THE LIBATION

CHAPTER TWELVE

She ran her fingers through the books stacked up on the shelf, as she hummed a song in her head and nodded slowly to it.

"Okay! This should be it." She said, pulling out a black book from the shelf and carefully setting up the others in place. Looking down at the cover, she walked to the chair and sat down. She tilted her head, as she opened the first page and frowned. Her eyes moved sideways in it's socket, scanning the pages religiously. She muttered some words, moving her index fingers across them and brought out a jotter and pen to note them down.

"Hey."

She flinched. "Hey." And gave out a reluctant smile.

"Reading right? Yeah, so what're you reading cause you seem so serious in it." Tony asked scratching his hair.

"A book." Brielle looked down at the book.

Tony turned the cover of the book and smiled. "Witchcrafts through the ages: Myths and Realities, huh?" Brielle nodded slowly still looking up at him. "Into witches?"

"Well." She shrugged. "A witch haunter." She could see the surprised look on Tony's face when he raised his brows and widened his eyes.

"So you do believe in the existence of witches?" He smiled, pulling out a chair and sat beside her.

"Yeah. They do exist. They are real. Don't you think so?"

"Emmm....I don't believe in things like this though."

"Hmmmm." She nodded slowly and went back to reading her book. Tony sat still taking glances at her.

"So...emmm....will you be....emmm....free tonight?" Brielle feigned her hearing, as she kept on taking notes of some words.

"Brielle?"

"Hmmmm?" She looked at him. "Were you talking to me?"

"Yeah. I asked if you would be free....tonight?" He exhaled deeply.

"What do you wanna do?"

"Nothing, just wanna spend some time with you, is it a crime?"

Brielle studied his face while she bit the lower end of her pencil. "Okay?"

Tony smiled. "I'll pick you up by six then."

"Hmmmm.... you're so excited." She chuckled.

"Yes. I mean why won't I. Been looking for a way to take you out, and I finally did."

She giggled. "Yeah you did." Tony held his gaze with Brielle, her cute smile making him adjust himself as he swallowed hard. He felt something rising up in his. He sure didn't know what that was, but all he knew was that he really wants to act accordingly to whatever was in him. He saw himself bending low and tilting his head to kiss Brielle. He held her neck as he kissed her softly. Brielle's eyes widened when Tony covered her lips with his'. She sure wasn't expecting that, not now, not never. Was that the reason he wanted to take her out tonight? She asked herself as she returned the kiss slowly and surprisingly back to Tony. She held his chin as she curved her lips to his.

"Emm...."

"I'm sorry if that was too sudden." Tony said when Brielle broke off from the kiss.

"No it's fine, it fine." She breathed out and covered the book she was reading. She took her notebook and placed it inside her bag, as she stood up and walked to return the library's book. She turned to Tony. "See you by six." She said and left. Tony relaxed on the chair, his arms wide spread, so as his leg, smiling to himself.

"Wow!" He said watching Brielle go down the stairs.

"Hey baby!" Raven tipped her toe and kissed Draven.

He raised his brows. "Hey." Raven turned and frowned when she saw Elara, turning Draven's attention to her also. Elara rolled her eyes and walked down the corridor.

"Goodnight." Draven said and was about going when Raven held his upper arm.

"Don't tell me you wanna chase her?" Raven asked disgustingly.

"Later alright." Draven kissed her cheek and ran after Elara.

"Draven!.... Draven!!.... Draven!!!...." Raven called after him as she stomped her feet hard on the ground. "I hate that b***h!" She said in-between her teeth, looking at the corridor that Draven just ran through.

"It's high time you put that asshole in her place, or you watch her take Draven from you." Venessa whispered to her ear.

Raven raised her head and turned to look at her. "Yeah that's true." She gave a lopsided grin.

"You know Draven isn't your boyfriend, so stop chasing after him." Sasha said. Raven and Venessa turned and gave her a stern look which made her reel back. "What?" She shrugged. "Don't pretend that you don't know he's sleeping around." She crossed her arm across her chest and c****d her hips.

"Then why make it obvious?" Venessa was almost getting angry.

"Calm down. I'm just saying she should get Draven closer to her as fast as possible to prevent him from going to Elara or other girls. He's single....so you know, he definitely wanna do things."

