Chapter 151

-Maya’s POV-

The plan was terrible, as we would soon discover. I’d never cared about witches before, but now, leaning against the car and trying to get rid of a blinding headache, I realized these women had a serious problem with creatures like me.

Everything went wrong as soon as we got out of the car. Natalia, Sarah, and I were suddenly hit with a powerful wave of magic. I saw Christisn reach for his gun but then remembered the twins were there. He lowered it and tried to talk to the five witches who had appeared from the shadows. His words didn’t work, and my headache got worse.

I screamed, which made Ivy cry. That seemed to stop them. The witches looked at the kids. Maybe they felt sorry for them.

The woman in the middle stepped forward. Her hair was dark, and her eyes were so grey they looked like empty holes. “One of you comes here, and others follow before we know it,” she said sharply. “There will be a big fight. The witches will stay on their side. You should take your kids and

go.”

Riley raised her hands. “We don’t want trouble. The werewolf,” she pointed at the twins, “he’s their father. We just want to take him and leave.”

The witches kept looking at us, especially the twins. Maybe they liked kids.

The woman’s eyes narrowed. Sarah growled and muttered, “If those bitches use that magic on me again, I’m attacking.”

I stood up straighter and put the twins behind me. “Please. We don’t want trouble. We’ll leave as soon as we have him. We understand this is your territory,” I continued, trying to sound calm. “We’re not here to cause trouble. We just want to find Alex and leave.”

The woman stared at me, her eyes cold. “If he entered here, he’s as good as dead.”

My heart pounded. “That’s not true. I know he is alive and he wouldn’t hurt anyone.”
