Samantha only had a few hours of sleep. Her head was filled with so much thoughts that she wasn"t able to sleep properly."I"m leaving mom!" she shouted before she dragged her "zombie" feeling body outside their house.
"Good morning,"
Samantha lifted her to look at the person and instantly gasped in shock, "Caleb?"
"Yup, you"re one and only," he said then bowed at her.
Is this a deja vu?
"What are you doing here?" she asked him.
"Fetching you. I"ve decided to fetch you everyday going to school as part of courting you," he said then smiled at her. He opened the door for her, "Shall we?"
Then at the right moment, another car pulled over in front of their house, "Good morning pretty," the man greeted.
"Ezekiel?" Samantha"s eyes widened. What the h.e.l.l is this man also doing here?
"You"re one and only," he said then bowed,
What is with these two? Doing similar things?
"Don"t tell me you"re also fetching me?" Samantha said while pinching the s.p.a.ce between her brows.
"Bingo," she heard Ezekiel say.
"I came here first, you can go now. Let"s go Samantha?" Caleb said then opened his car door widely.
"It doesn"t matter who came first, it"s up to Samantha"s decision. She"ll go with me right?" Ezekiel turned and faced Samantha with a smile.
"First come, first serve. Shoo," Caleb said then held Samantha"s wrist, but Ezekiel got a hold of her other wrist.
"I said it"s her decision," Ezekiel said, glaring at Caleb.
"Can you both stop! It"s early in the morning and you guys are already fighting! I"m not riding with anyone. Both of you leave!" Samantha shouted at the two men.
"But Samantha I waited here for you, I woke up really early," Caleb said.
"You"ll get tired from walking, it"s less ha.s.sle if you ride with me," Ezekiel also said.
Samantha turned to Caleb and said, "It"s not my problem if you woke up early, I didn"t ask for this," then she turned to face Ezekiel, "If you"re too worried about me walking and getting tired then fine!" she said then turned around.
"See I told you she"ll ride with me," Ezekiel smiled victoriously at Caleb.
Caleb was really annoyed right now, he was about to punch Ezekiel already, but they suddenly heard a car speed out of Samantha"s house.
"Hah! Ride with you guys? I"m riding with myself," Samantha said while driving.
Samantha only had a student"s licence that"s why she walked to school everyday. Her mom taught her to drive when she was 14 and bought her a car to use when she gets her professional licence. But now she had no other choice but to drive herself now, or else she"ll have to suffer from Caleb and Ezekiel every morning.
Upon arriving at school, Samantha locked her car and went straight to the library. She wanted to take a nap. It"s still early, she still have at least 40 minutes before the first cla.s.s started.
When she entered the library, she immediately looked for a good spot to take a nap.
"I knew you"d be here,"
"Ugh! Leave me alone Caleb," she said in a low tone voice. She didn"t want to get kicked out of the library.
"Why? Haven"t slept well? Thinking about me," she heard Caleb say.
Samantha raised her head to look at him, "Leave or I"ll leave," she glared at him.
"Okay chill! Just came here to give you this," Caleb brought out a bottle of coffee, "Drink this when you wake up so won"t feel sleepy at cla.s.s," he said then placed the bottle on the table and left the library.
"Did you give it to her? What did she say?" Jake asked as soon as Caleb stepped out of the library.
"Nothing, I didn"t disturb her anymore, she looked tired," he answered them while scratching the back of his neck.
"But we have to see her drink the coffee!" Raviel suddenly said.
Caleb raised his brows, "What do you mean? Did you put something on her drink?" he asked Raviel seriously. His gaze darkening.
"Chill Caleb, it"s nothing harmful I promise!" Raviel said and raised his right hand as a sign of promise.
"What did you put in her drink then?"
"It"s a potion I got from a white witch before, but don"t worry it"s safe for human consumption," this time it was Ravelo who spoke.
"What does the potion do?"
"It identifies a if a person is a hunter or a supernatural being," Ravelo explained, "If the person who ingested it is human, there will be no effect at all, if it"s a hunter, the person will turn drunk, and if it"s a supernatural being like wolves, vampires or witch, they will sneeze all day," he explained further.
"A potion like that exists?" Jake raised his brows.
"Yeah, the white witches invented it to protect themselves from hunters. They serve the potion to every visitor they have in their house to determine what kind of person they are,"
"Wow that"s brilliant," Klay complemented.
"Yesterday, when Caleb told us about the vervain necklace Samantha was wearing, I couldn"t get it off my mind and so I thought of this when we got home. If she had such a necklace, then it means she"s probably one of the two, either a hunter or a supernatural being," Raviel hypothesized.
"What do you mean Ravi?" Jake raised his brows.
"First, she could be a hunter. Vervain is a plant cultured only by hunters. They use it to kill vampires. If she possesses such item, then maybe she"s a hunter. Next, she could also be supernatural being, i"m guessing either a werewolf or a witch, she can"t be a vampire since she"s wearing a vervain necklace. Families of werewolves and witches also wore vervain filled accessories back in the day to protect themselves from compulsion. But this is all my hypothesis, of course we still need to monitor Samantha if the potion will have an effect on her," Raviel explained his thoughts.
"Wow, who would"ve though that you"re this brilliant?" Jake praised Raviel because he, himself, didn"t even thought of this.
"But how do we know if she"s either a witch or a werewolf?" Klay asked.
"Then we"ll have to use another potion on her,"
Caleb suddenly fell into a deep thought.
What if she turns out to be a hunter? He"ll have to distance himself from her if that was the case.
Hunters are humans partly supernatural. They were people who were cursed by the ancient witches to kill vampires and werewolves as they were a threat to their race. But as time went by, the hunters also killed witches and became the biggest threat to the supernatural world. The line of hunters then, continued from generation to generation. A person turns into a full hunter when they turn the age of 18.
If she was a hunter, he"ll have to kill her or she"ll kill him. But if that"s the case, does he have the heart to hurt her? The woman he loved?
