Violet

I smirked “Hey grandpa”

His smirk instantly dropped turning into a grimace. “I told you not to call me that”

I rolled my eyes “Please with you being older than two of my grandfather’s you’re lucky I didn’t add any greats” I Smirked at the last part seeing him glare at me.

“You do know I’m more powerful than you and can curse you for a while right?” he narrowed his eyes at me while I just smiled sweetly. “You wouldn’t you love me too much, I’m you’re only granddaughter.”

He only rolled his eyes. “I’ll get another you in the next century.” I pouted faking hurt before shrugging.

Meet Dark Vader, master of the most powerful dark coven. 

No I’m kidding his name is Dracula.

If you’re waiting for an ‘I’m kidding’ I’m not kidding.

He is the original Dracula. Shocker! you would’ve thought he was a demon or vampire but he was this very dark witch who has been leading his coven for centuries.

Everyone thought he was a vampire because he kidnapped and used the humans for his spells which their bodies dissipates to along with their souls and they thought he well…..ate them. He also used their blood for a very complicated spell that keeps him young throughout the centuries and their souls to keep his soul from fading of age. Looking at him you wouldn’t think he was more than 1000 years old.

I make friends with weird people and enemies with the right people. Alayna’s words not mine.

In my defense I’m not the only one. Drac has met my past reincarnations and took it upon himself to mentor them in the arts of dark magic. I’m sure Alayna has told you how meeting the light witches turned out…. They weren’t as different back then. 

But talk about an eternal best friend huh. I was wondering why my wolf felt so comfortable around him weirdly though she doesn’t remember anything. I’ve asked him about it a couple of times but he just blew it off as pressure and disgusting scenes of battles that could give us nightmares. 

One we all know they would all just be dreams to me, just saying, I mean watching your pass selves kick ass?

Two we both know that’s not it. Every other wolves remember something from their past lives it’s just that they choose to forget and leave it behind them. Mine didn’t and neither didn’t Alayna’s and that’s suspicious.

Especially since mother and daddy dearest always avoid answering whenever Alayna asks.

Okay getting off track.

He’s older than all my grandfathers combined and lucky I don’t add the billion greats to his name. Takes too long it’ll probably be next week by then. I mentally snorted ‘old man’.

“Heard that” He glared at me while I just smirked.

“SO why are you-“He was cut off by growls and yells along with the sound of struggle. I turned back towards the double doors behind him in confusion before it was busted open.

My nose wrinkled at the stench of rogue that was covered by the smell and aura in this house. One down side about being a rogue that rotten stench funny thing we didn’t smell so bad within ourselves but pack wolves were a different story.

“I knew I smelt a wolf in here. Someone can finally get me away from those freaks crutches” He scrunched his nose in disgust looking around the room before his eyes landed on me.

He smelt the air before frowning. He may have smelt me but he didn’t smell good enough to know…

“What the hell is a pack mutt doing out here” He growled at me while I just raised my eyebrows with indifference.

“Whatever call you’re pack to get us out of here” He really couldn’t read the mood in the room could he, or faces.

Everyone was now gathered around the two of us smirking the dark aura in the room growing heavier.

He frowned in confusion “What are you waiting for? Do you want to end up as one of their sacrifices? I knew pack mutts were pathetic but not this pathetic.” He almost sneered while I felt my wolf coming back.

‘Sure when there’s a man in chains insulting us making you bloodthirsty you come. Why not to see if I’m alright?’ I coated my voice in sarcasm to hide the little hurt I felt through me.

‘Oh shut up you know you missed me now let’s just kill him’ She rolled her eyes making me roll my eyes. How does that even work?

I turned back towards the man to smirk at his confusion as he looked around. I saw the doubt in his eyes while he tried to find the answer as to why I was not panicking and helping him, yet he resists the obvious one.

I chuckled darkly “You really shouldn’t insult those who are here to supposedly save you” I saw the fear in his eyes as I let out my dark witch aura. “Next time read the mood” I sneered at him before he screamed bloody murder as shadows wrapped around him while I heard the dark laughs and snickering from the other witches around us.

It felt good to let out my powers and aura, concealing it is a pain and it’s always uncomfortable and it feels as if I’m denying my true nature and heritage. A dark witch’s aura is always dark and well poisonous to other’s soul’s and can influence them which is why I always conceal it which is not as easy as it sounds.

I also couldn’t cast any spells near them because of the dark aura it imitates disturbing balance within one’s aura or soul or their wolves who pretty much just get a little cuckoo to put it lightly.

While I have to conceal my aura Alayna has no problem letting it out considering how good and wonderful it makes them feel and also righteous. Ugh.

