Chapter 81
Anthony right away jump off the balcony and land on the ground to check to see she is still breathing, he picked her up from the ground, the guard see Anthony with Kathy in his arms and open the door taking into the living as she is soak and wet from the rain. Sarah and Miles who was also there came downstairs to see Kathy is unconscious before you know it Queen Raine reappear in the living room.
“Anthony let me exam her,”
The servant body came into the living room too but was lay on the ground as the other witch exam it body and felt it, it was cold to touch and check the eyes there was no soul in the body either which mean Maria used the spell again and jump into a body but don’t know who.
“My queen Maria soul is not in the body anymore she must body jump again,”
Raine put her glowing hand over Kathy body to sense if her soul is still in her body then a powerful energy push Raine back also made her fall on the ground until Anthony grabs her. As she went back over to the body and to do it again that energy keep her from sense who has control of Kathy body.
“Queen Raine what just happen?” asked Anthony
“Maria is trying to take over Kathy body. Kathy has to keep fighting if Maria win, Kathy soul will never return to her body,” said Raine
“Please do whatever you can from Maria taking over Kathy body, she is my mate, love of my life and the mother of our children she can’t leave us,”
“I will do whatever I can. Can you lay her down on the floor?” said Raine. Anthony nodded, his face etched with worry, and gently placed Kathy on the rug as Raine knelt beside her, preparing to begin whatever magical intervention she could attempt.
Raine sat on the floor and closed her eyes as Kathy body started to glow, casting a soft light throughout the room. She reached into her pocket and pulled out a delicate necklace, placing it gently on Kathy chest. The necklace began to shimmer with an ethereal radiance, and everyone watched in anxious silence, hoping that her magic would be strong enough to save Kathy.
Kathy P.O.V
Kathy blinked, disoriented, as she slowly came to her senses in the enveloping darkness. The last memory she could grasp was struggling with the nurse—hands frantic, desperate—until they tumbled over the balcony and landed together on the ground. Now, as she looked around, she was surprised to find no blood, no pain, and no broken bones, only an eerie void stretching endlessly in every direction. Her heart raced as she strained to remember how she had gotten here, but the shadows offered no answers.
Then there is an evil laughing which Kathy look around trying to see where that laugh come from but there was no one, out of nowhere someone kicked in her stomach made her fly as her back hit the invisible wall.
"Once I possess your body, Anthony won't be able to tell us apart," Maria cackled as she sauntered toward Kathy, who was struggling to rise from the ground, clutching her stomach.
Kathy wiped a tear from her cheek, her voice trembling but resolute as she faced Maria in the swirling darkness. “Anthony and Max know my scent, our spark, they will know the difference if you try to take my body. Maria, I’m sorry you lost your child, and I regret that I killed Noah—even though he forced me to give birth months earlier. I’m lucky I survived, lucky I didn’t bleed to death. But that was your fault, Maria. You could have left that family at any time, but you chose to stay. You even tried to cast a spell to make Anthony forget about me and to take our bond. No magic will ever erase what we share.”
Maria yelled, "I'm going to take it all away, including your family and children," her words laced with menace.
Maria was blinded by the bright, white light. The transformation from the Pearl of the Ocean to a sword happened in Kathy's hand, the light vanishing, as Maria opened her eyes to see a weapon. Maria's eyes turned black as she backed up, her body covered in veins, clutching a sword in her hand. With a clang, Kathy parried Maria's sword, launching a counterattack while desperately focusing on keeping Maria at bay.
The battle between Kathy and Maria dragged on, stretching into agonizing hours as both women fought fiercely for control. Panting and battered, they circled each other in the void, neither willing to yield. Their breaths came in ragged gasps, eyes blazing with determination and desperation, each clinging to the last threads of strength and hope. Despite exhaustion threatening to overtake them, the fight for Kathy's soul and body raged on, fueled by love, loss, and the unbreakable bonds that neither magic nor malice could sever.
Then Kathy heard a voice then a necklace reappears around in her hand as she lightens touch it’s starts to glow.
“You have to get this necklace on Maria neck, but you must say this spell so her soul can go into the necklace, however it’s will not hold her power. You must be the vessel of that power,” unknown voice
Kathy wasn’t sure if that could happen, but she knew she had to try. Gritting her teeth, she clutched the glowing necklace tightly, feeling its warmth pulse through her fingertips. Determination surged within her as she took a shaky breath, locking eyes with Maria, ready to face whatever came next, even if it meant risking everything.
