Mutual Attraction

Gilbert walked into Anna Garrett's house boldly like he just won an election, with a squeezed face and chin up.  He spotted Anna where she was sitting with her legs crossed and her hands folds on her laps. He walked towards her and stood in front of her.

Anna lifted her head in anger, she looked displeased, the last person she wanted to see at the moment was Gorge Gilbert.  "What can I do for you Gorge? This is so not a good time!" Her voice hashed, she looked ornery.

"You have fail me Anna." That was not Gilbert's voice. Anna continent changed from anger to fear, as she looked into Gilbert's eyes. His eyes had changed color to red.

Moloch has possessed Gilbert's body.

Anna rose up to her feet in heartbeat with fear. "My lord Moloch!" She said, fluttering her lashes down as she bent down her head.  "I am sorry I failed you. I will bring you your right, just give me few —" Many questions fluent into her mind, but none she could ask or give answer to at the moment. — Gilbert was mortal, how could Moloch posses him?  Has he been preparing him? How?

Moloch groaned, "How will you do that, while you sitting down with your hands folds?" He said tilting his head in anger.

"I have taken —"

"Stop!" His authoritative voice made Anna pause her lips and bring down her eyes. "Look at me Anna!" He commanded and she lifted her head terrified. "I will forgive you," Anna looked surprised. "Only if you bring me the 'Ring of the falling queens."

"Ring of the falling queens?" She blinked in confusion. "My lord, I know not of the ring you speak of," she replied trembling.

"Your foolishness is mesmerizing." Anna lowered her gaze. "The stranger you are to deliver to me would have killed you on the sport with that ring in her finger. Get me the ring and kill her." He commanded.

"My lord, if this witch is as powerful as you say. How can I kill her and take the ring?" She bent her head again, clenched her fist together in fear. Asking many questions was like defying Moloch, but Anna was no fool. If Moloch comes to her, and risk exposing himself like this, the witch most be powerful. She also knew Moloch was not a forgiving god.

"Oooohhhhhhhhhh!!!" Moloch whirled in anger. "You dare to defy me?"

"No, my lord." Shaking her head as she replied.

"I will install all that you need to you, and you will gather the rest of your coven. You must not fail me this time Anna."

"I won't fail you." She said without raising her head up in assurance.

"Gather the rest of your coven and come to the sacrifice meet by dawn."

"Yes, my lord." Tilting her head down.

He turned back and walked out.

After I left Joel, I went straight to Michael's haunt, I knew he would be angry, but I had no choice, I needed to send him off before Joel got to me.

Why I cared, to the point of wanting to explain myself — I did not know. Why I was on my way to see Michael — I could not understand. All I knew was that I needed to explain myself. It like I don't have a choice, I have to go to him.

I wanted to turn to another direction and just be on my way, but I couldn't, just like I spelled Michael's feet ... I felt compelled and something was drawing me to him, to the point that, I could not explain how I found my way and standing in front of his haunt.

"What am I doing here? I should be miles away from here right now. This way even Michael will be safe," I said it but I couldn't bring myself to walk away.
