Sometime during 1918

Talia wore a lavish gown which was made of duchesse satin, pearls, beads and golden threads. The embroidery and the bow on the back of her gown were magnificent.  As she stepped into the spring party, all eyes were set on her, including his.

Talia took a glass of champagne when he approached her.

“Dance with me?” he asked and offered his hand to her.

Talia eyed him from up to down, he was dressed somewhat like a soldier.”I don’t usually accept a stranger’s offer.” she said as she took a sip from her glass, ignoring his offer.

He took his hand back, a disappoint look was clear in his eyes.”Well, I’m not the usual stranger.” he grinned childishly.

Talia laughed and put her quarter filled glass in the table.”What’s your name?”

“Leon Winters….”

Sometime during 1919

“What’s up with you and Leon?” Selena asked. She eyed her twin sister suspiciously.

“Nothing.” Talia stated simply and poured the tea to the two glasses in front of her.

“Talia—“Selena began again, but Talia quickly cut her.”Selena, I’m dating him as our plan.” she said and hand a glass to her sister.”You can count on me.”

A wide and evil grin appeared on Selena’s face. She tapped Talia’s shoulder.”I know I can count on my sister.”

Sometime during 1920

Selena tied Leon into a Hawthorne tree; he wasn’t in his conscious state.”We can begin as the moon set higher.”

“I know.” Talia replied flatly, she was busy lighting the candles.

Selena look a bit offended with her sister’s answer.”I need you with me, Talia.

“I’m right here.” she said.”And I’m strong enough.”

“He is stronger than both of us.”

“That’s why we are here, right? He is vulnerable in full moon.”

“But you and him?” Selena walked toward her.

Talia scoffed.” Since when you care, Sel? Don’t waste the time by pretending you care on the last minute.

“Fool. I don’t care about him. All I care is about you.”

Leon groaned as he began to gain his consciousness back. He blinked few times until the figures of the young witches became clear in his eyes.”Talia?” he said in disbelief.

Back to present

Talia opened her eyes terrifically.  Her breath was panting. Her dreams were vivid, she couldn’t remember much, but seeing her and Leon in a different period time it didn’t seem like a dream. It was more like a reality.  It was more real than what Leon had told her in the morning.

“It was just a dream, Talia. It was just a dream.” She calmed herself.

No matter how loud, how many times she said those words; she knew it wasn’t just a dream. Something had happened between, something that might involve the three of them, Leon, Selena and herself.
