The witch twins mates (Edited Jun. 27. 2024)

Coming to some hole in the ground they jump down, I look around spotting a few places
where stone peaks out.

"I think this is a forgotten city" I mumble before jumping down and following the group as they walk and fuss over Gianna.

Looking around I see it's more of a cave with drawings on it coming to a stop I look at the
women seeing fur sat on the ground, they all sit on one pulling Gianna down on their laps while one starts messing with Gianna's hair braiding it.

"Zafrina" the tallest says pressing a hand to her chest "Kachiri" she says pressing her hand to the one on her left side "Senna" she says repeating the actions on the one on her right side that braids Gianna's hair.

Nodding I introduce everyone "What is this place?" I ask motioning around the cave.

"Home"

"You've always lived here?" I ask.

I frown looking around and see I'm outside I watch as Zafrina walks with Kachiri and Senna as humans holding hand-woven baskets gathering berries and speaking in a language I don't
know, Kachiri and Senna wave heading back to the cave I guess but Zafrina stays behind looking out into the trees before she's yanked up by a vampire running past he feeds from her and drops her body before running off.

Seeing a shift before Zafrina jumps up with red eyes looking around she takes off coming to an area, I see people wandering around with caves around them she moves to go after them but freezes seeing Kachiri and Senna crying, she turns then runs the other way.

Seeing a shift again she comes back to the village catching Kachiri alone and talks to her before she picks her up and runs away before biting her.

Another shift and I'm watching them back at the village leading Senna away before biting her.

I frown seeing it shift again and see all three of them return to the village in ruins like everyone either died or left, they move threw gathering anything left behind before setting up in a cave.

Shaking my head I look at them "Got it, you all lived here as humans".

"First woman" she says nodding.

Four days later

Standing on a tree with Zafrina she points out into the distance, looking out I see how large the area is "Zafrina do you know anything about the Volturi?"

"Little"

"I think someone is controlling them there is something wrong with them" I whisper "Could
you show me what you know?"

She nods playing her memories of their rise to power and the few times they met, I see Athenodora in their cave talking and laughing then promising to come back to visit soon before leaving.

Coming out of it I look at Zafrina "I don't think they can leave the castle someone is forcing her to stay".

Zafrina frowns looking at me "She is friend".

I nod having gotten used to the strange speech patterns and more feral actions "If I find a way would you help?"

She looks around the area unsurely before nodding "Group attack Volturi" she says frowning.

"The Cullens" I answer.

She nods looking at me "Help friends".

I smile nodding before she presses her hand to my chest "Friend" she grunts.

Turning I press mine to hers "Friend" I say nodding.

Hearing Jane call my name I smile at Zafrina before jumping down and running to her seeing
her eyes look clearer and more focused.

"Yes" I say smiling.

"We need to return to the Volturi"

"Why?"

"Something is off I don't know what but someone is using my masters" she growls.

"I know I told you this, that's what the trip is about trying to find out everything we can and gather help to stop them" I say slowly.

Jane looks unsure "Jane, I promise we will figure this out and help them but we can't go back yet, they affected you and Alec I still think it's Corin and Felix but it could be someone else, Athenodora supports this she helped me gather the information I needed and then forced us out she's trusting us to help".

Jane nods "We need to plan and figure this out soon I do not like someone controlling me I'm not a fucking Marionette".

I smile reaching out and touching her face "Wow that sounded like my real mate, not the puppet
you've been".
