Hybrid Lord's Human Bride

RETURN TO HOME PART-2

RIHANA'S POINT OF VIEW-

After one hour Lola came to my room, she asked me if I was ready for leaving or not and in case I was not ready I could take rest for the day and then I could start my journey from tomorrow but I wanted to go my home as soon as possible, almost one week I was away from my home. So, I insisted Lola that I wanted to go home as fast as possible and if she made the arrangements quickly I would be very grateful. 

Lola accompanied me to a room which was dark and was lit up by few candles, the room looks creepy and I was feeling a little bit scared but Lola assured me that there was nothing to fear and it was actually the witch's secret room for performing the rituals, she also told me that she personally made it because it was a vampire coven but when she married Alistair, Alistair fulfilled her wish and gave her permission to make a witch's secret room. 

She sounded so much happy and she even told me that she felt lucky to have a mate like Alistair.

I asked her "What should I do in this room?"

Lola said to me "I will make a potion here and you will drink it."

"Why?" I asked her.

"Do you have any passport or visa with you?" she asked me.

"No," I replied to her.

"That's why you need the potion." She said.

"Will that potion help me to make a fake passport or visa?" I asked her.

"I do not want to go to jail," I said to her again.

She burst into laughter and after few minutes she managed to control herself and said to me "No silly, It will not help you to pop up any fake passport or visa, Just wait and watch what I will do next."

After few minutes the door open and a lady came to the room, Lola introduced me to her and  said to me "Rihana meet Monica, she is a vampire servant in this coven, she will help us."

"How ?" I asked Lola.

"Have some patience," Lola said to me.

Then she extend her hand towards Monica and ordered Monica " Monica give me one of your hair strands."

Monica immediately obliged her order and after that Lola mixed few liquids in a glass jar and then added Monica's hair strand in the liquid mixture and the hair strand dissolved in the liquid mixture and Lola poured the liquid into a wine glass and handed me the glass.

I took the glass hesitantly and asked her "What will I do ?"

"Drink it," Lola said to me.

"Yuck, no, I do not want to," I responded immediately.

"Hey trust me, it will help you," Lola said.

"I do not want to drink a potion in which a hair strand is dissolved, never," I said to her.

"You are too stubborn but you give me no choice missy," Lola said to me.

Lola then looked at Monica and said to her "Monica compel Rihana to drink this potion."

Monica with her superhuman speed-walked towards me and looked directly into my eye for few seconds and said to me "Drink it."

"Never," I responded immediately.

As soon as I said that word, Monica's eyes widened as if she saw a ghost then I looked at Lola and saw her mouth fell open.

"What happened to both of you?" I asked them.

"Compulsion did not work on you," Lola whispered.

"What is compulsion?" I asked both of them.

"Vampires can compel humans and sometimes a higher rank vampire can also be able to compel other supernatural creatures," Lola said to me.

I was still confused so I asked again "Is compulsion a gift of Monica?"

"No silly, compulsion is a common feature that all vampires have, like superhuman speed and strength but higher rank vampires have more speed, strength, and their compelling power is also more powerful," Lola explained to me again.

"But why compulsion does not work on her?" Monica exclaimed.

I was also confused but then I reminded myself what Matt told me earlier that I had some magical power in my blood and I had to conceal the truth, though I did not believe that I had some power but now Monica and Lola both were curious why compulsion did not work on me, so to distract them both I gulped down the liquid potion in my hand though I felt irritated that I had to drink a potion in which an actual hair strand was dissolved but I did not have any choice.

"Hey, I already drink it, now tell me how it works?" I asked them.

Lola looked at me and said, "wait for few minutes then you will find out how it works."

Five to ten minutes later Lola magically pop up a mirror in her hand and she handed it to me and said to me "Look at yourself."

I took the mirror and looked at myself in the mirror "AHHHHHHH...." I screamed at top of my lungs.

Lola covered both of her ears with her palm and said to me "Girl do not scream like that, it hurts my ears..."

I was freaked out because I looked exactly like Monica, so I asked Lola "Why do I look exactly like Monica?"

"Because you are going to board a flight and this identity will help you to arrange a visa and passport," Lola explained to me.

"Will I continue to look like Monica?" I asked her in a panicking tone.

"No, it will last for 24 hours after that within thirty minutes you will get your original feature back," Lola explained to me.

'But Monica is not an Indian citizen, she can't live in India forever, if I am using her passport and visa then there will be a problem in the future," I said to Lola.

"No, Monica will reach India using her supernatural speed within 10-12 days then she will be back here using her passport and visa thus it will not create any sort of problem," Lola explained to me.

"Okay," I said.

Then I went to my room with Lola and took my cell phone, it was fully charged but the cell phone was still switched off, I was about to switch on my cell phone but Lola stopped me to do so and said "No, Rihana do not do that, once we reach Kolkata then you can on it."