Raven sighed. "Yeah, Sasha's right. I got to make him closer to me. I got to make him fall in love with me."

"Why stressing yourself about him falling in love with you when you have me." Venessa gently turned her chin to face her. Her eyes went down her lips as she bent low and kissed her slowly.

"I know, but I also need Draven. I love him." Raven replied after she broke off from the kiss and left the two girls looking at each other.

"Arrggggghhhhhh!!...." Venessa groaned.

"She still wants Draven, baby and there's nothing you're gonna do about that." Sasha said, walking closer to her and kissed her on the lips. "We're in the room." She winked at her smiling and left Venessa swearing at herself.

"Okay....let's call it a night." Prudence yawned as she closed her book and stood up from the chair. She walked to her bed and climbed on it, covering herself with the duvet. Few minutes after sleeping off, she felt something crawling at her legs. She wiggled it off and turned. It came again, moving inside of her. She turned and faced up, moaning and moving her body up and down slowly. She felt her gown move up, exposing her shinning tighs. She groaned when she felt something lick through her thigh then moving to her innermost.

She smiled, her eyes still closed. "Maltida, is that you? You should have told me you were coming in tonight, or you wanted to surprise me?" She waited for a response, and frowned when she got none after some few minutes.

"Maltida, come on, talk to me." She smiled again and groaned. "Maltida, are you there? Maltida?.... Maltida??.... Maltida??"

"Elara..." Draven exhaled when he got hold of her. "Stop making me chase after you, girl." He said in between his teeth.

"What is it?" Elara asked facing him aggressively.

"Oops, calm down, girl." Draven moved his head back. "Why have you been ignoring me?" He said bending low and looking through her eyes.

"I don't get. Do we have anything?"

"Elara, c'mon." He moved closer to her. "I can't stop thinking about you ever since that—"

"That was a mistake Draven, and it's not gonna ever....I mean ever repeat itself." She moved back.

"Ever? Not until you want it again." He curved the corner of his lips into a smile that made Elara's stomach twitch. He stood tall, watching down at Elara swimming In her thoughts of how he made her feel the other night. "Yeah, I know.... you're thinking about it." His smile widened. Elara ignored him and walked passed him.

"Don't you get it, I love you girl. I do."

"Or you just wanna treat me like Raven?"

He moved his head back and paused. "No."

Elara scoffed. "And it took you almost a minute to reply."

"Elara wait...."

"Oops...! Guess I need her for the night." Maltida said as she dragged Elara and they both went down the stairs.

"Thank you so much. How did you know I needed help?" Elara asked as they both laughed.

"I don't know. I just heard his voice when I came up and decided to check who it was, and I found you. I just knew you weren't comfortable so, that's where Maltida comes in." She said and they laughed.

"So what about Prudence?"

"I left in her room hours ago, she was reading though."

Prudence laid on the bed, face up, arms wide spread, eyes closed. She was conscious of what was going on in her body, but couldn't stop it. She tried opening her eyes, but they were glued, she moved her body to jerk it up, but still same as her eyes. She just laid still, receiving what ever was going on in her body. She tried turning, but still couldn't.

"Who's there?" She asked in fear, trying to move her body.

"Who's there?" A familiar voice asked, bringing his face up, as he stroke her breast with his tongue, causing Prudence to moan softly. She shook in fear as she recognized the voice.

"Mr....Mr...Mr....Alberto?" Her voice came out in a shaky whisper.

"Oh baby, yeah it's Mr....Mr....Mr....Alberto." He mimicked her and laughed, coming up more closer to her, he kissed her and squeezed her breast.

"Don't you dare touch me. Get off me you bastard!"

"And I did and I'm gonna do that again." He said putting his fingers inside of her, which made her cry out.

"Mr Alberto...." She cried.

"You think you could scare me with spiders? Yeah, I know you got me there, but I came back. How I wished I knew this before time, I would have done it. I didn't know I could have my way into you by doing this, you actually taught me alot." He smiled thrusting his fingers in and out. "It seems you were prepared, cause you aren't even putting on any pant. I like that and I love you for that." He got hold of her breast and caressed with tenderly.

"I never knew your tatas were this round and firm. It's so attractive to see and touch."

"f**k you Mr Alberto." Prudence shouted admist tears.

