Magic Exists by Jinx (types of ebook readers .txt) 📖

the cats prowling around me curling up themselves. I closed my eyes and breathed slowly counting each breath. I felt drowsy and cold. I Got to 37 when i fell into a deep sleep.

- The dream -

I opened my eyes finding myself lying on a soft floor. I looked to my left and then to my right. I was in a big marble room, the floors gleamed and bright light poured in from the old looking windows. I sat up and found i was in a long white gown, it was very simple. The neck line was low enough to be decent with a small criss croos lace. The sleeves were wide and hung delicately past my hands. My blue hair was long, it was tied with a white string spiral down the tail that hung over my left shoulder. My tail stayed hidden beneath my dress but my ears were out in the open and i twitched them just to make sure.
Standing up i found i was my usual height of 5'6, i saw an open door at the far end of the room. I moved swiftly towards it looking back to check no one was watching me. The halls i ended up in were beautiful, the white stones looked clean and a long pale blue carpet was laid out on the floor. Beautiful paintings hung on the walls of places and people i had never seen or met. I felt familiarity in this place. It was like i was a child running through the halls. Following my curiosity.
There was skip in my step and faint music that i twirled and hummed along too. The melody ran through me like water, so sweet and gentle. I found another open door, that lead outside. I stood at the frame only seeing white light. I pushed my hand through feeling a summer breeze cross my skin and soft petals. A Smile lit up my face and i walked through onto soft green grass that was warm beneath my feet. The sun touched my face lovingly.
All Around were tree's i had never seen and smells that had not passed through my nose, I wondered slowly through the large garden listening to the voice of the birds and the song that travelled on the wind. I came across a lake, by the lake was a tree with a low branch that had a bench hanging from it.
On the bench was a magnificent woman, she had long silver hair and white ears that prouted from beneath the silky locks. She turned her pale yellow eyes to me and smiled.
"Come sit, dear child" She beckoned.
She put an arm around me pulling close as i sat down, letting my head rest on her shoulder and the bench swing lightly.
"It has been a while, my dear"
"Who are you?" I asked feeling calm as she stroked behind my ears.
"My name is Nala, I am you're guardian" I went to speak but she put a finger to my lips "Let me speak, you can ask questions after. You're parents asked me in paticular to watch over you when you were taken. It was twenty years ago that happened. I know you are only seventeen but there have been times when i couldn't see you. You were out of my sight for three years. You were five when you were taken. An attack on the kingdom. You're brothers tried to save you but they were young and were no match for you're captors. After that no one knew where you were. The King and Queen were distraught and so were you're brothers and sisters.
"There has been much trouble since you vanished. The King would've have had found you sooner if he could but many things stood in his way. The people have also missed you and tried to find you. Outside of the palace walls is a city of Clans, you're parents have many allies. The people made a statue of you, its a great monument. Before you ask why you are so speacial i will tell you. You are the ninth daughter, and that means you are the Travelling child. One who will venture into far places from home and bring back treasures and go on quests. My dear child, you are the most important child of the family. Because one day, you will have to venture into far off lands and finally return The Cresent of Nerisaga.
"When you wake you will wear the dress that has been brought for you, you will be taken by carriage, one of ours which we have sent, the White lions will be pulling the carriage. The others will follow behind in whatever form of transport. It is going to be a day long journey. That is all you need to know for now, my dear. Now you may ask any questions"
"Who Is Nerisaga?" I was curious, i wasn't sure about travelling or going on quests, it seemed so dangerous.
"A very noble and widely known woman, all creatures know of her. You loved to hear tales about her, every night after dinner. You used to tell the one of Nerisaga and the Jasmine Flower girl so well. It was you're favourite, you'll remember soon enough"
"And my cat's? They will come with me too, right?"
"Of course, they will go with no one else, but you. It's funny how you don't see the bond between all of you. But you will see soon enough"
"Will you be there when i arrive?"
"Yes, if not then i will tell you by message. But do no doubt it"
I liked sitting here, just talking with her, even though a frightful path seemed to lay ahead of me and i had no idea of where it was going to take me, i felt safe and at peace.
"Sleep, child, soon you will be home and you can rest you anxious heart" I felt her kiss my forehead as i closed my eyes.
She sang softly, the words i could not make out and the tune was lost in my memories as i fell peacefully into a slumber that held me with warm hands.

- End of dream -


(Tess' p.o.v)

We left the girl to sleep, Warren told me to go get some rest while the others packed for the journey. The girl would be riding fast and we had to keep up, no trouble could come to her. Especially not after we just found her.
I went down the familiar halls and into my room, i sighed and stripped away my leather corset and tight brown trousers. I pulled on a night gown and crawled underneath my heavy covers and letting my head rest on my very soft pillow. My bed felt empty with just only me in it but i had to put up with it for now i guessed. It was such a strange thing being alone in this room.
I looked up to the large painting that hung against the violet walls. The picture was of me and my mate. His dark copper hair tied back from his face with a few stubborn strands hanging on his forehead. His bright Blue eyes looked to me, he was dressed in a long top that stopped at the middle of his thighs. His arms were around me. I was dressed in pale green, a long dress hugged my top half and falling loosely around my legs and pooling around my feet. The sleeves barely touched my arms, they were so light and floral.
Seval, that was his name. He was one of the taken, i was suprised when the girl convinced Jax not to give up. Hope still lived on in me, i would know if he had died, i was determined to find him. I was torn inside from the seperation. His scent was everywhere and sometimes it was just so overwhelming and i normally found myself basking in this moments. I couldn't help myself.
I turned away from the picture and closed my eyes tight, willing the pain to go that only grew with each day we were apart. I let myself wonder into a deep state of mind knowing i would fall asleep soon, and so would my wolf.


(Kizzie's p.o.v)

I was refreshed calm now. I was no longer cold inside and my sense finally came around. There was a knock on my door just as i had exited the bathroom. When i didn't reply quick enough the door opened and Warren let himself in.
"Ah, you're awake, good. You slept a long time, miss, I know the sun is fading but we must leave very soon. There is food packed ready for you to eat on the way and a flask of sweet wine. I was told you must wear the dress so i suggest you put it on now. I'll have Mei come and do you hair for you in a second"
"I'm guessing you already know about the visit i had" If he didn't i don't think he would be acting in this way.
"Of course, darling there aren't many things that i don't know" He winked before leaving.
I laughed seeing a small part of this other side to him, but it also made me blush but i wasn't about to admit that to anyone but myself. My cats were still doozing but i would wake them once i was dressed. I fumbled around the drawers then opened the closet finding one dress that was stunning. I went into the bathroom and pulled it over my head. I had to take off my bra because of the tightness around my chest. I had a feeling i wouldn't be ever using a bra again, which i felt a little uncomfortable with.
The dress
