Of Woes and Shadows (Wednesday x reader)

Chapter 41: Bloody Birthday Part 2

Long chapter! 

Y/N's Pov:

The picture of the fire and the burn marks on the lawn have given your brain 3 degree burns for the past 24 hours. For the past day since the situation you have been comparing the hand writing on the lawn with Thornhill's writing. Just like you assumed, it was similar. Just to confirm it you sent a photo copy back to court with many of your class assignments to have professional calligraphy Masters to check. With this case being eerily different yet similar to the other cases happening around the world, the Vampiric military was moving and processing information faster than ever.

"I got news for you," states Y/B/N as she shakes a thick folder.

Taking the file from her you quickly scan the paper that confirmed everything you had thought about the past few days. Taylor was indeed the Hyde. Images of him at home showed Atredi's talons on his neck. The back and rotting skin around the bright still raw scars proved it was indeed a demon who did it.

"Next stage is that we need to get a blood sample- nevermind." In your hands now was None other than a bloody vial dropped by Atredis who cawed proudly.

Guess everyone is on high alert, you think as you read the letter from one of your human devotees. Since you made the announcement that there was a crisis on the horizon involving normies, your normie followers have been scrambling to show their loyalty to you and the Court. Many even began offering their own and family lives to protect you. Something you kept telling them no to.

"kind of creepy that all this blood was collected from minor injuries. Did they just keep his blood and a vial in their pocket?" Y/B/N cringes and shivers as she looks away from the letter.

"Some of their kids have class with him. Looks like he cut himself yesterday in chemistry by goofing off with his friends," putting the paper down you glance at the other reports. "Looks like Thornhill isn't who she says she is either."

The report below the first one you were looking at detailed that the background check the court and allies ran on her confirmed that her bio was fake! Everything from social security to birth certificate was fake. Additionally stating they had caught the man who helped her make said documents. Guess I'll be torturing Someone tomorrow morning- nothing like screams of pain before breakfast!

The next steps were clear, you needed to figure out who Thornhill is. Second run a DNA test on Taylor with the monster's blood. Thirdly, get Wednesday away from both of them immediately which would be the hardest thing to do.

"Any updates on the cave situation?"

"I have some but who knows if you'll believe me." States a delicious sounding voice. You and your friend sigh before turning.

There stood Evelynn, once again wearing your circular sunglasses on top of her head. Before you could say anything she causally dropped the fact that Wednesday had fainted due to getting a vision at Crackstone's grave. Before you could jump into the shadows to retrieve her, the demoness pointed towards your bed. There as if she was sleeping beauty was the gothic girl. However, the way Evelynn had set her, she was seconds from smashing her face against the floor. She looked like a cartoon character ran over!

Blurring over to her, you tuck her in properly. "Thanks but-"

"There's an illusion of her on her bed. No one will know about your relationship, don't worry."

You nod, creasing her face gently. The way her eyebrows bent and her tightly closed her eyes were, it clearly wasn't a good vision again.

"Don't you have somewhere else to be?" Evelynn looks over at your best friend. Y/B/N gives her a confused face as her hand hovered over her hidden gun. In return, Evelynn gives her a face that told her to cut the bullshit.
