Chapter 8A Chapter by LeticiaIt was time to get serious Alina knew
that with the arrival of Alexander and the other known head of the supernatural
world it was time to put what small plan she had into action. It might not be
what she wanted to do but if it got her to her objective she would do whatever
was in her power to achieve it. Alina entered her room and headed straight for
the bathroom where she had her sloths ready for the shower she so needed before
going down for dinner. Alina took a quick shower and went to her vanity to get
her brush and do her hair, as she approached the vanity she cold here rattling
from one of the drawers. She found the draw the noise was coming from and
opened it inside she found a neckless with a key hanging form it. The key was
particular decorated its head was made out of crystal and it was vibrating with
energy. Alina picked it up the glow lessened and an image flashed into her
mind. A fire burned in the middle with six woman surrounding it laughing and
smiling. The image faded quickly leaving behind a sadness that Alina didn’t
understand. “Alina time for dinner.” Mino’s voice
came true the door. “Coming.” Alina said as she put the key
around her neck hoping that the vision she just had would be good and would
come true in the near future.
“I want to go out tonight.” Alina said
as they were eating dinner. Enrique who was sitting at the head of
the table put his fork down and looked up toward his niece. “Where is it that
you would like to go?” He asked. “Just go out and visit some of my old
hang outs and friends.” Alina said as she put another bite of her food in her
mouth. “You must be careful there are many
people that would like to see you dead.” Enrique said after a couple of minutes
of silence. “I have come to understand that there
will always be somebody out there that is going to want to kill me but how many
people have already trade and I am still here.” Alina said putting her fork
down and pushing her plate away. “I am not going to give them the satisfaction
of think that they have scared me so bad that I am hiding.” Alina finished
taking a drink and looking at her uncle. “That’s fine just make sure that when
you go to take Mino, Sabro and Brenda many people know that one of the Luna’s
has reappeared but they do not know how you look so you should be fine.”
Enrique said knowing that Mino would keep tabs on Alina and if she did anything
out the ordinary he would find out. “Have a good night uncle I will see you
tomorrow.” Alina said knowing that Enrique was satisfied and content for some
reason. That he was not really worried about her going out, there were secrets
wing in her uncle and that was something that made Alina really curies and
hoping that she would get the answer that she was looking for soon. Enrique got
up and headed out of the dining room. “So where are we going?” Mino asked
curiosity flowing in his eyes. Alina smirked and looked around the
table, “We are going to my favorite place, I need to clear my mind.” Alina said
getting up, “I will meet you guys in the garage in ten minutes.” “Wait where are we going you haven’t
said.” Mino tried to stop Alina but she had already left the dining room. “Don’t even bother she will not listen
to anybody until she reaches the destination she has set.” Brenda said as she
moved her plate away from her and got ready to get up. “It’s a miracle she lasted this long I thought
she would have broken down and made a fuss by the send day.” Sabro said looking
at the door Alina had left thru. “No, the only reason she is going out
today is because she can finally control her powers to the point that she feel
comfortable to defend herself is somebody trays to attack her.” Brenda said a
smile coming over her face. “That is all good but where are we
going.” Mino asked getting exasperated with their talk and their ignoring him. “Come down we are going to the car
races, know go and get change or get ready if you need to because believe me
once she gets inside that car of hers she is not going to be waiting for
anybody.” Brenda said as she looked at Mino. Mino just nodded his head and headed out
of the room. He was in such a hurry that he missed the playful smile that
Brenda’s directed toward him. “Aren’t you going to go get ready?”
Sabro asked Brenda after he had assured himself that it was only both of them
in the room and that nobody was lingering in the shadows. “I look fine. I am just going to go meet
Alina at the car.” Brenda said smoothing her skirt that came up to mid tie and
a light blue spaghetti trap tank top. Once Brenda had left the room Sabro lean
his head back on the chair and let the air that he had been holding out, I
don’t know which one is going to give him the most problems today, but one
thing is for sure one of this days this girls are going to be the death of me.”
Sabro said to himself. Although Sabro had known Brenda for many
years he had always treaded her like a good friend, but since Alina came back
into their life’s he had started to notice Brenda more than just a friend. To
be owns those feelings had been growing even before that but Sabro kept denying
hem. Now he has to see Brenda dancing, talking and flirting with other man as
they tried to pick her up and take her way to unknown parts. “Oh well there is nothing to be done
know about it.” Sabro said as he got up and head toward the garage.
“It
feels so good to be back.” Alina said taking in the line of cars the people,
the people walking around and the music playing in the back ground. The place
was field with energy, Alina opened her arms up and let the energy that flowed
from this place in. She inhaled deeply a smile coming over her face. “Come down there, you act like if you
have been imprison for three years.” Brenda said as she laugh at Alina’s
reaction. “It feels like it. I am going to go say
hi to some people I will see you later.” Alina said moving away fast. “Wait.” Brenda tried calling to Alina
but she had already made her escape giving Brenda little chance to fallow her.
Alexander had decided since the dinner
at the Luna house was not until the fallowing night he was going to take tonight
and go out hunting and the best way to do that would be to go to a popular are
where there were supernatural creatures loved to rome. The first stop of the
night were the street races that were popular among all kinds of supernatural
beans. It was a place felled with energy and emotions that ran high. As Alexander pulled up to the massive gathering
he notice this woman a smile forming on her lips as she raised her arms to the
sky. She was talking to another woman next to her and then took off. Alexander
kept track of her as she worked her way through the crowed and headed toward
Devon. Devon was in charge with the car of the humans that attended this race.
