Never Understand

Hunnie Inzotta

I stared up at Kris helplessly, there must be more of an explanation as to why I couldn't see my mate!

we stand in the bathroom together, eyeing one another, listening to the sound of feet scuffling just outside the doors and to the hall.

Kris could feel the shift in my aura after receiving the horrible news and it sent shivers down my spine. He knew I wouldn't go down this easily, so why was he here telling her this!

I could feel how deranged I must look. My nose was stuffy and running and my eyes were putting up a fight to stay open.

I was exhausted!

"Wh—What...

What do you m-mean...

I-I...I can't be with him?"

An unexpected sob erupted from the bottom of my throat. Thinking and praying maybe I heard Kris wrong. I tried holding back my tears, but my shock failed me.

"Exactly what it sounds like.

You aren't allowed to be with him, nor talk to him...

That's orders from his mother. Now don't upset us anymore."

"--But Kris!

I-I've m-missed him...

Why?...

I'm sorry...please let me see him!"

I plead, my knees becoming wobbly and I fall down to the ground, crying in my palms. This must be another dream. This can't be surreal. I can't be with my mate now?

"Hunnie I mean it!" Kris straightens his posture and squints his eyes while aggressively talking through his teeth.

"You mustn't approach him...

H-He's... different now...

His mother doesn't want him being triggered...

By you."

My mouth hangs wide open in shock.

My whole world crumbled down right before my eyes. Tears flowed down my cold, lifeless face endlessly as I watched Kris lower his head and walked out of the bathroom. I couldn't understand how he could go along with such enforced rules! I'm his mate too!

These, are my mates for heavens sake!

I have a bond with them!

I rush up onto my feet with ecstatic energy flying out from nowhere, out the doors of the bathroom, and frantically looking around for Kris through the now filled halls again.

"KRIS!" I yell once I spot his shiny brown hair bouncing through the crowd.

Kris only looks over his shoulder slightly and continues walking straight ahead.

"BUT KRIS, HE'S MY MATE!"

My voice rings out in the halls and I find myself yelling and crying above the many beings traveling about.

Kris looks over his shoulder, finally hearing me again then he turns around to face me, saying, "Not anymore," while shaking his head and he turns around to walk away.

I stand in the middle of the hall, frozen, watching him disappear as beings bumped into my body, continuing their journey and ignoring my presence.

The feeling of my cell phone vibrating in my pockets broke me out of my misery. It took me quite some time to leave the rooted spot and pick up my belongings I dropped.

Slowly, I click open my phone, apologizing through text for being late and wipes my eyes clean.

As I walk to my car, I looks all over incase I see's Kris loitering about with his friends. I really desperately wanted to see him.

This couldn't be the end of everything!

Not after everything we've all been through!

The shivers throughout my body was making my spine throb in pain. I tried my hardest to collect myself before facing the women, but there was no way to hide the crushed emotions my body was portraying at this moment.

Contemplating on what excuse I could come up with to cancel this small date I had with them, but no matter how I looked at it, I remembered how happy they all seemed when I agreed to go watch a movie with them.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to take long."I says once I approach the women standing by my car.

"You weren't even that long."

"Yeah is everything alright?"

Tenn and Lenah eye the noticeably saddened expression on my face with a worried look of their own.

"Uhm...not really but, I'll tell you all after we watch the movie."

Able to force a bright smile to my face, shining incredibly and the girls brush off the look I'vehas been wearing on my face all year.

Kris Tang

I travel through Witchy World, walking with no care in the world on the hectic sidewalk leading out of the academy. Huminoid beings riding skateboards with multiple legs were zooming by, over and between other beings walking along the wide path, but it didn't phase me.

I took out my lighter with shaky hands, reaching under my hair and grabbed a joint stuffed with The Giant's medicinal herbs and began toking all through my walk.

I nodded my head over at supernatural creatures I thought were fascinating to see, and over to the overly crowded tall and mystical water fountain many beings were having picnics around.

Stopping midway, I allowed my nose to take the wheel and find whom I came here looking for.

I must now change my whole demeanor.

"But, why is she alone?" I say out loud to himself.

I walks closer to the side of the fountain where that woman was seated at a metal bench, eating ice cream. After scanning the area, I shield my eyes from the sun by placing my hand above my eyes, and squint while scanning the area.

I can smell you, but where are you?

"Hey Kris."

"Hey Lydia...

Where did he go?"

I didn't even want to ask the red headed Siren going to town on her banana nut ice cream cone.

"Mmmm," Lydia lick her lips and looks up to the skies of Witchy World, thinking before she answers my questions and before she swallows the chunk of ice cream she bit off.

"He said he wanted another ice cream cone," She says, and I feel a shift in my heart.

Bahm, had truly changed indeed.

He never liked sweets, and here he is...dating and enjoying ice cream with this....Siren.

One I secretly hated, but I made sure to try my hardest to show I didn't even care for her, or else Bahm would begin to question why my sudden change in heart when I see Lydia. Of course I couldn't tell him it was because he still had a mate out in the world...

The dayBahm came back to us, he fainted after shifting back to his original body.

Everyone was afraid. They just seen a whole new version of Bahm's Demon-Wolf form, and it was quite massive and scary, but what frightened me the most, was when Bahm became conscious, he had no idea who I was..

He remembered his mother, he remembered Nyku, Leolo and even some of the older maids, but he didn't...eve...recognize me!

My heart broken, torn to pieces, I starved myself for weeks until Bahm was finally becoming aware that I must've been someone important to him, for his heart was embedded inside of this unfamiliar young face to him.

Bahm even woke up speaking in his ancient tongue before having learning English all over again.

Everyone who's been in the castle for hundred of centuries all worked together to speak that lost and ancient language to The King while informing him about the life he had forgotten in the passed 300 hundred years.

Thats when they began translating all the encounters and stories I had to share with Bahm even though he was still so skeptical of me. The castle was too working extremely diligently to create that connection Bahm once shared with me. They could all tell I was distraught.

But there was always a catch.

No one was to tell him he was sent to Hell by his mate, Hunnie.

He is not to know of Hunnie, not to know she's his Dark Witch of a mate, and not to know she even existed!

She was to blame for everything!

She was to blame for him forgetting all about me, and she was blamed for bringing him back to us a different and changed Demon.
