It was just 12:00 in the day so not many people came to see their loved ones. Maddie made sure to see the caretaker of the graveyard before she left. She had known him for quite a long time and during that period she had come to admire his hard work.
She walked out of the silent graveyard heading towards her car. Once she got in, shutting the door with her inside, she lay back comfortably on the driver's seat not attempting to touch her steering wheel.
Many thoughts were playing in her head but only one dominated. ' If her parents were alive, would life be this complicated? '. Obviously life would be much peaceful and refreshing, there would be problems but with them around things would be fine.
Maybe then she wouldn't have met Julianne and they would have been total strangers. Maybe she would have then gotten the ideal love she had always yearned for.
But they were just thoughts after all. None of this could actually come true because if it would, it would have happened a long time ago but no, instead she remained an orphan, twice to top it all.
Maddie sighed looking at the front glass of her car. Her phone vibrated meaning she just got a notification, the screen lit up on its own and it was a message from the bar tender at Green's palace.
' Come pick up your Lil sis and her friends, she is drunk again ' the bartender's text read.
Drunk at this time of the day, what's wrong with Julianne? thought Maddie as she quickly texted back with an 'Ok' to assure the bar tender she had got the text.
Sighing, she held onto her steering wheel, starting the ignition, pulling the lever, stepping on the brakes and revising back so she could make a turn and head to Green's palace, a famous restaurant/bar in Brookeville, a place she wished she wouldn't have to visit so often.

" Everyone in on the plan?", Rose asked as the rest of the group she had organised nodded but only one raised his hand up in defiance.
Sighing, she stared at the person calmly prompting him to speak up immediately. " Rose darling, this is fucking suicidal, just think about it, what if Liam figures that someone infiltrated his Manor and rushes back there, we will all be doomed".
A red haired skinny boy who always acted like a girl spoke up. He was a witch and also one of Rose closest friends so he had to tell her, the other witches here had one or two scores to settle with Scott's brother, that was the only reason they presently gathered in the secret spot.
They wouldn't talk sense into Rose so he could at least try. " Melvin you don't get me, the box isn't supposed to be in Liam's hand in the first place and looking at you I can tell you won't be joining us", Rose said decisively, her black orbs staring straight at Melvin's light brown ones.
Currently, they were inside a small room which was known only to Rose and these witches.
The room had chairs like a dining hall and a round table where six of them present in the room currently sat on. At a corner of the room, there was a door, which led to some stairs, those stairs would lead you outside the room and into the forest.
Once in the forest, you could make your way back to the Manor because the only way out of this place was the forest and Rose's closet.
The room had two shelves, both stacked with books which were not ordinary. One of the shelves was positioned not too far from the window while the other one stood almost close to the round table, other than that it seemed only few knew about the place.
" Melvin yes, you are right but Liam has the box and that box contains a necklace, and you know what that necklace could do to us witches. If worn by a dangerous witch she could use it to her advantage and we can't let that happen, we don't know who Liam is gonna give it to and I know Rose isn't right either, we can't take down Liam, we can only hold him off so that Maverick and you can find the box", Alice, a red haired like Melvin said calmly.
She looked calm and composed with a temperament that said she had only few words to offer.
The remaining three people were Josette, Maverick and Peacelynn, they were once smitten by Liam's nature until he did something that hurt them badly which they had always wanted to get back at him for.
" Be a man Melvin, if you don't agree with Rose's plan to get into Liam's Manor, I'll believe you are a coward", Maverick a blonde boy with an Impulsive attitude spoke in clear British accent. He was sitting opposite Melvin who sat at the right side of Rose at the table while he sat at the left.
" The spell is done Rose, Liam Cohen is very far from the Manor at the moment", Josette said as Peacelynn nodded along while folding the map, those two were sisters, brown hairs brown eyes. Josette did her hair in curls while Peacelynn did hers in a pixie cut.
" The location spell proves worthy, we leave now...", Rose said calmly and they all stood up and started to walk out of the place through the stairs but before Melvin could leave Rose called him back.
" This is suicidal Rose", he repeated once again hoping she would hear him out this time but all she did was sigh deeply. " I Know", she replied back.
" That's why you can't come with", and without a second thought she raised her hand and quickly chanted a spell ' Ad sonnum ', causing Melvin's eyes to widen at the realization before shutting close as he fell to the floor unconscious while Rose stared blankly at him for a while before walking away from him, out through the stairs leaving Melvin in the dark.

" Jayden where is she?", Maddie asked as soon as she reached the beer area of Green palace. " Can't you see he's attending to customers?", Jonie asked quite irritated that the bar tender's attention was diverted from her and Liam.
" I'm sorry, I would just like to ask him a few questions", Maddie apologized deeply at the lady who seemed to have anger issues. The people here could best be described as insane and wealthy.
" Relax Jonie, young lady, ask away", a brown haired man who looked calm and composed with his slicked back hair spoke to her. She gave him a small smile and turned to face Jayden, he was the one who texted her.
She moved over to the corner so she could speak to Jayden silently, unaware that the people just now were Supernatural creatures who would clearly hear the discussion they were having.
" Ma'am what can I get you?", Jayden asked this time causing Maddie to frown. " Ma'am? Jayden you sent me a text saying my sister and her friends were drunk", Maddie said with a slight frown on her beautiful baby face.
Although the place was as dark as the night with only few dull lights to keep the atmosphere warm, Maddie could still see how Jayden's orbs would constantly widen before going back to being small.
The slow music coming from the place was dull and with Jayden's quiet behavior it looked quite eerie. Just then the brown haired guy from before came to stand next to her, " we need him now and you are delaying", he said softly causing Maddie's eyes to turn to stare at him.
She didn't notice this before but he was very good looking. His brown orbs which stared back at her were very daunting and that smile on his face was nerve wrecking, she had never felt like this in anyone's presence before.
" He's....., I'm....., I was...., I would just go", she said after finding it difficult to form complete words, he only smiled more as he walked back to his seat and the bartender followed like a robot.
She shook her head, it wasn't like Jayden to completely ignore her. Was something wrong with him? Shaking her head once again to drive away the thought, she walked away hoping to come back to him once she was sure her sister was safe.
She started going round the place, moving past tables upon tables which were occupied with either drunk people or people discussing something serious.
The lighting in the place was so dull that you had to strain your eyes to find someone who sat far away, it made it look like it was night time and that was why the place was this spacious and yet crowded.
Green's palace was it's renowned name. This was the underground bar of the place, the real deal was the restaurant upstairs which was very quiet and peaceful and was a like a cover for all the stupid things that happened here. It wasn't illegal just too crazy for Maddie's liking.
She finally spotted her sister at a table very far from where she stood right now. She hurried over to her only to find those twins next to her, Lilian and Avery, why them?
