I forgot my worries suddenly. I might be the cheerful type but I also noticed things. Why it happened like that? Kelvin is not a warlock or demon or I donāt know. I just donāt know because I didnāt even recognize his presence.
I put the groceries in the kitchen orderly why Katrina walk in gracefullyā¦ I look at her and she roll her eyes.Keep rolling your eyes, maybe youāll find a brain back there.I said and she gasped.

No, Iām okay, I answer him . you just fall and youāre saying that youāre okay? He asked.I didnāt fall. The floor just needed a hug, I said and he kinda smile.
Funny but sweet. This is the funniest thing I have ever heard this year, he said and I smile back.Did you swallow magnets? cause you are attractive! I said in a low tone but I guess he heard it.
Whatās going on? Why with the smiles? Kelvin I called you here to tell you that your nanny here just insulted me and you both are doing smiling pageant? She asked.
And you , its about hƦrd time you stop flirting with Kelvin because heās taken. Heās mine and mine alone, she said referring to me.I used to be a terrible flirt.I guess Iām much better at it now, I said leaving the kitchen.
I went in my room and slum my door. I just hate her as much as she hate me, I said talking to myself. I guess hate is a strong word. Wonāt you cook something for me to eat? I hear Kelvin talking from the door.
I guess your mine can cook it. Stupid love thing with alot of stupid insecurity and jealousy.. I said getting up. Its a sweet thing you know. You loving someone and the person loving you back is sweet, he said.
Spare me that talk, I said. I walk out and went back to the kitchen. I wanna eat buffalo chicken wing, he shouted from behind me. Okay sir, I said..
The mistress of the house has already left the kitchen.

Who does silly things like her? Imagine her saying the floor needed a hug. I begin to get busy with some paperwork. I decided to watch her cooking but I donāt want Katrina problem or should I say Kate problem?
I got so confuse at what to do because I donāt even know what to do.
Babe, Katrina said sitting near me. Yeah? i said answering her. Can we go out on a date? Travel for a week just the two of us to relax? She asked. No Katrina. I just from a trip remember? I asked and she just nodded.

You can just fire her and we go back to eating from the restaurantā¦ she saidā¦
I just ignore her.. This is getting outta hand. I went in the kitchen. Kate was cooking the hot sauce pepper while the chicken wing was on the grill.
Can I help you with that? I asked her. Yeah sure, I need to fry the fries, she said. All you need to do is keep stirring the sauce so it wonāt burn and help me reduce the stove voltage, she said and I did.
She begin to fry the French fries while I just stire the pot and also stares at her.
She look at me. You can put that down now. She said and I just nodded. I held my stomach. What is it? She asked me. I wanna eat, I said. Aww boss. Canāt you be a little patient? Besides thatās my position you wanna take,she said.

She took the chicken out and put in on a tray. It looks so yummy. My mouth become watery immediately. She cut piece and put it in the plate alone with French fries and sauce and red pepper with the butter.
She grab a fork and a table knife. She cut piece of the chicken and dip it in the sauce . haā¦ open up,she commanded me and I just look in her eyes. Donāt be a shy boss, she said and I did.
She place the content in my mouth. I begin to chow on it. How does it taste? She asked. I made a funny face. Oh my gosh. Donāt tell me its horrible. My cooking skills is the best, she said..
Iām kidding. This is the best of it kind, I said. Now can I have more? I asked.. Yeah sure thing,she said and I smile.
I didnāt realize I was eating all the food till I went for my six rounds. She stop feeding me and look at me. What is it? I asked her. What are you? She asked me. Have she notice Iām not a mortal?

