Chapter 12 - 12

Natasha's POV

I remained where I was and waited for them to all walk into Alyssa's room. Phoebe walked in last and just as she closed the door, I kicked my sandal across the floor and just as I wanted, it stopped at the door, preventing the door from closing completely.

I looked at both sides of the corridor before walking up to the door quietly and standing by the door to eavesdrop on them.

"So what is happening now?" Keelin asked and sat on the bed next to Alyssa.

"I went back to the Petrova witches and they helped me strengthen the spell to lock their mate bond," Alyssa replied and I once again quickly covered my mouth with my palm to silence my gasp.

She was really despicable. How long has she known that Alpha Jack was my mate? And how the hell did she find out before any of us could?

"What if she manages to get her hands on something belonging to Alpha Jack again and the bond breaks through like before when you are not there?" Phoebe asked.

Suddenly, the memory of Alyssa quickly snatching that compass from me flashed in my head.

I was right, it had something to do with that compass. When I picked it up, I suddenly forgot about all my anxiety and fear and all I wanted to do was to meet with Alpha Jack.

I felt the mate bond for a while and I knew that Alpha Jack could feel it too, but the instant Alyssa's snatches that compass from me, all of that disappeared and my fears returned.

"I made the Petrova witches do a little something about that," Alyssa said in a mischievous tone and I moved closer abit so I could hear every detail of whatever she wanted to say.

"When the moon rises today, I'm going to perform a simple spell and this time, whenever Natasha or Alpha Jack comes in contact with anything that belongs to either of them, the only thing that's going to be happening is more hate and disgust," Alyssa said with a wicked smirk and I clenched my fist subconsciously.

Spell when the moon rises hungh? Let's see how you successfully pull that off.

***

I closed the novel on the table and glanced up at the clock on the wall. It was evening already and the moon would come up at anytime.

I stood up immediately and shifted the chair I had been sitting on backward.

I got into my Sandals quickly and I hurried out of my room. I walked to Alyssa's room so I could see if she had left already, but I saw the door to her room open and I quickly hid behind a wall.

I watched as Alyssa walked out of her room carrying a small ash bag and dressed in a short black dress.

She looked at both sides of the corridor and closed the door before walking towards the exit.

I waited where I was for a while until she walked out of the door before coming out of hiding and walking towards the exit too.

I walked out of the door and gently closed it.

It was already dark and I could see the crescent moon in the sky.

I looked towards the left and saw Alyssa walking to the back of the house.

I quickly followed her behind and continued sneaking behind her till she finally stopped at the foot of the forest behind our house.

I watched as she reached into the bag in her hand and she took out somethings I couldn't see clearly from where I stood.

I noticed a golden glint and I squinted my eyes to make out Alpha Jack's compass in Alyssa's hand.

I quickly hid again as Alyssa looked around and over her shoulder to see if anyone was watching her.

Alyssa sat on the ground and she placed everything she was holding on the floor as the moon shone dimly.

You wench! I can't let you what you are about to do! You've made my life a living hell already, I won't allow you to take away the only thing that could possibly be my happiness and make my life even more miserable.

I'm not going to let you succeed in your evil plans. I'll stop you and I'll make sure that I expose you to the whole world.

I looked around me and spotted a stone on the floor. I glanced up at Alyssa again before bending down to pick the stone.

I grunted and swifly threw the stone at Alyssa. She yelped as the stone hit her on the head and she immediately touched her head.

"What the hell?!" She yelled and she turned around, the anger in her eyes immediately changing to shock as she spotted me.
