Rise of the Witch

Mark was the handsome, arrogant, unspoiled little rich kid, who grew up getting everything he wanted, and it came easy -until Jeanie arrived.

Jeanie, the beautiful redhead whose emerald-green eyes held secrets, showed intelligence, compassion, and maybe just a hint of danger, sparkled with magic that entranced all who could see it.
But Mark was used to having everything he wanted, so the effects of her hypnotic beauty would not last long. Or so he thought. The more aggressively he pursued her, the cooler her response.
Hard to get, try impossible?

But Jeanie was not just something to be won like a prize or conquered by a sexual obsession. If anything, those very characteristics would have just the opposite effect on her instead of drawing her closer.

Then caught off-guard in the heat of passion, Jeanie let her guard down for just a moment and unintentionally revealed herself in a way that left her vulnerable. Bad mistake for a woman who thought she was immune to the love of a man she knew would exploit her every weakness.
But she could forgive him even that. It wasn’t his fault. He was raised to be the epitome of “corporationalism” and to conquer by any means necessary. In the modern world, it was money -because money was power!
What Mark didn’t know was that there were other parties equally interested in Jeanie, but for their own reasons, just as selfish but not as benign.
Jeanie was named after the word Genealogy.
And this was a keyword that designated her within her Bloodlines.
Jeanie was chosen because of her heritage.
And the membership of this party was exclusive.
There was a reason why Jeanie was so valuable to the Government.
Her own parents worked for them. But even they were expendable if Jeanie herself could be acquired instead.
However, Jeanie was not a girl who would allow her life to be defined by something as arbitrary as a bloodline, nor would she permit herself to be used as an instrument of evil by a secret faction, no matter what they promised; no-matter what they threatened.
If Jeanie, would not come willingly, they would take her by force and initiate her into their circle with a hellish ritual that would take control of her mind, body, and soul. The soul being the most valuable commodity.
So it was her soul they wanted most. It was not just an individual’s identity; but also a source of pure energy.
And now that energy could be trapped and manipulated, with a nightmarish process provided by an alien race, entitled “sheering,” which was a type of soul scalping.
Once the soul was trapped in the material world and stored in a device apart from its body, this would make Jeanie a slave, not only in the physical world but on the spiritual plane as well -which was eternal.
Could Mark’s substantial wealth, power, and his penchant for brilliant alternatives in hopeless situations aid in saving Jeanie? Or would Jeanie’s powers in the supernatural be strong enough to protect her, and the ones she loved, from all those who threatened to destroy her?
