Chapter Nineteen – Spell to Undo
Arielle was sitting cross-legged on the floor of Addison’s bedroom. She had a clipboard on her lap. She scribbled some words onto the paper and looked across the room where Addison was sitting on her bed. “You promise this will be used to help someone and not harm them.”
Addison climbed off her bed and sat down on the floor next to her sister. “I promise. They ask too much. I just want to have fun. I do not want to involve myself in this war.”
“Then do not,” Arielle pleaded. “Addy, just tell them no. Do not get involved.”
Addison shook her head. “There is not choice in it. I will do as they ask, but I will do it differently and hopefully it will gain a different result. I will give him a chance to make this work in his favor.” Addison held out her hand. “The spell, please.”
Arielle looked down at it. “You promise?”
“Did I not just say as much?” Addison waited.
Arielle sighed and handed it over to her. “Be careful, Addy.”
“I will,” Addison promised. She hugged her little sister and added, “I love you, Ari.”
Arielle nodded and left the room.
Addison watched her go and closed the door behind her. She headed back to her bed and placed the paper on the bed and pulled the potion out of her pocket. “This had better work, Ari. If it does not, your side is going to be quite unhappy.” She heaved in a breath and rubbed the potion vial between her fingers. “What was planned, shall not last. A chance not had in the past, shall be given the one who hast, the cunning to reverse this cast.”
Addison shoved the potion back in her pocket and sighed. Now, she had to find a way to administer this potion in such a way that the demon knew she had done it and so that Chris Halliwell had no idea until after he had eaten it. And he could never know who was behind it. She had no interest in having the Charmed Ones on her case. There was no possible way that would end in neutrality.
