The last week has been crazy, Freya has non-stop been trying to teach me how to perform magic but I just haven't got the hang of it yet. Klaus walks in once a day and checks up on me and then shakes his head disappointment when I tell him my magic isn't working yet.

I still do not know who they are, or what they are but they are a weird family, I just need to find out what they are hiding if I am going to stay here.

"Have you had enough of trying to teach me magic yet?" I ask Freya

"Not quite yet but it is becoming quite frustrating, normally by now you would be able to do a simple locater spell or movement of an object but your walls are so hard to break down to let the magic take over your body. It's weird it's never been so difficult to teach someone magic." She says

"Maybe I am not a witch after all, you could all be assuming because I have the same last name as a witch." I say

"No you defiantly are, I can feel it, your power is so strong that when I touch your hand it sends a shock through my body. Trust me you are a witch and a very strong one at that, we just need to find a way to release it all. You are not like normal witches Tilly so we might need to try something different." She says whilst lighting candles.

"Well what can I do then?" I Ask

"I think the problem is that you don't believe, you need to experience it for yourself, we need to do something to put your body into shock mode so that the magic overtakes and responses for you. But you're not going to like it." She says

"Go on. I am listening" I say nodding my head

"Ok, well as I am sure you are well aware that my family is not the normal day to day family. We all have secrets and we are all very powerful. I am going to run some tests with you, you are not going to know what these are or when they are. They will come as a shock and you may be very scared but don't worry you will be fine, hopefully this might trigger your magic and you may react differently then what your used to." She says slowly so I understand

"tests as in like needles and medical stuff?" I ask

"No, nothing like that. We need you to be scared, we need to make your emotions run wild, so you are going to experience some pretty petrifying stuff that you have never seen before." Freya explains

"Ok, yeah sure just as long as I do not die." I say with a laugh but deep down I am petrified.

"If the prophecy is correct and your magic does come to you, no one can kill you." She says

"So am I going to turn in to some sort of monster assassin." I say

"Maybe, depends what you choose to be." She says before walking towards the door.

"Oh and Tilly." She says

"Yeah?"

"Be prepared the tests will start soon." She says before leaving the room and locking the door behind her.

I do not know what she is going to do to me but I am beyond scared.

A few hours later I am getting ready for bed, Freya hasn't returned and the door is still locked. I slide into the king size bed and the silk sheets feel cold on my bare feet but it's so comfy and warm.

I drift off to sleep.

I wake up in the middle of the night from weird noises coming from the room, I have a weird feeling and dare not look anywhere but up at the ceiling. This house is so creepy.

I hear voices.

So quite but I can make out what they are saying.

"Get up tilly."

"Look at the end of your bed tilly."

"Don't be scared."

"Come to the bottom of the bed tilly."

"We will protect you."

I am freaking out trying to figure out where the voices are coming from, I think there just in my head but I sit up and swing my legs over the bed anyway.

I clamp my eyes shut not wanting to see anything in the darkness, I move my hand across the wall to find the light switch.

As soon as the lights on the voices stop.

I open my eyes and quickly scan the room.

Nothing.

I walk to the en-suite bathroom to chuck some water on my face to wake me up a little.

I hear shuffling outside the bathroom door and instantly become frozen

The voices start again.

"Walk outside."

"Get out of the bathroom."

"No one is going to hurt you"

"There is a surprise waiting for you."

I smack my hand against my head to try and stop the voices.

Am I going crazy? Am I being possessed.

I decide to ignore the voices and walk outside the bathroom.

I stop dead in my tracks.

At the bottom of the bed there is a shiny brown coffin that was not there before.
