Must Read: LARABA (Vampires. Werewolves. Witches..) - Season 1 - Episode 6

Alzarius dragged her face around before resting it on her sister; Luciana. She definitely knew after their acrimonious separation the last time, the entire wolf kind would still come back to look for her. They always did. Her witchery wasn’t the type people could just be spurned and get away with. Just the way it was now for the Larabas.

“You really need to do this for me now, please I'm begging you.” Arcoven pleaded but Alzarius hurled a disdainful look at her and scoffed. She didn’t intend to hate her sister though, it was their father she hated gruesomely, and it was just normal for his daughter who also happened to be her sister to share part of what she nurtured for him.

Being a child, Alzarius was bestowed with extreme sleight in the use of magic. Her dexterity in the use of magic was incomprehensible –and that had been something her father who by then was the Alpha to the werewolves in Laraba detested.
Her father so hated witchery more than anything. But Alzarius who was as helpless as a little retard who leapt off the cliff without a chute or any life saver would always neighed to his father's eardrum that she didn't choose magic but instead magic chose her. Witchery was something that she couldn’t stay away from because she believed it was gift to her.
However, while Alzarius’ adeptness in mastery of magic was sailing high, Luciana’s wolfish abilities were springing forth out of her, that at a tender age, Luciana had her first transformation which earned her respect amidst the Larabas and her fellow werewolves. Hereafter after her father’s death, she was made the alpha to Larabas.

Alzarius was still a nipper when her father died from an unknown enemy that poisoned his food with a wolf's bane--but little did it occur to her that her father's death was the beginning of her slough of despond. Apart from the fact that she wasn't allowed to visit her father's funeral pyre, even though she didn’t care much about that, the entire contrivance of werewolves in Laraba rose against her and demanded she should be sacrificed because she was symptoms of sacrilege they couldn't brook anymore.

Alzarius’ magic was gnawed away from her before was she arrested and tortured to the point of almost dying before her sister who by then had mounted the berth of an Alpha to the Larabas interfered. Luciana had to devise a hoax method to escape her sister from the
onslaught of her fellow werewolves.
Nothingness, the escape didn't just come gratuitously because it was accompanied with a stern warning.

"Don't ever come back to this town. You must forget you have a sister here. You don't have a sister and I don’t have any too. If you come back here who knows, I might not be able to help you just the way I am doing now. So go in peace sister and never look back." Luciana left the austere warning with her sister as she scrammed off Laraba and found another life in Locksley town.

"Please say something sister, don't just stare at me." Luciana pleaded again, earning another misted askance look from her sister. It was obvious Alzarius wasn’t bothered about her problems or maybe she was just pretending to.
But one thing so such for Luciana Arcoven was that she needed to get her sister to their side in other to win Ryan Jericho.

"Now what do you want me to do? To kill Ryan for you? That's impossible. You should know that." She smirked, feeling a less lenity on her sister who still stood in sulkiness. "And moreover I thought the sisters bond between us has been long cut into pieces the moment I left your town."

"I'm sorry for everything I said in the past, I said it because I don’t want you to come back and face the werewolves who were on bent on hurting you.” Arcoven defended.

"And so did your act of saving entail you to saber our bond?" Alzarius reposted angrily "We sisters Lucy! Bond by same blood, but you severed that when you turned your back against me."

Arcoven shook her head. 'But I didn't. Believe me, I never did"

Alzarius slammed the table. "Of course you did!
You need to accept that. I was all alone, deprived of the sisterly love from you. How the hell did I even have you as a sister?” Alzarius mouthed with anger screaming in her voice.

Luciana shook her head. "No! I didn't turn against you. I was only protecting you. You’ve got to believe me.” She replied.

"You did Luciana! You need to accept that.”
Alzarius bleated, intensifying the bickering between them. “You did when you abandoned me to survive all alone in the shadows. That was just too unfair from you.” Tear was building in her eyes.

Arcoven seeing that knew the best way to win her sister’s heart was to attempt a more cordial affable method. She just needed to succumb to her wish.

