Prelude

Chapter 19 (From Book 1)

Pamela picked up Imani from the airport and they were now headed to the Lake’s house. She called Madasin and got directions, and they arrived there around a quarter past five o’clock.

Imani got out of the car first as she gathered the only bag that she brought with her on the plane and a satchel of items that she purchased from an herb store in Atlanta that Imani had Googled the directions to.

Pamela and she walked to the front door of the house and ring the doorbell.

The Lakes were gathered in the living area of the house awaiting their arrival. They all got up to greet their guest at the door and Dakota followed.

Elizabeth decided not to go back to her home and was upstairs resting in the spare bedroom.

Nathaniel opened the door to see Pamela standing facing the door and the lady that had to be Imani looking the opposite way.

Hi Pamela, I’m glad you made your way out here without getting lost. Most people have a hard time finding our house if they have never been out here before. Nathaniel was talking to Pamela but was more intrigued for Imani to turn around to face him.

I didn’t have a clue where I was going. I just put the address that Madasin gave me into the navigational thingy and it guided me here, Pamela chuckled, a nervous laughter as she waited for Imani to turn around and greet Nathaniel.

Please come in. Nathaniel moved back from the entrance to allow them in.

Pamela could then see Alexandria and Madasin standing in the foyer also waiting to see Imani.

Imani was still looking out into the distance.

Pamela cleared her throat, Imani, are you ready?

Imani bowed her head to whatever it was she was looking at, and then turned around to greet the Lakes, Hi, I am Imani Lou Val. She said, with her deep Louisianan accent.

The Lakes were instantly astounded by her beauty. She wore no makeup on her face, but she didn’t need to. Her chocolate complexion was smooth as silk and flawless. Her reddish-brown locks hung to her bottom. Her black eyes were very intense and could immediately put you under a spell. She wore a long brown dress with a gold belt wrapped around her waist; an ivy shawl covered her arms, and brown sandals on her feet. She wore no earrings, only gold cuff bracelets on her arms.

You have such beautiful scenery out here. I was taking a minute to take it in. I always meditate for a brief moment to God before I enter a strange dwelling. Please forgive me if I appeared to be insolent to you.

No not at all. Please do come in and have a seat in our living area. Alexandria took Imani by the hand to lead the way, and she immediately felt a jolt of electricity from her touch.

Oh my, Alexandria felt lightheaded for a second as the current went through her body.

I am sorry. I don’t normally touch hands much and you can see why. Are you okay, Mrs. Lake? Imani offered a sincere concern.

Yes, I am. I think, Alexandria said, trying to hold her balance.

I should’ve warned you about that too, Pamela added.

Are you sure you are okay? Imani asked deeply concerned but didn’t touch her again.

I’m fine really. Let’s just go in the living room and sit down.

Alexandria was still feeling a little tingly.

They all sat on the beautiful Victorian furniture as they prepared to get more acquainted.

Would you care for anything to eat or drink Ms. Lou Val and Mrs. Bailey? Madasin asked, nervously.

I am fine, thank you, Imani replied.

I am too, Pamela replied, and smiled.

Imani removed her bags from her shoulders, stood up and began to walk around the room. She seemed to be admiring all of the art work and artifacts that was in that space of the Lake’s home.

They all watched her in silence; nobody knowing what to say or do next.

Imani could sense the nervousness in the air and walked to the middle of the room.

Pamela was telling me in more detail in the car on the drive here about what has been going on with our dear Madasin. I have never dealt with this kind of curse before in my practices. However, I am sure that I will be able to get to the root of the problem. You see, all spells have an origin, and in order to break a spell one must find why it exists. In order for me to get a better understanding of what type of spell we are dealing with, I will need everybody’s full cooperation.

We give our full cooperation to you Ms. Lou Val, Nathaniel was the first to consent.

Absolutely, Alexandria added.

Good, let us begin. Shall we? Imani nodded her head and got her bag off the couch where she sat it down. Do you have a round table that we can sit at?

Yes, in the kitchen. Please come this way. Alexandria began walking out of the living area with Imani behind her and everyone else formed a line after them.

They all entered the kitchen waiting on Imani’s instructions on what to do next.

Imani put her bags down on the counter and started taking a few items out of them. She walked over to the round table pulled out a chair and sat down. She put the items on the table. The items were a substance that looked like salt, some herbs of some sort, and an ashtray. She then placed the herbs in the ashtray, and with the touch of her fingertip she lit them. She then placed the ashtray in the middle of the table.

Mr. Lake I request that you sit to the left of me. Mrs. Lake please sit here to my right, and my dear Madasin please sit in front of me.

The Lakes did as they were told.

Pamela, I need you to take this salt and spread it in front of both door seals. Start with this back door here, and then walk backwards and do the kitchen entrance with you standing on the outside of the door. I only wish to have the Lakes inside the kitchen with me at this time.

Pamela quickly did as she was told and stood on the outside of the kitchen entrance in the hall.

