Chereads / The alpha and his enchantress / Chapter 4 - Curiosity kills the fox

Chapter 4 - Curiosity kills the fox

I started snooping around the room first with the bookshelf but all I found were books on something called nightcrawlers. I was about to walk away when a book caught my eyes. It was bigger than the rest and it looks older. I took if off the shelf and went to sit on the bed. When I took a closer look at the book it was locked but not with some ordinary lock...no.....they were vine like things wrapped around it to prevent it from opening.

At first I tried to break the vines but they were strong no matter what I do it just wouldn't open. I became so frustrated that I slammed my hand down on to the book, causing the roughness of the vine to cut my hand I hissed and retrieve my hand from the book but before I could fully pull my hand away a droplet of my blood dropped on the vine and then it started to move, the vines started to unravel themselves.

The book opened and the pages started to flip by themselves and then they stopped to a page. I took a look at the page the heading was 'THE ENCHANTRESS' I remember Barbra saying this was the enchantress room. I looked at the page it stated.

'The Enchantress mother of all creatures. The enchantress is the most powerful creature. Her skin is as white as milk with her lips red as blood, her hair is as black as night and her eyes have the colour of the rainbow.

The enchantress can control all weather she can use nature at her disposal, she has all four elements water, wind, earth and fire. The enchantress cannot die if she does she would only be reborned.

Even though the enchantress cannot die she can be weakened and she can be put to eternal rest. They are two things precious to the enchantress

1)The emeralds necklace and 2) her mate.

Once these two things are taken away from her she becomes weak. The enchantress is all good but it is said that once the enchantress is betrayed by her mate where as he 'mates' with someone else . The enchantress would lose her mind where she would destroy anything and everything.

Once darkness has over took her heart and mind. Her skin will become as pale as a ghost, her lips will become as dark as the night sky, her rainbow eyes would be clouded with whiteness and her long black hair will become as white as snow.

When this is complete it says that she would let go of everything and become one with nature. Once she has merched with nature the world would be clouded with darkness and then the 'Fear Eater' would arise to feed upon our fears and the enchantress would be gone forever.

I was about to continue reading when the book closed and the vines went back in place locking it securely and it flings back to it's space on the shelf and that is when I heard it "Nicholas" a voice whispered I quickly stood up and look around the room but no one was there. "Nicholas" the voice whispered again "mom" I called out.

All of a sudden the light switch turns off leaving the room in darkness with only one source of light "The Green Necklace" the necklace was glowing providing a small light for me to see "Nicholas" the voice whispered. I spin around looking at the corner of the room that the voice came from and then I heard it *rattling* my breath hitched as a image sprang form the dark corner running to another corner from the room. I heard a hissing sound and then I look up and that is when I saw it ...eight red eyes staring at me in one corner of the room above the ceiling.

I slowly step back towards the door. The creature crawled further out of the darkness. It was huge. It has a body shaped as a spider but I can as see a bone like tail frickering behind it . It's entire body is covered in green slime I could literally see the slime dripping on to the ground. It screeched at me exposing it long razer sharp teeth. In another scenario I would have said that it really needed a breath mint which it really did by the way but I did the next best thing that normal human beings do. I looked it in the face and "AHHHHHHHHHH!!" I ran out of the room as fast as I can trying to get as far away from that thing.

I saw a set of stairs I ran down them never looking back scared to see if that hideous creature is chasing after me or not. Once I reached down the stairs I saw a door and without thinking I rushed into the room locking it "I'm sorry I really can't help it please don't kill me because I killed your spider babies I mean they would have died from you hideousness I'm straying form the point I'm really sorry mister or are you a miss anyways I'm really sorry I didn't mean to kill them I promised I gave them a good berial I really did please don't kill me mister sister spider creature"

The sound of the creature outside comes to a halt I let out a breath of ease not yet realizing what was in the room with me. *Growl* my entire body froze . My breath hitched as I slowly turning around hoping it's not the same creature and wishing at the same time that it's not the master.
