I didn’t know how to feel about Elias and EliaseAnne.
Not only did I have to witness him – them – dying in my arms because I couldn’t dodge that lightning spear, but to then find out one of the men I cared about and female best friend were the same person.
I couldn’t determine whether I was angry for the deceitful act or relieved to finally know the truth. It’s not like I was completely oblivious to the possibility, but in this short life I’d lived and the multiple books I’ve read, not once had I heard of a male host having a female spirit.
It was unheard of.
So why was EliaseAnne connected to Elias?
I shook my head as I let out a frustrated huff, and turned the tap on. I splash my face with cold water.
I’ll deal with that later.
I changed into the set of clothes I randomly chose; black shorts and a gold top, the wordsFairy Queenplastered on front. I glared at the piece of fabric.
I swear this is karma at its best.
I let out another huff, forcing myself to pull over the crop top
I took a few minutes to brush my hair out, before tying it up into a ponytail.
I seriously need to trim my hair...I wonder if Midnight likes it this long?
Since my near-death experience, it seemed easier to communicate with Midnight. It wasn’t like talking back and forth the way I did with my spirits. But there were certain times when I thought about her and wished for her opinion, I’d feel a weird sensation go through me.
After some trial and error, I’d figured out what feeling meant yes and what meant no. I didn’t know what this new development happening between us meant, but it didn’t worry me.
It would be nice if Midnight and I could communicate with no barriers.
TheYESsensation flowed through me, causing me to smile in happiness.
I could never thank Midnight enough for saving the guys from King Aspen. I would have never been able to develop such a flawless plan in the situation she was in.
I knew she had feelings for Elias, so I could only imagine the amount of fear she had felt awaking to his pale, weak expression; his body surrounded by blood, and the chaos happening around her.
I applied the red gloss that Marcus had picked up, courtesy of Scarlet and looked at the mirror.
My turquoise eyes were vibrant as usual, my pale complexion back to its original shade, my cheeks slightly flushed from my little make-out session with Ryder and my glossy red lips.
I looked much better. I didn’t even want to imagine how bad I looked during those horrendous two weeks of darkness. Just the thought of the dark essence consuming my body, had me shivering as I tried to control my heart rate from escalating.
I need to move...need to just get air and sunlight. The sunshine will rid of the darkness.
I walked out of the washroom and slipped on my neon pink runners, heading straight out the front door. Once the door closed behind me, I turned to face the wondrous scenery before me, inhaling deeply.
The sun’s rays felt magnificent against my skin, warming up my soul. I brushed away the negative feelings that lurked in my mind, trying to remind me of my past struggle and enjoyed the blissfulness before me, Mother Starlight’s gift to all shifters.
“Makoto?”
I opened my eyes slowly, turning my head to the alto voice that called me.
My eyes landed on my dragon shifter, Marcus.
He wore a pair of black shorts; his caramel, brown hair tied up in one of those sexy man buns. His chiseled chest was on full display, the definition in his six-pack enough to make my insides flip with desire. Not to mention that bloody V line, the lower abdominal muscles making an appearance before disappearing into those black silky shorts.
Curse them.
Marcus’ prominent markings were plastered across his chest; the majority of the various swirls and knot work located on his right side. The thick and thin lines flowed around his shoulder and encircled his upper right arm.