I nodded my head in agreement and then we went towards the airport and when we reached the airport, security was checking my documents carefully and after verifying the documents properly they allowed us to check-in, I was practically chewing my nails in tension. Finally, we board the flight towards my home city, I was absent from home for approximately the past seven days, I missed my home so much.

But when I looked at my boarding pass properly I was shocked the date printed on the boarding pass was showing that only three days were passed since I was kidn*pped, how it was possible I was confused. Lola was seated just beside me on the flight, she noticed my expression then she asked me " Any problem?"

"What date it is?" I asked her.

She confirmed that the date which was printed in the boarding pass was true, now I understood the Demon Realm and Earth had different time zone and one day in the demon realm is equal to half-day more or less on earth.

The journey was long and I started to feel bore so I started to talk with Lola and I asked her in a whispering tone" Are witches also ruled by their king and queen?"

Lola looked at me and then she replied " You can talk a little louder most of the people surrounding us are either vampires or witches, I take help from my coven Mistress, she send some witches to help me. I am second in command in my witch coven."

"Are you still holding your position?" I asked Lola.

"Yes, I do," she replied.

"But how? In a book I read that if vampires or wolves  found their partner they have to leave their coven or pack for their partners, I thought every supernatural creature do the same," I said to her.

Lola smiled and said, " Yes what you read is true most of the supernatural creatures do that, lower rank partner leave their rank and home place to join his/her partner and if both are equal rank then generally women left their place and join their partner in very few cases men do that for their female partner but witches are different our male counterpart does not live with us, male lives separately in the separate coven, so in witches coven, we do not have to leave our position, a witch is always part of her coven, I often got to my coven and join important meetings, rituals, and a coven is managed by coven mistress, then second in command, third-in-command and fourth in command come after that all witches hold same position and rank, when coven mistress goes to his mate's place then I take the charge if I am not present then third -in-command take the charge and after that fourth-in-command take the charge and we four adjusted among ourselves to manage our coven."

"Your male counterparts do not live with you in your coven?" I asked Lola.

"Yes, they do not live with us in our coven though they can visit us and allowed to stay at the coven as a guest for few days but not permanently," Lola said to me.

"How many days they can stay with you?" I asked her again.

"Each coven has a different rule for that but as per the rule of the Light witch council, no male partner can live in the light witch coven for more than thirty consecutive days and after that, he can't enter that witch coven for at least two consecutive months," Lola said to me.

"But staying away from your partner must be painful," I said to Lola.

"Yeah, it is but a witch and her partner can stay together outside the coven and can visit the coven occasionally there is no bar in it but the truth is that our male counterparts also live in a coven and we are used to it but if some witches are mated to other supernatural creatures or human then either they found a way to stay with their partner for most of the time like me or she could reject her mate and choose a mate for herself," Lola said to me.

"Male counterparts of witches are known as warlocks or wizards ?" I asked Lola.

"Both," Lola said to me.

"You mean both are the same, Right?" I said to her.

"Nope, both are not the same, but warlocks and wizards both are male counterparts of witches," Lola said.

"What is the difference between wizard and warlock?" I asked Lola.

"You know some powerful witches have elemental power and some witches do not have such elemental power and some witches can create the spell and all witches can practice magic spell and can create some potion using method written in different books written by some powerful witches and we all are known as witches. But in case of our male counterparts every wizard are elemental, they possess at least one elemental power, magic flows within them they are able to create new magic spells, warlocks are less powerful, they are more dependent on potion and they just practice spell, they are not able to create any spell, in one word they are less powerful," Lola said to me.

"So, witches, warlocks, and wizards do not have any queen or king?" I asked Lola.

"No, we do not have any queen or king, Light witch council rule over us and Light wizard & warlock council rule over the wizards and warlocks," Lola said to me.

"Why you are mentioning Light witch council? Is there another type of witch also exists?" I asked Lola.

I saw her facial expression changed immediately and she sighed before giving me a reply. She said to me " There were two types in our community Light witches and Dark witches and Light warlock and Dark warlock but 65 years ago Dark witches and Dark warlocks are almost wiped out by the Demons."

"What? why?" I asked Lola.

"No one knows why? But everyone in the supernatural world knows that by the order of the DEMON LORD demons started to execute the dark witches and dark warlocks and soon they become very few in numbers and no one saw any dark witch or dark warlock in past forty years, but for last two years presence of few dark witches can be heard because they did try to harm few other supernatural creatures," Lola said to me.

"Is dark witches or warlocks are bad?" I asked Lola.

"No, they are not bad, we are Light witches because we gain our source of energy and power from the Sun where dark witches and warlocks gain their source of energy and power from the moon, bad and good exist in both communities, in fact in the past few light witches mated with Dark warlocks and few dark witches also mated with Light warlocks and wizards and few of them lost their mates after that 60 years ago the Light Witch Council and the Light Wizard and Warlock Council beg before the Demon Lord and he instructed the Demons not to execute the dark witches and dark warlocks anymore with the condition that dark witches and warlocks can't form any coven and can't use their magic or power anymore, they have to live as human and the Dark witch council and the Dark Warlock Council also got broken because already a lot of member of those council were executed by the demons, and now few dark witches might be wanted to take revenge so they did try to harm other supernatural creatures," Lola said to me.

