Chapter 7

Anastasia, Avery, and Cassandra drove to the place where the letter said. Cassandra's team was only a few blocks away from them, just in case they needed help quickly. They even put a secret microphone and camera on themselves so that Cassandra's team would know what's happening.

It was a dark, and an old abandoned building or a garage since it looked really empty. Maybe they can call it an abandoned venue for celebrations. Anastasia told those two to stay in the car and she'll go in there by herself. Cassandra wanted to argue, but she knew it was not the time for arguments.

Anastasia went inside and looked around. There was dust everywhere and an intense, weird smell was surrounding her. She covered her nose and mouth with her sleeve. "Uh hello? I've come to pick up my kidnapped girlfriend! You kidnapped her and told me to come here!" She shouted, but nobody responded.

"Oh, you're here." she flinched at the voice and turned around. A fully clothed man stood a few metres away from her. He was dressed in black from head to toe but only his eyes and mouth were uncovered. Also that voice. She heard it somewhere but she couldn't tell whose it was.

"Give me my girlfriend back to me!"

"Oh yes, I'll do that. But you gotta do something in return."

"Give you money?" Anastasia grunted. "Bruh, you can take my company away. I don't need it, anyway."

"I don't want your money, your highness."

Her eyes widened, and she frowned. Inside, she thought of a spell that would probably kill him. "What? Who are you?"

"Don't you remember me, your highness?"

"If you're one of my enemies, then I don't know you, bruh."

"I'm not one of your enemies, your highness. I'm one of your secret admirers."

"Umm, okay. You seem like an obsessive secret admirer to me, but okay. Now what the fuck do you want, bruh? I don't have time for your bullshit!"

"You."

"What?"

"I want you. I want you to marry me."

Anastasia blinked and then bursted laughing. "Sorry bruh, can't do that. I'm a lesbian so I can't do that. Also, I'm in love with someone."

"I know you're not a lesbian! You're just faking it!"

"Bruh, I'm not joking when I tell you I'm a lesbian."

"You haven't tried dick yet then."

Anastasia rolled her eyes, hearing the same ignorant words. "How about you go try some for yourself? Who knows, you might be gay. Anyway, let's get this over with, I'm tired."

Anastasia suddenly shot the spell at the dude, but it reflected, hitting her. She flew back and crashed into a wall. Cement bricks fell on her. She tried to stand up but couldn't because her vision was getting blurry. We can consider her simplest spells as lethal, and the spell she used could kill an entire army.

But how did the spell reflect? Did he use a protection spell on himself? If he did, then it would probably be a weak one. Nobody would stay live after encountering her spells. Her best guess was, a really old witch made it. Older than her.

But who can it be?

Her questions remained unanswered as she passed out, falling on the cement again. The man walked up to her and removed his mask, revealing a face nearly like hers. "I'm sorry, Ming Yue, but I have to do this, for us. Okay?" he crouched and down and kissed her forehead.

He stood up and yelled. "Bring in the roaches!"

Three armed men dressed in all black dragged Cassandra and Avery into the old building. Two men tried their best to control Cassandra, but they couldn't. She tried to twist their arms or back kicked them, but they knew what was going to happen. If she continued moving around, everyone would be dead in a few.

"You sick bastard! I knew you were the one who killed the seer! Yet you managed to escape through my hands! You motherfucker!"

The man just smiled. "Nice to meet you too, cousin!"

And with that, he pulled out a gun and shot them both with silver bullets. It wouldn't kill them but it made them unconscious for a while and when they wake up, the silver would fuck up with their nervous system.

"Boss, what about the other wolves?" one of the men asked.

"Burn the goddamn building down. I don't care whoever the fuck is there, but burn it down later, okay? Just put them both in the portal and go burn the building down." he said while making a portal.

"Okay, boss!" those three carried away Avery and Casandra through the portal. The dude picked up Anastasia and gazed at her unconscious face. "Don't worry, I'll keep you away from that bitch."
