The Luna Of The Next Alpha

CHAPTER 12

MYXY’S POV

I couldn’t control my tears when I saw the other witches being tormented once I was inside. My heart feels like it’s being pierced by millions of crayons. I held my left chest, and the sight I was witnessing made my legs feel weak. I sincerely hope that neither this nor what my eyes are seeing are not true. My eyes searched for my mom, and I didn’t know where to find her. I got up right away, began to look for her, and unintentionally bumped into a broom. Everyone stopped and turned to stare at me.

One said, “Someone comes in,” and I covered my mouth.

I don’t know as to what to do or where to hide. At that moment, a woman gestured her wand, making the visible effect that I had created vanish. I brushed away my tears as I saw her smile at me, remembering how I had once seen her and fought her. If I’m not mistaken, she is Lilibeth.

She came up to me and gave me a head-to-toe inspection. I feel strangely uneasy because of the smile she had on her face and the way her eyebrows were raised. “I know you,” she said. “I know who you are,” she added,

“What are you doing with them?” I asked crying.

She laughed after taking a quick look around. She chuckled demonically and added, “Are they? Oh, don’t worry. I’m not that horrible. I’m just being gentle to them, just lessen the strength a bit till they... die for good. Their strength will give me strength.”

She stopped laughing and turned to face me when I shouted, “Stop it. What you’re doing to them is not good.”

“And who are you to order me? You’re just a lowly creature of a witch, and you’re not pure-blooded. If I’m with you, simply go, and I’ll let you go,”

I ignored what she said and continued to stand in my position. She abruptly yanked and flung me, which caused me to crash into a large pot but fortunately not burn me because the fire wasn’t too high. I gave her an evil glare and put both my hands on her.

She replied, moving closer to me, “Do you think I’ll be frightened of you? Low class witch like you shouldn’t even be allowed to exist in this world, but because you also have the capacity as a witch, I think I can reap the benefits of your power anyway,” she added.

She made fun of me because she knew I was terrified of her and unable to fight her. It annoys me because I don’t currently know how to confront her despite the fact that I am aware that I am casting the wrong spell. She turned to face me while grimacing and looking around.

I looked up when she added, “I suppose... we have a special guess right now,” and that’s when I noticed the bats encircling the entire space.

I said indignantly, “f**k!”

When she turned to face me and said, “Looks like you have a guest, Mianna?” I looked in the direction she was facing, and there was my mother.

I shouted out, “Mommy!” and turned to go when someone quickly grabbed my waist and stopped me.

“We meet again, Mario,” Lilibeth said, and I looked in the direction she was pointing.

“I’m glad to see you, Queen Lilibeth,” he greeted as well.

She replied, “I suppose to dispose of that girl right away, but suddenly you appeared,” and I crawled out of Mario's hold.

“Get the fck off of me, Mario! Do you know how costly my clothes were!?” I said.

No matter what I attempted to do, I was unable to wake up my mother because of the man who was holding me. I was unaware that the two of them were friends, so I had no idea what to do. I shook my head, gave him a wicked glare, and then turned to gaze up at the window where Aunt Pnoena stood. I smiled when I saw her.

Everyone was confused as the window’s glass cracked, Mario swiftly pulled me, and I could see Haiden rushing. He dispatched him with lightning quickness, and I was taken aback by his odd appearance at this point. He surprised me by being a wolf dog and having a muscular body.

I stared at Haiden’s stone physique and said, “Whoah."

I observed how he smirked as he said, “Let go of Myxy.”

Mario growled, “What is this scenario about, Romeo and Juliet?”

I answered, “Yes, so you’re the Mario frog who appears to have been born in the snow,” and he turned to face me.

“You’ve got it right, my girl.”

The smile disappeared from my lips and gave him a menacing glare. I was like a teddy bear that was lightweight for him, and he held me with just one arm. Because I knew I wouldn’t be able to escape either, I was unable to escape any further. In spite of the fact that Haiden rushed Mario, he had no trouble keeping hold of him, allowing him to behave in whatever he wanted.

I created a mechanism for him to at least encounter Mario after observing him and how he responded. When I did it, I noticed he’s smile as he turned to face me and expressed how he was actually feeling. I simply smirked at him before winking at him to tell him what needed to be done.

When he did that, Mario let go of me and swiftly grabbed me, stopping them both. I grinned at how Haiden’s actions had worked out. Mario was gazing at me when I turned to look at him, and he instantly fixed his injured arm.

“Good, I didn’t expect the way you acted, that’s why you got her so quickly,” he said as if it was normal for him.

“Is it also possible to follow me?” I said, bewildered and confused.

“Because you’re here,” he said cynically, then laughed and struck me.

I held my breath as Haiden continued to gaze at me. He who appeared to concur with Mario, remarked, “He’s correct.”

