Chapter 10


I walked out of the door leaving my family behind going straight to my room. I need to wrap my mind around it that I have got a mother now who loves me very much. This supernatural world is so much for me. I am a mere human and they expect me to fulfill some damn prophecy. How am I going to fight monsters with my fragile hands. It is impossible. 

I opened the door to my temporary room and switched on the lights. I started making my way to the bed when I freeze on my spot. Caleb was lying down on my bed smiling at me. Damn boy, he nearly gave me a heart attack. "What are you doing in my room?" I asked walking towards him. He pulled himself in seating position and gestured me to sit beside him, I was reluctant to sit beside him so I took a seat opposite of him. He raised his eyebrow at this and smirked. "How have you been?" he asked of all the question I expected him to ask me. 

"Why are you asking me this, I am fine" I replied little unsure.  

Suddenly he leaped forward and pulled me in his arms making me startled. "I have missed you Em" he whispered in my ear. I was uncomfortable when he hugged me and tried to free myself away from him. He broke the hug and gave me a charming smile sitting back on his previous position. My face has the same shocked expression to which he chuckled. "Sorry, I couldn't control myself, It has been two years" he said sheepishly getting comfortable in his seat. 

"You know, I still don't understand the situation I am in" I said in bewildered tone. He nodded his head slowly "I know, but you will figure all this out very soon" he said giving me a reassuring smile. Do I want to even understand it or get away from it altogether. I am still in dilemma about it.

He kept staring at me smiling. "You know you are creeping me out" I murmured looking at him with grimace. "I have missed my best friend, my partner in crime" he said, his voice becoming thick all of a sudden. I don't want to get everyone hope high. "Maybe I am not her" I said, I certainly think I am not her. She seems like a legend who save the world from the apparent apocalypse. I can't take this much responsibility, I am not ready to. He sighed "I know its lot to take in but I am certain when you will get your memory back, you will be just fine" he said trying to reassure me. I slowly nodded my head "How can I get my memory back?" I asked, if this is all true, if I am what they say I am, then I want my memory back. I want to remember it all. I want to clear the confusion that is happening around me. 

He furrowed his eyebrow making a thinking face "I am not quite certain but maybe Cassandra can help in this" he said. Cassandra as in Aunt Cassy, she is in it too. She is the one who told them to kidnapped me. She started all of this. I want to meet her and ask her everything. "Where is she?" I asked him, if she can fill the void about my memories and can help me join the dots with the weird dreams I am having, that would be good.

"I don't know, her location is unknown to us for now" he said, her location is unknown? I talked to her once in a while and met her in every occasion. Now they are unable to find her. "Did you try searching for her?" I asked, even if I am angry at them, they are still my family. She is still my Aunt who took care of me. He gave a short laugh hearing that "She is the most powerful Witch, when she doesn't want to be found no can find her" he said rolling his eyes. 

Witches

Dragons

Elemental

My life has become a fantasy adventure. If you told me that I will be thrown into supernatural world or is there a supernatural world one month ago, I would have laughed in your face and gave you the number of nearby Asylum. But right now, my life has become this. I didn't respond to him, too lost in my own thoughts. "Do you want to do something fun?" he suddenly asked me standing up and pretending to dust his clothes. "As in" I asked confused, I am getting bored here and there is nothing for me to do rather than watch the ceiling and mulling over my thoughts. He smirked and forward his hand towards me. "You will find out soon" he said. I looked at his outstretched hand thinking if I should stay here and follow him wherever he is taking me. Do hell with it.

I put my hand in his and stood up giving him a small smile. He returned the smile, his eyes shining bright and he pulled me towards the door.

"This was your idea of fun" I groaned stepping away from him. My face was covered with sweat and I was huffing and puffing. I thought we would be doing something fun but he took me out in the open behind the Castle where the training room is. He gave me the sword and told me it was the fun activity for me. Well guess what, I don't think so.

He is making me fight him with sword when I denied, he started attacking me and I didn't have any choice but to dodge it barely. "You loved it before" he chuckled raising his sword and going for another round. Before he could attack me I threw my sword away "I am not her anymore" I said shaking my head and wiping the sweat from my forehead. I am done. He pulled his sword away as well, pressing his lips together and sighing. "I am sorry" he said bending towards the ground to pick my sword. 

