"you seem uneasy sir, what is it?" Luke asked
"the girl I walked down the isle is not my afet, and now i feel as though someone is watching me, the room is cold and I understand it must be her" he said
"her?" Roman asked
"there's something I didn't tell you, Afet's mother's family was filty rich, it was famous thay they were ritualists, some of us didn't believe because there are people rich out there that aren't in rituals, but again, they were witches, and that I have witnessed, which is one of the reasons why they didn't want me to their family, and the girl I saw earlier might look like my afet, but her aura is of a woman that handed me money, Afet's great grandmother" he said
"what are you talking about?" Roman stood up
"I need to find afet, as soon as possible before something happens to her" he said
"I've met afet, she's the same person you saw today" Roman said
"no, afet is not the person you know, they stole her identity, afet might be in danger" he said
"we will help you find your daughter sir, but we advice you to stay here, you're both safe here" Luke said
"but I don't feel safe" he said
"we understand, but believe me, we have a seer hear, he will help us" Luke said
when he went back to their room, his wife was dead, he screamed for help, everyone including the maids woke up, they all ran to the cottage
"I found her laying dead" he said panicked
"what happened?" Kofi asked
"she looks like her blood was sucked out, what could've happened?" Luke said, he took out his phone and called the forensics and the police, meanwhile the seer came
"prince, can I talk to you in private?" he said, ran followed him to the side
"is this how you pictured your wedding day?" the seer asked
"not at all, but why do you ask?" Roman
"I'm going to let you figure things out on your own, but this should open your eyes" the seer then left the scene and went to his hut
"what did he say?" Randy asked ran when he joined them
"nothing concerning this here" Roman answered
the police and the forensics came, they did what they needed to do and left.
so during the week it was chaos, they had to fly Afet's dad back home with the corpse, and obviously not in public flights, so they had to ask for favors from wealthy people to borrow their private jets, then their own preparations for the burial king. it all came together, finally they were left with only one burial to focus on, on Friday night, they buried the king, then the following day the community came for his memorial service, afet didn't come, Roman got so worked up, after the service he drove to her house, she was in the pool relaxed
"you're half naked and drinking, you couldn't come to burry my grandfather afet?" he asked
"you said you'll see me after the funeral, didn't you?" she asked
"wow, you're right, that's what I said, I'm here to pack my stuff, and I'll be selling this house in three months time, find a new place to stay in" Roman said going inside the house, he got inside the bathroom without even knowing what he was going to do there, there was blood or red water, he wasn't sure, when he turned, afet was right behind him
"is this where your stuff is?" she asked
"what's in the tub?" he asked
"what does it look like?" she asked
"afet what is wrong with you, you have changed" he said seeing how scary afet looked
"don't you call me with that ugly name again, you are just so stubborn, it wasn't supposed to come to this" she said
"what are you talking about?" he asked, he also tried to move but afet blocked his way, so they were still in the bathroom on the door
"I'm talking about you bloody prince, my mission was to win you over, take your power but you just had to ruin it all by listening to your crazy parents and the man you call a seer, listen, I'll get what I need, I told you, I promised you that we will get married then I'll leave you poor, remember? I wasn't joking, but now the plans have changed a bit, I won't only leave you poor, but I'll leave you lifeless in the pool of blood" she said and laughed, Roman suddenly realized the person next to him isn't the young lady he thought she was, she's actually very old,
"who are you?" he asked trembling
"your worst nightmare, Roman I am the great grandmother of the girl afet, yes, I was born in royalty, my father is royalty, my mother's side isn't, so I'm half royal, my mother was chased out of the royal house because she was a witch, we suffered long enough until she died, but she passed her magic to me, so I used it wisely, I lured rich people to me, I learned all the tricks, tried them and they all were a success, I became the witch leader, the head of the covenant, no one is powerful like me, so I got married to a very successful man, he was the governor of India, educated, he had a family but I took him anyways, so we became rich, I started the rituals, to get more richer, he thought I was an educated lady, my spells didn't work much on him, so I sacrificed him, and because he was a powerful man, I got filthy rich, I was pregnant when he died, with my two beautiful girls, twins, then they got married to the same man, he too was very successful, we sacrificed him too, but before that, I slept with him so I can his seed, and I did, my son. my girls got married again and fell pregnant, they lived their husband's, so I let them be, and because their men were wealthy, I didn't have any worried, they were taken care of, one of my girls, her husband became a priest, what a shame, they were then born again, because they lived traveling, they started adopting foreign cultures and brought them home, I didn't like that one bit, and the man started seeing my secrets, so I killed him, and ate him alive, infront of my daughter, she couldn't take it, she became lunatic, she was no use to me and her kids, so I killed her, used her for rituals, then her kids came to stay with me, I tought them about my ways, they understood and loved it, then my other daughter was killed by her abusive husband, he shot her and their son, I avenged her, I killed him before he could make it to prison, in a very terrible way, and my grandkids and I ate him.
the kids grew, that's Afet's mother and her sister Eda, they became my replacement for my dead kids, I loved them so much, Afet's mother, Selin fell in love with a very poor man, and you know no spell can be cast on true love, so I failed dismally to break them up using my magic, I let them be until one day the boy came in my house to visit selin, he kind of noticed a few odd stuff, but selin begged me to spare his life, I did, she was pregnant, so I took the baby to its father, the baby wasn't named, but I heard they named her Afet, I couldn't care less, until I became hungry for blood, to live longer, I need to have fresh blood, to get more power I need blood Like yours, to change into something, I need to have its blood, so I started feeding on Afet's blood, she was still an infant, the doctor didn't know what was wrong with him, I let them to an Indian seer with my spell, so I can use her to give me her soul, but I failed to take her soul, she would always go back to her body, so I made her stupid, I made her hate her appearance, she's crippled, and she hates life, but I will not eat her, her mother will hate me, and I love her so much to bear her hatred, she doesn't even know afet is with me, all this while, I had to be her to get you, I've noticed you, you're young, smart, rich and sexy, I enjoyed our sex, but that's not why I'm here, I felt sorry for you because you loved me, for the first time in my life I felt lived and appreciated, you cared, so it was difficult for me to go ahead with my mission, but what happened on my wedding day angred me and reminded me that I'm here to suck you dry, I'll use your soul to wake my sick son, then use your heart for my wealth, then eat your body" she said looking at him in the eyes
"did you love me though?" Roman asked
"don't ask me that, you're trying to confuse me" she hit her head on the wall
"I loved you, and I love you even more now that you were honest, you know I love honest people" Roman said, hoping it works.
she laughed, "I can feel your energy, you hate me, you are scared of me, you disgusted by me, and you want to escape, I feel your heart beat out of your chest, very bad, very very bad" she said
"I swear, I'll give you what you want, just let me go" he begged
"but it's your soul I need, a soul" she said
"please" Roman cried louder
she tried to touch him but he fought, so they had to fight until it got worse, Roman hid her head against the wall until she fell, he ran out, grabbed keys, and drove out, but he couldn't get home,
"you can never run away from me" she said, Roman lost control of his car, it rolled 20 times since he was on high speed, not hitting anything, just rolling, then it was light out.
