Thristy for us

The tree looks so impressive in the middle of this field with no one to see and no loud voices anymore. Why is it here so quiet?

“I must say you did a great job, at first,” Merina says with a laugh, isn't she that amused by me? “You get what you wanted, what do you want more?” She laughs a real laugh now.

“I want to live forever, and this love thing is not working out for me. I hoped it would help me to live and not reincarnate again, but I was wrong, stupid me.” She looks now not that happy, more like she wants to destroy us.

“That's why everyone restores their memory, and you change back to the monster you were, isn't that great? I had the feeling you would be pleased,” Merina said in a voice like she liked the games she was playing.

“Grab her!,” yells Varnic's father, pointing his finger at me. “Oh, my problem is already solved for me, simple for me. Do love a good show,” laughs Merina.

Suddenly, Varnic jumps in front of his father and his followers. Or his family, Varnic never told much about them. But it is not Varnic who stands before them as a human being. No, he stands before them in his dog form, with the white fur illuminated by the moonlight.

A silence falls, everyone puzzled. “The changeling in action. At last, I can admire one of them. What nature herself doesn't come up with,” Merina says enthusiastically. “What a monstrosity you are,” hisses Varnic his father who looks at him in horror. “You know well enough what I am and why I have become like this,” growls Varnic who can talk perfectly in this form, as if he were simply standing before us as a human being.

His father is clearly not pleased with his answer and wants to go on the attack, but before he can, he is stopped. “Stop, Evan,” we hear a voice say from behind that I don't immediately recognize, though I've heard it once before. Once in my past life, life caught up with me again.

Then a beautiful woman comes up beside me. She has long black hair like me, and her eyes radiate a warmth I don't recognize. I remember her with the red hazy eyes, eyes that have gone out just like her love.

“Aunt Lucy,” I Whisper to her, and she smiles at me. “Lucy,” the father of Varnic said in dismay like he couldn’t believe she was here or even of the estate. “This is going to be very interesting,” Merina says enjoying the tumult that is starting going around.

“How can you be here? How are you nog locked up in our house?” I ask her, still not sure if this is real or a dream. “Avery when you did this unselfish act to give your love to Merina, we got all cured of the course she did on our family. She thought to trick you and just only suppress your cure, but she made a mistake by our band she forgot.” I smile happily to her, with still questions. Am I happy that I didn’t only cure Varnic but also my family who hadn’t had a chance in life? “And Dad and Diana, they cured also, not?” I asked Merina or Lucy I don’t know who knows the most at this time.

“Lovely Avery, she didn’t cure them they tricked them with a spell to forget what they really are, but they never cured. Your sister is lying in the hospital sick and your father dear,” She swallows with her last words and tears start to build up in my eyes, she killed my father!

I wanted to grab Merina, but before I could, I felt a hand on my shoulder. “It’s not worth it,” Varnic said back in his form. “You are choosing the enemies. You can die also by the enemies,” Varnic’s father growls to his son. He didn’t understand what we had to endure this whole year of suffering. I must say I would do it again. This was the most unselfish act, and I am proud of what I have done. “Done with this act. I have work to do,” Merina said pointing with her hands in the air.

“Are you going to reverse this spell of yours?” I asked her, not knowing what she had in store for us. “Yes, do you think I will give you your love back and just let you be happy? Do you think you can trick me? You are a Turborn and I promised never to let a Tuborn live without misery.” Merina says in a voice full of hate.

“This happened centuries ago, Merina, can’t you just stop this madness and enjoy the life you have?” Lucy asked her, to give her some common sense because she is made as hell. All of this because she could get the love she wanted? That’s right this is something I remember out of the book before this madness started.

Merina, the child of a lord, wanted the love she was promised, but her loved one chose another girl. Stacy Tuborn stole her love Evan Elys who fell for Stacy when she walked in the park behind him and drowned him in with her beautiful voice talking to her mother. Merina noticed at first that they were going behind her back. They didn't know that Merina was out of a whole family of witches. Her father begged her to let it go because when you let in dark magic you will be cursing yourself. That day when she lost it and cursed the Tuborns and the Elys family, she cursed herself with her own curse. She can live one year to die, to come again in a hundred years.

If I count the years since this started, I know this is her second time reincarnated. You would think we would be with more, but as the Tuborns and Elys family took someone and married them they got the curse like a disease with them. That’s why my father went this long time waiting to have a family he knew they got cursed to. Just like Aunt Lucy and some others upstairs who are also cursed and born into the family. Our father's brother had also kids who lived in our house, that is also something I found out later in the book.

Our love story is not a pretty one, and now we are here still fighting against each other and not the Witch. And before we could do something, she said her damn spell; “Reno to.”

Gone she is with us, still standing in the middle of the backyard with our families over each other like a war is going to start. Lucy is changing I feel it, I feel also my change. This is not going to go to our advantage, with the bounded ones looking like they could kill us.

“Come, we go,” the father of Varnic says with a smile a last smile to Lucy, and a nod to Varnic.

He sealed his faith to stay with us. This is harder than a fight, he gives his son an ultimatum. He knows he will die with us and his father knows he will come back begging or his father will him to die with us.
