The Witchery by Zoen Alyanna (free biff chip and kipper ebooks TXT) 📕

hallway earlier. His hair was that odd shade that you could not really judge if it was dark brown or black but at the tips all around it was like a flame. It was all a raging red. And he had almost black eyes that had a kind of golden flame color to the edges. He bent and shook my hand. I sensed a new energy from him.
“You. You are not a witch.” I stated simply. He smiled a little bit, flashing pointy canine teeth.
“Oh. You’re a Vampire. But, you don’t feel like a vampire.” I stated. Then I heard a door open and looked up to watch Haden stumble tiredly into the living room. He was about 6 foot and he was still shirtless his perfectly muscled chest smooth and warm looking. His hair was tousled form sleep and his cheeks were slightly flushed from sleep as well. He seen me and smile at me then walked over and sat to my right.
“So Demetri. What exactly is it that you are?” I asked as I shifter to lay in Haden’s lap with my legs sprawled over Luc.
“I am the first mix breed the boarding school has ever had. Half Vampire half Witch.” He said then sat down next to the other two boys.
“Hmm. That’s really interesting. Never felt anything like that. You have an affinity for Fire and a strange urge to take a little bite at lovely Haden and wipe the blood off my face and lick your fingers.” I stated simply reaching up a hand and twirling Haden’s hair around my little fingers. Demetri kind of shrugged.
“It’s in my nature. I can’t really help that. It’s kind of like being off balance and falling in the hallway, you know? Juss can’t help it, or change it once it’s happened.” Demetri said referring to our little scene in the hallway earlier. I giggled then mumbled “touché.” rolled over in Haden’s lap curling up.
“Well what are you still doing here anyway?” I asked him. He shrugged.
“If you’re not going to be at school I don’t see why I should go.” Haden stated simply.

Luc very carefully laid my legs on the couch and stood.
“Come on Liyra, we need to expand the house and add on 3 bedrooms and bathrooms, okay?” he asked I stood and nodded. Then Luc took my hand in his. I closed my eyes and when Luc and I looked at each other the house was bigger. Hooray! I felt kind of dizzy and began to fall when Demetri caught me. I kind of laughed then carefully sat down next to Haden.
“Well you guys go ahead and find your bedrooms I am going to bed. And obviously Liyra needs to go to bed. So goodnight see you all in the morning. I love you Liyra feel better in the morning.” Luc said as he walked over to me and kissed me on the cheek. Then he looked over at Haden.
“Watch her she is feeling kind of warm.” Luc said to Haden then turned and headed towards his bedroom.
“I love you Luc. Night, brother.” I called after him.
“Love you too Liyra. Sweet dreams, Sister” then he was in his room with the door closed. Then Benjamin went to his new room. And Percy and Demetri hung out in the living room I carefully stood and began to walk to my bedroom when I was swept up into Haden’s arms. I gave him a kiss on the cheek and laid my head on his chest. I was not feeling so well.

So I let Haden carry me into my bedroom then I walked into my bathroom. And sure enough, I got sick. Then I brushed my teeth stripped off my shorts and had Haden sloppily throw up my hair. I stumbled out into my bedroom and laid down on my bed. Haden sat down on the couch tell I scooted over and tapped the spot beside me. He kind of laughed, and then pulled off his pants where he was wearing basketball shorts. He had, had them on for gym. Then he climbed into the bed beside me. I covered him up with my comforter and snuggled up with him and fell asleep in Haden’s strong arms wearing his hoodie covered with my comforter in my bed. The best way to sleep when you’re sick. Well almost the best I probably would have felt better if Luc would have been just a bit closer to me. But hey I had to work with what I got.