"Or maybe she became a wimp" A familiar voice said from behind. I turned around and saw Chase coming towards us wearing training attire. He looked like a model when he walked towards us, a smirk appeared on his face when I narrowed my eyes at him. Caleb greeted him and he took the sword from Caleb swinging the sword flexing his muscles in the process. "What do you mean by wimp" I asked him, he cannot just call me that. I know I am not strong like him but he has no right to say things like that. He looked at me smirking "Well, it has same meaning as everyone know" he said continuing to move the sword at fast pace. I rolled my eyes, he is such a showoff. Caleb shook his head grinning "Well I am out of here" he said and quickly made his way without even waiting for me. I growled at his retreating back, he just left me with the devil himself. 

"I know you lost your memory so does your skills" he said not even looking at me, concentrating in his training. A drop of sweat started dripping from his forehead making his way down his neck. I gulped and looked away. Stop thinking about him. "I should go" I said, my voice low and my face flushed. He didn't even look at me "Well, thats a great idea, you are not doing anything here either" he said cocking his head and turning his back on me. My nostrils flare and my anger rises. I am not useless. He can't make comment like this and get away with it. I went towards the weapon area and pulled a sword making my way towards him. I will show him what I am. He was moving  his sword swiftly when I swing my sword at him aiming for his chest. He quickly stopped the attack and looked at me. His eyes shining with amusement. He pushed the sword away, swinging his own at me, I dodged the attack aiming for his head this time. How can he think that I am weak. I will show him what I can do even if I never hold a sword in my hand except for the time when I participate in the school play and became a King. I know one or two moves. Slowly I lost myself not even realizing my moves, my only focus was to wipe that grin from his face. He swing the sword aiming for my legs, I quickly jumped narrowly missing it. Without wasting any second, I swung the sword at him with full force, he stopped it but the grin on his face changed into concentration look. He pulled more force in his attacks which I defended at best. Suddenly his eyes turned black and he lunged at me attacking with more force, but this time I just raised my sword and the two blades clanged together, creating a rumbling echo through the area. The weight of his sword was dragging me down but I am not ready to lose. I soon recovered and pushed back hard. He is very strong so I jumped back and attempted to go for his arm but he dodged the attack and before I could see it he was behind me. His sword around my neck and my sword lying down on the ground. I huffed, my breathing labored because of the excessive use of energy. I am not a work out type around. I would rather like to stay in bed watching Netflix than hit the gym. 

He turned me around throwing his sword away and pulling me towards him. His lips suddenly met mine kissing me with the same force he used a while ago. I was frozen on my spot not knowing what to do. Slowly I melted in the kiss and kissed him back enjoying the moment.

His lips were soft on mine and he was kissing me passionately like he was waiting for this moment. It was like he was trying to convey his feeling with this kiss. I have never been kissed like that in my life not even Xavier kissed me like that.

Oh shit.

I broke the kiss and pushed him away. My heart was beating fast due to kiss. "What the hell was that" I shouted, he shouldn't have kissed me. I have a boyfriend who is waiting for me. I can't cheat on him. He raised his eyebrow "We kissed" he said like its no big deal. I gritted my teeth in anger "You can not kiss me just like that".

He shrugged his shoulder "You kissed me back".

I groaned massaging my forehead "It was a mistake". His eyes turned into slits "It wasn't and you know it" he said, his voice hard. No it was a mistake which I cannot afford. "Forget it" I murmured and turning around walking towards the exit. "You can not always walk away from your problems" he said from behind but to my relief he didn't follow me. I sprinted towards my room closing the door behind me. My chest rising and falling, my cheeks were red from the running and the kiss. I slowly slide down on the ground and stare at the balcony where sun lowering down creating a beautiful scenario.

Kiss playing in my head again and again. When he kissed me, electricity run through my whole body in pleasurable way. But its all wrong, I shouldn't forget I love Xavier.

Then why does it feels right?