"Past forty years no one saw any dark witch or warlock anymore either they are executed by the demons or they sacrificed their power to save themselves from demons but last two years we light witches and vampires got some proof  that dark witches still exist and they want vengeance," Lola said to me.

"A witch or their male counterpart can sacrifice their power?" I asked Lola.

"Yes, we are able to sacrifice our power through some ritual and live our lives as humans," Lola said to me.

"Witches and warlocks live a long life, right?" I asked Lola.

"Yes, an elemental witch can live up to 1000 years, witches, warlocks, and wizards have very slow aging process thus we have a longer life, the Great Light Witch Mariossa live up to 2000 years until she murdered by the demons," Lola said to me.

"What? But you said only dark witches and warlocks get murdered by the demons.." I said to Lola.

"The Great Witch Mariossa's mate was a dark warlock and we witch community believe that she tried to save dark warlocks and dark witches and got murdered in the process," Lola said to me.

"That's so terrible, demons are the worst creatures," I said to Lola.

"Yeah, indeed  they are, most of the earthling supernatural creatures hate them but they are so powerful, no one can stand against them, especially that Demon Lord, he is invincible," Lola said to me.

"I hate him," I said in an angry tone.

"Except demons, I think everyone hates him," Lola said to me.

After few minutes I calmed down and asked Lola "What about Dark Wizards? Do they also become extinct?"

Lola looked at me and then said "No Dark wizard never born in this world. So, there was no existence of dark wizards but 100 years ago powerful oracle made a prophecy that a dark wizard will be born and he will rule over all warlocks and wizards as their king."

"But I do not think that it is going to happen in the future because practically dark witches and dark warlocks do not exist anymore. So, having a dark wizard in the future is impossible, though we found some proof that dark witches are still exist but we want to be sure at first and then we will try to save them but now they started to hate other supernatural creatures, so it is difficult, " Lola said to me.

"Demons are awful, they wiped out dark witches and warlocks, terrible," I said to Lola.

" Not only that 65 years ago they also wiped out all the Lycans," Lola said to me.

"What they also murdered all Lycans and werewolves," I said to Lola.

"No not werewolves only Lycans, werewolves and Lycans are not same, they are similar, though Lycans are more powerful and feral creatures, in past werewolves are under One Lycan King but he was murdered by the Demon Lord himself and other Lycans also executed by his army," Lola said to me.

"What a terrible monster!!" I said to Lola.

"Yes, he is a monster, some of us believe that the devil incarnates himself as 'Demon Lord'," Lola said to me.

"I am sure werewolves also hate him," I said to Lola.

"No, werewolves do not hate demons in fact they are the only earthling supernatural creatures who have a good relationship with demons," Lola said to me.

"What but demons murdered their king..." I exclaimed.

"Yes probably that's why they are happy they do not want a ruler, now all werewolves pack lead by their own Alpha's and there is a stupid Werewolves Council who make rules for them but the council is nothing but a puppet of 'Demon Lord'. And they do not like witches, warlocks, wizards, and vampires very much," Lola said to me.

After that, I was sitting quietly and in my heart anger and hatred towards the demon lord grew, even more, the most awful creature I had ever met in my life was he.

After 14 hours I reached my hometown but the sad part was that I still looked like Monica. So, after we exit the airport, we sat in a car then I asked Lola "What I will do next?"

Lola said to me it was almost midnight here and my potion would work for 10 hours more and we would go to a nearby witch coven.

"What? There is a witch coven in Kolkata?" I exclaimed.

"Yes there is a witch coven but the Mistress of the coven requested me to cover your eyes until we reach there and once we entered the coven I will remove your eye band, I hope you understand that each coven has its own rule and we do not welcome humans and other supernatural creatures in our coven unless they are our mates but my mistress coven requested this coven mistress and she agreed to allow you but only on this condition," Lola said to me.

"Do not worry, cover my eyes I can fully understand it, everyone chooses their safety first," I said to Lola.

"Thanks," Lola said to me and covered my eyes with a black piece of cloth, and then she said to me again "In the morning the potion's magic will  be over and you will come back to your original self and I will drop you near your home."

"Okay," I said.

Finally, we reached the nearby witches coven and Lola removed my eye band and the coven mistress send me to a guest room and instructed me to take rest for the night and they also arranged some food for me.

In the morning I wake up and rushed towards the mirror and when I saw my face I cried in joy, finally, I got my face back. After that Lola accompanied me and she left me nearby my home, but this time also they covered my eyes with a piece of black cloth to hide the coven location but I did not mind anything.

Lola said "Goodbye, " to me when she left me nearby my home.

I thanked her wholeheartedly and now I was walking towards my home, I felt nervous because I did not know what I would say when my parents would ask me about my whereabouts for the past few days.

I reached the entrance of my home and pressed the doorbell. Finally, I reached my home!
