Chapter 2 Prize He Paid!

Alex's point of view :

I never wanted to be a Master. All I wanted was a simple happy family the way I was blessed with. I was a 1800 years old simple warlock who was born in a simple witch family with a loving mother, Isabella who was the head of the one of the strongest witch coven in the world, a caring father Lorenzo who was the most powerful warlock/wizard of the whole world and leader of the all the heads of all the coven, an overprotective and possessive elder brother Alessandro who was 20 minutes older than me and an absolutely always worrying, mother hen elder sister Aurora who was only 15 minutes older than me.

Even though we were triplets which itself was a miracle considering the fact that witches can't conceive easily and if they did it's really hard to give birth since the child sucks the energy of mother. But taking in the note of the fact that we three were kids of the two most powerful witch and warlock/wizard, the triplet pregnancy was possible. My mother made it with the help of father's magic and we three were born. The first triplet pregnancy of a witch, after the first twin pregnancy of my grandmother. Resulting in my father and that bastard Arthur who killed my whole family along with the life of my life, my Daniel.

Daniel a 1600 old wizard/warlock, we both were in a relationship for nearly 80 years before that Arthur killed him along with my mom, dad, brother and sister nearly 5 years ago to gain their power but got nothing at the end of the day and from that time, I am searching him in the whole world like a mad man since he has decided to go into a hideout like a coward he is after knowing I have gained the power of my family.

Now it all must be really confusing for you, right??? Okay then, I will explain it. How it works in the supernatural world.

Normally humans live for maximum 100 years but we supernaturals are different.

Unlike werewolves, mermaids and other shifters who live for 1000 years, or sirens who live for 600 years, dragons, phoenix and fairies who live for 10,000 years, we witches/warlock live for eternity as our source of life is nature. As long as we can absorb the energy from nature we can live.

Just like vampires, we are immortal unless killed. Well that ain't simple either considering the fact that every witch is born with their own special death weapon which can literally be a weapon, a thing or a way to be killed. Which can be just anything.

Unlike werewolves, other shifters and vampires, we witches don't have mates unless one is mated to a werewolf, shifter or vampire. We have the choice of choosing our own life partner according to our wishes.

Just like humans, we can fall for whoever we want and can bond with the love of our life. Just like werewolves, we witches bond for life too and after bonding, if a witch dies then her other half dies too. Just like mates.

Although it's hard for a witch/warlock/wizard to die still, if one dies then her/his powers either return back to nature or it goes to the person she/he has named her powers to. Yes, just like humans make a will for their properties, we witch/warlock/wizards are able to make a will for our power using a special magic trick, so one day if the said witch/warlock/wizard dies, then it will go to the person she/he wish to. If the powers are not willed then after the death of the said witch/warlock/wizard there's a possibility of his/her powers automatically going to the twin of that witch/warlock/wizard, if they have one. Since they share the same soul. They are considered as the parts of the same soul.

That's the reason Arthur killed my dad because he wanted to gain his power and use them, become the strongest magical creature of this whole world and rule the whole world but all his plans went in vain as even after killing my father he got nothing. Because my father and mother had already made a will for their magic and you are right. It was me who gained it. Maybe because I was the smallest and weakest among my family that's why they willed both of their powers to me. Maybe to protect me. I knew I was weak as I didn't had much magical powers and my mana (the magical soul of a witch/warlock/wizard was weak) but my mom and dad had always told me that my strength is not my magic but my heart, my strong will and I was strongest among my siblings. I had never believed that but pretended to do just to make them happy.

Back to the topic, since dad had already written his power on my name in his will, that was the reason why Arthur got nothing even after killing him.

My dad was the strongest witch/warlock/wizard in the world and so was his death weapon.

My dad could be killed using his own blood only, that's why Arthur killed my brother first and then my sister who tried to come between the both. Using their blood he killed my dad and like I said before. A witch/warlock/wizard dies, if their bonded one dies, so after my dad's death my mom died too.

Since we were triplets, after the death of my elder brother Alessandro and sister Aurora, their powers were also transferred to me making me the most powerful creature alive in the world.

But as they say, nothing is free in the world. If we gain something we need to lose something. Every power comes with a prize and I paid that price. A huge prize since I got the huge power.

In exchange of that power I lost my family, my love.

Arthur knew now I am the owner of the power he desired. In fact I got much more than he had ever imagined so he killed my Daniel to get me. But I had never bonded with Daniel. Even though we dated for a long time, still bonding was a big deal and I didn't want to be bonded to anyone until I became powerful so I could protect my loved ones.

That day I lost my love. The love of my life was death. Yeah, I got power but I lost all of my loved ones. I got the strength I desired but along with it came loneliness, emptiness, a hollow in my heart.
