BXBX NOVEL Chapter 278 Reunion Of Sisters
“Where do you think you are going?” Lucian, who was still holding Hazel in his arms and running towards the annex building, jumped away.
He was about to sweep the person away with a spell. But his eyes filled with relief when he noticed that it was none other than Anne.
“You are here? I thought that you..” he shook his head, “we do not have much time to waste. Her energy.. It felt like she was suffering from the overflow of energy.
I tried to wake her up but she is not responding!” Anne nodded as she knew it since the time she had seen him.
She stopped flowing into the air and stared at her. The moment her feet touched the ground, she took hazel from Lucian and disappeared.
“Hey, why are you leaving me alone?” he asked as he looked around panicked.
“It is for your own well being. Rafael had gone berserk, he would soon come looking for you.” he heard the voice lingering into the air before every sign of them vanished..
It took him a few seconds to realize what happened but it only infuriated him further.
“Arghh!” he shouted and kicked the nearby tree with anger as he ran a hand into his air.
Anne teleported in the room where they have spent half of their life together.
She laid the unconscious body of hazel gently on the bed and then stroked her hair with eyes full of love and concern.
“Oh Hazel! No matter how much I try to keep you away from danger. You always get entangled in life and death situations.” she shook her head but the suffocating feeling of her heart did not leave her.
“Then stop trying! Since then I have been so pathetic that I need protection.“ The eyes of hazel that were closed for long snapped open but it was dark like the nightless sky.
Her scalera was shining silver but the internal part of her eyes were completely black when she stared at Anne.
“I thought I have been taking care of you but in these two decades, has the role been reversend An?”
“….” Anne blinked again and again as if she could not believe that she was seeing.
Her trembling hands moved closer to touch her when she sucked in a deep breath. It was uncertain whether she was shocked or afraid while looking at the woman.
“Be.. bell!?” Hazel rolled her eyes as she sat on the bed and looked around.
“The room is dirty and small. Have we spent our new life here?” She stood up and took a round as if she was looking at the room for the first time and then nodded her head.
“At least it has clean and warm vibes.”
“Bell! You.. you were sealed!” Hazel turned to look at the witch with a slight frown on her face but it did not look like she was angry.
“Is that what you want to tell your sister after meeting her in two decades?” her voice was teasing but Anne only shook her head.
“You know that if the seal would break completely and you would come back then they would know.
The moment your presence would take over hazel, not only Rafael but all the witch’s clan would know that you are back.
Their hatred for you and their desire to kill never faded. Even if they have to face another massacre, all the witches would come forward to kill you.” Hazel raised a brow as if she had heard a joke in spite of the grave face of Anne and her stained voice.
“What is new in that? They take me as an abomination to the witches. For them, I am the sign of evil and it would be better to kill me to spread light.
What hypocrisy! Since when killing is the sign of light when I have never taken the initiative to hurt someone.
All those deaths were in my self defense.” she stated in a cold but blank voice that was devoid of any warmth when Anne sighed.
No one knew better than her how much hazel was tormented just because her eyes were dark and looked evil.
“Haven’t Rafael killed all of them?” she asked, coming back and sitting back on the bed.
She held Anne’s hands and pulled her on the bed too.
Anne took a deep audible sigh as she sat beside Hazel who leaned on her shoulders and wrapped her hands around her shoulders.
“I missed you, An!” she muttered as she nudged her face on her shoulders and Anne smiled softly.
She patted the head of Hazel. She was still like a kid even when others thought that she had a nasty nature. She just carved love and affection.
“Yes! He had killed all those who had taken part in the massacre but they left parchments. Since they were sure that you would come back, they made sure that others would be ready for another incantation and rituals.”
“Tsk! They just wanted to show their authority by killing me. I have told you to leave too but I am greedy to say I am glad that you are here.“ Hazel sneered at the mention of those old and dark witches who treat her as an evil illness.
“It would have been better that I kill them first instead of waiting for them to kill me in this life.” she added but when she noticed the body of Anne freeze, she became concerned.
“Anne, why could seal not be broken? Though hazel try to behave bravely. She is weak.” Anne lowered her eyes because it was her mistake. She had grown up hazel as a sheltered kid that needed not learn the rules of war.
“Bell, if your seal broke, the sign that you are alive would go to every living witch. I did not know how many would participate in a war against you but if you are prepared for it and wanted to take the chance then i would not seal you again.
No matter what you decide, I will always be with you and support you till the end.”
