Witches Mates- Chapter 1
Tumblr media
Hey my loves! This is an actual, full length, WIP I'm working on. It's one of the things that takes up a lot of my time. I have a few (maybe 6-7) chapters written and I’m working on more. This story means a lot to me, I've put a lot of time and effort into it. I hope you guys like it.
This is an all 4 5SOS boy fic. All of them are with one character but they aren't with each other. I'm not sure how it will be taken but I want to put it out there and see if y'all like it.
Chapter 1, Chapter 2, Chapter 3, Chapter 4, Chapter 5, Chapter 6
"I thought we were going to surprise her," I heard someone say as the door to the shop opened.
"I need her help," a familiar voice countered. I walked out of the back of the shop with a smile.
"Whose help?" I asked my long time friend, Liam. I noticed his pack was with him and four others I didn't know. Yes, pack. Liam and his friends, Harry, Louis, Niall, and Zayn, are werewolves.
"Yours," he stated. I walked out from behind the counter.
"My services will cost you," I said. He smiled.
"I wouldn't expect anything different," he said before hugging me. "I've missed you. Happy birthday."
"You know I don't celebrate." I pulled back. "Who's your new friends?"
"J, meet Luke, Ashton, Calum, and Michael. Our parents are close friends," Liam explained, pointing at each one. "Guys, this is Jessica Lebeau."
"Nice to meet you all," I smiled as Harry cleared his throat. "Shut up, we talk all the time."
"That hurts, J," he said, putting a hand over his heart. I rolled my eyes before looking back at Liam.
"What do you need?" I asked.
"Danielle's hiding something from me. I need you to tell me what," he said.
"I'm not a mind reader, Li," I stated.
"Call her and ask," he told me.
"If she knows you're here, she won't be stupid enough to tell me. That's one reason I like her, she's smarter than you realize."
"It says outside something about tarot card readings," Calum said. "Don't those answer questions?"
"Most of the time, the cards give generalized answers," I told him. "I don't see the harm in trying, though." I walked back behind the counter and grabbed my tarot cards.
"Liam, have you ever had a tarot card reading?" Louis asked.
"Once and I didn't like the outcome," Liam said.
"You didn't like it because the cards told you someone was lying to you and it turned out your girlfriend was cheating," I reminded him as I spread out the cards. "Dani isn't like that so I'd say you're fine. Now, pick three cards."
"Fine," he sighed as he and the others walked to the counter. Liam pointed at one and I flipped it.
"Ten of Cups," I smiled. "You feel whole with her, completely happy."
"True," he nodded before pointing at the second one. I flipped it and frowned slightly. "What? Is it bad?"
"No, it's good. Four of Wands typically means you're on the right path," I said.
"Why'd you frown?" he asked.
"Ten of Cups can mean family and Four of Wands can be marriage or pregnancy," I explained.
"You mean-"
"Pick the last card, Liam," Niall interrupted. Liam pointed at his last card and visibly held his breath as I flipped it.
"You should call Dani," I mumbled.
"Why?" Liam quizzed.
"The Empress represents the life cycle, celebrates love, and the three cards together almost certainly means she's pregnant," I said. He pulled out his phone as he came behind the counter and walked to the back of the shop. The others started walking around the shop but Ashton stayed at the counter, staring at the tarot cards.
"I've never seen tarot cards like this," Ashton told me, running his hand across the back of one. "They're beautiful."
"They're handmade family heirlooms," I told him. "My mom's side of the family has done tarot card reading for generations. This symbol is our family crest." I pointed at the symbol on the back of a card.
"I've seen it before. It's the Firelight symbol," he mumbled.
"My family was around before witches chose the name Firelight," I lied. Actually, my family is the Firelight witch family. His eyes snapped up to meet mine.
"You know?" I laughed.
"Sweetheart, I live in New Orleans. Of course, I know."
"Hey. Is any of this stuff actually cursed?" Michael asked me, looking around one of the shelves.
"I wouldn't touch anything if I were you," Zayn told him. "You never know when it comes to J and her mom."
"J, what's the theme for the party tonight?" Harry asked.
"Witches," I told him as the shop door opened.
"And warlocks, right?" Calum quizzed.
