A woman walked in and Adeline noticed her appearance. She had her hair in dreadlocks and there were things inside them. It was a leaf and some other had a kind of stone that was dangling from her hair. Her fingers were Full of rings and there appeared to be silver and dark colors, they had stones on them, all of dark colours.
She looked like a woman of witchcraft but with a touch of modernity.
She look like a hobo with the long skirt and the bracelets that were piled up to her elbows and jingled as she walked.
She started at the women with wide eyes full of what it might bring to her because whoever she had made till they had only caused her some kind of pain no matter how much she trusted or loved them.
The women smiled and adaline wins at the sight. The women had a full set of 32 teeth but they were rotten beyond treatment. "So you are here."
She didn't comment but watched as the women came closer and stood opposite to her, at the end of the table.
"I have waited for you." She said within expressionless face and watched Adeline with fascination.
"Why?" Adeline asked, trying to calm her breathing down but that did not happen, "why were you waiting for me when you do not even know me?"
"Know you or know of your existence?" The woman asked and the narrowed her eyes. "I know what you are doing deep down so ask me a questions clearly."
Ask her questions clearly question mark as anything adaline had never been answered clearly, so why was she to ask any questions now in the first place?
"Why? To what extent are you willing to answer them?"
She laughed, cackled actually. As if she was being amused by all of it. "Oh, love, I am willing to answer it all. After all, it is your last night here and then you'll be in Limbo. The least I can do is answer all your questions so that you do not hold it against me."
Adeline scoffed when she heard the woman's words. All she cared about was something that Adeline could hold against her when she was going to be killed. What was this woman scared of Adeline and coming back from the dead for her?
"What are you talking about? If anything I am going to hold this against Noah, not you!"
" Ah," she sighed dramatically as a huge weight had been lifted off her shoulders. " Well that is good then full stop it is a pain in the neck to take care of lingering souls."
"What is Limbo?" Adeline asked as she remembered what the woman had said earlier. Since she had promised to answer all of the questions asked clearly she was going to take an advantage of this.
She hummed. "Like. . ." She pouted and seemed as if she was thinking really hard about how to explain it to adaline. "Not there or here." She shrugged.
"What?" Adeline spat. "What here or there?"
She shrugged again. "Perhaps I could put it in a more easier way. It was like when you wanted to grief for your parents but you also want to give me forward. Not here or there."
When she heard the words the hair at the back of her neck stood up immediately in alertness. The women did not only know what was happening in her life for the past 6 to 7 months she knew what was going on in Adeline's minds as well. This information was told to no one, not even to her aunt and so there was no way that the woman could have manipulated it out of Tessa.
How in the world? She thought about it as she watched the women watch her with her curiousity.
"Amazing, is it not?" She mused, "your mind is at its weakest now given that you are physically weak as well because you have been out of contact with your made for so long." She giggled. "It will be easier to kill you and him. It would be as easy as squishing and and in between my fingers." She grinned.
" What do you want?" Adeline focused on the you. " I understand why Noah is doing it but I do not get why you are. What could you possibly want from me?" Her throat was dry and this time she did not cry as she asked the questions. When she was with Noah every time that she felt she was trapped she had started to cry but now all of her tears were dried out.
She laughed silently but her shoulders shook wildly. "I get to make history that no which could ever make before." She revealed and there it was. Her true identity which was that she was a witch.
"How?"
"No one has ever been able to be brought back from the dead after the spell was performed. There or no clear instructions to how they were to be brought back to life and no matter what a which sacrificed no when ever came back at least not as themselves."
"But this time we have managed to find something that could bring lady Isla back."
Adelene let out a whimper. She knew where the conversation was going. "You mean," she sniffed, "you mean my child?" She whispered on the verge of crying again. How . . . Horrific could it get?
The woman nodded pitifully as if she truly pitted the condition that Adeline was in. "Yes love that is the lost link that we needed."
"My child is the lost link that you need that? You ready to sacrifice a child that isn't even born yet?" She asked the woman who had womb too. If she did not have a child, it did not change the fact that she was meant for motherhood as well and she could at least have some pitty on her.
"Hmm," she hummed and sighed, "I don't really care." She shrugged.
