A Mix Of Fae And Human
"Alice…Jasper is here as well"
"Jasper?"
"yeah, he's with Edward"
"Is he alright?"
"Copacetic from what I see, they are taking us to Zafrina" Bella filled Alice in, she was inside Edward's head without him knowing; getting inside Edward's head was not a shocker to be a big no-no by Edward, but she had to see what was going to happen to her.
"Zafrina?" Alice sounded alarmed.
"Yeah, why?"
"Nothing…"
Bella Swan focused her mind on Edward's and winced involuntarily as she saw what he was seeing. Something in her wanted to care for him. He was a cocky bastard, but he still has some sort of feelings. Behind all that me man, you women…she knew there was a soft guy. She was sure of it.
Edward stopped infront of The Amazonian's place. He wanted to get in there and get it over with so he could leave and never come back again.
Edward didn't want to think of where he was going to enter. He didn't mind Zafrina, but a clan full of witches made his skin twitch from discomfort.
Bella was laying in his arms, unconscious , her head rolled back.
"Do you think she will help us?" Jasper wondered to Edward.
"Most likely…no"
"Are we gonna use force then?" Jasper tried again.
"Most likely…yes"
"But we have the UnSeelie Court's consent. I doubt she will refuse to that"
"We aren't part of the treaty" Edward murmured back. He didn't want any part of the ridiculous one clan rule. He was a red blooded male fae that did not want to bow down to some Hippocratic female that hardly knew anything about the opposing clan. Bothe fae queens where ignorant.
"Why have you darkened my doorsteps Hounds?"Zafrina opened her wooden door wide and stepped out of a dark shady room, whispers and glass clinking buzzed in the background. Jasper gritted his teeth and hissed at her in response to her rude welcoming.
Zafrina appeared to be in her thirties. She was dressed in a heavy dark clothing, her hood raised up framing her long and dark chocolate face, her slanted hazel eyes where outlined with kohl.
"We have two unconscious hermits sacrificed to you like sheep. Think you can bring them back Zafy?" Edward thrusted me towards Zafrina and pretended to let go, but he rolled his arms and my unmoving body slammed into his chest.
"Why should we help two dark faes?" two women flanged either sides of Zafrina.
"If you want to live… then I suggest you do"
"Threatening will not get you anywhere"
"What my buddy here was trying to do…was flattering you lovely three ladies. We came straight to you as soon as we found out that someone is challenging you."
Bella saw that the three women suddenly went rigid when he said challenging you. It was fascinating how some people reacted to certain words.
"I was thinking that, maybe, you three ladies could show daddy who's the real bitches in this yard"
Jasper glanced at Edward and rolled his eyes. As usual, Edward was whoring himself.
"What do you exchange with us if we assist you?" Seena cocked her dark eyebrow at Edward in suggestion.
"How about we discuss these terms after you agree to help us witch" Jasper jumped in and growled at Senna.
"We accept it Hound. But we need to set up some conditions" Zafrina stepped back and cleared the way for Edward and Jasper to walk in.
"What kind of conditions?"
"Like why a half fledging fae has a block in her mind" The other women fell into a step behind Jasper and Edward. Edward's instincts started screaming.
He hated people walking behind him. He slowly started shifting to Masen, he muscles tensing and right on the mark, Jasper sensed Edward's discomfort and gave space for Edward to be walking next to the third witch.
I snapped back and stared shocked. They cant be talking about her. There is no way in hell am I fae. I-damn it, why is this happening to me?
"Is this true?" Bella asked Alice. The state that they were in earned her a chance to grill Alice with questions.
"what do you mean Bella?"
"You know what, Alice. Am I really half fae?"
"Well…Edward was the one who was supposed to tell you this. But… you have a bit of fae inside you"
"I cant believe this." Bella muttered to herself, she was in full disbelief.
"Bella…what did you expect?"
"Why didn't you tell me?"
"It wasn't in my place to tell you, I'm very so sorry"
"Whatever Alice"
Bella slipped back to Edward's mind and tried ignoring Alice's frantic screams to get her to listen.
