Chapter 44: Duel between the Witches
"He’s not going anywhere with you," Morgana said, her own power beginning to stir around her like invisible flames.
Elizabeth sighed dramatically. "Such stubbornness. You always were too attached to your little projects, Morgana."
Ladraella Coven witches and Ilumariti don’t see eye to eye, and Ladraella had openly challenged many of their witches to assert their dominance.
For many years, the leader of the council had come from the Illumariti Coven, and it made the Ladraella witches bitter and angry. So they had chosen to mess with the ones who they came across.
And Morgana was one of the important member of their Coven, highly powerful, wealthy and one of the top beauties in the empire, what better reasons would they require to mess with her.
Elizabeth chuckled and she looked around at the other coven members. "Perhaps we should simply take what we want and be done with it."
The other witches began to move closer, their hands glowing with the Origin power.
Jaenor could see Taeryn and Baren huddled together in fear, and Darian’s hand was on his sword, though they all knew weapons would be useless against so many Oirgin users.
"Wait," Katerina said, raising one hand. The other witches stopped moving.
"I have a better idea."
She looked at Morgana with cruel amusement. "You want to protect your little servant? Fine. Challenge me."
Elizabeth raised an eyebrow. "A formal challenge? How... old-fashioned."
