Chapter 453 You Are Now One Of Us

"So you see reasons why you can notgo anywhere until she is dealt with"

  "And how are you people planning to do that when she has been on the leash for so many years without anything being done to her? She must really be powerful for you all to handle"

   Theophilus looked at me then looked away. 

"Mom and Tiana are trying to find a way. I overheard them saying there something to be done and you have to be the one to do it since she is after me your mate"

  I tried hard not to laugh but what the heck,? I had to laugh.

Last night I found out I am a witch and now, he is telling me I am the one to deal with the so-called witch.

   "So where is she and how am I supposed to deal with her?"

I asked, smiling, the whole thing was amusing me.

   "I believe she is my supposed bride"

He replied and I looked at him surprised. I know that the day I saw her, there was something about her,like a dark power.

    "How did she do it? I mean, how did she live among you for years and you did not find out she is evil?"

   "The thing is, Abigail was not really the black witch, the black witch planted her so that after she marries me, she will possess her then hatch her plan. There was no way she was going to live with us and we will not find out so that's how"

   There are a lot of things I need to know if I am to cope with this new life of mine. Learning how the whole witch thing works, the does and doesn't. Their history and so on.

   "Okay, can we get it over with so that I can be free again. If there is one thing I hate in life, it is my movement to be restricted."

  "That's right but we need to go greet my parents."

  He said and came down from the bed, kissed my forehead. He went to the big wardrobe, I guess it's where his clothes are. He opened it and brought a plain gown like the one he is putting in and handed it over to me.

   "Get dress in this, Please"

How am I going to wear this pain dress that has no shape? I don't care when it comes to clothes but you see this one? No way.

   "It's better I wear this dress I am putting in, there is nothing wrong with it"

"Of Course there is everything wrong with it, South don't permit foreign cloths here if you are a Southern"

  "Who says I am Southern, I was born in Beverly in case you have forgotten"

   "I know that, I did not forget but you see, last night made you one of us so you have to dress as we dress. There is no big deal. You don't have to be stubborn about it."

   I put on the dress when I saw there was no way I was not going to wear it.

  When I was done, we left his room together, heading to where I don't know. He made sure to have my hand in his, I was following him behind Like a lost puppy.

  I was astonished by what I was seeing, I was just seeing the place clearly for the first time. The wall, the structure of the building screams ancient. When I thought my house in the woods was ancient enough and I met this one, I realized that this is the pure definition of ancient.

   "Have you always lived here all your life? How do you manage? There is no civilization at all. I wouldn't mind living here because I have lived in the woods but you see the backwardness of this place, it is in the highest order"

   He smirked at what I said,

  "Maybe together we will bring the change that The South needs"

I don't think it will be possible like what he told me in the night. How does one make his past to be present or even future? It's not possible as far as I know, it's just not possible.

  We fell silent and continued to walk through the long corridor. We walked past the portraits and the picture of me did not escape my notice, I kind of saw the picture of the man clearly and it was Theophilus. This did not make me doubt what he said about us coming to the world before. 

  Mom had taught me that people return back to life again if they have to.