She moved closer to her and held her
shoulder. "I didn't abandon you trust me. I was only trying to save you. I couldn't just have severed our bond. Wasn't I the person that returned your magic to you after it has been confiscated? Wasn't I the one who released you from gaol? Well, fine, it was a dumbness of my tongue that asked you to forget about me but that was the best I could say to make you not to come back to Laraba. You know how much they detest you? You know how much my kind loath you? And you can't even blame them that much because father was the one that instilled the poison in them. But now father is gone and here we are. You and I are still here, sister don't you think it's high time we stopped loathing ourselves? Now here I am begging you to please forgive us and help us kill Ryan. Help us stop him before he produces this hybrid--the seed that will annihilate us all. You wouldn't want to see me dead now. I trust you on that. So please, help us stop Ryan. He is dangerous to us now, please!" She exclaimed, spluttering perspiration out from of her pores while megrims stood obvious on her face.

Arcoven was in despair and desperate mood. As the Alpha, she needed to at least spread little hope in the air in other to calm the minds of the Larabas.

Alzarius now felt pity as she stared at her sister. The leniency that left her before had returned. She held her in embrace in patted her back.

"I still love you. You know that, don't you? And I loved father too. All these while father hated me I never for once stopped loving you as a sister even I have tried to hate you but I can’t.” She cooed softly.

"I know you do, and I never stopped loving you too." Luciana muttered as they stay put in the warm embrace meant to solidify their new found bond.

Alzarius patted her sister’s back. "Alright Lucy, I will help you. I will help you stop Ryan."
She muttered, accompanying every syllable in each words with nods and terse smiles.

However, as simple as the sentence screamed, Alzarius knew it carried a very grievous meaning. It meant she had to betray Ryan. She had to choose her sister and her kind over a good man who sacrificed his mortality to save slew of life in Locksley. Hadn’t it been said that blood is thicker than water?

"Thanks Alzarius, so how do we stop him?" Luciana asked, happiness glimmered in her face. "Are we going to make use of wolf's bane because I've got about bundles with me or is it the vervain, I have more than enough with me also."

Alzarius shook her head. "No! That will be useless.” She said. "Ryan Jericho is an Original. He acquired his supernaturalism through the spell of Eden. A very powerful spell. Definitely, neither the vervain nor the wolf's bane could have any effect on him"

Luciana’s face fell. "So what are we going to do? Perhaps you need to undue the spell from him?" she asked.

"As much as that seemed to be the best way to stop him but unfortunately it's too late. The undoing could have worked on him in the past but not now. Ryan has grown more powerful than the undoing. "

"So what are we going to sister? This man is our doom and we really need to stop him. Please help us" Luciana said with evidence jitteriness had crept into her voice.

"I know Luciana,” Alzarius said with a gesture. "The only possible way to stop him is to entrap him inside somewhere--let say his house then I cast a spell to drain out all his blood. In as much he wouldn't be able to go out to feed, definitely he would die of exhaustions of his blood." Alzarius explained

“Are you sure about his plan?”

She nodded. “Definitely sure.” Alzarius replied, restoring hope on her sister’s troubled mind.

Luciana was extremely happy. Her mind was at peace knowing her shrewd plans of conniving with her sister had fallen just into perfect place, and of course that had been her bone of intention. With the manhunt for the hexed stranger who had been ill- starred to produce the seed that will head the vampires and the taking down of the powerful hybrid to be responsible for the unlucky seed--Luciana was cocksure victory was underway. And as a matter of fact she had successfully altered the event of the future.

Luciana smiled with self-complacent while Alzarius couldn’t. She was sad. She knew what she was about to do was a high point of vileness. It meant she would sledge Ryan on the most excruciating death ever. She would have to kill a good man just to please the people who once loath her magic. Even if Ryan had to die, it should be painless and achy-free. Not this type was she would be subjecting him to. He didn't worth any pain or whatsoever. What more could be more harrowing and painful for a vampire than to watch his blood seep out from him without being able to stop it while the hunger to feed kept gouging but he wouldn't be able to replete it.

“I'm sorry Ryan for what I'm about to do to you.” She said to herself