When I woke up, light was shining down on my face through the window. Very slowly I opened up my eyes to see Haden sitting in my window seal. I slowly rolled out of bed and went to sit opposite of him. He smiled at me and kissed my fore head.
“Good morning sunshine! Feeling any better?” Haden asked as he stood up from the window seal. I nodded then stood up as well pulling the drapes back over my window.
“Much better, thanks. So what are you still doing here? Thought you would be home by now.” I said my voice sounding kind of raspy.
“Nah. I had to wait and make sure you were okay remember? Luc told me to watch you. He had to go to school with those three new guys. I was asleep when they left but Luc texted me and asked me not to leave until you were awake.” He explained. I nodded.
“So are you leaving?” I asked. He nodded and picked up his shirt from the floor slipping it on over his head. I kind of sighed.
“Mel, I will be back later I promise. I have to go home, talk with my stupid parents, get clothes and go to the school and get my work for the rest of the week. Just text or call me if you need anything. I promise I won’t be long. I hate leaving you here alone by yourself. But you can handle yourself. Love you Liyra. Bye.” Haden said as he finished tying his sneakers. I jumped up and grabbed him by the back of his sweatshirt.

Haden turned and looked at me kind of confused.
“Yea?” he asked “did I forget something?” I nodded then I wrapped my arms around his waist hugging him tightly. He chuckled and wrapped his arms around me pulling me close to him. I snuggled up to his chest and inhaled deeply, his scent taking over. Then I looked up into his Hazel eyes and smiled as I got up on my tip toes to kiss him lightly on the lips. He returned the kiss very gentle and hesitant. I pushed myself closer to him trying to make sure we were as close as possible. Then I drew my hands up around his neck. Pulling him down to deepen the kiss. I stumbled back a few steps and fell down on the bed pulling Haden with me. I rolled over on top of him then sat up straddling him. He chuckled again then leaned up and kissed me very softly.
“Liyra I love you. But I got to go now.” He said breathing deeply. I sighed then rolled off of him. He stood up off of the bed and re adjusted himself. Then he looked down at me on the bed and sighed. I kind of giggled as he bent and very carefully kissed me goodbye.
“Alright, see you later Haden. I’m just going to hop in the shower.” I said as I hopped up. I threw his hoodie on my bed, and then wiggled out of my shorts leaving them on the ground as I walked into the bathroom. I could hear Haden’s groans as he walked out of my room and leave. No, I have not slept with Haden. We just tease each other and laugh, I’m not ready for sex and I won’t do it until I find the right one and I’m ready. I giggled to myself then turned on the shower, finished undressing and got in.

After I got out of the shower I walked out into my bedroom and threw on some simple clothes. Just a pair of sweatpants, and a t-shirt. Then I walked out of my bedroom and went to Luc’s bedroom. His bed was made with clothes thrown all over it, he was obviously having clothing issues this morning. I laughed to myself as I picked up one of his hoodies and slipped it on. Then I looked around until I found my book (I want to read that later, knowing Luc he will lose it). Yes I literally mean my book, I wrote it and had it printed out then got them put into a hard cover with my name on the front. It’s not actually published I just wanted it to look like an actual book. I love to write but, I don’t want all my family reading what I write so I just give my one copy to whoever I want to read it. The whole book is all about Witches and Vampires, adventures of them, facts about them, myths about them, and then just some of the times in the Boarding School. Only I use code names for everyone. It’s a pretty good book, so I hear.

Once I had my book I walked out into the kitchen and picked up a piece of paper from the counter. It read:
Hey, Liyra,
I hate leaving you home alone like that.
So I will probably be home early.
Or I will send someone home possibly.
I don’t know yet. Anyway, please try and stay inside.
I don’t want you to be sick. Especially right now.
Call me or something when you wake up and find this.
Hard to sense you from the school.
I will pick all your school work up for the next 8 days,
So for now just relax and I will talk to you soon.
Lots of love
-Luc.
P.S. Try and stay out of trouble please? And soak your hand in hot water I will take you to the doctors when I get home. Prolly going to have to get a cast, sorry.

With a sigh I set the note back down on the counter and opened up the fridge I seen Orange Juice and immediately grabbed it. Once I had my Orange Juice and a huge chocolate muffin I went and sat down at the table. I turned on the stereo which sat on the counter and popped in my CD. The music blared filling the silent house and making me feel less alone, less abandoned. Music always made me feel better, if it weren’t for my little group of friends I would say that music is by far my best friend. It can comfort, motivate, sooth, cheer you up, and over all
