CHAPTER FIFTEEN

Domination hung by the waist of my jeans in its leather sheath, as secure and snug as my pants. Dad had showed me how to attach it securely to my belt, but it was still awkward the way it hung at my side. Although Domination wasn’t a very heavy sword, it still added extra weight to the left side of my body, forcing me to stand very stiffly in order to avoid falling over. It helped that my vampire side made me stronger, but even then, I knew it would be a while before I became fully comfortable with Domination.

“How does it feel?” said Dad, standing across from me in the space we cleared in the basement for this purpose. “It’s not to heavy, is it?”

“No,” I said, shaking my head. I adjusted my belt. “It’s just a little different from what I’m used to, that’s all.”

“Understandable,” said Dad. “You’ve never used a sword in your life, but by the time we’re done with our training, you will be a pro. After all, you’ve got the best sword teacher in the world right here.”

I could not help but smile when Dad said that. “Dad, isn’t humility supposed to be a Christian virtue?”

“True, but there’s nothing wrong with being honest about your abilities,” said Dad. “Before we begin, however, I want to teach you about magic.”

I frowned. “Aren’t we supposed to learn about sword dueling? I thought that’s what you were going to teach me.”

“I am, but it just occurred to me that you don’t know anything about magic,” said Dad. “Lucius has already taught you a thing or two about your vampire abilities, but no one has taught you anything about magic. So we’ll start with that and move on from there. Plus, my fighting style incorporated sword-fighting and spell casting, so you need to learn both.”

“Well, I’d rather learn about magic than how to stab someone anyway,” I said. “It sounds less violent.”

Dad smiled in a way I didn’t like. “Yeah, blowing up someone’s head with a flick of your finger is definitely a lot less violent than stabbing or slashing them. Glad you’re ready to learn.”

I probably should have seen that coming, but now I couldn’t get the mental image of someone’s head blowing up out of my head. It made me think that maybe swords weren’t as violent as I thought.

“All right,” said Dad. He held up a hand and a small fireball suddenly appeared in the palm of his hand. “This is a basic demonstration of my magical power. A simple fireball, which is one of the easier spells to do and one of the first I’ll be teaching you.”

I looked down at my own hands, which were cold and pale. “How am I supposed to conjure a fireball in my hands? Do I need a wand or something?”

Dad shook his head. He started tossing the fireball from hand to hand like a tennis ball, which I thought was rather dangerous because of the possibility of him dropping it and setting the basement on fire.
