Meanwhile in New York, Manhattan....
Davina's pov
I'm just finishing off my seven hour shift at hotel Montez where I also happen to live since I can't afford to rent a place and because I'm not 18 I will most likely be put into foster care and Dove will probably be taken from me which I can't allow to happen so I'm stuck living at a five star hotel where I also work in order to live here and be able to feed and cloth my daughter.
My daughter is currently at the hotel cresh where parents can leave their children for a few hours when they want some adult time which for most it means get drunk, gamble or go fuck each other.
You of course have to pay for your child to attend the cresh but since I work here my daughter gets to go for free which I'm beyond grateful for as I really couldn't afford it otherwise as it costs $23 dollars per hour per child which I know doesn't seem that bad for some but considering I everyday Monday to Friday for seven hours that would cost me nearly $805 in total and it's just not something I can afford.
"There you go sir" I say to the man who called for clean up service as he got pissed drunk and trashed the room which I just had to clean since I'm a cleaner but I also sometimes work in the hotel restaurant as a waitress.
"W-whatever" he slurrs from the bed while hugging a bottle of vodka. "Have a good night" I say before quickly leaving the room with my cleaner cart. I shut the door behind me before walking down the hallway.
.
Once I've dropped my cleaner cart off at the supply room where cleaners and janitors leave the equipment they use. I start heading to the cresh to pick up Dove when I suddenly sense someone trying to find me. Nobody's tried to locate me in a long while since the witches I escaped from eventually gave up on finding me which I'm ever so grateful for but I wasn't going to take any chances so I always put a cloaking spell on myself and my daughter.I will have to find out who is trying to find me once Dove is asleep.

I arrive at the cresh and smile as I see my little angel "mama!" She squeals upon seeing me "hey baby girl. How've you been?" I coo as I crouch down in front of her once I reach her."Good, mama!" She replies clapping her hands making me giggle as I pick up. "Come on you, it's way past your bedtime" I say waving to the cresh workers as we leave.
.
.
We reach our suite and I feel Dove getting sleepy already. "Okay let's get you ready for bed and get your teeth brushed" I say as I place her on the bed.She stays perfectly still as I move over to the set of draws that contain our clothes. I grab a pair of PJ's for her and me before heading back to her.
I quickly change her into her pj's before heading to the bathroom so she can brush her teeth.
.
Once she's brushed her teeth, I put her on the bed that we share. She did have her own crib which a kind lady gave to me but Dove got to that stage where children like to climb a lot and get out of their cribs even though she's only a year old. Anyway once she figured out how to get out of her crib, she kept climbing into bed with me, wanting to be closer to me which I don't mind as she's my baby so I just stopped putting her in the crib."Okay you go to sleep" I say as I tuck Dove into bed "story" she says making me sigh "no, baby it's very late and you need to sleep but I promise I will read you two bedtime stories tomorrow" I compromise "okay mama" she replies holding her unicorn teddy bear to her chest as she pops her pacifier in her mouth. Yes she still uses a pacifier but only for bedtime as it helps her sleep.
This is Dove's unicorn teddy
I kiss her on the forehead before grabbing my pj's and heading into the bathroom to get changed.
.
Once I've changed, I exit the bathroom and find Dove is fast asleep, humming away like she always does.I smile before heading over to the padlocked wardrobe where I keep my stuff and by stuff I mean my grimoire and other witch things that I collected over the years. Some things I actually got off an elderly witch who pitied me and wanted to help me and my daughter.
I unlock the padlock and open the wardrobe to pull out the big wooden box that I keep everything in. I also keep it padlock which I know makes me seem paranoid but after everything I've been through I'm never one to take chances and if by any reason I have to suddenly up and leave. I can just grab it and go.
I unlock the padlock and open the box. I pull out the crystal necklace that belonged to my mother. She gave it to me before the witches attacked us and tore us apart. The witches did take it from me but I got it back when I escaped, I wasn't going to leave it behind with them as it's a very rare and powerful crystal. The crystal came from the island where sorcerers and sorceresses lived hundreds of years ago but when they were hunted down and slaughtered almost to extinction. Greedy witches stole the crystals, wanting them for their unique healing and protecting abilities but also because the crystals are magic themselves. One day when a bunch of witches invaded the island.
My great great great grandmother Helga who was angry and heartbroken by what the witches were doing and because their beloved home was destroyed so she made the hard decision of destroying nearly all the crystals except three which were made into necklaces and given to three of the high ranking and most powerful families, one of which was Helga's daughter my great great grandmother Michelle. Michelle fled the island with her children and husband while Helga sacrificed herself by conducting a powerful spell that made the volcano on the island erupt which killed everything in sight.
.Once I've got what I need, I head into the lounge area and set everything down on the coffee table.
I use magic to light the candle before holding the necklace up and I start chanting.
The necklace starts to move and I start seeing images of a witch with brown hair, brown eyes and caramel skin chanting as she looks down at a photo of me from when I was five years old.
I frown and chant harder trying to find out why who she is and why she's trying to locate me. The image starts moving as if I'm peering through a telescope from a far and I see two other girls on one side of her. One is a brunette and is human while the other is a blonde and a vampire.
The image moves again and I suddenly suck in a breath as it shows two men. One being someone I don't recognize but the other man, I'd recognize him anywhere. That's my father, oh my god but how is this possible? The witches told me he was dead, they said they killed him but obviously they were lying because he's very much alive.
I stop chanting and take a sip of water before I start chanting again. "Where is he?" I ask as the necklace starts moving and I get sudden flashes of of a boarding house followed by a bell tower and a sign which says welcome to Mystic Falls. I stop chanting after that "Virginia, Mystic Falls. Hmm well looks like me and Dove are going on a little trip" I say to myself before blowing out the candle and gathering everything up as quickly as possible.
I'm gonna need the day off tomorrow and most likely the rest of the week. I should be able to get out of work since I've never had a day off and I always work hard or maybe I should just quit and leave since my dad is alive and I know where he is but I don't know how he's going to react when he finds out I'm a teenage mother.
I'll just ask for a week off for now and if all goes well, I will come back and hand in my resignation but I will take everything with us which isn't a lot.
End of chapter. What did you think? Any good? Davina and Dove are going to Mystic Falls. What will happen next?
