Secrets
Where Am I?
Pulling into a driveway dead tired Crystal looks around. The Victorian house in front of her looks old and abandoned with broken windows, the steps falling in on each other and the door luckily still on its hinges and there is no way she was getting out to explore. Since the place looked abandoned she had no worries of sleeping there for a while and turns the ignition off climbing into the back of the van pulling the curtain as she goes. Wondering why she was even here, but feeling like it was a matter of life or death, not bothering to remove her shoes or anything she climbs into bed and falls swiftly to sleep.
Luke standing on balcony watches the woman pull into his driveway and turning off the van, then climb into the back,” Is that my mate?”
The witch looks at him with a smirk,”Yes, I told you the spell would work, ye of little faith.”
Luke shakes his head, he hates witches and their spells, but under the circumstances what choice did he have. With society changing, women being independent there is no need for them to travel to find their mates and that is if she knows who and what she is. He did notice the thick long black hair like Crystal Gayle's and how alert her eyes were not to mention the color of the sky before a storm.,” We will see if you are right.” He turns away heading indoors to get a drink. Witches, he thought, it is pretty bad when you have to trust a witch not to put a knife in your back,” Where is the potion, the second part of this spell of yours?”
The witch looks at him as if assessing if he is good at his word,” I want half the payment. The woman is here like I said.”
Luke turns to her and nods his head to his right hand man,” Give her half. If the second part doesn’t work or I don’t wake up put a knife in her heart, slowly.”
Glenn, the right hand man, reaches into his back pocket pulling out the envelope with the promised payment handing it to the hag. He wasn’t happy when the hag gave Luke the vial,” Boss, I don’t like this.”
Luke looks at him straight in the eye,” Remember, if I don’t wake up kill her, slowly and painfully.” Luke downs the foul stuff following it with his drink, man that was some awful s**t. He sits down in the closest chair possible before the stuff kicks in.
The witch smiles at him,” Don’t worry, nothing will happen. It is only going to allow you to walk into her dreams from there is up to you.”