"…you are correct, but that will not help. We need a potion to block them." Zafrina shook her head. She was standing behind a wooden counter that had multiple jars. Witches and warlocks were scattered all around the room.
Edward wrinkled his nose. Nasty creatures. They were huddled in and whispering, but he could feel their beady eyes watching him.
They didn't feel comfortable around him. Good, he didn't want them to be.
"What about my mate?" Jasper jumped in. Edward felt sorry for him. He was too attached to a fragile object.
"I need to awake the fledging, then your women." Zafrina grabbed her glasses from Seena's hands.
"I want to know why this one is special" The third witch spoke again, her accent thick.
"Not now, now, I want to know how you are going to repay us" Seena coiled her hand around Edwards arm.
Masen immediately without a thought snatched his blade with his other hand and slashed the third witch across the face.
She let out a loud shriek that stopped the wiccans around them dead on track and watch the altercation.
Masen watched one man in particular, the man dropped on all four and morphed into a rat, quickly running away.
Some witches hurried out with super speed, while most of the others vanished in an eye blink.
Zafrina glanced up from Bella's body and stared at Masen for a moment before placing the green mush back on her scalp.
As Bella watched through Edward's eyes, she struck in awe. Those witches, those warlocks…with all that powerful magik…completely went into panic mode from Masen.
"You will pay for this mortal!" Seena grabbed her wand and raised it up in the air, pointing it at Masen. "How dare you reject me? I shall cast a curse on the women you will fall inlove with, a curse that will boil in her very own blood!" mist formed around her and she disappeared, her voice echoed for a bit after she left.
Before anyone could blink, the third witch disappeared as well.
Jasper glanced at Alice then at Zafrina.
"She will return" Was all she said.
"I'd like to see her try" Masen snarled, venom flowed in his mouth. His thoughts where raging and clustered everywhere.
"She is just humiliated, no hard feelings. Now let us talk about the half fledging. What is she to you?"
"She has something the queen wants" Jasper said.
"I assumed, and what is that?"
"She knows of knowledge the queen desperately needs"
"The missing pieces?"
"What's it to you?"
"Just curious. I want to help, I want the child to remain with me"
"Dream on it bitch" Masen snarled in Zafrina's face again.
"Who will take care of her? She is yet reaching the age when her power awakens, she will need energy. Can you hounds provide that?"
"She isn't your concern" Masen glared.
"But she is valuable, and I love valuable objects"
"Well valuable things are pricey. This women isn't something you can afford witch. Bring her back and I shall spare your miserable life"
"Threatening me will not help. Tell me, does she know what she is?"
"No"
"I think she does now"
"How so?"
"Your eyes. They have a mix of brown in them. She heard every word"
"Damn it women, get out of my head or so help me!"Masen shouted in his head at Bella.
"Help you? I can't believe you knew what I was and you never told me."
"Damnation women, I'm not required to babysit you. Stay out of my head or I will harm you physically"
"You bastard, just wait until I can move my arm's muscle!"
Bella heard him growl in response, but she slipped out of his mind and stayed where she originally was.
Masen felt regret immediately as he kicked the table hard startling Zafrina who raised her eyebrows at him. He didn't mean threaten Bella, he was such a fucking mess sometimes and hated how he acted towards her. She was just soo god damned…naïve.
He wasn't even able to touch her like a normal person, let alone hurt her. Fuck, he was lost cause. He just wanted her conscious and walking. Screw Rosalie, she can go suck a dick for all he cared.
"Bella?" Alice sounded like she was quiet for a while, her voice sounded weak.
"What do you want Alice?"
"I'm sorry, I'll never hide anything from you. Its Edward, he is just so persuasive, and when he is Masen, its just too scary to argue with."
"Its fine Alice, I understand what you mean"
"So…do you forgive me?"
"Alice, you and I are head joined, it will be hard not to" Alice started grinning even though she knew that Bella couldn't see her and she couldn't physically grin in her state, but she knew that Bella could feel Alice's emotions, so that was good enough for her.
