In Control (SLOW UPDATES)

Side Ch: Demon

Long Chapter

I thought that with all the sad and stressful chapters that have come out and are going to continue that it would be nice to have a little fun. So I made a fun chapter between Amilia and Azrael in an Alternate universe.

Enjoy :)

Amilia pov:

Over that many years that I've been alive I've never believed in anything supernatural. Some of my friends talk about chakras and witchcraft but I didn't see the appeal. I think it's all fake.

I've played with ouija boards, learned about crystals, I even bought a fucking spell book and none of them did anything. So in the end it was all a big waste of my time, but no, Emily had to drag me to one of her weird witch stores.

"Lia, it'll be fun! Just 5 minutes." She told me, dragging me into the shady shop with even shadier things inside.

"I just want to go shopping. Regular shopping!" I complained, letting her drag me so we could get it over with quicker.

"Just indulge me." She whined, smiling when we got inside. I rolled my eyes and crossed my arms, begrudgingly walking around.

Emily happily went around mingling with everyone and everything. I looked at the weird things littering the shelves. Voodoo dolls, bones, crystals, books, feathers, incense, the whole nine yards. None of it interested me.

"You don't seem impressed." A voice said behind me. Turning around I found an older black lady with a twinkle in her eyes.

"Why would I be? It's all fake anyway." I shrugged my shoulders, picking up a vial of some herbs.

"Most think that way till you see it first hand. I think you have some talent for this." She chuckled and placed a hand on my shoulder. Confused, I looked at her hand then at her, lifting an eyebrow.

"Uh huh? Is this just some sales pitch to get me to buy your stuff? Cause if it is, it isn't gonna work." I scoffed at her, moving to look for other things to stare at while I waited.

"Trust me child, you'll see soon enough." She flashed me a smile, her eyes showing a distinct twinkle in them.

"I got what I needed. Find anything?" Emily pops up beside me, startling me. Calming myself I roll my eyes and  motioned to the random lady but she was gone.

"Huh?" I was confused, it was a small shop, she couldn't have gotten far. Letting it go I get dragged by Emily, exiting the building with her.

We spend the rest of the day shopping, filling our shopping bags with items. We spent hours walking around the city and splurging our money. When it got late we went our separate ways, myself going home to decompress.

Setting my bags and satchel down I go to my kitchen to grab myself a bottle of wine. Pouring a hefty glass I grab all my bags and sort through them, seeing where each clothing item would be placed.

Seeing a dress I didn't like I went to find a receipt in my satchel and found something else. There was a black book with the engraving of a satanic symbol on it. My mind blanks on when I bought this thing, I didn't buy anything from that weird shop?

My mind rushed back to that lady in the shop, she must have slipped it in my satchel when I wasn't looking. Sighing and shrugging my shoulders I see no point in fretting about it. It's just another dumb book to my collection of witch items Emily keeps buying me.