"Ooh f**k me....I understand that language, you want me to f**k you right?" He smiled, pulling down his trousers and exposing his big, erected manhood. "Hmmmmmmm." He moved his head back and he stroke his manhood.

Alberto laid on the tub, his head resting on it as he held his phone which showed a photo of Prudence. He brought the photo close to his p***s and slowly made it touch her lips. He groaned when he felt her mouth on his p***s.

"I'm jealous, cause I know your boyfriend is enjoying what I'm enjoying right now." He raised her, bringing her head to his down area. He opened her mouth and placed it in his manhood.

"No...no...no...no...noooooo."

"Why no? C'mon you do this all the time, so don't be shy." He smiled and lowered her mouth to his manhood. "Hmmmmm, good girl." He smiled as Prudence sucked his manhood. He felt so relieved and alive as Prudence kept on pleasuring him. He dragged her by the hair and made her open her eyes to see him.

"Please.... please, don't this." Tears stroke down her eyes as she begged with shaky voice.

"You did this to me too, don't you remember?"

"It wasn't this way."

He moved his manhood over her picture, moaning quietly, moving slowly on the bath tub.

"Then which way?" His voice rose as he pushed her forcefully to the bed. "Which way, huh?" He asked as he slipped his p***s into her core and pushed and pulled. Prudence moved in rhythm of his movement as she cried out loud.

"You can cry out, no one's gonna hear you." He smiled.

He shook his erected manhood vigorously, as he moaned out. He opened his eyes and widened them to look around to know if Sarah heard him. He used his palm to cover his mouth and groaned in them. Prudence made him feel young and he liked that. He thought as he smiled.

Raven bit her lips as she watched from the end of her bed how Venessa and Sasha played romantically with each other. She shaked her legs uncontrollably, her breathe become fast, she tapped her thighs as she bit her finger nails. She knew she shouldn't have been harsh on Venessa, now she can't join them. She slowly took her finger down into her trousers, made it pass her pant and Into her c**t. She moaned softly as she rubbed the inside of her. Venessa stopped when she heard Raven moaning. She looked at Sasha and turned back to Raven who moaned slowly staring at Venessa.

Venessa tilted her head and smiled a her, signaling her to come over. Raven understood that and didn't hesitate to undress and run over to them. The three girls laughed and slapped each others breast and kissing each other. Venessa made her fingers caressed Raven's c**t, while Sasha gripped her breast angrily, making Raven groan loudly.

"I did more than your boyfriend, right?" Mr Alberto smiled as he wore his trouser. "No need to mention, I know I did." He zipped up. "Now let me make three things clear to you, one, never you attack me again, two, no one should know about this, oh you can't even tell, cause you started the game first, and three, stay clear off your boyfriend, unless—" He stroke her core. "This would happen again. I know I've never seen you around with any guy in the school, and I don't want to. And I'll find out if you're having an affair and definitely won't hesitate to make your life unbearable. Not just only this, with other things too. Your partner might likely get affected." He smiled and disappeared.

He breathed out deeply, and rested his head on the bath tub. He raised his lower body to put on his trouser. Alberto brought up his phone and smiled at the mess he made. His smile widened when he saw Prudence's beautiful face amidst the fluids on his screen.

"Hmmmmmm." He breathed out.

"Honey?" He jumped up when he heard Sarah's voice.

"Are you in there?" He quickly turned on the water.

"Yes." He shouted from the bathroom.

"Okay. But don't you think you've been in there for a while now?"

"I'm done. I'll be out now. I'll be with you soon, okay?" He folded his lips into a thin line and stretched his ears to know if she would say anything. When he waited and she didn't respond, he breathed out with his mouth.

Elara and Brielle chatted and laughed as they walked to the bathroom.

"Yeah. I couldn't even believe it." Brielle said smiling sheepishly.

"So....you guys did it?" Elara turned shinning her teeth at her friend.

"Elara?" She nudged at her with her shoulders, making Elara moved sideways playfully. Brielle stared at the floor, bitting her fingers as she smiled.

"Okay, I guess that's much already. From your visage expression, you guys did it. Brielle?" Elara dragged her with her shoulders.

"Yeah. But...it was just a kiss, nothing much."

