Eunomia

Chapter 33 "Miami needs Bry"

~Bryony~

"Bry!" Anais went running to hug me. "I didn't know you were coming so early." Genny joined our hug for a couple of seconds before trying to step away.

"Oh thanks God, infertile women..." I hug them bough with too much strength.

"What are you saying?" Aiden looked at us together with Rain and Sterling from the distance. We agreed we will meet in my apartment so I was enjoying these few seconds before starting to work.

"I couldn't come sooner because I had a crisis..." I explained letting Genny and Anais breath again. "My fourteen-year-old sister screwed her best friend and now she's not getting her period."

"Congratulations auntie!" Sterling joked but I didn't laugh. I didn't want to be near babies and less become aunt, I have already got to the idea that kids won't be something I would do and I was cool with it.

"Have you heard that Rain? Even Bryony's little sister isn't virgen anymore." Aiden hit Rain friendly on the arm.

"Ha, ha." Rain blushed while rubbing the place where Aiden just hit him.

I realized Rain looked at Anais and she giggled behind me.

"Okay, I'm not interested in Rain's sex life and you sure aren't about my sister's so let's go." I started to walk being followed by my friends, after all I came for business and not for pleasure.

Illusions, illusions... Lots of possibilities to make vampires run and never come back... I just needed to find one big enough for Devak to don't send more minions here ever again.

Broken windows where the last lights of the sunset sneaked, dirty cobwebs settled at the ceiling, graffiti and mirrors, that old fairground attraction still preserved the hundreds of mirrors that once gave rise to a blurred vision of reality. Today I would remember those abandoned mirrors their original task, blur the reality.

I have always like mirrors, they never lie, rough but true reality, mirrors are the most honest of friends... Ironic the ghost that gives me hunt locked in one is so brutally honest that it hurts.

I'm aware of how powerful I am -believe me this power is not a joke- the thing is that I never get to fully discover how much I'm capable of, so today I'm playing with mirrors. Scaring those vampires away gave me an idea I wanted to try... Jason always manipulative the reality of the reflection for showing so maybe I can...

The mirrors started to do as I wanted, they stopped reflecting what was in front of them for showing what I asked. First something simple, my house, one of the many memories I had for having seen it before entering. Then I tried with something harder... a memory, of mine, it wasn't much, just my mom with the six-year-old me in her lap reading a book... I had to smile when it appeared in that mirror as if it was happening right in front of it, as if my mother was there...

I had to cut all that performance because I started to feel it... the lost of control, him trying to take advantage of that for appearing and tormenting me like he has done so many times... All for the same reason.

"Wow... You are becoming a more powerful bitch day by day." Anais showed herself, she had stopped at what was the entrance to the attraction that now looked more like an abandoned building.

"It's hard." I confessed and Anais started to walk closer to me.

"He's giving you a rough time?" Anais asked unsure if it was fine to ask that question.
