The Spell Caster's Maria
Chapter 1

If you would have told me that I would marry one of the most powerful spell caster I would have told you that you were grazy.
But you're not. I am marrying a spell caster. For my brother's sake.
You see I am the only non-spell caster in my family.
For my brother to join the Black Moonsters clan I have to marry the future spell caster leader.
But I am ahead of myself here.
I was born on the day of the winter solstice. I think it was on the full moon.

My name is Maria Silveria and this is my story.

"Wake up darling, your brother would be here soon." My mother woke me from my sleep. "Just five more minutes." I said but my mother wouldn't here of it.
"Maria. You know this is important for your brother."
"Yeah, yeah I know. Black Moonster means the world to him just to get in."
I sat on the bed for a moment then looked at the window.
The sun was shining.
I haven't seen my brother since he left for his education, I was only ten at that time and now nine years later his coming home.
I got ready for his arrival .
Mom made us breakfast. I ate fast, he'll be here any minute now. I wanted to jump up and down.
There was a knock on the door. My heart rased with excitement. "John! You're early." I heard our mother said.
I joined her at the front door. "Hey John." I greeted him with a hug.
"By the goddess you look amazing. All grown up." He hugged me back.
It was good to see him in all those years he was gone.
"I have braught you something from the city." He handed me a small box from his back pack and handed it to me.
"Thank you." I looked what was inside.
It was beautiful necklace with a red ruby at the center.
"Something to wear on your wedding day."
"O yeah thank you." Was all I could say and hugged him again.
"You must be hungry. Come. I had just now made some breakfast." John followed our mother to the kitchen. I looked at the photo of our father.
He has been part of this clan since birth. I soon joined them in the kitchen.
"You must be nerves for tonight?"
"Tonight?" I stood by the door of the kitchen.
"Yes tonight. The head of the Black Moonster and his family would be coming tonight to meet with your brother to descuss terms."
"You mean terms regarding me." I wasn't tended as a question.
Since our father's death John became the head of our family. My stomach turned by the thought of meeting the the future head of the Black Moonster.
"Maria make coffee for us that your brother can settle in." Mom ordered me. ...