Dakota, your presence is also needed in the hall at this time. Thank you, Imani said, as she looked at the Lakes.

Dakota couldn’t believe that she could see her.

The Lakes were also astonished and amazed.

What I am going to do will not hurt any of you. This is just a visualization spell. It will allow me to see into your hearts and minds. It will also help me to find the origin of the spell that is placed upon our dear Madasin. Anybody within the boundaries of the salt, I will be able to read. Are there any questions before I begin, Imani looked at the Lakes before moving on.

All three shook their heads no.

Great, we can now begin. At this time, I wish for all minds to be clear at this table. I will now take your hand Mrs. Lake and yours Mr. Lake. I will then have you both to take our dear Madasin’s hand. You will feel a jolt as Mrs. Lake felt earlier, but it will only last a short while as I enter your mind and heart. Once all of our hands are connected, I need you all to close your eyes. Okay? Imani offered a warm smile.

All three nodded in unison.

Superb, if all minds are clear let’s begin.

Imani took Nathaniel’s hand and he jumped from her touch. She then took Alexandria’s hand and once again she felt the sensation of electricity surge her body. Then they both took Madasin’s hand, and she was able to feel the current from both her parents. Their eyes closed automatically as they could no longer feel the weight of their eyelids.

Imani began chanting three words repetitively.

Incumbus, diesoul, albri. Incumbus, diesoul, albri. Incumbus, diesoul, albri. Incumbus, diesoul, albri.

Imani continued to chant, as her eyes rolled into the back of her head. She began to look into the mind of Nathaniel and Alexandria. She could see when they first met, and their happiness to be together. Imani suddenly could see another woman that was extremely upset. This woman was weeping like a child as she held a pregnancy test that had a negative result. This other woman had the same skin complexion as her own. Her hair was black and neatly cut into a short Afro style. She could see the lady walking to the house of someone weeping as she held her stomach. There was a dark presence that opened the door for the lady. She fell into the evil being’s arms and continued to weep as a child. The evil being then promised to take the pain away from the lady as they walked into the house and closed the door. The evil being shielded her identity from Imani.

Imani stopped chanting and opened her eyes. She dropped the Lake’s hands and they too opened their eyes. Imani got up and with her hand she magically removed the salt barriers from the door seals and allowed Pamela and Dakota to come back inside the kitchen.

She blew the fire from the herbs and sat back down at the table.

The Lakes were still regaining their composure from the spell.

I was able to see something, but I am not quite sure what it was that I saw, Imani said, with a sober voice.

Ms. Lou Val, if you tell us what it was you saw, maybe we can figure it out, Nathaniel replied.

You will have too because only you two would know who the lady is that I saw in your minds. My dear Madasin’s heart is pure and has no evil, but you two, on the other hand, may have some skeleton bones in your closet, Imani’s eyes grew narrow as she looked at the Lakes.

With all due respect, what woman do you speak of? Nathaniel questioned Imani.

She is of the same complexion as me; her hair was black and cut short in a natural Afro style at that period in time. She seemed to be extremely upset while holding a pregnancy test. Tell me now, who is the lady that I speak of? Imani asked.

Neither Nathaniel nor Alexandria spoke up to answer Imani.

I told you in order for me to help I will need full cooperation from all of you! Imani was becoming very upset with the Lakes.

Daddy, who is this woman that Ms. Imani is seeing?

"Do you want my help for dear Madasin or not? Imani firmly asked.

Alexandria dropped her head.

Nathaniel looked at his beautiful daughter before speaking.

Yes, I need your help, Nathaniel started to cry.

Very well, then tell me and dear Madasin who is this lady in my vision at this moment! Imani’s eyes were fixated on Nathaniel.

Alexandria began to weep as she kept her head bowed so low that her forehead almost reached the tabletop.

I love you Madasin, and I would never do anything to hurt you. I know who she speaks of all too well, Nathaniel wiped the tear that ran down his cheek with the back of his hands.

Who is it, Daddy? Madasin looked at her mother who still had her head bowed in the laps of her shoulders. She was now crying uncontrollably.

Pamela stood behind Alexandria and rubbed her shoulders for comfort.

Nathaniel cleared his voice.

Imani looked at him and motioned with her hand for him to go on.

The lady you see in your vision is… Henrietta Lake, Nathaniel cried as he spoke her name.

Who is that? I never heard of her before, Madasin replied, looking confused.

Dakota walked over and stood behind Madasin’s chair.

What’s going on? Why are the both of you crying at the mention of this lady? Who is she to you? Madasin demanded.

You don’t know her, Madasin. You weren’t even born yet to know her, Nathaniel said, through his tears. She is no importance to you.

Just tell me so I can know! Madasin looked over at her mother but she still kept her head down.

Imani got up from the table and began to pack her items back into her bags. Pamela, take me away from this place. They do not seek the truth.

NO, please don’t leave! We need your help! Madasin pleaded.

It is not you my dear Madasin that is hiding secrets. It is your parents! Imani continued, "They are harboring the truth from you, and until they are ready