His job was to make sure that everybody behave and fallow the rules that were
put in place in order to coexist with the humans and them not finding out that
the supernatural world existed. Devon had been talking to a woman next
to him but turned around as soon as he felt the presens of the woman that Alexander
had been tracking since he saw her. A smile was pasted on his face and he
reached out to her and pulled her into a hug. The woman went willingly and kiss
his cheek a smile on her face. Alexander had not notice but his
knuckles had turned white with the grip that he had on the steering wheel.
Alexander notice his action and got a hold of himself. He got out of his care
and made his way toward his old friend Devon and the woman that had capture his
attention.
Alina had spotted Devon and had made her
way toward him as fast as she could to get away from Brenda and Sabro that was
right behind her. Yes Brenda was her best friend but there were some thing that
she was not ready to share. Something that she need to find out before she made
anymore plans to move forward. Devon had been talking to this beautiful
woman but as soon as he felt Alina’s presence he turned around and pulled her
into him for a hug. Alina gave him a kiss on the check and smile up at him.
“It’s so good to see you. How have you been? Sorry for interrupting you.” Alina
said pulling back and looking into his eyes that were filled with laughter. “It’s no problem, where have you been?”
Devon asked concerned covering his voice. The woman that he had been talking to
walked away not before giving Alina a dirty look and a role of her eyes. “You know mw always into something.”
Alina said giving him a smile. “I went looking for you at Sabro’s shop
but that was close too.” Devon asked still waiting for answers to his question.
“I cannot tell you right know but as soon as I
can I will.” She said a little bit more series. Alina try to make him
understand her without actually telling him anything at least for the moment. “Okay, so what bring you over tonight?”
Devon asked looking around the crowd. It was a well-known fact that no matter where
Alina went Sabro and Brenda were always right behind her. Devon was wondering
how long it will take them to get her. “I came to ask for a favor.” Alina said
looking Devon in the eyes. Devon was kind of surprise at Alina’s
admission, this was the first time that Devon heard Alina asked for any type of
favor. Sabro was her guardian and he made it well known to everybody, by the
way he would spoil her whit whatever she wanted. Devon was humbled that at her
time of need Alina would think of him for a favor. “What is it that you need
from me?” Devon asked. Before Alina could get another word in a
man came up to them. He was tall with dark brown eyes that once you looked into
them, they seemed to be searching your soul. His hair was cut short and he was
wearing a leather jacket and dark blue jeans. “Devon, how have you been?” The man
asked his voice rich. He gave Devon a warrior’s handshake and then turned his
gaze to Alina and looked her up and down. “Hey Alexander it’s been a while since
you have come around here, what’s the occasion?” Devon asked curiosity in his
voice. Devon notice that Alexander just kept
looking at Alina and that was not good. Devon moved closer to her and moved her
a little behind him. It was that he didn’t trust Alexander but the couple of
woman that Alexander had been interested in had a habit of coming up missing or
appearing death within a couple of day of going missing. Devon cleared his throat,
“So what brings you here?” Devon tried once more. Alexander looked at Devon and then
motion to Alina, “Who is this beautiful woman besides you I have never seen her
before.” Alexander asked his eyes going back to Alina. “She is new to our word, she is under
the protection of Sabro her name is...” Devon was about to say her name when
Alina cut him off. “Ali, my name is Ali.” Alina said knowing that it was too
soon for anybody to figure out who she really was. It was one more night and
then the whole world could know. “Nice to meet you Ali.” Alexander said
extending his hand toward Alina. Alina was uncertain of shaking Alexander’s
hand since the energy that was coming of Alexander seemed to tray to pull her
in. it was more confusing than anything because it was keeping Alexander
protected but it was also pulling Alina in like a moth to the light. Alina took
his hand and the energy that surrounded Alexander travel up her arm and tried
to consumer. The energy was so strong in its attack that it made her loss her
balance and the lasting thing that she saw was the ground heading for her face.
When Alina woke next she was sitting in
the driver’s side of Devon’s car. As Alina turned her head around to see what
was going outside the first thing that she saw was Alexander’s face. Not even a
minute had passed since Alina had opened her eyes and saw Alexander next to her
when Alexander was pulled out of the way and Brenda took his place. “Are you
okay?” Brenda asked worried. Alina recognize that she had a valid reason to respond
as she had considering that it had only been about a week since she had
recovered part of her memory. “Yes, I am fine I just felt a little
fain probably because I didn’t eat anything earlier.” Alina said as she was
train to get to her feet. The energy that had engulf her was still
semi present because as she tried to get up she felt dizzy. “Maybe you should
sit back down.” Alexander said moving to her left side to support her. Alina moved away from him and steady
herself, “Not necessary I am fine.” Alina said giving him a close smile. Devon cleared his voice to get Alina’s attention,
“So, what do you want me to do?” Devon asked moving the focus from Alina fainting
back to their earlier conversation.
Alina looked from Brenda to Alexander
then back a Devon. “I will txt you later tonight and tell you all the detail.”
Alina said moving close to Devon and giving him a hug. In a whisper voice that
only Devon would be able to here Alina said, “I will meet you in two hours at the
dinner that’s in front of Sabro’s garage.” © 2014 LeticiaAuthor's Note
