The Witches White Leopard

Chapter 9

Kasy

“ Umm hello? “ I called into what Darren had said was a bedroom. Well Catmans bedroom in particular. I shuffle nervously a little further. This guy gets me nervous and frantic with one glance my way.

A bedroom en-suite and all, this plane was the ultimate luxury it really was. There was either crystal or diamonds everywhere you looked, soft satin and plush seats. All in natural tones that added even more class. If that was even possible!

Most definitely the most upper class place I’d ever been and it wasn’t even a place. It was a flipping plane!

This is just crazy money, he must have more money than he knew what to do with money!

I don’t think he heard me I crept into the room a little further repeating myself.

“Hello?"

I jumped hearing a smash from the bathroom. It sounded like an explosion had gone of.

The Catman who had rescued me came through swearing some very imaginative things, he came crashing out the bathroom turning round and flicking a switch.

“Temper temper Zada next time don’t ruin the new house/plane!” He’s shaking his head.

“The boss may not like you too much for that one Zada!”

He truly looked like he was talking to someone else that was actually him, how very odd.

Even when he was by himself (or so he thought) his voice was like deep liquid honey, pooling around me. Making me feel warm.

But then he stood, he had the smallest towel wrapped tightly around his middle. But it was far to small it only just covered his balls and butt!

I stood there in shock staring at him, also trying not to laugh at his towel situation! But taking in all the hard planes of his back and the way his muscles were defined in such a way only hours upon hours of training could do that. This guy must live in a gym! My mouth went dry, all humour had left me.

Then I noticed the scares, a slice down his side. What looked like a bullet wound on his top right shoulder and multiple others on him. It looked like he had been whipped when he was younger, long jagged scars ran along his back. They were clearly old and had grown whilst he had.

My heart leapt into my throat! What had happened to him?

I wondered how many there were on his front, remembering how he held me so close smelling my neck. That moment we shared before he went all boss man all business and just well rude!

I remembered then I was actually annoyed about that, but he had saved me from a god knows what fate. A massive shudder took over, it was one of those full body shudders. When people say that someone just walked over your grave! I think I understand that saying now.

I had the weirdest conversation with my ‘parents'. Darren had to intervene, as he said I wasn’t doing it right.

True I was babling like a wild woman about Johan and half Catman flying out of the sky.

Darren simply took the phone and said to them

“They found her, we have her, she is safe. You have done all you can do now. Yes I’m sure she will be in contact soon, yes of course bye.” Then hung up!

He then handed the phone back to me. Giving me a nod saying “Coops that way love I’ll get us going"

So here I am staring like a creep at Coop or Catman I liked the nickname better. Coop it sounds weird like that’s not his name. But whatever is going on, my adoptive parents knew! They were ready for this day to come and this is the man who saved me from whoever is supposedly after me.

That fear spread up my spine again I let out a mewl of fright, which alerted him to my presence! Oh s**t!

“Enjoying the view sweetheart?”

His British accent sent shivers down my spine. This time the good kind! They sent the fear away, just standing here with him. It was long forgotten!

God he sounds sexy like 007. Shaken and stirred baby.

I look up and Oh my, He’s turned round my eyes take him in hungrily. Like I haven’t eaten in a month and he’s the all you can eat buffet!

I felt the blush on my face again, being caught red handed staring at him.

“Umm I did shout for you, then i heard a crash.” I was shrugging my shoulder like it was no biggie. My face giving me away the hole time! Cursing my embarrassed face from here to the heavens I glance up.

As his eyes stared into mine, they flashed gold again for a second. Its really beautiful to watch.

I wanted to ask him what happened back there why was he so intimate with me then completely not and rude?

But decided not to. I didn’t want to be brushed off by the only man I’d actually found attractive in like my hole life!

His hand went to my chin and pulled my face up to look him in the eyes again!

Yes as I was staring at his pecs like I was mesmerised again. Come on Kasy get it together girl, he’s only the most attractive man on the planet. You can surely keep some eye contact!

He had walked over to me! When did he even move?

Now my face went crimson I didn’t believe it could get more red or me more embarrassed but I was so wrong.

Staring into his intense and beautiful eyes after being caught and him giving me a lopsided grin finding this highly amusing. His eyes went serious though just like that, his demeanour changed again. He was back to business arsehole then!

“You need to sit down love we have a lot to go over. Do you have any clothes?”

huh what I get kidnapped and he expects me to have a suitcase with me!

“Obviously not” I said rolling my eyes at him. Bloody i***t! Two can play this game Mr Catman.

“Just checking as I’ve ordered some for the house when we get there, size 8 good?” he said all business.

“Yes that’s fine and thank you” Feeling like a brat now. I went and sat on the bed my hands in my lap and looked up ready to hear what it was.

“Your welcome. Kasy do you know who your birth mother was? Know anything about witches? Your adoptive parents tell you anything?”

Wow ok that was alot of questions but all easily answered.

“No to all" I folded my arms to keep the chill that I suddenly felt.

“OK Kasy I’m going to start from the top, or beginning how does that sound? We have some time before we get to the safe house and you need to know who and what you are.”

He spoke as he was moving to the walk in closet and coming out in an over sized tee and basket ball shorts. Hmmmm he looked good in them.

For goodness sake Kasy concentration would be really good right now!

He came and sat down at the head of the bed resting against the pillows and patted the space beside him. I budged up so I was next to him, the pillows were so fluffy I sank into them.

Coop then told me about the creation of witches how you could be from 5 original families. But obviously with crossing and human interaction the lines of the witches became less. More likely to produce a human child than a witch. Or on the other hand to the families who had kept as best they could to witch families a child of 2 or 3 powers of the Houses of the original families.

OK I got it so far, what I didn’t get Is how it meant anything to me and then he hit me with it.

“So of the 5 houses earth, air, fire, water and spirit you are the last descendant of the spirit original family.” He sat patiently waiting for me to process this. Also he seemed to be willing to answer any questions I may have, if he knew them. I don’t think he’s a witch, well maybe he is! Earlier today I was just a diver who saved coral reef. That blew my mind alone!

I think I sat there processing all he had said for ages it felt like that anyway. Going through all the times I’d made things happen and my adoptive Parents never told me off. This was why, this is it. I’m a witch?

“You’re real surname is Ravenswood” he said softly.
