chapter 23- head council meeting 1

Sienna p.o.v.

Sat in the meeting room I wont lie I was nervous. However I new I had this especially with me having Rachel and sarah by my side.

As soon as the head council told me he wanted to talk about my mother I could feel as my whole body tensed up. I'm not really sure why seeming as I knew that this meeting would mainly be talked about my mother.

"Alright." I said nodding.

"As you know the crimes your mother made and unforgivable. As you also know her crimes are punishable to death. I know this might be a little hard for you to talk about and I completely understand that but we have to talk about this as well as what we believe is best for your coven." The head council announced making me stiffen at the mention of what will happen to my coven.

A big frown appeared on my face and I furrowed my eyebrows, not understanding what they mean.

"I'm sorry to interrupt head council but may I ask what you mean about my coven?" I asked narrowing myneyes a little.

The head council nodded before clearing her throat.

"We will get to that bit in a moment. We would just like to explain some things about your mother first." Head council said firmly.

I gritted my teeth in annoyance but sighed and nodded my head.

"As I was saying before you know your mothers crimes are punishable by death. We have decided on no mercy towards her and there will be no court to see if all the other head covens believe she should receive a different punishment other then death. Which sometimes when people do crimes we do have a court room and we see what other head covens believe should happen just for in case everyone believes that there crimes was with in reason. However every single one of us believe your mother was nothing but a cold hearted bit-.. she started but cleared her throat.

"She was cruel and cold hearted. We believe that her crimes have should have no possibility of her even slightly getting away with it. Therefore we have moved her punishment to tomorrow where the werewolves will also be allowed to come and see that she gets the right punishment. I understand this will be hard for you but we have to let you know this." The council announced.

I wont lie I was a little suprised that it will be moved to tomorrow but I'm not suprised at all that there will be no court to see if she can get a lighter punishment. She deserved this. Katrina and sarah father did not deserve this at all. My mother did.

"I will not sit here and act as though it does not hurt even the tiniest bit if me about my mother. After all she is my mother. However she also deserves this and I will not be sitting her to try and defend her if that's what you thought or expected. I knew what I was getting into and I knew my mother would be punished to death once you find out. I knew helping the werewolves and sarah would cause my mother to get the punishment she needed and deserved. I knew she would not get away with it. I helped out for that reason because mother or not she should not get away with it.I agree my mother is a cold hearted bitch." I spoke confidently.

All the head councils looked suprised to be honest. They looked as though they did not expect this answer.

"I can not lie that we are suprised about your answer. However my question is why are you so calm about not only your mother but head covens punishment to death." Head council asked with barred eyes.

I know he is thinking about loyalty. However that is not something he should be asking me. He should be asking that my mother. Clearly she has no morals and no idea what loyalty is.

"This mother of mine you say is my mother was never a mother to me. I tried everything to get the love from her that I seen everyone else is my coven get from there mothers but I got nothing. She was always cold towards me and she hated that sarah was part human. She made me bully sarah and even though I knew it was wrong it's the only thing I got a praise for. That was until I realised it was wrong and found out a lot more things that truly disgusted me. That's when I knew I could not longer try and get on her good side. She had no good side. That was Also when I figured out that I was also part human." I spoke coldly.

"As for her being my head coven as well as my mother she was nothing a great leader should be. She did nothing for this coven apart from try and exclude them from other covens and cause wars. She had teared this coven down. She has hurt many people in this coven emotionally and physically by even killing one off them that we know off as well as her human husband. She has made it to where my whole coven sits there some barely scraping by while others are not scraping by at all. Rachel who is sat over there was having the most money paid to her and even she was just barely scraping by. The rest are barely getting 600 dollars a month. So tell me why I should be on her side? When she has done nothing but cause misery to not only mine but everyone else life around them." I spoke angrily.

I could see that every single person was shocked including Sarah. The only one not shocked was rachel as she already knew this.

"Now onto the thing I really wanted to talk about is what you meant by my coven and what is going to happen?" I asked coldly.

The reason I am asking coldly is because my back is rising up. I know I didn't think I wanted to take over this coven before but I do now. This is my coven and I will do everything in my power to help them out.

I heard as he cleared his throat.

"Well we are not sure about you taking over." He said putting it bluntly.

I  narrowed my eyes at him. I do not care at this point if I am disrespecting the head council. This is my coven and I will be the one to take over.

"I will be taking over this coven. This is my coven and I will be mending all the mistakes and the horrible things that my so called mother has made. I was not sure at first about taking over but once I went through everything with this coven I realised this is my coven. This is my fresh start and this is where I make my bad things in life start good. " I said this time more softly towards the end.

"Head council if you do not mind I would like to say something." Rachel said softly.

The head council looked at her and nodded his head.

"Sienna has been through a lot if bad stuff in her life. Before she arrived here after we heard about what happened to her mother. Well actually we didn't really know anything apart from the rumour she is being punished to death and sienna was taking over. However you know how i felt when I found out sienna was taking over? I was terrified. I will not lie i was really scared. I thought I was going to loose my job. I thought she would treat me worse then her mother did and it scared me. I have to pay $100 for my moms medicine every week. I worried that I will loose this job and will no longer be able to provide not only medicine for my mother but also food for my mother and my little sister. Or the rent.

That was until I met sienna and she was so much more different then I thought. She is caring but will put us in our place. Sienna mother would do nothing but shout at you for the slightest thing or punish you. She lacked the care in our coven. I know sienna will be the best coven leader for us because she cares a lot. She doesn't just want to Help us and want us to be on her side so she can take over. She is already making changes before example everyone money is going up so we can actually live. She is helping the school with there funds. She is doing more then what sienna mother has ever done. I'm begging you to let sienna take over. I do not want another leader because we do not know what she will be like." Rachel spoke with tears in her eyes making my eyes water as well. That really meant a lot to me.

I blinked the tears away but it didnt work as some dropped. I smiled softly at Rachel. A grateful smile and a smile saying thank you so much.

However what sarah said next definitely did not stop the tears from flowing.
