Mates But Enemies

Chapter 42: The One

I watched her dumbfounded and couldn't say anything in fact I didn't know what to ask and where to

start from asking. She stared at me for a while with sorrow in her eyes so I couldn't bring myself to

shout at her or be angry with her. What could she have done when she was in love? The things people

do all in the name of love is unimaginable.

But she had said I wasn't her child so who was I and my father never mentioned having another wife

before her. So I couldn't understand what she meant by that. So I asked,

“If I am not your child then who am I ?”

She wiped a tear on her cheek and confessed,

“I took you from the witch doctor a few years after being unable to give your father a child. I felt

desperate, so I mean you could not be a genasi at all or you are a genasi who wasn't born out of

mating. ”

I looked at her astonished and I wasn't alone, my father walked towards her and raised his hands, we

looked on at him but he put it down and walked out of the room down spirited.

She looked at me and apologized,

“I am sorry but you will have to follow me to the witch doctor if you want to know your background

because as much as I asked, she wouldn't tell me. ”

I walked away from her and told her I didn't want to know who I was and asked her why her time was

getting over when she could always go back to take more concoction. And she shook her head and

said,

“It's over because the one has been born and I promised I would when he was born. But I hesitated

and wanted to stay with you all a little longer. So the day in turned into a wolf, I knew my time was

overdue so I needed to go back to her.

I had visited her in the last few days and had never met her and even this time I went and she was

nowhere to be found. And the concoction is finished. ”

I looked at her with my mouth gaped, from what she had said, my son was the one who they had

prophesied about. So I walked out of the room with my head in different places, everything was

happening so fast I didn't know what to do anymore. I got out and met Mia on her way to my mother's

room but I wasn't in the mood to say anything, she saw me and greeted me but I didn't mind her. She

looked at my retrieving back and whispered,

Everyone is so weird as for me, I am going to break that rule and go to the sea with my friends today.

After all my family is so busy.

I looked back at her and called to her but she also didn't mind me so I created a barrier in front of her

and she bumped into it, I didn't ask my mother if she had really given birth to her but if she had then

she wasn't human either. So if she was to go to the beach, I wouldn't know what would happen there.

She walked back a little and saw that there wasn't anything in front of her so she walked towards that

direction again but still bumped. She then heard my footsteps behind her and looked back at me

marveled and asked,

“Did you do that? What did you put in front of me? ”

I told her it was a barrier but instead of being afraid, she jumped in the air joyously and exclaimed,

“Oh I knew it, this is so cool sis, you are a super woman. Can I do that too? I would love that, imagine

fighting those bad guys? Since when could you do that? oh oh stop I think it's since you were born. You

were always so cool about everything, in fact I envied you. But look you are no nor...”

I kept my hand on her mouth because she was blabbering too much and laughed.

I looked at her and told her that we were alright. And that she should not go to where she was going

unless she was ready to face the consequences. But she said she wasn't afraid of anything that could

happen.

But I didn't allow her to go and told her to come with me, we went to Leo's room to find him nowhere

and was about to go out to find him but we opened the door to go out and a ball of wind entered the

room. They looked back and saw the wind turn into Leo, both of them stuttered backwards in surprise.

He had his back to them then he turned to look at them, his eyes had different colours in them and it

turned from green to blue and from blue to finally his gray eyes. He looked at us with a smile on his

face and then said,

“Aunty guess what? Your mate is coming for you. ”

We both looked at each other and whispered together,

Mate?