"I knew it! Bella just wait until we get out, so much shopping, I'll show you my friends and we can a-"
"Wohao, Alice calm down"
Zafrina felt the block slipping away. Who ever put the block inside the girl is hiding something very important. Zafrina tried figuring the person who put this block on…they were strong, but not strong enough. They were moving quick, she could feel them trying to manipulate the girl. But the girl was neither fully human nor fully fae, so it was hard.
She needed to keep an eye on the girl. But most important of all, the girl needs to go into hiding until they resolve the conflict. Zafrina couldn't pick a better person to guard the girl other than the Blood Hound Prince himself. He didn't belong to either fae clans. He was neutral. The only fae that was able to achieve this.
BELLA'S POV
"Do you feel it?" I groaned.
"I feel you pulling away, I think it's working Bella!"
"I don't feel very good, I'm regaining my body. I think I'm going to throw up" I moaned.
"Im so excited! I have always wanted to meet Zafrina after the witch carnival"
"Alice…stop screaming or I will tell them you want to stay unconscious"
"Don't you dare Isabella!" She squealed.
"I know, I know relax…oh god here it …."
I couldn't even finish my sentence because of the massive headache that captivated my mind. It was still dark and there was a small part of me that started panicking, what if this didn't work?
But then I heard someone groaning.
I recognized my voice from anywhere. A special perk of being yourself.
"Are you going to open your eyes or kill us in suspense?"
I opened my eyes and immediately felt my lunch defy gravity and I sat up just in time.
"That's disgusting. I'm horrified, I will never kiss your mouth. If you watched One Thousand Ways To Die you would see this episode where this lady waits in the locker rooms where a food contest is held, and she will wait for the men who ate the most, then release her freaky side and stick her finger down their throats so that they will throw up on her. She is naked of course. Naked and panting, I guess she has a fetish for warm mush down her body. Very disgusting. Just a heads up, I'm not into that, so try to keep your mush inside your stomach"
I grabbed the table cloth in front of me and wiped my mouth with it. Edward pushed a glass full of water across the table, I quickly lifted it up with a glare at him and gulped it down, washing it all. That bastard.
"Did I miss something? I saved you. You owe me, infact, I demand that from now on you kiss the very grounds I walk on" The bastard looks amused.
"You!" I hopped of the wooden counter effortlessly and marched towards him shoving my index finger towards his chest. "I cant believe you! Why didn't you tell me, I trusted you Edward, why would you hide what I was!" I cried out.
A look crossed over his face and he turned his head to the other side. His green eyes searched the wall on the other side.
"What was I supposed to say Bella?" I thought he wasn't going to answer, but he turned back and looked at me. His eyes softened.
"I thought we were friends!"
"friends? Bella I don't want to be your friend" He stared back at me.
I took a step back, my face full of shock. I don't know why it bothered me, but a little piece of me died just then. I didn't understand what I was feeling but I knew that I wanted a black holes to suck me out of the room. I wanted to bolt out of the room.
"Why?"
"You don't belong in this world Bella. We are different species" He replied, his eyes smoldering.
"But Zafrina and Alice- You said that I was half fae, we aren't completely different and back at your home… -when you tried to-" I couldn't finish because what happened there was one sided. It was me who wanted us to be more than just…damn it what was the word to describe this?
How stupid and ridiculous was I to think that he liked me. Masen hated my guts. He looked at me like I was the filthiest shit he has ever seen.
"Bella!"I turned around and felt Alice wrap her around me. "We are okay, I don't even feel tiered or weak. I feel so energized…"
I felt oblivious to Alice's exciting rant, her arms didn't feel like they were shaking me anymore. I don't know why it bothered me. I felt silly and pathetic. So what he didn't want me to be friends with him. Why would he anyways? I knew from the beginning that he only wanted to get inside my head. He didn't care.
"…I don't want to be your friend"
I didn't like him anyways. He was messed up, one second he is someone, the next he is another. He is giving me a whiplash . I can't even take Edward seriously and I can't have a conversation with Masen without feeling like I was having a mini seizure
Bastard.
Stupid gorgeous and manipulative bastard.