"Language!" my best friend, Damien, exclaimed as the door closed behind him.
"What'd I say?" Calum asked.
"Warlock means oath breaker and is highly offensive to male witches," I explained. "Witch is a gender neutral term."
"Sorry," Calum said and I turned my attention to Damien.
"What's up?" I asked.
"Everything's all set up at your house," he told me. "The invitations have been sent and flyers have been posted."
"Great. Thanks, Damien," I smiled. He eyed the tarot cards and the three still flipped.
"Who's pregnant?" he asked me.
"Possibly Dani. I was reading for Liam," I told him.
"Damn," he whistled. "Tarot cards isn't how you want to find that out. I guess it's better than his last reading, though."
"Wait, you read tarot cards, too?" Michael asked him.
"Yeah," Damien nodded. "J taught me when we were, like, eleven."
"How long have you been doing it?" Ashton asked me.
"I learned to read tarot cards before I learned to read books," I told him. "I told you it's a family thing and Damien's practically family." Liam walked out of the back of the shop with a stupid happy smile on his face. "She's pregnant, isn't she?"
"Yes, she is," he nodded. I smiled as the congratulations rang through the shop. The standing clock in the corner chimed five and I looked at Damien, who smiled. I felt the wave of power rush through my body so strong I would've fallen to the ground had I not been resting against the counter. I closed my eyes to prevent the new comers from seeing my eyes glow a bright purple and I felt someone place a hand over mine.
"You good, J?" Niall asked. I nodded slightly, opening my eyes and looking at him.
"Never better," I smiled. I knew he realized what had happened because he smiled right back at me.
"Happy official birthday," he said with a wink.
"It's closing time," Damien announced. "Let's get the hell outta here."
"Go on. I'll meet you guys there," I said.
"Are you sure?" Harry asked.
"Yeah. I'll have to get my stuff together and lock up. I won't be far behind," I assured.
"I'll stay with her," Liam told him. "We need to catch up anyways." They nodded and left the shop. Liam looked at me. "Was that what I think that was?"
"If you mean me getting my full witch powers, yes, it was," I nodded.
"Have you already chosen a witch name?" See, here's the deal. A witch is given a name at birth, just like mundanes. But when a witch turns 21 and gets their full powers, they have to choose a witch name. The name they'll go by with their coven and other people of the supernatural world. My mother's witch name is Constance Firelight and her mundane name is Maria Lebeau. Damien's witch name Lejend Emberglow.
"I have."
"What name did you chose?"
"Mystia Firelight," I told him.
"It fits you," Liam smiled.
"Thank you." I collected my tarot cards and put them in their case. I put the case in my bag and threw my bag over my shoulder. "Ready?" Liam nodded. I grabbed the keys from under the counter and followed Liam out of the shop. I locked the door and made sure the protection spell was still intact then walked with Liam through the French Quarter to my huge house just outside of it.
Damien and the others were already there when we arrived. While they got into their costumes for the party, I went around the property's perimeter putting up a spell of protection from spirits that could rise and cause harm to me, my friends, or the party goers. Once I was finished, it was time for the party to start. Damien stayed outside greeting guests while I went to my room to change.
I changed into a black dress that hugged my body tightly and ended just above mid thigh. It was low cut in the front, going between my boobs, and was backless. The long sleeves were tight until my forearm then they flared out. I paired the dress with black, high heeled, over the knee boots and brushed out my long hair with brightly colored streaks. I did makeup with dark smokey eyes and deep red lipstick that looked like the color of blood. Once I was finished, I went down stairs.
I lit the elemental candles on the coffee table in the living room, deciding to call the elements to protect the party goers tonight. I lit the green one first. It represents earth and faces north.
"Earth, I call you tonight to keep my visitors grounded." I lit the yellow one next which represents air and faces east. "Air, I ask that you blow away any evil spirits that may try to do harm tonight." Next, I lit the red one that faced south and represented fire. "Fire, I call you to protect and guard my visitors tonight while they are here and while they go home." I lit the blue one next, facing west and representing water. "Water, I ask you to drown out any evil in my visitors hearts and minds tonight." Finally, I lit the purple one in the middle that represented spirit. "Spirit, I bring you into this circle tonight to ensure everyone is happy and has a good time."