At least I was ‘selfless’ enough to conceal my aura so I wouldn’t ‘hurt’ others around me yet she doesn’t conceal hers when it makes me so damn uncomfortable  no matter how much I get used to it. At least Meridith conceals hers but now that boy Stephen. Ugh.

Something about him is fishy and it’s not him being a light witch and his irritating aura.

Getting annoyed of the man’s screams I muttered a set of words making him fall unconscious- into his worst nightmares. Didn’t think I would take it easy on him did you?

Though he would still be screaming had I not taken his voice away. Good riddance, though he looks funny with his face like that screaming yet not screaming.

“Oh thank goodness he was really starting to annoy me with his snarky remarks” One of the dark witches that was restricting him spoke glaring at the man with disgust before turning towards me.

“Good to have you back Violet, staying permanently?” He smirked at me while I rolled my eyes. “Sadly no, I came here because I needed to get away and release my aura and spells for a while.”

“So you missed us?” Many of the dark witches snickered but otherwise were all glad I was here.

“Yes I missed you all, think anyone will miss you if you’re six feet under?” I smiled sweetly while he gulped laughing nervously.

“Oh Violet always with the violent loving threats” He moved back into the crowd who stared at him in amusement.

I turned back towards the man and studied his aura. Dark almost black, he would be useful. “You wouldn’t mind if I took him would you” I turned towards Dracula as the crowd dispersed.

“Sorry sweetheart we need him for a spell.” He chuckled moving towards his office.

“Oh” I muttered nipping at my lips nervously. “You wouldn’t happen to give me any spares would you?” I asked him sweetly.

“Nope we need all of them for a spell” He sat at his desk while I closed the door behind us.

I turned towards him raising an eyebrow “Why the heck a spell would need so many souls?” More than ever I wanted to scowl for not getting what I want.

I can be a brat sometimes especially with Dracula, why do your think I call him grandpa? Other than his age but if I tell him that I’ll never live it down with it in this life and possibly in my next life.

“A barrier” He answered curtly as I sat my eyebrows furrowing in confusion. Sure a barrier takes a couple of souls but not that much, knowing them they would have many souls and spares to give to me yet using all of them? That’s a lot.

“The demons have been getting rowdy and bold enough to cross into our territory and you know how hard it is to barricade similar creatures of darkness” I nodded finally understanding.

Creating a barrier against demons will be like creating a barrier against ourselves since were as similar to them with our magic as vampires are with their diet. Not to mention the barrier is made from the dark energy while they run on dark energy just like us so we need a whole lot to keep them out and even more to create it for us to be able to go through.

Sighing I sank back into the chair while he just stared at me. “I know there’s another reason you came here” I just groaned leaning my head back.

Drac always so observing but time has taught him a lot.

“Spit it out Violet” He groaned. Yet time has not taught him patience. Ironic considering how long he lived.

I lifted my head back up and looked anywhere but him. “SO you know how demons have been going around and well they have a king and all and-“

“Get with it” nope time has not taught him patience.

“Ok ok, I’ve been seeing the king of demons….” I trailed off still not looking at him.

“Naberious?” He asked confused while I felt annoyance within “His name is Nathan” I snapped and looked down at my hands in confusion.

‘What the heck was that?’

‘I just hate that name, I mean you shouldn’t call someone the root of evil just because you don’t know them if so then you might as well call most people the root of evil…’ My wolf continued rambling while I got annoyed.

‘Just don’t do that again’ I snapped while she narrowed her eyes at me.

‘That wasn’t just from me you know’

‘Sure it wasn’t’ I rolled my eyes.

‘Yes it wasn’t, you’re just denying it’ my wolf snapped at me while I narrowed my eyes at her.

“Nathan?” I looked up at Dracula seeing something flash in his eyes.

“Uh yeah that’s what he said his name is and Naberious is what people named him over the years” I chuckled nervously tugging at my jacket.

“And how would you know that?” He raised an eyebrow staring at me suspiciously.

“Oh you know he comes around…we talk…..have a bonding session” I said fidgeting while he just stared at me.

“Ok then….” He blinked while I stared at him confused.

“You’re not questioning me on why I was speaking to the king of demons in the first place?” Seriously anyone would be freaking out or staring at me in disgust and cursing me out right now.

He just shrugged looking out the window “If he makes you happy who am I to interfere” wait wait hold up.

“I never meant it like that! I don’t even like him, it’s just that he always pops up sometimes and well we talk and I feel a connection towards him, he’s so sweet and handsome dark and dangerous he’s not my mate but he understands my feelings doesn’t judge me and-“I stopped when I saw the knowing look he was giving me tears pricking my eyes.

“And I think that I’m actually falling for him”

‘Told you, you were denying it’ my wolf smirked while I just closed my eyes feeling a single tear streak down my face.

‘Shut up’
