Chapter 21:

(Ellie's POV)

"Do I look okay?" I asked a little nervous as I looked at myself in the mirror. It was my wedding day and I was in my room with Laura and Anna getting ready. 

"You look beautiful" Laura commented sorting the train out.

"Are you wearing a veil?" Anna asked standing. 

"No, I tried it on a couple of days ago and it was really annoying."I explained turning around to face them. 

"Okay" she commented standing up looking at me checking for any mistakes. On a loop in my head, I kept on reviewing how quick the wedding had come. And I wish I had my parents with me, especially my mother. She would have known exactly what to say to make my day perfect. 

"You alright? You're not getting cold feet?" Laura asked checking that I was okay. I was fine with getting married to Jake, more than okay actually, I really liked Jake and at the beginning I was doing this for our factions but now it's more than that. This past week we have spent every waking moment together and he has been amazing. The only thing that was missing was our first kiss, something that would change today.

"I'm just a little nervous, it'll be fine" I commented before we heard a knock at the door. Laura went out of the room, closing the door behind her to see who it was but when she came back in too quickly, I became curious.

"Who was it?" I asked a little to quickly as she shut the door behind herself. She came back in the room with an envelope.

"I don't know, but they left this for you." She said handing me the envelope. I opened it and inside was the a small drawstring bag and a letter. 

"What's that?" Anna asked, I handed her the draw strong bag. She opened it as I fiddled with the letter. She looked analysed it along with Laura who recognized it straight away.

"It's a soul catcher. You put a past soul in the sphere and it releases the spirit onto the earth for I think a day." Laura spoke before throwing the class sphere on the floor making it break releasing smoke as I read the letter out loud.

"Dear Ellie, I know we're not on the best of terms at the moment but as it is your wedding day, a wedding gift is in order. This is my gift. Harry" I said as a body formed on the floor. When she stood, I was overjoyed and overwhelmed.

"Helen?" Laura asked. I hugged her tight and she responded. 

"Darling." She said. I didn't want to let her go, she's not been gone for long but I missed her so much.

"Guys can I just have a minute?" I asked Laura and Anna as I let my mum go. She looked like she had already dressed ready for the wedding which was weird but I ignored it.

"Yeah sure. Nice to see you back Mrs Dunson." Laura said before they left the room. 

"Let me look at you" She stated keeping me at an arms distance looking my up and down as I wiped away my tears to make sure my mascara was in check. She was smiling and tearing up, taking in this unforgettable moment.

"You look like you should in the stars you look that perfect" She said making me laugh. She took my hand and looked at my engagement ring.

"You are doing the right thing you know. Marrying Jake. Even if he is no Harry. Jake is good for you. And what you have done for the witches is so brave and i'm so proud of you for stepping up. " She said as if she was answering all my un-spoke questions. 

"I think i'm falling for him." I commented.

"I know. You can tell. And I think he feels the same. Call it a mother's intuition." She said making me smile. 

"And I do know you feel bad because you still have feelings for Harry." She said before I stepped in to correct her on that. She's been dead, she's behind on the recent events.

"I don't anymore" I interrupted.

"It's perfectly normal if you do. What you are doing for everyone, listening to everyone's opinions , its alright if you have some of your own feelings behind all that." She explained placing her hand on my cheek. 

"What do you know about dad's family line?" I asked out of the blue.

"What? The royal witch bloodline? All of it. Your father was pretty adamant on you following their heritage." she answered a little reluctant.

"So you know if I die they will come back from the dead?" I asked wondering what she did and didn't know.

"Yes and I need to make this as clear as possible. You must not whatever the circumstances let that happen. If you resurrect the witches from that line ...  just don't do it okay?" She told as if she was even scared and she was dead. Whoever was in that line, nobody wanted them out.

"Tell me. There's got to be a story to it." I asked as we sat down on the sofa.

"It's your wedding day, you've got things to do" She said trying to avoid it but she knew I wouldn't give this up so easily.

"This is more important." I stated taking her hands looking into her eyes.

"Okay. Well there was this witch: Ophelia Nye. A 6th century witch. She hated her family because she was the only one who was a dark magic witch bearing in mind she didn't want to be one of us in the first place, so instead of embracing her true self, she begun practicing that type of the craft which she knew was dangerous. Her dark magic created vampires that's how bad it is. Anyway, one day she fell in love with a vampire, Simon Harry's friend but when he disappeared, she went crazy. Her family, your ancestors, wanted her dead to keep the peace in the community but she cast a spell binding to all the royal bloodline witches together in the afterlife. She made it so if the last decedent were to die she would be able to come back from the dead in order to not only wipe out the witches, but all supernatural beings altogether. " She explained every detail shocking me. 

"Now I understand but why I can I only have child of pure blood or non with any vampire?" I asked.

"Because normally a vampire cannot procreate and even so, a vampire is a dead creature therefore the child would be born dead, meaning she would be able to be resurrected." She explained before there was a knock on the door. Laura's head popped around the door grinning.

"Sorry to interrupt but are you ready to get married?" she said making me stand suddenly getting nervous. I nodded smiling as my mum stood smiling to.
