Chapter 3 : Pitch Black
School was over for the day. Muna and her friends couldn't find any sign of the girls and Raymond anywhere.
" They must have known that we were going to follow them after school " Muna said.
" I don't think so.... " Danielle said.
" Muna is right because while we were still at the cafe I tried to listen to conversation with my sharp hearing but I couldn't hear anything except from murmuring sounds ", Sharon said.
" They must have shielded themselves with a strong spell so we wouldn't hear what they are discussing " Danielle said and groaned angrily, " Arggh, I just can't wait to get my hands on that red head who called me a slut. "
" You will get your chance, but for now we have to find a way to break off the spell on Raymond ", Sharon said.
" I still don't get why she would use her spell on Raymond...I mean that's not how to get someone to like you or be with you ", Muna said, frowning.
" I wonder how he will react when he gets his senses back ", Sharon said.
" He would definitely be mad ", Danielle added.
" How are we going to find Raymond and break off the spell? We don't know which way they went and we don't know where they live, I don't even have his number ". Muna said.
" And tomorrow is Saturday...." Sharon said.
" Danielle, could you do a locator spell and find him " Muna asked.
" Yes, but my spell book is home and I need to hold something that belongs to his spell. That's the only way I can find him ", Danielle said.
"Oh my ... How are we going to find anything that belongs to him now ", Sharon said in an annoyed tone.
" That's the problem .....Elle, is there no other way to find him, " Muna asked, and she shook her head.
" Great.... Witches ??? " Sharon said with a scoff.
" What ?? At least I'm trying to do something here. What have you done, huh " Danielle said.
" Excuse you... You haven't done anything yet ", Sharon fired back.
" Okay...okay guys, please this is not the time for us to fight " Muna said, placing her hands on their shoulders. " Let's just find a way of getting something that belongs to Raymond. "
" But how ? " Danielle said and Muna tried to think of something when an idea suddenly popped inside her head.
" Hey guys, I think I've got an idea "she said.
" What " Sharon and Danielle said in sync.
" His locker. Maybe we could get his book or anything from his locker. "
" Yeah...Smart thinking Muna " Danielle said, and the trio went to Raymond's locker to see if they could find anything in there.
"Oh my God, it's locked " Sharon said.
" It's no problem " Danielle said, with a mischievous smirk on her face.
" What ? You've got any idea how to open the...." Sharon was cut short by the clicking sound of the lock in the locker. " Oh I see ", She said.
" You guys seem to forget that you've got a witch friend here " Danielle said proudly.
" And we're so grateful for that, so let's just find something useful in his locker and go " Muna said.
They saw some books and pictures of him in his locker and Danielle took one of the pictures and they closed the locker back.
" This will do ", she said after putting the picture in her backpack.
" How long is it gonna take until you find him ", Muna asked.
" I don't know, but I think I should be able to find out where he lives before tomorrow morning. I'll call you guys ", Danielle said.
" Okay... We will see each other tomorrow and we will break off the spell before school tomorrow, Sharon said.
" Yeah bye " Muna said and waved her friends goodbye and she went to get Nathan from his class so they could go home.

" Did you have any idea of what made Alpha change his mind to go look for his mate " Dexter, a blonde-haired girl in his mid twenties, whispered to Ryder, who had his arms crossed over his chest.
He was Jayden's Gamma, third in command, while Ryder, Jayden's Beta, who was also in his mid twenties, was second in command.
" Why don't you go ask him yourself " Ryder answered, without looking at him.
" What ? Do you want him to snap my neck into two ", Dexter said all the while staring at Jayden who was sitting on the back seat.
His eyes were closed but he wasn't sleeping.
" But he told you not me ", Dexter said again, and Ryder rolled his eyes.
" Focus on the road please, we don't want to have an accident now " Ryder said and Dexter pouted his lips.
" A simple Yes or No would have been fine, you know "he said.
" Both of you Shut up !!! " Jayden said when he couldn't bear their annoying whispers anymore and his Beta and Gamma immediately shut their mouths in order not to provoke their Alpha.

The next day was Saturday. Muna slept longer than usual as she had been up all night watching an interesting movie on Netflix, so she had slept late.
She woke up panting hard with beads of sweat on her forehead. She had that dream again of the Werewolf chasing her in the dark forest.
She would always wake up after the Werewolf had turned into a man in torn clothes and would repeat the same words again: ' Mine '.
What could this mean ?
She remembered Sharon's words about her being a mate to a Werewolf, but she would never allow that to happen.
" Please Sierra, don't let me be a mate to a Werewolf ". She prayed to the moon goddess.
She got out of bed and walked into her bathroom to brush her teeth and, after that, she joined her family for breakfast at the dining table.
" Why the gloomy face today Muna, is there something wrong ", Aunt Evelyn asked as she drank her tea and Muna gazed into her red eyes, which reminded her of her father.
" It's nothing mom " Muna said as she ate her bacon and eggs.
" Are you sure ? You can tell me anything you know "
Muna sighed.
