“So you want to blame it on the person you are attacking, not because you took the wrong side. Huh?” The cold voice surprised all three witches in the room.

Witches had hated vampires but more than that they hated Rafael, since he had killed many of them as if he was trampling ants. His pride, his smirk, his mere existence was enough to create uproar in the witches.

“You are trying to kill him. Aren’t you? But if attack and kills you instead then he is cruel and harsh.

But if yo have succeeded in killing him then it would be justice or his incompetence to save himself. Huh?” he continued while the rest of them stared at him with bewilderment.

“Do not tell me that you have changed sides. Now what do you expect us to do? Join our hands with Rafael or live the rest of our life in hiding? I did not understand you. Have you lost your mind living with humans and vampires?

Or you think that Rafael is stronger and greater than us so he had the right to kill us. What if the little girl is trying to kill him to save her life and so is her coven?” his aunt chided him as she stared back at him with a stern gaze as if telling him to not go ahead of himself or he would get beaten.

Lucian grumbled. Neither he had lost his aim or his desire to save witches but he could not forget how Hazel was on the brink of death because of these witches.

They have tried to use small and innocent kids that could not save themselves.

“I am still trying to fight for the rights of the witches but it does not mean that I support using small kids or killing anyone that will be in your way.

I would rather stay away from them. We only have animosity with Rafael. Why are we dragging innocent people in the game?







Ha! Then what difference do we have?” the young witch bit her lips and lowered her head since she had nothing to refute.

She wanted to say that she did not know that those knights would use kids and act like that when she had signed the blood pact. He had only told her that he needed the help of witches in extracting beryllium to kill Rafael since they have a common enemy.

But that did not decrease her responsibility. She could have denied or taken action against them later.

“You can stay here. They will protect you but do not play anything funny here.

I will look into the matter. The kids you were using.. I have saved them and they are here too. Do not approach them if they could recognise you since it would be hard for me to explain why I have saved their tormentors too.

Can you tell me what was your plan after getting enough of Beryllium?” Though his tone was still cold, a hint of care and worry could be felt in them that made the girl feel guiltier.

He was right. He had no reason to save her, yet he did. It was her duty to help them now. And she wanted to teach her tormentor a lesson too.

“They have asked us to make a set of sword and dagger complete with Beryllium by mixing a bit of iron in it and then covering it with spells so that it looks like an ordinary sword and daggers.

There is a hunting competition on the final day of the festival. They are going to use this chance to attack him when he would be alone in the woods while they have their whole army prepared.” she whispered softly. There was no hint of regret in her eyes.

“Why did you need kids?”

“To supply Beryllium. Only a small amount was found at a time. And if adults would transfer it, they would get caught. And it has a negative effect on the health of humans too. So, not many were ready to help in transporting it.







Kids are not noticed and they could not know about the side effects, making them their best choice.” she could feel the gasps of all three of them and knew that she was wrong all this time. But she had no reason. All she wanted was to get themselves free from the trap of humans.

So, even when she knew that they were exploiting small kids, she turned a blind eye to it, telling that she was bound with blood pact so she could not go against them.

Whenever she heard their cries, instead of helping them, she closed her eyes. She was selfish and greedy but it was only for her coven.

“Stay here. I will handle the rest.” he stood up ready to leave when the couple stood up too.

While his aunt helped the young witch who was tear stricken and looked so guilty that she would dig a hole and hide there for the rest of her life. His uncle stood up and followed Lucian out of the room.

“Luci!” Lucian halted in his steps as he knew that he was being too harsh just a while ago.

“You should keep your emotions out of your mission, kid. Not only me and your aunt, everyone would realize that you like hazel soon.

But do not forget that she is the wife of the vampire who had killed our families and she did not look at you that way.“ He wanted to say that they are not truly married and that Rafael would never accept a witch as his wife.

It was only a matter of time that he would try to kill her and she would realize his reality but he kept silent.

“That girl, I have a hair test. She had the strongest forbidden seal on her. So, it is impossible to know if she had magic or another protection spell on her that got activated when she was attacked.

But she is no ordinary human.”
