“That.. the staff is not for sale, you can go and look here. We have many options for slave.” said the man with a struggle.
He was surprised that such a weak woman was this strong.
“You have only two choices. Either you will take me there or I will turn you into a toad!” she threatened when the man blinked and then laughed hard as if he had heard a joke.
“Tsk! Do you think i am a kid that you will threaten me and i would..” he saw the other girl shaking her head and then sighed in regret and frowned but before he could ask anything to her, he saw Hazel snapping her fingers and his body shrinking
He reached to her feet and suddenly she looked like an evil giant with that smirk on her face. He shouted but the only sound of “croaking” echoed
He tried to run to her but only felt his body jumping and falling on the ground, only then did.. He croaked and croaked but no one paid any other attention to him.

A woman with silver hair and silver eyes, with fair and young skin as if the time had no effect on her was standing in front of them.
“You do not need to make other toads to meet me, it is rude, you know!” she stated a calm tone as she stared back at the two stunned girls. “Hazel had always been a rude child but Anne, I expected better from you.” she chided her elder daughter with a stern look in her eyes.
“So it is really you?” The question was absurd and her face showed that with a look of disdain.
Like a mother who had been patiently waiting for her kids at home, she did not have any shock to see both of them or any emotion after seeing them after such a long time. She behaved as if they had never been separated.
“I can see that you have forgotten your manners completely. That is why I have asked you to not be in the company of Bella for long.” she sighed as she snapped her fingers and the toad turned into a guard again.
“Can you ever stop being a nuisance, Bella? I have work to do.” making sure that everything was in order, she turned to leave when hazel blocked her way.
“Where do you think you are going? Huh! Do you not have anything else to say to me after meeting me for such a long time?” Hazel asked, her voice was cold and indifferent but her eyes trembled when she continued to stare at her mother who raised a brow in confusion.
With a dark frown, she stared at Hazel and then at Anne, who looked relieved that the old witch was leaving.
“You always wanted me to leave you alone. What should I say to you then? That I am disappointed in you?” she asked with a frown, “you already knew that you both are a disappointment for me to the point where your lover tried to kill me.”
She stated as she walked away but Hazel was not ready to let go.
“How are you alive then?” Her words halted the woman who seemed to be in rage with her face turned redder and her chest heaving up and down.
“What kind of question is that? Do you want me to die that desperately huh?” she snarled with anger, “you are such a vicious woman who never let go of even her mother. Because of you I have to live in hiding and now you are here to take my peace too.“ Just as the words entered, she pushed Hazel away with full force whose back hit one of the cells.
The cells were made with a strong spell to give electric shock to any person who tried to touch it so her back started to burn.

But she did not fall. Just when she was a few inches away, she stopped falling and stilled in the air as if invisible hands were holding her in their arms.
Her eyes glowed with such coldness. She waved her hands again and strong chains started to grow around hazel to bind her but it did not take her any force to break them all.
“Why are you here? Are you helping humans in kidnapping witches?” asked Anne, trying to hold Hazel and distracting her mother who laughed as she pressed her hands tighter to increase the pressure but no matter how many chains she formed, Hazel was able to break them easily and walked towards her mother.
“They are too weak to fall into their trap. I only make protection spells and a few amulets with protection spells like always.” she said in a nonchalant tone when she looked back at Anne.
“A lady whose husband had died and her kids had left her alone to die! What options did she have? She had to do everything she could do to survive.” her tone was full of accusation as she blamed Anne for her condition,
“If you think I would give up then you are wrong and these small tricks will not work on me.” Just as the words left her mouth, a barrier was formed around Hazel who could not move away and felt that air was getting scarce around her.
“I am giving you the last chance to leave and let me live the way I want or else the result would be a war!”
“Crack!” just as the words left her mouth with a smirk on her face, the barrier was broken and Hazel came out of it and stood in front of her,
“I am not that weak as you remembered me, mother!”
