"You're correct,"Onyx reasoned."But Willow never used so much magic in the past. She's been on a routine for years: days are William, nights are Willow. What do you think happens when you fuck up a schedule your body is so used to?"
It goes nuts.
That was obvious. It was like following a routine for years, only for it to be interrupted. It simply left you fucked over until you could adapt or return to what your body was comfortable with.
"Can Aurelia fix it?"Saint inquired.
"Maybe."Onyx didn't sound so sure. I decided to leave William’s room to give him some space, knowing he may take some time or decide to switch back to Willow. I at least reached for a bottle of water from the mini-fridge so he'd remember to take his meds.
"Is there a problem we don't know about?"Saint inquired.
"No. There are no issues with Willow, but I think Aurelia is dealing with some shit,"Onyx admitted."She has a specific assistant that won't get off her case, so she's trying to get her fired."
She isn't even in control of hiring her own assistant?
"Willow actually got her one,"Neo noted."I don't think the Coven liked my interference."
"You were involved?"Saint inquired."Bold royal moves."
"Nico was involved,"Neo admitted."He doesn't like when Willow's stressed about Aurelia. She is her best friend after all."
We need a grand meeting. It feels like we have to get more info from Aurelia to know what's going on with the Coven.
I reached the office door and knocked three times so they knew I was entering. Opening the door, I noticed Dimitris was at his desk and clearly on the phone. Onyx and Neo sat on the left side of the room while Saint was chilling on the right side. There was a clear empty spot next to him, and after I closed the door, he patted the spot to signal me to come to sit down.
"Problem with that is Aurelia may be spelled to not say anything,"Onyx noted."I think the only person she could possibly tell is Willow."
Why is that?
"Coven members are allowed to share information with those they wholeheartedly love,"Onyx revealed.
"Does Aurelia still have feelings for Willow?"Saint inquired.
"Wouldn't be surprised,"Neo admitted."You can see it from the way she looks at Willow sometimes."
"They never really ended things properly,"Onyx muttered. I could tell from his expression that his words held a much deeper meaning."When you're forced to let go of someone you love, it's not a choice you can accept."
But Willow's moved on.
"Yes."Onyx sounded sure about that."Willow is the type that once something is over, she won't pursue it again."
"But Willow knows Aurelia still loves her?"
Onyx was silent, but Neo replied,"When you know your love can destroy everything the other person has worked on building, would you really take the risk of opening that door again? Or pretend to be oblivious even if it means hurting that person you care dearly for?"
I understood exactly what he was trying to imply.
"Until Aurelia is able to pull away from the strings that control her in this power play of magic, she’ll never enjoy a happy ending with Willow,"Onyx admitted. We noticed Dimitris had hung up the phone, but Onyx continued so he could make his point."Willow has moved on for Aurelia's sake. I know to us, Aurelia is rather crazy and over-powered, but Willow got to see the raw side she hides from the world, and as her friend, I've seen a mere glimpse of it. To simply put it, Aurelia and Willow would have been a lethal combination that would have ended in a tragic tale on both ends of the spectrum."
"So the lesbian version of Romeo and Juliet,"Saint concluded.
"Essentially,"Onyx agreed."Our kind doesn't get along with witches. Just like witches don't normally get along with wolves. Now imagine how powerful Willow is, then add in gaining the position of Roberto and dating Aurelia, who just ascended to a sudden vacant spot in the Coven after she'd been denied for years."
"That just smells like a disaster,"Saint gruesomely stated.
"I feel as if they don't want Willow being friends with Aurelia for a reason,"Neo calmly noted."Why else would they try to raise tension between them?"
"They're creating tension because they're afraid Willow's about to take a spot in the High Court," Dimitris announced out loud, drawing our attention to him. "Viktor's on the way here to discuss it.”
