Arjun's POV

I followed that black hooded guy down the market. He was constantly looking here and there just to assure that no one is there. I somehow managed to hid from his eyes. Where is he going? And the most important who is he?

I keep on following him until he stopped near the lamp post at the middle of the bridge. I hid behind the wall of a shop, which was nearest to the bridge, so that I could have a clear view of what's happening here. I stood their for like another 5 minutes but nothing happened there. He continued to stand below the lamp post.

I was about leave when I heard foot steps coming from behind . I looked in that direction and saw a girl in black coming. I immediately hid behind the barrels which was near the shop. I saw that girl was wearing an extra large cloak  which covered her body from head to toe. Her lips which was covered with bright red lipstick was the only part which was not covered. She walked and stood near that hooded guy. He turned towards the girl and I was able to see his face.

Jeremy????

Jeremy's POV

Red stood nearly one meter away from me. She still had that long cloak on and her lips were the only thing visible to me.

"I knew you would come. I have something for you to do." She said and took something out.

But I will not do any of her work,  dirty work. I will never harm Sheena and not let anyone harm her.

"I am not here to obey your orders, I am here to say that I am not going to work for you anymore. I quit." I stated. I was firm with my decision. I don't want money now, I am happy with my life. I don't want anything else now. Just Sheena.

By saying that I started walking to the castle but as soon as I turned I felt a stinging pain in my heart. It was so painful that I wasn't able to stand properly. I felt as if someone is stabbing me with a knife again and again in my heart. I knelt down while clutching heart. I couldn't even breathe.

Red circled around me and stopped just in front of me. Suddenly all the pain stopped and I started panting, filling my lungs with the oxygen.

"I can give you and that dog of yours, a much worse pain than this. You have to work for me." She hissed. I don't know how could she do this black magic but I know one thing that she is a witch and that too a powerful  one. She might also know the forbidden spells and God knows what else?

I looked at her as she took out a silver packet. She took my hand and put that packet on my hand. I opened that packet. It contained only one tablet. That tablet was big, it was like 3 cm long.

"This tablet will kill her in minutes. Oh, not even minutes, it will be mere seconds." She chuckled darkly. I don't know whether I should be terrified of her brain or her dark laughter.

I threw that pocket away and stood upright. "I will never do any of your work." I shouted at her and being to go to the castle again but Red's voice stopped me again.

"You are making a mistake kid. You will pay for this, along with that wolf friend of yours." She stated and came closer to me, " I will kill Sheena in front of your eyes and you will not even able to save her."

"Do whatever you want to do, witch..." I said and started walking. I might have been looking like a tough guy but only I know how terrified I was from inside. What if she harmed Luke? What if she killed Sheena?

All these kind of thoughts were swimming in my mind. If this witch could use that spell that she used on me, than she could anything. She can harm Luke. I need to meet him right now and alert him. I increased my speed and started running into the the forest.

After about fifteen minutes, I found myself under that same Willow tree. Without wasting any time I started whistling.

Soon, Luke appeared before me. His black fur was shiny and and his big eyes were sparkling like always.

"What happened? You look troubled..." Luke asked me in mind.

"I just came here to alert you." I said, I was still panting from all the running I did.

As soon as he heard the word 'alert' his pointed ears became more pointed. I took it as my sign to tell him everything.

Arjun's POV

The moment I saw that wolf with Jeremy, I understood what's happening here. I need to meet Mr Woods to clear out everything but first I need to search for more evidence against Jeremy. I used my supernatural speed and within seconds I was in Jeremy's room.

I started looking around for more evidence. There should be something, something that will prove that Jeremy is guilty. I looked in drawers and his closet carefully, without misplacing his things. I don't want him to realize that somebody knows his little secret.

I checked everything in his room but found nothing. I am so frustrated right now. I know Jeremy has something to do with Sheena's illness.

"God damn it, there is nothing over here." I muttered and in frustration I kicked his bed hard. Suddenly I hard something rolling on the ground. I bend down and saw a purple bottle below his bed. I grabbed that bottle and examined it. I opened it, I found it to be empty but still I took a sniff. I felt my head to become a little heavy as soon I sniffed the content of the bottle.

I know what was in this. Jimson weed. The same poison which was given to Sheena. This is what I was looking for.

Suddenly I heard someone coming this side. I immediately put that bottle in my jeans pocket and ran out of the room faster than the speed of air.

From the hallway I saw Jeremy going into his room. Saved...

I wasted no time and went to meet Woods.
