Isabella's POV

I could hear faint whispers coming from around me once again. Pretending to sleep seemed to be the only thing that I was doing lately, so I could hear what they were saying. It was a tiring job you know, laying still.

"She's an elemental and you all saw how powerful she already is. She will be unstoppable if she is well trained. She's not able to handle her powers that are being triggered and unlocked one by one. She's unstable right now." a powerful voice said which sounded very familiar, but I couldn't place it, what with the haze of dizziness that still lingered.

Who are they talking about? Are they talking about me? But I'm so not powerful. I wouldn't hurt a fly without a reason. I just can do some weird things, that's all.

"Theodora, Terra (the earth) has blessed her with its powers and the climate change would be....." the other woman trailed off.

Well that explains the sudden lightning strikes, but again who are they talking about?

"The climate changes according to what she is feeling, gathering from what we've seen today. She is more powerful than we thought she would be. I just need to check if she has the other three elements as well, so I know what to expect." Theodora sighed.

"Word will spread that she is alive and if they know about who she is and what she possesses, they will hunt her down and kill her, before she even knows how to use her powers in her defense." the other woman said.

Oh my God!! whoever it is, I need to find that person and tell them about this. But if they are this powerful as she says, won't they be able to protect themselves?

By the way, doesn't this other woman have a name too?

"We can't risk others knowing about her right now, which is why I need you to see to it that this stays within our Coven only. I trust our people with this information. Besides, if they even think about back stabbing us, they are bound with an oath. The second they try to betray us, they will die." Just listening to the tone of her voice, I knew she meant business.

Damn, why is this woman so serious all the time, well apart from the fact that this actually is a time to be serious. Okay I'm going off track. Focus Bella, focus!

I thought of making my presence known, I had enough of hearing all this. I slowly opened my eyes and saw that it was dark outside, my room was dimly lit. Thank God that it wasn't bright in here, my eyes would have suffered.

"Oh, she's awake. Give her some water and then get the poor girl some warm soup, will you Mary." Theodora said, looking down at me.

"It's you." I whispered. It was the same woman from my dreams, the woman I wanted to stay far, far away from. She could've saved that baby's mother.

"Yes, my dear. I know you're angry and I also know you have questions. Please let me explain, I will tell you everything." She said looking at me with sincerity.

"Why do you think I would believe anything coming from you? You could've saved that woman yet you didn't, so why do you think I will listen to you, of all people?" I glared at her.

"Won't you listen to her if I asked you to Bella?" a voice said, that sounded like the person who I didn't think would say this.

"Mom?"
