Chapter 59: Soulmate Bond
The air shifted around her once again and Annalise felt the similar tendrils of magic making their way along the spell. She pictured the candle transforming into the moonstone, imagining its transformation clearly as she pushed her powers into the imagination.
"It worked."
Her eyes flew open as she heard Valerius’ voice and as she turned to look at the candle, she found a glowing moonstone hovering there.
A smile bloomed on her lips in the enjoyment of her success. She hurriedly turned back to look at her husband as she thanked him. "Thank you for teaching me this spell."
Valerius finally pulled his hand away from where he had been holding her hand against his shoulder and brushed his fingers over her temple as he tucked a loose strand of her hair behind her ear. "You are a capable student, I won’t mind teaching you at all. It’s actually a pleasure to feel your powers against mine."
Annalise found her heart warming up but she wasn’t sure if it was because of his words or his fingers that were placed against the side of her neck. His touch was ice cold against her burning skin.
"I... I felt your powers too. But I have never heard about something like this before. Is it even possible to feel someone else’s powers in the same manner as ours?" She finally asked the question that had been bugging her.
"No."
Valerius’ answer surprised her but before she could have asked any more questions, the man decided to elaborate further on his own.
