CHAPTER 6

The second human Cal had come across was a lovely creature indeed. Her detached, emotionless, and cold-hearted attituded caught his attention immediately, like a moth to a flame. The female had been spouting off about the wretched witches and how they were taking over the Academy and that it just ’wasn’t right!’. She and the other person she had been speaking with were standing out in front of some type of shop at the corner of it and what looked to be an alleyway. He stood in the shadows of said alleyway and listened to her as she rambled on about eradicating the ‘evil things’ from the town. As she talked, Cal became enthralled by her voice, her opinions and enraptured by her physical beauty.

I must make her mine!He thought to himself as he continued to observe their interaction with one another. Cal was very curious as to why they seemed to be a few of a very few who seemed to remember the way life was before the powerful witch preformed her spell, breaking the cycle of hatred the hunters’ and witches had had for each other for centuries.

“Shh, Beth! Do not speak so loud,” the non-descript male standing next to her said in a loud, harsh whisper. “We are shunned and outcasted as it is. Please, do not make things any worse for us. If you are so dissatisfied with how life is, get out of Nahant, but please don’t make it any harder on those of us with whom choose to stay!” Cal chuckled at witnessing the male begging and pleading with a woman. This is indeed a strange world.

Beth scoffed at the guy, turning her piercing emerald green eyes to him, making him cower from her gaze, crossing her arms over her chest, appearing even more intimidating as she did so. “Nothing will change if we don’t do something to push change! I do not understand how everyone else around here has been so accepting of this change. It is like they’ve no idea there had ever been hunters’, witches, wars for centuries! I, however, remember everything, EVERYTHING! I will not allow their peaceful, ignorant bliss to continue on this way though. I will figure out a way to rid the world of the evil, demonic-witches!” She said witches like she had a bad taste in her mouth that she could not get rid of.

Cal listened intently as he watched them. The male suddenly turned and stormed away from her and Cal saw his opportunity to pounce and took it, metaphorically speaking. He stepped out of the shadows just as the lady turned on her heel to walk the opposite direction as the guy had gone. With a gasp she clutched her hand to her chest and took a step back in surprise of seeing him standing in the alley. “Aaah!” She shouted out with only a hint of fear in her voice.

A charming grin spreads across his face as he sauntered up to her. Fear left Beth replaced instead by curiosity over the stranger. Crossing her slender arms across her chest, her pastel silk blouse bunching up at the shoulders as she did so, she arched one of her well-manicured eyebrows, her icy stare causing a shiver to travel up Cal’s spine, intriguing him to learn more about the wonderous human.

Cal played on Joey’s emotions. Ella had broken up with him around the same time that Alina had died, leaving him broken hearted, leaving him as easy prey. The rotten fiend Cal, was able to turn Joey’s heart ache into hate and in doing so, was able to bend his will into doing his bidding. Joey became his right-hand man, his second in command. Thereafter it became increasingly easier to snatch people off the streets and in doing so, Cal sinisterly watched as his army grew ever so rapidly.

Joey ran a hand through his dirty-blonde hair, slicking it back as he tried to keep it from falling into his once warm, blue eyes, which now seemed to convey nothing but ice-cold shudders upon anyone he looked at. “They have begun to patrol the boarders of the neighborhood that the last of the humans reside in. It will not be much longer until we take control of that area as well. Soon there won’t be one ‘human’ left on this island.”

“Good, good.” Cal stated as he clapped his hands together and then proceeded to rub them back and forth as he looked out into the night, spotting lights in the far distance.
