The Veil
I sit in front of a door, waiting for Pyre. In front of me is nothing but a seemingly never-ending hallway but there aren’t any doors on either side. At the end of the hallway is space and above me is more space. I don’t know where I am, but I’m not concerned.
Pyre instructed me to walk down the flight of stairs and wait for him at the end of the hallway. So, I did as I was instructed.
I’m alone and I don’t know where the others are. But I trust Pyre and I feel safe here, in the Veil. What’s more, I’m beyond excited to learn how to call on the light and dark magic inherent within me. All I’ve wanted from the moment I found myself running from something, was to understand who and what I am. And while I’m so grateful for my friends, none of them have any idea how to help me understand my powers.
Except for Pyre.
Owing to his incredible magic, I can’t help but wonder if he might also possess the ability to help restore my missing memories. It’s worth asking him.
On another note, my reaction to seeing him without his robe was more than I anticipated. His body was… blindsiding in its sculpted beauty. I don’t know if it’s simply the Succubus in me, but I find Pyre fascinating—on different levels. Sexual levels included.
The necromancer is attractive, despite his white, blind eyes, or perhaps because of them. Even his tattooed runes are beautiful to me.
I hear the door open from behind me and I turn to find Pyre standing there. He’s wearing nothing more than black leather trousers slung low on his hips. His bare chest seems to glow faintly and before I know it, the landscape surrounding us changes. Now, we’re no longer in a hallway, but we’re in the middle of a ghostly forest. The trees around me are tall and daunting and tinged with a faint greenish glow. In fact, everything seems to glow here, in a pale haze that makes me feel like I’m dreaming.
“Are you ready?” the deep timber of his voice never fails to make me shiver.
“Um, yes,” I say, instantly feeling self-conscious and stupid. There’s just something about this man that makes me feel uncouth and awkward. Maybe it’s the sense of pure power that he exudes. Or maybe it’s due to his immense body that seems impossibly large for a man.
“The most important part of learning is listening,” he starts.
“Before we delve into my lesson for the day,” I interrupt him, and he gives me an expression of irritation. “I’m sorry,” I say as I drop my head.
“What’s your question?”
I lift my head and try to smile away my nervousness, but I don’t do a good job. Pyre is intimidating and he makes me doubt myself. “I… I was wondering…”
“Yes, what?”
“Um, do you… or… are you capable of… well, maybe that’s not the way to phrase it.”
“What, Eilish?”
“Do you think you could help me get my memories back?” I blurt out.
