156 Sharing a secret

Henry was stunned. He was about to climb the tree to keep on watch at Anne’s tent while hiding from the lady huntsman that kept coming to see him coincidentally. He knows that Sabina was a piece of bad news as soon as he rejected her advance after they kissed one year ago. Instead of successfully hiding from the young woman, he heard Anne confronting someone inside the tent.

“What are you doing here? Can’t you just leave me alone?!” Anne was desperately trying to repel the other person, Henry tried to eavesdrop for a moment until he figured if Anne was in some kind of danger.

“Now… now… my child, why do you need to be so alerted when you look at me?” The other voice finally spoke, the hair on the back of Henry’s neck raised. He recognized the voice, the witch of the mountain.

“I need to, you… you bring suffering to these people. I will never forgive you for what you have done to them.” Anne was furious and Henry heard all of it from the outside of the tent.

A sound of laughter came from the witch of the mountain. “But child, I do everything for you. I even gifted you…”

Anne, screaming at the witch of the mountain, seems she doesn’t want to know whatever she was going to say. “Enough! I don’t want to get involved with you, just go away from me, you’ve already been giving me so much suffering… Just…”

Henry heard enough when the next thing he heard was Anne sniffles, he open the tent, making Anne flustered. “Anne! Are you alright?!”

“He… Henry! What are you doing here?!” Said Anne nervously at him. 𝗳𝗿𝐞ℯ𝙬𝗲𝗯n𝗼νel.𝒄𝑜𝘮

He ignored her for a moment and check on every corner of the tent, strangely there was nothing inside the tent. When he finally looks at Anne, she was actually wearing a nightgown in front of Henry. The soft color of beige is very complimenting Anne and her skin tone, but the most surprising about all of it was how sexy she is. 𝒇𝘳𝐞𝚎𝓌𝑒𝑏𝒏𝑜𝙫ℯl.c𝚘𝒎

“Err… I… I am sorry, I must have mistaken the voice.” Henry said to Anne. His eyes keep staring at her, or safe to say, her body.

Anne glared at him while trying so hard to cover her body from his view. “Alright, then, what are you doing still standing there? Don’t you see I was in the middle of resting here? And you were supposed to wear a mask!”

Flustered by her rage, Henry turned on his back, “I… I am sorry, I never knew that…”

“Ugh, knew about what?”

Henry took a glance towards her, this time just to make sure he saw her expression. “I never knew that I would hear the voice of the witch of the mountain inside of this tent.” He was distraught when Anne’s expression was full of fear.

“What do you mean, there was the witch of the mountain here? That is absurd!” Said Anne, trying to deny Henry’s claim, although her face says otherwise.

Sensing that Anne would never reveal the truth to him, Henry give up and excused himself from her tent. Before he was leaving the tent, Henry spoke to her one more time, “Anne, I was so rude towards you after we had met again after two years. I am sorry about everything. I… I will try to be kinder.” Unexpectedly, giggles come from her direction. Henry just wondered because he couldn’t look directly at her. “Did you just laugh?”

“Yes, I was so amused by your heartfelt apology.” Said Anne while she stop the ridiculous giggling, “Thank you, Henry, I would love that. Let’s be friends, alright?” Asked Anne to Henry.

“Friend? Hmph…” He left the tent without giving her a proper answer.

After Henry left the tent, Anne looked around and gave a sigh of relief. The witch of the mountain was, in fact, coming here and had a conversation with Anne. It seems she always followed her from time to time. The only one who knew about this was Brom. Both of them were trading information regarding the witch of the mountain. She remembered the last time they talked; they were inside her hut. He was trembling in fear as he stared at the moon from the window.

“She came today, in my dream, when I saw her… That face.”

Anne gave him a meylatee tea. To calm his nerves, it always works wonders for Brom. “Did she yell again? Or maybe grab your hand and hit you like the last time?”

Brom shakes his head, “No, this time she… She was smiling, her smile however, gave me chills, I woke up screaming, My mother even came to my room.” Brom tells her his dream while sipping on the tea, his eyes then go to Anne, “Was she come to you, again?”

Anne nodded her head, biting her nails profusely while reminiscing about the witch of the mountain visited recently, “Yes, she came here and talked gibberish like always, it makes me so afraid and angry at her, I don’t know what she wants.”

“At this stage, I’m afraid both of us don’t know what she wants from us.” Said Brom with a smirk on his face.

Anne let out a sigh. She called for Chikara, her familiar who resided in her shadow.

‘Yes, master.’ Said a pair of eyes that appear from her shadow.

“Goes to Brom, and informed him that I was having another encounter with the witch of the mountain. I want him to record this on our share book log.” She commanded her familiar while thinking about the next sentences, “Also, tell him, that he needs to be careful, both of us are connected to her, every time she came to visiting, he will definitely dream about that cruel witch soon.”

‘As you wish, master.’

Chikara goes outside the tent in form of a large shadow, the demon cat failed to sense Henry from behind the tree, and he turns his face to the tent, knowing full well that Anne and Brom were keeping a secret about the witch of the mountain.
