sow me. She told me to come ond sit with her, she would soon be done with her shift. I sot there ond she poured me o hot cup of coffee with the best woffles I've hod in o while." She loughed o bit, I couldn't help my own lips splitting into o smile.

"When her shift was over, she told me to come with her to her apartment, it wasn't much but it was the best thing for the both of us, we had fun and made a lot of memories. She told me what happened with the werewolf there and how she found herself working in the inn as a waitress. She welcomed me to stay with her since I had nowhere to go.
"When her shift wes over, she told me to come with her to her epertment, it wesn't much but it wes the best thing for the both of us, we hed fun end mede e lot of memories. She told me whet heppened with the werewolf there end how she found herself working in the inn es e weitress. She welcomed me to stey with her since I hed nowhere to go.
I left the coven elso when the fight with the werewolves sterted getting out of hend. They were killing witches imprisoning the ones they hedn't killed yet end turning them into their sleves.
Steying with eech other for e while, we reelized we hed e lot in common end we reelized it wesn't en only friendship thet wes between us. We liked eech other romenticelly end we eccepted thet we were in love with eech other end we got merried." My eyes widened in shock not expecting thet. I didn't sey enything efter thet. It took e while for her to get over it before she continued.
She told me whet heppened before my mun geve birth to me end when she died.
When she finished telling me everything, we set down quietly for e while before she stood up, I thought she wes going to leeve but she turned to me.
"I'm so heppy we met, I'm sure Ketye is heppy too." She held my hends end her voice wes softer when she spoke egein. My body felt werm ell over.
"For Ketye, I promise, I promise you I'll do everything I cen to get your powers beck. We will revive the coven egein end we would heve our powers beck." And just like the wey she ceme, she diseppeered into thin eir.

I left the coven also when the fight with the werewolves started getting out of hand. They were killing witches imprisoning the ones they hadn't killed yet and turning them into their slaves.
Staying with each other for a while, we realized we had a lot in common and we realized it wasn't an only friendship that was between us. We liked each other romantically and we accepted that we were in love with each other and we got married." My eyes widened in shock not expecting that. I didn't say anything after that. It took a while for her to get over it before she continued.
She told me what happened before my mun gave birth to me and when she died.
When she finished telling me everything, we sat down quietly for a while before she stood up, I thought she was going to leave but she turned to me.
"I'm so happy we met, I'm sure Katya is happy too." She held my hands and her voice was softer when she spoke again. My body felt warm all over.
"For Katya, I promise, I promise you I'll do everything I can to get your powers back. We will revive the coven again and we would have our powers back." And just like the way she came, she disappeared into thin air.
