Third Person’s POV:
“Yeah. I need to talk to Natalie in private”, Stefan said in a serious voice.
“You want to talk to her in private? What is it that can’t be discussed in front of us?” Giselle raised her eyebrows.
“Please understand, Giselle. This is important! Please, trust me”, Stefan said while cupping her face.
Giselle took a deep sigh and answered, ” Okay”.
………
In Stefan’s room,
“I need you to do something for me. It’s for Giselle’s safety, but don’t tell her because you know she is an open book. She can’t hide things when she knows it. She can’t lie!” Stefan said in a low voice.
“I know her better than anyone, Stefan. Just tell me what do you want me to do?” Natalie asked in a calm tone.
“Can you please keep a barrier spell on her so that nobody will be able to hurt her”, Stefan said in a pleading tone.
“Oh yes, why didn’t I think of it before? I will do it as soon as we deal with these foxes!” Nate said with a nod.
The door of the room opened with a thud and Kevin walked in.
“I am sorry to disturb you like this. I like the idea of Stefan, about keeping a barrier spell on Giselle”. Kevin nodded in agreement.
“Thanks” Stefan smiled brightly.
“I know we are asking too much of you”, Kevin said, and looked down in embarrassment.
“Not at all. Giselle’s new family is my family too. It’s nothing!” Natalie smiled politely.
“Thank you. I wanted to give you this”. Kevin smiled back and then handed her a book.
“What is it?” Natalie asked in confusion.
“Ancient spell book. It was left by our father’s witch allies. If it can help you in any way..” Kevin was still talking when Natalie opened the book and shouted in excitement.
“Woah! This is a dark spell book! There are curses at the end of the book! I can destroy the entire town with it”, Nate said excitedly while reading the book.
“Natalie, can you please do me a favor? I am really ashamed to ask for another favor but it is important”, Kevin said in a low voice.
“Please ask it. I can do anything for a dark spell book” Natalie said cheerfully.
“With a barrier spell, put a protection spell also. It should be able to protect her from us werewolves’ only weakness… wolfsbane!” Kevin said sincerely.
After what happened with Giselle today, when she almost got abducted, he was scared that someone would try to hurt her and torture her with wolfsbane.
“That’s it? That’s all you want? So much pleading for a protection spell?” Nate asked with a laugh.
“That means you will do it?” Kevin asked with surprise.
“Of course, I told you I could do anything for my best friend. What you asked for is such a small task! I will surely do that” Nate replied, smiling.
“Thank you. Thank you so much!” Kevin said, smiling back.
There was another knock on the door. Kevin opened it to see Caleb standing there with Giselle.
Giselle’s hands were folded on her chest, indicating she was still angry that they didn’t let her in when they were discussing things.
“Everyone has gathered on the training field already” Caleb said plainly with, same pouty face like Giselle.
“Giselle, now don’t pout like this”, Nate said in a frustrated tone.
“I told you, we hid it for your own safety”, Stefan said in a pleading tone.
“Yeah, right” Giselle rolled her eyes and left.
“Don’t worry, she will be fine. I will take care of that too”, Nate said, while patting Stefan’s shoulder.
…….
They went towards the training field where Riven was having a paper in hand, he was taking the head count.
“Is everyone here?”