š¹Kate POVš¹
I drove at the company. I just wanna take my mind off Katrina before she made me mad. When Iām mad I do lots of crazy stuff and I refuse to get mad because of her.
I entered Jason office. Hey Ja, I said hugging him. Kate, how are you? He asked. Iām okay,I said smiling. Do you mind watching a movies with me? I asked and he nodded.
Thanks, I said getting up. We went outside. Is that Kelvinās car? He asked and I nodded. Oh wow. He doesnāt allow people touching his cars including me and Katrina..
We got in,side and I begin to drive. I begin to have vision of what cause the hell quake and it turns out to be a sirens. Look like we gonna listen to classic music after all..
I was not paying attention and boom I almost run into a car. Jason was fast enough. Next thing I noticed,police was behind us.
He told me to pull over and I did.
š¹Kelvin POVš¹
What happened? First you said you wanna meet a friend and you happened to be with Jason? I asked Kate. Jason is my friend.
A cop pulled me over and told me āPapersā, so I said āScissors, I win!ā and drove off, she said smiling. Goshā¦ seriously?? I asked her and she nodded.
Canāt you be more serious on matters? I asked her. You donāt want me being serious either, she said going in her room. Did I made her angry or serious?
I went in my room and took my shower. I couldnāt hear from her so I decided to go out and check on her.
I saw a beautiful white cat in the living room. What will a cat do here? When I got closer, I realized it was Kate who shift into a cat. I pick her up or should I say the cat?
š¹Kate POVš¹
He pick me up? Hey where is he taking me? I just lay in his muscular chest. He took me to his bedroom and lay me on the bed. I mean his bed.
Its late and cold outside you might catch cold out there and never leave this house, he said covering me with his duvet.
Aww, he doesnāt even know Iām the one who shifted into a cute cat..
I close my eyes and he begin to rub my fur until I close my eyes and begin to.sleep. good nightā¦ he said k-ssing my forehead. Ewww, I said to myself.
I got up soon morning and went to my room. I change into my human form. Where the mistress slept last night that I didnāt see her? Kelvin just ruin my chances of meeting with our song goddesses, the SIRENS of course.
I prepared breakfast and left it on the table. I took a cab and went to Maggie house. Morning sis, what are you doing here? She asked me.
Iām here because of the hell quake and it seems like our demon here is the music goddesses. SIRENS? She asked and I nodded. I never fought with a sirens before so I donāt know the super powers it ppossesses, she said.
I know. Here are things they do..
A sirenās main drive is their need to be loved, and will seek in anyway be it sā¬Ćual, platonic or familial. Sirens are also naturally solitary creatures, keeping to themselves, while moving from victim to victim seeking love. Sirens can appear as they wish, but their true visage is that of a pale humanoid with hollow eyes and mouth that appears fused shut.
Sirens can manipulate feelings of love, whether sā¬Ćual or platonic, and causes its victims to kill someone they love. It first charms its way through the victimās defenses by reading their mind and pretending to be the āperfect personā for the victim.
Powers and abilities
Shapeshifting ā A siren can change its shape to appear human. It may seem to be either male or female, depending on how it chooses to approach a victim.
Sirenās song ā The sirenās song is transmitted through saliva, infecting their victims through a fluid transfer. The infection leaves traces of oxytocin (a love hormone that provokes feelings of euphoria) in the victimās blood.
Telepathy ā Sirens can read minds, allowing them to become the type of person a victim needs them to be.
Weaknesses
Bronze dagger and victimās blood ā The only way to kill a siren is to stab it with a bronze dagger dipped into the blood of someone it has infected. The death of a siren releases its victims from its spell. I said narrating the wh0le sirens profile.
So where are we gonna get a victims blood and a bronze dagger? She asked me again. I will make the dagger. I just need some purple and red candles ā¦ But you need to get Rikki out of sight completely. Iām not here to answer questions,I told her and she nodded.
She carry Rikki out while I was left alone. I use my powers to get the candles to me including some herbs.
I chanted on them and boom our bronze dagger was ready.. All I have to do is just do a connecting spell.
šMaureen POVš
What? Nobody can take Alex. Who dare take him? I couldnāt feel his presence. It was like Iām losting track of him.
I telepath in his head and luckily I found him. I told the others and we went to the location. We met a pretty girl outside with Alex. Heās a good killer and I canāt lose him. Heās also a vampire and now she wanna ruin it.
Look who we have here,she said smiling. I love you smiles, I told her smiling too. And I hate yours, she said. I grab the mystiki flauto which belong to the sirens of ancient greece.I begin to play the favorite melody Which isāthe devilās tritoneāā¦
My colleagues all join in playing the flauto.
šWriter POVš
Kate chuckled at the sound of the mystiki flauto which got the sirens to wonder why it didnāt take infect on her. If this canāt take infect on her then their songs wonāt because its more powerful than the songs.
Thatās a nice melody thought, Kate said. Who are you? Maureen asked. Have you heard of a witch originals? I guess not and Iām happened to be one of them. See Lucifer didnāt kill me and I bet you wonāt, Kate said.
I was thinking about tracking you but Iām glad you bring yourself and this is going to be so simple for me to kill youā¦ Kate said dipping the dagger in Alex to get some of his blood. I just hate vampires, she said. Alex body heal immediately since heās a vampire.
Meanwhile, Kelvin was in the cloud .. He put a protection over Kate making her immune to all the sirens threaght. He could take them all but it was forbidden. When he look down he saw Alex and sigh.
Iām wondering how many people you have killed? He asked telepathing Alex. More then I can count, Alex answer telepathing him back. Kelvin notice Alex wanted to get up and attack Kate so he bounded him with a heavenly rope.
I think you should learn to stay quite, Kelvin said. In a blink of an eye with the help of the invisible spell and Kelvinās Kate got rid of the sirens and she was really weak because of the energy she wasted.
He vision became blur and was about to fall when Kelvin came down and grab her. He flew in the cloud with herā¦
