Chapter 288: Are You Seducing Me?
DACE
~
Emma said nothing... She was completely silent before me and didn’t meet my eyes. Everything she told me still came as an awe to me. Grayson was a warlock? And they both share the same dream? It was hard to ponder on it. He was half supernatural just like Emma, was that why she was always curious about him? Why she always felt unease by him? But that first time was solely because he was a Venator.
That should be the center of my thoughts but it wasn’t, what got my thoughts jamming was the fact that she was gonna use magic again and I didn’t like that at all. It made my insides claw and my beast on edge.
"I had a thought... Grayson is a warlock so I won’t do the spell alone, it’s just like a shared spell, two bodies as one" she finally said breaking the hot silence between us.
We kept our eyes on each other in a prolonged state but she was quick to look away feeling unease by my ardent stare. Even though what she said was to my understanding, it still did not sit well with me nor calm me down. One thing I learned while growing up in this town full of witches and warlocks was that every spell comes with a price, that was why they mostly trained their physical bodies, and most of their warlocks were built and the witches were physically strong.
But Emma wasn’t any of that, she’s my petite baby girl who knew nothing about the supernatural world until months ago, it must have been a hell of a ride for her because in just six months her life made a drastic change beyond what she could control, she was pull in without her choice or maybe it was her choice to be pulled in, I still haven’t figured that out yet but I knew deep down that is was meant to happen.
Mysteries involve this girl that still awes me. Her strong sense of magic... I can feel from her body even though she was just a half-witch. Her intoxicating scent, even though she was my Female still didn’t change the fact that it affected me strongly, even Emilia, Lucas and my parents can see to that fact and the Vampire that attacked her.
In a span of the little time she has been in Juneau, she has been haunted, attacked, and almost died because of her excessive use of magic, if I was there with her she wouldn’t have had to go through it, and I would have protected her with my life, this is why I still blame myself and all of it partly my fault. If I was there she wouldn’t have had to go through such a traumatic experience.
