Moon Phases (Agatha Harkness X Fem!Reader)

Chapter XX.

You all had sat around the warm fire, sharing some of Jen's handmade on-the-spot perfume paste that took away the stench of dead leaves, sweat, and mud that existed on you.

Slowly, the mood started to change, and with Teen back to his live self and his new scar, everyone took turns showing off their scars, briefly mentioning the cool story behind them.

That was until Agatha joined. She sat in the empty space between you and Rio, not too close to any of you, as if she was feeling divided.

And then Rio had to talk about her scar, changing the mood as subtle messages were clearly behind her story, upsetting both you and Agatha.

You watched Agatha be the first one to leave the circle right after Rio confessed her "scar." You barely lifted your head to watch her go or cared when Rio went after her.

By now, you had realised who this mysterious green witch was and what she was to Agatha.

A part of you, deep down, was not surprised. You often spent a lot of time away from one another, and she was not forced to remain focused on you alone; the fact that you did it for her was merely out of your loyalty to her.

Yet somehow, it still bothered you. Seeing those looks she would often give you, now directed at her. Rio would try to invade her personal space and make her react, testing your patience and the fact that you did not wish to interfere.

Perhaps you should, but who were you to lay such a claim? When you had left Agatha on her own so many times? And who said Agatha wished you to claim her?

Those questions and thoughts had darkened your mood, and it was evident on your face, something the other witches noticed.

They didn't know exactly your relationship with Agatha, and mixed signals confused them, but they had their suspicions.

Thankfully for you, there was one kind-hearted soul in the group who did not like to see you down.

"I still don't think I thanked you enough...uhm... " Teen started, smiling but feeling slightly embarrassed since he had never heard your name.

Truthfully, you had not told anyone your name, and Agatha had only been calling you by your nickname, something no witch had dared to call you.

You smiled faintly and turned your attention to him. "Y/N," you introduced yourself, earning an even bigger smile from him.

"Well then, thank you," he continued. "I owe you,"

"You owe me nothing. I am glad you are okay. " You offered a small, weak smile.

"Though I have to ask... how did you do it?" He asked, grabbing his little book. "What kind of spell was that?"

To your help, somehow, came the oldest of the witches, Lilia. "This was no spell, kid," she explained, earning his attention. "This is the tricks and spells of a Moon Witch."

Teen was suddenly intrigued. "Moon witch? I don't think I have read much about you, " he confessed.

You offered a sad smile. "I am afraid my kind is not that well known or welcomed. Not many witches are chosen for it, either."

"It is the type of witch dedicated to the moon and its phases. The very same entity witches pray over spells, blessed them with power, " Lilia explained once again.

Teen was very interested. "So, you do what... Moon magic?"

"If only," Jen interrupted him. "Moon magic is the purest form of magic. It is literally the essence of blessing, purification, and protection of the highest form. Moon Witches are the OG White Witches"
