HAYLEY GILBERT, She is the most powerful witch ever lived, a god on Earth, it was suppose to remain so until she met the surgeon who she is drawn to, a witch hunter, the last of his kind with a mission to destroy the witch race. But when their world both collide, not even the forces of the universe can stop their love.
Hayley Gilbert, a 21years old witch from
the moonlight circle. The coven consists of only female witches with different powers. Some are gifted with bewitching, some the power to exorcise, some the power of healing but for Hayley, she was gifted with all of these gift and is said to be the most powerful witch of her time.
She was Born from a line of very powerful ancestral witches.
During the 18th century, a very dark magic was performed in the moonlight circle with the blood of five virgins which broke the link to the ancestors cause the ancestors are where they draw their strength directly from and without the help of the ancestors, a coven is weak and can be attacked by the witch hunters at any time. After the link was broken, the moonlight circle lived in fear for a long time, they were preyed upon and slaughtered like nothing until they finally received a prophecy about a miracle child who is yet to be born, and the moonlight circle began to search for the witch pregnant with the miracle child that will save their race. They found the witch whom belong to the coven of twelve sister's and waited for when Maria will be due to give birth, through a dark magic, they were able to kidnap Maria from her coven cause it was only through dark magic that they could defeat the twelve sisters. Through the birth of this baby the link between the ancestors were restored, Maria was killed by the leader of the moonlight circle and the only way the link would remain was if the child never fell in love. She was to be their redemption, she was going to untouchable by any power, she was born to be a god on Earth as long as she never falls in love with a man. After Hayley was born, the link to the ancestral spirit was restored, the coven made sure Hayley got everything she ever needed, Hayley grew into a very powerful witch who went to school, associated with the outside world but concealed her true identity from the outside world until she met the surgeon who turned her life apart. She was not meant to fall in love especially not with a human, but sooner it was bound to happen and above all with a man born of the blood of a witch hunter.
That was an impossible love that could never happen but they were bound to make it happen. History would repeat itself as a war between the witch hunters and the witches of the moonlight circle started, the witches sort out to seek help from other coven but then more secrets are unveiled and the dark powers of Hayley which should never be released are bound to arise.
CHAPTER ONE
HOW IT ALL STARTED
Hayley and Tiana are both in a car returning from a fashion event, Hayley is driving but can't stop talking about today's event. They both graduated from the same fashion school after which they decided to start up a small fashion business they were actually making good clothes, and the store seems to be doing well. These was the first time they were invited to a fashion event and either of them couldn't hide their excitement as they kept talking non-stop about how good they taught the event was.
Tiana brings out her phone from her black purse sitting on her laps, she began to scroll through the pictures she took at the event, they were pictures of modeling wearing the best designs made by popular designers, showing them to the excited Hayley, Hayley drift her eyes away from the road and suddenly they were fixed on the phone and she failed to notice that she was swerving into the wrong lane, Hayley only realized it when the car coming in front kept horning. Looking at the road, she became confuse and frantically drag the steering into the other side of the road.
" Hayley watch out!!"
Tiana warned as she held on to her seatbelt tie trying to alert Hayley who was struggling with the wheel about the impending danger ahead but before Hayley could take any further action, their car clashed right in front of the pole ahead.
As the car came head to head with the pole, Hayley could feel the force it took for the car to finally stop. Only then did she realize she was bleeding. But it didn't matter to her at that point, she was more concern about Tiana who seems to be unconscious right now.
" Tiana! Tiana!! Tiana!!!"
She kept shouting until Tiana slowly opens her eyes, she seems weak, the shattered glass were all over her body, there were traces of blood but it didn't seems to belong to her.
" Tiana are you hurt?!"
A concern Hayley questioned, Tiana stares at her and is shock to see so much blood dripping from Hayley's head. Turns out she had sustained a head injury but failed to even notice.
" Hayley!! Your head, you are bleeding"
Tiana announced and within a few seconds, Hayley lost consciousness.
Tiana quickly pick up her phone lying beside her in the car and quickly dialed 911. Confuse Tiana didn't really know what else to do, but she could see Hayley loosing so much blood, she became more scared afraid of what might happen.
After several hours of waiting, an ambulance finally arrived and Tiana followed them to the hospital.
While Hayley was getting treated, Tiana sat at the waiting area, rubbing both palms together as tears welled up in her eyes. She felt like it was her fault and if she didn't show those pictures to her, Hayley would be focus on the road and won't be in this predicament and here she was with no injury at all. As a doctor walked towards her accompanied by a nurse, Tiana quickly stood up, wiping away those tears in her eyes.
" Doctor how is she"
Trying not to panic, she questioned.
" I would like to speak to her guardian"
The doctor announced.
" Doctor, am her room mate, I brought her here, you can talk to me"
" Your friend developed a serious brain injury during the accident, we were able to operate on her, but right now, we can only hope for the best"
" What do you mean 'hope for the best'?"
Her jaw dropped, she was trying to process the meaning of what he just said, but nothing seems to be processing in her brain right at the moment.
" Well after the Surgery, she fell into coma and right now, we can only watch and hope there is improvement."
" You are saying Hayley is in coma right now? No! It not possible, it was just a minor accident"
Tiana welled uncontrollable.
" Am sorry miss!"
That was all he heard to say. There was sympathy in his eyes, he gave her arms a squeeze and walked away.

After assembling them in order around unconscious Hayley, she sat on the floor both her legs crossed as she close her eyes. She began to enchant the spell written in her book of shadows.
" ut lytel spere, gif her innie sie
It lytel spere, gif her innie sy
It lytel spere, gif her innie sy"
She kept enchanting and then suddenly there is a large wind, her eyes became black, her neck backward and she was enchanting more loud, the atmosphere became intense. A force began to lift Hayley away from the bed, the more Alex enchanted, the higher Hayley was going up until Alex suddenly stop as Hayley fell to the ground with full force and she slowly opened her eyes.
" Alex?"
" Welcome back, you owe me a drink?"
" What happened?"

" You were in an accident with your room mate, help me clean up before she comes back unless you have an explanation for these"
