ESTHER'S FLOWER

Chapter 27

Dahlia couldn't help the sickening grin on her face as what she had been searching for centuries was finally in her grasp. She wanted to cut the golden locks off the girl's head but remembered that if the hair were cut, the magic of the golden flower would disappear.

A few minutes after the young Bennett witch returned to the place after carrying the blonde to the little cottage, Dahlia explained to the girl that from the moment the drop of sunlight fell to the earth and sprouted into a flower magic appeared. 

"Earth had no magic only nature but then a bright light fell from the sky and unto the soils of the Earth. Then a miracle happened, as a flower bloomed where the bright light landed and from this nature became powerful. The trees' colors shone brightly as they all looked so healthy stretching towards the golden rays of the sun. The animals were blessed and began to show appreciation for nature as they multiplied and protected their habitat, overall everything was well.

However as time went by, humans became greedy and started to destroy nature, rapidly cutting down the same trees that brought them a magnitude amount of food and shelter. Nature was angry and decided to revolt so the trees held their fruits and no ground grew the crops of the seeds that were planted. The earth was cast in famine except in one place. This was the area where the golden flower resided. 

However, the only humans who didn't fall into chaos like the rest of the world were a group of five orphaned siblings who lived nearby. Though they were not related by blood, they found solace in each other. They worshiped the flower and thanked it for its bountiful blessings that it had brought them and from this the flower blessed them with powers to use and they used it to protect it. These siblings' surnames were Bennett, Hagen, Gemini, Algier, and Petrova. The girls were Bennett, Hagen, and Petrova while the other two were males. 

Gemini and Bennett never considered each other siblings as they were courting each other. They thought no one knew and so they would go on secret escapades where they would kiss and perform other illicit acts which didn't go unnoticed by Hagen who also liked Gemini. Hagen got angry when she discovered this.

She always went to the flower to vent her anger and so the once golden glow of innocence that surrounded her turned dark. The flower sensed this every time she appeared in front of it. 

Hagen started to distance herself from the others and they began to worry when they noticed this but Hagen only ignored them. She formulated a plan to separate Bennett and Gemini and so one evening while the others went to pray at the golden flower, Hagen was going to force herself on Gemini but when she noticed the innocent-looking Petrova passing by she changed her plan. She knocked the girl out and tied her up on the bed before gagging and blindfolding her. 

After this, she went to the area where everyone was and called Gemini to help her find Petrova on the pretense that the girl was missing. Trusting the girl he called sister, Gemini followed Hagen to look for their youngest sibling only to be drugged by Gemini. He was brought to the room where Petrova who was now awake was trying to beg for help. The drugged Gemini called out to Petrova thinking she was Bennett and succumbed to the lust that was brought upon himself by the drug.

For two days Petrova suffered under Gemini who thrusted into her body repeatedly leaving his marks all over her pale white skin. 

"Gemini stop," she cried out as the gag was removed from her mouth.

Sadly her her cries weren't heard by the drugged male and she could only cry and sob for help as he continued to have his way with her. Algier who was searching for Petrova along with the others who notified that Petrova was missing and Gemini couldn't be found after he went to search for their sister, heard the cries.
