Chapter 270: Confessions
Jules’ pov
I shook my head vehemently and sniffed, and then I gently pressed the ice against his arm.
"Is the pain reducing?" I asked after a little while and he nodded in response but I knew he was lying.
I wiped the tears away from my cheeks and then I tore the ice packs away, flinging it across the room, and then I hovered my hand above his arms, letting my eyes fall shut.
I didn’t know what I was doing and I felt extremely ridiculous but guilt was eating at every inch of my heart and I hated seeing him in pain, especially because I knew this was because of me. I let all my thoughts fall away, completely freeing my mind, and then I called upon my magic.
The gate of my magic slid open for me, providing entrance to my request and I began to hum a tune even I didn’t recognize, because it literally just came into my head from nowhere. Warmth grew in my chest just as tendrils of magic began to flow lit from my gate of magic. It was gold in color and very warm. It grew larger as I continued to hum, traveling through my veins and escaping through my palm, straight into Blaze’s arms.
The rush of magic in my arms suddenly intensified, almost catching me off guard but I caught myself at the last moment, reminding myself to not break the spell in the middle. Despite feeling confused and unsure if what I was doing was working or not, I continued to hum the tune, welcoming the surge of magic flow when it happened next.
When the whole rush finally ebbed away as the tune slowly faded away from my head, I blinked my eyes open, blinking slowly and trying to adjust myself to the temperature of the room’s light.
Blaze’s eyes were blown wide and as I slowly glanced down at his arms, a gasp tore past my throat in surprise.