She then told her Aunt all that had happened at school and how they were hoping for Danielle to use her locator spell and find out where Raymond lives so they could free him off the spell.
" She told us to expect her call this morning but I haven't seen her call " Muna said.
" Don't worry.... I know Danielle's spell would work ", Aunt Evelyn said.
" I hope so. "
" Mom, can I go see Kent after breakfast? He said he wanted to show me his new bicycle ", Nathan said.
" Sure. "
" I know that's your way of getting away, Nate ", Muna said, smirking, and then there was a knock on the door.
" I'll go see who it is ", Uncle Desmond said, and left.
" Are we expecting any visitors this morning " Muna asked, and Aunt Evelyn shrugged her shoulders.
A few minutes later, Uncle Desmond came back with an angry face.
" What's wrong? " Evelyn asked.
" There are a group of men, Werewolves actually outside our house. They said they wanted Muna to come with them. "
" Werewolves ? " Muna said.
" Why ? For what reason " Evelyn asked, worried.
Before Desmond could say anything, two tall men in black suits entered the house. One had silver hair and the other one had black hair. The silver-haired man was the one who answered her question, " Because she is our Alpha's mate. "
" What ? " both Muna and Evelyn said in sync.
" What do you mean I'm your Alpha's mate or have you gotten some screws loosed in your head " Muna said.
" Maybe there has been some mistake, she's not the one for your Alpha " Evelyn said.
" The Mate bond is not a mistake. Now step out of the way "the black-haired man said.
" Mate bond my foot....You two get out of here this instant " Muna said angrily.
" Not without you ", the one with black hair said, and the two men walked towards Muna to carry her out of the house by force.
" Don't you two get close to meeting or you'll be sorry for yourselves " Muna said.
She wished she had powers like Danielle or she was as strong as Sharon, but she was human, a powerless human and she hated herself for that.
Aunt Evelyn and Uncle Desmond tried to stop them but they were easily overpowered. Muna looked at her side for anything she could use to protect herself but there was none.
The two men finally got hold of her and were about to carry her out when the silver-haired man shouted in pain.
Nathan had used his sharp fangs and pierced them into his leg and the man let out a low growl as a warning.
" Leave my sister alone " Nathan said in his childish voice as he glared dangerously at the two men with his red eyes.
Muna watched as the silver-haired man's hand turned into sharp claws and was about to use it to stab her brother, but she quickly bit his other hand to gain his attention.
" Run Nate, run upstairs and don't come out ", She said to her brother, who immediately ran upstairs.
" Get your flirthy hands off me this instant " She said, glaring at them.
" This one is a stubborn one "the black-haired man said.
" Hmm ... Let's just take her to meet Alpha ", the silver-haired man replied.
Muna kept on thrashing and screaming to be released until she was finally out of the house and they finally left her alone.
She looked around and saw up to ten men in black suits surrounding a black car and she crossed her arms over her chest, still angry.
" Well, where is your stupid Alpha and let me give him a piece of my mind ", She said and she could see their widened eyes after she called their Alpha ' Stupid '.
She knew how much they respected and feared their Alpha but she didn't give a damn about it. She just wanted to see him face to face and let him know that he was mistaken and she could never be his mate.
Seeing that no one answered her. Her gaze fell on the black car and she knew that their so-called Alpha would be inside the car probably staring at her through the tinted windows, but she didn't care.
She just wanted to get it over with.
" I know you can hear me, so just get out of the car you dimwit ", She said, and at the same time, Evelyn and Desmond came out of the house with sad faces.
They knew that they were no match for the Werewolves, so there was nothing they could do except to stand and watch what was going on.
A few minutes passed and there was no sign of someone coming out of the car and that got Muna more angry.
" Useless bunch of Werewolves and useless Alpha " She said.
" How dare you say that to our Alpha ", said a brown-haired man as his yellow eyes turned back in anger.
" Like I care... I'm going back inside my house as I've got better things to do than standing here and waiting for some so-called Alpha to come out of his car ", Muna said, and she turned around to leave when she suddenly heard the sound of the door behind opening and she halted in her tracks.
She turned around to see the men give way for someone to step out of the car. Muna felt her heart stop beating when she finally saw their Alpha.
She couldn't help but scan him from head to toe. He was also wearing a black suit that fitted his perfectly toned body just like his men. He was about six feet tall, he was lean and muscular.
Her eyes moved to his face and, God !!! He was an epitome of beauty. No ! He was the most gorgeous and handsome man she had ever set her eyes upon. He had a strong defined jaw with a straight pointed nose, his lips were gorgeously red and it reminded her of Raymond's.
He had short black shinning hair and she felt like running her hands through them to feel how soft it was.
Muna could feel the strong power radiating from him in such a way she couldn't describe. She could feel the Alpha aura coming from him.
And when she locked eyes with him she swallowed so hard. His eyes were pitch black and that was not a good sign of werewolves.
His eyes were supposed to be yellow not black, meaning he was angry and she had gotten on his bad side.
