Spellbound: The Awakening of Aislin Collins
Margeaux Laurent
- “I
- have
- many
- secrets,
- but
- the
- one
- I
- must
- hide
- at
- all
- costs
- is
- the
- one
- that
- keeps
- threatening
- to
- surface.
- I
- turned
- from
- the
- woman’s
- screams
- as
- the
- flames
- licked
- at
- her
- feet.
- I
- started
- to
- run,
- but
- I
- was
- stopped
- by
- a
- booming
- voice,
- “Witch!”
- the
- man
- roared
- as
- he
- pointed
- at
- .
- .
- .
- ME?
- I
- was
- terror-struck,
- completely
- powerless
- against
- the
- witch
- hunter.”The
- witch
- hunter’s
- eyes
- locked
- onto
- mine
- and
- time
- suspended.
- In
- that
- moment,
- my
- life
- was
- forever
- changed.
- As
- an
- evil
- force
- overtook
- me,
- I
- was
- carried
- away,
- protected
- by
- a
- mysterious
- stranger
- who
- disappeared
- as
- quickly
- as
- he
- arrived.
- Now,
- the
- witch
- hunter
- haunts
- my
- every
- step,
- and
- my
- protector
- appears
- in
- my
- every
- dream.
- I
- am
- undeniably
- in
- love,
- but
- mother
- is
- suspicious.
- Rumors
- have
- spread
- through
- town.
- Something
- evil
- has
- settled
- here.
- It
- lurks
- in
- the
- woods,
- cloaked
- by
- dark
- magic.
- Animals
- have
- been
- found
- mutilated,
- and
- men
- patrol
- the
- forest
- to
- hunt
- this
- unknown
- malice.
- They
- will
- not
- find
- the
- creature,
- it
- is
- not
- interested
- in
- them.
- It
- is
- after
- me.
- I
- am
- a
- witch,
- and
- the
- creature
- is
- the
- servant
- of
- the
- witch
- hunter.
- I
- am
- their prey.
