Victoria's Pov
Cause I am unable to turn off my curiousity , I go to Grand Mylene Mall and meet this mystery person.
" I thought you wouldn't come " Asher said.
" How did you get my number ? " I asked.
" None of your business. But, you better follow me now "
" Where are you taking me ? "
He keep his mouth shut until we get out of the mall.
" Get in the car "
" No unless you tell me where are we going "
" Gosh, you're so difficult. We're heading to my secret place "
" Why should I go ? "
" Because someone told me to bring you there . Does that explain the answer ? "
" Yes . But, I am still keeping an eye on you "
" I don't mean no harm "
" Fine, I'll get in "
We're awkwardly quiet during the drive.
" Here we are "
" What are we waiting for ? Let's go out. Ugh, why can't this door open ? " I bang on the door hardly hoping that it would open.
" Promise me one thing, don't tell anyone about this place "
" What's with the intense emotion ? Fine, I'll not tell anyone. Will you let me out now ? "
A sound comes out of the car and I can open the car door. He leads me to a lake.
" What's in this lake ? "
" You'll see " he starts walking to the lake and I follow him.
When almost all of his feet are soaked in the lake's water, he begin to chant a spell. Then, a door appear open in front of us.
When he step his foot on the other side of the door, I feel hesitated.
" Are you coming or not ? " He turn his direction to me.
" I guess I have no choice but to follow you "
I am in awe when I see my surroundings. There are lanterns everywhere and it feels warm here. But, the odd thing is there are no women.
" This is the wizard's hiding from witches "
" You said that there is someone who wants to meet me "
" Ah, yes . Let me take you to her "
After a few steps that feel like forever, there are two people in front of me. One has long red hair and the other one has short blonde hair. I am unsure which one asked for my presence.
" Victoria ? " The one with red hair turn to face me.
" Nice to meet you, Julie Lemongrass " she laughed at me.
" That's my human name . My real name is Astoria Xander "
" Why didn't I realize that it was you ? Anyway, it's been a long time. How are you doing, Astoria ? "
" Actually, I'm doing great . How are you, Vi ? "
" Amazing . Why do you use a human name ? "
" I need to survive . Plus, humans don't know about our existence "
" There's a representative for our kind now "
" For real ? "
" Yeah, I am representing our kind. Is that your boyfriend besides you ? "
" Meet my boyfriend, Rick Ambrose. Rick meet Victoria, my childhood best friend "
" Nice to meet you, Victoria " the blonde man greeted me.
" Hello there, Rick . How do you two meet up ? "
" She saved me on my first movie premiere "
" He was asking for taxi and I happened to be nearby. He knocked on my window begging me to let him in and I let him go inside the car "
" After that, I asked her out for a date and she said yes " they stare at each other with love.
Oh, how I longed to be looked like that.
Asher clears out his throat surprising us " Should we discuss about what brought us here in the first place ? "
" Right, we need to figure out who's the snitch " Astoria said.
" I'm guessing it's one of the wizards here " Rick butt in.
" No, it can't be a wizard. If it was a wizard, the witches would kill him on the spot " I voiced out my thought.
" Hate to admit it. But, I agree with her " Asher said.
" Then, there's a spy here "
" Or a witch pretend to be a wizard so she can report it to the other witches "
" That actually makes sense "
" How are we gonna detect this witch ? "
Suddenly, everyone is silent.
" We can check the wizards one by one "
" That's a waste of time. There's too many wizards and the witch has a chance to escape "
" Then, we'll block the exit "
" Wait, wait, wait how can a witch get here if we need to chant a spell to reveal the door to this place ? "
" Maybe, she spied on one of you when you want to get in "
" That's impossible. Most wizards go here at night "
" Yet, you took me here in the evening "
" Damn it, I should've been more careful "
" Can I talk with you, Astoria ? "
" Sure, Victoria "
" Alone without these men "
" Let's go outside " she drag me by my arm.
" Why should we help them ? This is not our fight "
" I know that this is not our fight. But, I want to help my boyfriend. Since you're a representative, you can help them . Voice out their mind to the witch's representative "
" I am so not doing that . Why should I interfere ? "
" Fine , if you don't want to do that, then can you figure out why the witches dislike wizards so much "
" I don't know. The next meeting is still three weeks from now "
" Do you have anything to do during those three weeks ? "
" Probably just work stuff "
" That means you can help them with me . Come on, it's been a long time since we spend time together "
" Fine, I'll only do it for you " we walk back to the men.
" Are you ladies done with your chit chat ? " Asher's tone laced with boredom.
" I convinced her to stay and help " Astoria said with a beaming smile.
Suddenly, the ceiling starts to crack
" Um, what's going on ? "
