Chapter 1464: Chapter 1564

My previous encounters with the rift had left me with a vivid recollection of its perimeter.

“You’ve grasped it correctly,” Shirley conceded, her smirk broadening.

“But beyond being a the cusp of the two worlds, it also marks the boundary between witches and vampires.

”

“Vampires?”

The word jolted through me.

Ivy reminded, “Darling, cast your mind back.

Andrew has spoken of vampire attacks prior to our

memories being veiled.

The recollection cast a shadow over my spirits.

Though my memories were fractured, the tales of vampires, as recounted by Andrew, painted them as a threat not to be taken lightly.

Shirley’s smile widened, her satisfaction clear as she advanced with a taunting glee.

“Here’s something you might not know.

Vampires roam these parts, preying on lost witches.

Should you fall by my hand, they’ll soon come for what’s left.

How can anyone prove I was involved?”

Ivy’s voice pierced the tension.

“She’s a nightmare!”

Fear wasn’t an ally, and I knew it.

Convincing Shirley was crucial.

Suppressing my panic, I retorted, “Even without proof, Andrew will piece it together.

He’s not one to forgive or forget, especially when it comes to you.

”

Shirley’s demeanor hardened, her words icy.

“Don’t fool yourself, Debra.

Andrew’s shield won’t extend to fend off my wrath.

And without you, nothing stands between us.

”

Her gaze was predatory, unwavering.

With cold authority, she ordered her followers, “End it now.

”

They surged forward, their magic crackling with intent.

“Honey, watch out!” Ivy’s warning rang out.

Instincts took over.

I morphed into a wolf, my reflexes just quick enough to evade their attacks.

As I was reeling, another onslaught commenced.

The witches were relentless.

Amidst the chaos, Ivy tried to evade, but they were swift, their numbers overwhelming.

“Ouch!”

A cry of pain marked Ivy’s fall, the ground staining with the evidence of the encounter.

Shirley’s laughter filled the air, rich with malice.

“That’s what you get!”

As she charged forward, fury contorted her features.

“Damned bitch, go to hell!”
