Chapter 33

"Wait a minute why do we have the same beads and some of the same body symbols?",she askef again,"for one you were to be mated to the chiefs son and every bead that makes it's presence know is what will happen in your life,and each symbol represent either what you want personally or it represents what we want as partners".she was taking it all in,I could see by her facial expressions,"and why are yours many?",she asked,"oooh now this is part of the tribe,each man gets as much symbols representing what they do and who they are, but women get only up to five you though might get up to a fifteen depending on how your beads feel that day",he laughed a little.

"Wow so you are a vampire", she whispers,"what do you feed on then if its not human blood?", she asked,"animal blood,warm when we go hunting and stored animal blood when we not going hunting which is not the best,but strictly no human blood" I said, "oooh that explains why I was the only one served in the kitchen and later on my sisters when they came".

"Alex once again I'm sorry",she came close to me and touched my arm which i wasn't expecting,"I was afraid of you that night, i don't wanna lie,but the moment I said I never wanna see you again I guess i said it out of fright and anger,but I really felt empty and I felt lost i guess that'ts a mate thing too",she laughed a little."I was devastated but one way or the other i had to put myself in your situation so i knew i had to here you out and yes I'm in love with you too,andI'm sorry too"Alex said,we looked at each other for a few seconds then I just couldn't help,it I had missed her so I did what every man in my position with the woman they love would do,I kissed her.

I had missed her soft lips and yes it felt like heaven we kissed slowly feeling every moment and every second of it then I lifted her up by her ass and put her against the wall,she lifted my T-shirt up removed it then threw it on the flow when someone knocked  on the door,shit all the time I thought.

I opened the door and Dumi walked in,"man why are you shirtless?",he asked making a funy face then he saw Alex,"ooh did I come at the wrong time?", he asked,"no we were just talking"Alex said blushing,"I see", Dumi said smirking then I stepped on his toe  and he immediately knew what's up."Alex I'm sorry for lying to you in your face everyday it wasn't my position to tell you the truth,but I'm sorry"Dumi said looking at her,"its ok I understand",she said,"so with the ongoing situation what are you going to do?",she asked.

"That's why Dumi is here",I said seating next to her,Dumi then opened a a huge map and started explaining,"people are willing to fight to put you back in your fathers position,it has been rumored that the white witch has been seen around and the black oracle works along side her and they might be the one that worked with your uncle to poison your parents no evidence yet but just a guess",my advisor said,"wait", Alex said "the black oracle I met her before",we all looked at her in shock,Alex what are you talking about I asked her.

"The day I came to see you that night,that's what I wanted to talk to you about she attacked me but she said she only works according to people's plans not that she's evil but depending on whose using her at that time,Ruvimbo saved me,after attacking the black oracle and the black oracle said before she disappered that no one can see her only the vulnerable and the evil in the same situation" my mate  said,"so you were the one vulnerable at the moment and Ruvimbo saw her too which meant she's the evil one" Dumi replied.

"The day she saved me too she had a basket full of baking ingredients including blueberrys,a green plant that looked like was alive and very bright,other things I didn't see but she quickly covered it",I looked at Dumi."Shit"Dumi said," it was the same plant in the woods that affected the hunters, and you Vusi changed after eating those blueberry muffins, cause I was worried you never attacked people at night  except towards or during  the black moon but only those chosen for you,yet you went straight for Alex and Tinashe because she wanted them to die".we then asked him the next move.

"I have assembled the warriors and everyone whose willing to fight for their freedom and justice,people are willing to start  a war,get back their freedom and bring things back to normal and they want you as their next leader,we don't care you were stripped of your duties now we all know why because the day you where stripped off is the day your father was poisoned it was all a plot,but we found out before they could even mess it up to the bone,now it's our time to make a stand and fight", Dumisani said and Alex agreed.

"I will be training everyone for the next two weeks,will carry on ours days as usual and Vusi you will go to the oracle and chief priest ask for them to call on to the ancestors and the goddess of war to lead us into this safely,and so the goddess of war can fight with us.be like your father make brave decisions because we need a Chief like him one day and we know you can be more than him"Dumi said in his advisor tone.

While in the middle of talking Dumi touched his shoulder and groaned,we both rushed to him, "what's wrong",I asked my best friend,then his eyes turned red,"hey hey Dumi what's wrong", I asked pushing Alex behind me,when he replied,"I feel Tichala's presents and he's with someone too but human, I feel their heart beats".

Ok ladies and gentleman another chapter is done and Vusi finally came clean and Alex forgave him,a war is coming people and guess whose   alive too💃🏾....lol till next time❤😘.