“Are you stupid?” I said irritably.

He responded, "I'm merely saying," and I immediately smacked him.

I’m not sure which side he supports. I took another glance at Mario before placing both of my hands on him, releasing the power, and casting a spell. However, surprisingly, I made the same mistake again. Haiden instantly grasped my waist, and we took off running.

While running, I was also making a way so that Mario wouldn’t follow us, but because of his strong sense of smell, he was still able to track us. He attempts to yank me away from Haiden, who is also holding my hand tightly. I instantly made my look-a-like and afterward instructed Haiden to hold that one so Mario would assume I was still with him no matter where we turned or when we were able to conceal.

I parted ways with him and returned to where my mother was. When I returned, I noticed aunt Pneona was faint and went to help her. But even before I could raise her, both of my legs grew weak, as if the earth was pulling me in due to the sudden weight of my body. I coughed and looked at Lilibeth, but I saw nothing but her red eyes.

“Fck it, Lilibeth!”

“Got ya.”

“Ahhh!”

I felt like I was going to run out of energy because of the strange absorption of the thing in her finger ring. I couldn’t breathe till she came to a halt, then both aunt and I collapsed on the floor. I heard Joy calling me, but I also know, she was weak, and others as well. Mario immediately appeared in front of Lilibeth, then grabbed her by the neck, which astonished me. She was splashed, causing a cage where my mother was imprisoned to break.

I compelled myself to get up in order to get a better look at her, and I did it. I felt as though heaven and earth intertwined with me as I moved closer to her unconscious face. Nonetheless, I know she is still alive and only becoming weaker. I put my palm on her left chest, then gave her the remaining of my power.

“Mom,” I called out.

I saw as she gently opened her eyes and looked at me. She held my face with her hand lifted. I instantly took her hand in mine and smiled. I felt like I had strength this time, but I didn't know how to utilize it.

“Myxy,” she called my name.

“Yeah... it’s me... your daughter...” I murmured, my eyes welling up with tears. “Mom...”

“I’m pleased to see you...” she mumbled. “I was terrified... I was frightened...”

“Shhh!!! Don’t say anything, or you’ll weaken again; I’ll take you away... I’ll take you out of the demon kingdom,” I whispered, kissing her hand. “I promise,” I added.

I didn’t know what to do and looked at Lilibeth, but when I felt like someone was choking me, I grabbed my neck. I couldn’t breathe and abruptly leaped, feeling the ache and suffering in my body when I hit the wall. I didn't move right away, so Haiden came up to me, held me, and swiftly raised me, and before he could move, it suddenly collapsed, and he let go of me.

My body slammed with the rock once more, and I felt the liquid pour from my mouth. I could still hear Aunt Pneona calling to me, but I couldn’t get up because of my weakness. I felt my hair being yanked and saw Lilibeth’s horrified face.

“You don’t deserve this, Myxy, and you shouldn’t even be alive; do you know why I became Witch Land’s queen?”

“What do I care? Fck you,” I said fiercely as she tightened her grasp on my hair. “f**k it, Lilibeth!” I yelled.

I can hear Joy enduring the anguish, and I honestly can’t save them since I acknowledge Lilibeth is equally strong. I had a horrible look at her when Mario appeared from behind her and grabbed her from behind, and hurled her like a piece of paper. When he flung her, he instantly pulled me up, and I couldn’t lie down because I was immobilized. I was irritated since I couldn't act properly and couldn't even cast a spell.

“You have too many wounds, and I hate seeing them on your lovely skin,” he murmured as I stared into his eyes.

“I don’t need your help,” I responded, glaring at him.

“You hate me too much, my love,” he said, and I froze.

He carried me, and I noticed how he stared at Mom, who couldn’t move from where she was. I looked at mom, as if pleading for help, but she couldn't because of her weakness. “I’m pleased to see you again, Mianna,” he continued earnestly, making me curious. “But you know what I want for you, don’t you? If you think you can keep this girl away from me, you’re wrong.”

My eyes looked everywhere for Haiden, but I couldn’t even see him. It irritates me that he couldn’t even fight Mario. He will be unable to battle without my assistance, which provides him with strength.

He was ready to depart with me when he noticed Haiden standing behind him, and he promptly strangled him by the neck. For the third time, I fell to the ground and struck my head on a rock, and I was dazed by what had occurred. I instantly cast a spell, and as I glanced at both of them, a powerful fire burst from my hand, and they both sputtered.

I lifted my index finger and tried to heal myself, but I couldn’t. My vision is blurry, and I’m scared that I’m going to die from suffering. Nonetheless, I felt someone lift me up, and it wasn’t Haiden or Mario. I couldn’t do it even if I opened my eyes, and no matter what I did, I couldn’t chant the spell because of my weakness.

“MYXY!!!” I heard aunt Pneona’s last call to me.
