Chapter 10
My coven was still shaken up over what had happened, and I couldnât blame them. Luna had congratulated us and said we passed with a perfect grade. Sheâd also said she was proud of us and that she admired our hard work, but this didnât even please Morgana, the bookworm and perfectionist.
The brunette felt guilty for killing her own kind. They all did, I could see it on their faces.
But I sure as hell wasnât going to regret doing what I had to do in order to survive. It was either them, or us.
And I was going to win.
Once we left the classroom, we walked down the hallway in an uncomfortable silence, and when I couldnât take it anymore, I turned to look at my coven.
âCome on,â I said, âletâs grab something to eat.â
âI donât really have an appetite,â Vesta muttered as she cast her silver eyes down to the ground.
âIt will be good for you,â I insisted. âTrust me.â
âHeâs right,â Akira said after a moment. âLetâs stop acting like little bitches and grab some dinner.â
âFine,â Vesta sighed, and we all headed as a group to the banquet hall.
Tonight, there was a full plate of red, rare meat, mashed pumpkin, and mixed greens. I was digging in, but when I looked at the others, I noticed most of them, aside from Akira, were only pushing their food around on their plates. For some reason, they looked miserable as fuck, and not one of them said a word as they slowly ate their dinners. I was beginning to wonder if they were still feeling guilty. If so, I wondered why. We had no other choice but to kill those witches. It was either them or us.
Finally, Vesta slammed down her fork, and we all stopped eating and looked at her.
âI hate to say this,â Vesta breathed as she looked around the hall, âbut that wasnât something I ever wanted to do. I feel so absolutely disgusted with myself⦠like I just committed the ultimate sin⦠does anyone else feel like that, or is it just me?â
âOh, and what?â Akira snapped with a scowl. âWould you rather be lying dead in that prison? Because thatâs where you would have ended up if you didnât do what needed to be done. Those bitches attacked us first, and personally, I donât regret a single thing.â
âYeah, I mean⦠no⦠you donât understand what Iâm trying to say--â Vesta struggled to explain, but it was clear Akira was not having any of it.
The black-haired witch raised her hand in an impatient gesture to make Vesta stop rambling.
âThereâs no room for fucking hesitation, Vesta,â Akira growled. âBack there, it was either them or us. What more is there to understand? We made it out of there, and now, weâre going to eat this dinner and drop the entire thing.â
âSheâs right,â I added, âif we didnât do what we had to, weâd be the dead ones.â
âBut--â Vesta argued.
âEnd of the fucking story,â Akira cut her off again. âNow, like I said, letâs eat our dinners and just forget about this bullshit conversation.