Elara looked around and turned back to Brielle. She bent low to her ear and whispered. "So there wasn't anything as s*x?"

Brielle freed herself from Elara's hold. "No." She smiled. "Speaking of me having s*x, you haven't done that with Nathan."

"Emm...yeah. I just don't wanna do it that's all."

"Same as me too. I just think I'm not really ready for that now."

"Birds of same feather....?" Elara smiled as she opened the bathroom door and walked in.

"Flock together...!" They said aloud, laughing together.

Elara entered the other door leading to the main toilet, while Brielle stood dressing her hair at the mirror. It didn't take up to minutes when Elara came out, dusting her skirt. She went to meet Brielle at the table and looked at the mirror to also dress herself properly. Brielle slowed down with what she was doing, and lifted her eyes to Elara's reflection. Her expression was filled with shock when she saw Elara's reflection darkened. She turned and looked at her with a surprised look.

"Oh, my God!" Elara flinched back. "What's that. Jesus Christ."

Brielle stood looking at Elara with a confused look. She turned back to the mirror and the dark reflection was still there.

"Didn't you see that?" Elara asked almost crying. "I hate that look, Brielle. Please take me out of this place, please."

Brielle looked at her, moving slowly to her. She held her wrist and led her out, still looking at the dark reflection in the mirror. She was completely speechless and confused about what was going on.

"Wait, our bags." Elara reminded her. Brielle went back and picked up their bags they left on the table. She turned and the dark reflection was still there. It grew darker and scary the more she looked at it. She turned immediately and left.

"Why're you acting that way?"

"Not... nothing. Just surprised."

"Didn't you see that stuff in the mirror?"

"I...I saw it. I was as surprised as you."

"I definitely don't know what's that. I can't get that hideous image out of my head." Elara cried out, moving close to Brielle. Brielle took her in and hugged her.

Elara walked alone on the street, thinking about how her reflection nearly runined her life. But she smiled and took it in immediately when she remembered how good she was at confusing Brielle. Elara had noticed Brielle staring at her reflection in the mirror, and she knew she had to act fast before Agatha's superstitions about her become true. She saw the expression on Brielle's face when she turned to look at the dark reflection. For a second, Brielle would have concluded her friend was a witch, and for another, she would have absolutely doubted that by the way Elara acted.

"Stupid reflection. Can you just stop this." She cursed with her nose and stomped her feet on the ground. She knew she had won Brielle's heart by doing that. Now she would have every reason to tell Agatha that she wasn't a witch. Elara's thought spunned with her when she felt someone dragging her to the other side of the road. She brushed her hair back with her fingers and looked up at the person. Her frown softened when she saw Nathan smiling down at her. She slapped his chest and breathed out.

"God, you scared the hell outta me. Don't do that next time." She pushed her hair to the back of her ear. "And besides, what are you doing here?" She looked around the woods.

"Was going out with the guys, then luckily I saw you. It's a frat party tonight." He widened his arm. "It's gonna be fun. Super fun. So now I wanna take you along with me." Nathan smiled and kissed her forehead.

"Emmm....I don't....."

"Shhhh....you will."

"Yeah I know. You can invite Brielle too, I know she'll love it."

"Huh?"

"And that new guy I've been seeing her walk with lately." He bent and whispered to her. "Come on tell me yes. It's just for this night." He made a baby face at her.

"Alright."

"Yes, that's why I love you. I'll come pick you up—"

"No...no....no. Don't."

"You never allow me come to your place, why?"

"I told you, my dad is very brutal. I'll use that word." She feigned her smile.

Nathan nodded slowly trying to accept what she said. "Okay, then. I'll call you when I'm ready then."

"Yeah sure." She tiped her toe and kissed him. Nathan saw that as an opportunity and grabbed her so that ber legs hung on his waist. "Idiot." She laughed and Nathan bent his head and kissed her. He moved back a little and placed her on one of the thick branch on the tree. Elara gasped when he suckled her neck.

"Oh, come on!" Pete said breaking a thin branch and throwing it at them.

"The frat party is hours from now, can't you two just be a little patient?" Dave said.

"Well, duty calls." Nathan laughed and kissed her.

"Okay, I'll get going then." She smiled and buttoned her shirt.

"Just imagine, you nearly undressed her." Pete mocked.
