The Alpha's Unwanted Bride novel Chapter 335

Chapter 335: THE FIRE SERPENT

The women looked at each other and then turned back to Jasmine.

"No you are not a mage." Calline said.

Jasmine sent a sickening feeling in her chest.

She had never felt like she was a mage, never even considered it, but the prospect of it had lit a fire in her.

A fire of hope that perhaps she was something.

And that itself had crashed down just like everything else in her life always did.

"Of course I am nobody." Jasmine said weakly to herself.

"You don’t understand what we are saying do you?" Rashida asked as she threw the ball once again for Anna. "The tavern you stepped in is only allowed to mages. You and doggy here would never have gotten through it unless you broke the spell."

"And the staircase here too." Calline said. "We also suspect that even without our help you would have still been able to access this room."

"When the bartender brought you to us, we made an enchantment on the both of you. It worked for doggy over here but not you and that was why we got interested. No one he ever been able to break mine or Calline’s enchantments. And when you mentioned the fire serpent. We knew that you are of the most importance."

"What does this even mean?" Jasmine asked rather confused.

"Do you know how old we are?" Rashida asked her.

By now Anna was using her leg to itch her ear before going around to hop up and down, looking for her ball.

"I heard mages live long." Jasmine replied.

"I am Four hundred and sixty five. Calline is Four hundred and eighty. The fire serpent is six hundred years old. Our powers keep us from dying out. We live very long lives."

"And that means we have seen so many things. So many wars. So many packs court. We have seen them. But we have never someone who can defy our magic. Never."

"You are something Jasmine." Calline said. "Something that we didn’t even know could exist. You are not nobody you are something. And you are very special." _{freewebnσvel.cѳm}

Jasmine was dumbfounded. "Why can’t you just be the ones to find out if my wolf is hidden."

"Because we can’t see it." Rashida explained. "We have astral projection which means we can see through people. Through anything. We saw nothing in you. We didn’t tell you because there was no need. The fire serpent would see you herself. She has more knowledge than most witches. Male or female."

Jasmine’s heart was racing so quickly she felt she was going to pass out.

Inside mage city, in their courtroom, it was politics as usual.

The male and female mages were deliberating on how they were going to take new lands.

It was one of their festivals and she as a Mage of the first order, leader of her own pact, Miria leaned against the wall and watched.

The Queen, the overall mage and leader of Magecity sat on her chair as she welcomed guests from far and wide.

Miria and Queen Victoria had been classmates when they were just young girls and had come to mage city over five hundred years ago.

They had been best friends as soon as they met but once Victoria became leader of magecity, everything had ceased.

Miria had declined to stay and work in Magecity and instead gone ahead to work as the mage leader of the Wolf kingdom.

But she had had to leave after Queen Rose’s daughter had mysteriously disappeared.
