Brigg watched Cally climb into the carriage from the library window. She was dressed in a simple blue dress, and Brigg couldn’t recall having ever seen a prettier sight. Her hair was brushed and clean and Brigg realized that the whole time he had known her, she had been dirty and scruffy. Now, she looked like the princess she was.

The human witch she is.

The wind blew her hair slightly and Brigg felt frustrated when her shiny locks covered her face. He wanted to see her eyes one last time. He couldn’t explain the need that burned in his brain. The need to see his pain reflected in her stare—he had to know she felt the same. Then she turned and looked back at the castle. Her hair flew behind her and Brigg sucked in a breath. She was beautiful, so utterly perfect, and her eyes held the same hurt as his.

His hand flew to the glass window and flattened against it. He was glad that he had stayed within the castle walls. Otherwise he would have snatched her up and run for the hills. The idea that Cally was hurting, hurt him. The knowledge that she was leaving and never coming back, nearly crippled him. But Torc was right. She had done something to him, put him under a spell, and as soon as she was gone this feeling of obsession, need and …love would go with her. The look on her face was nothing but a ruse—a lie.

There was no way that Brigg could be in love with a human, no way at all.

Definitely magic.

“Are you not going to say goodbye?” Sam’s respectfully quiet voice broke through Brigg’s melancholy and Brigg removed his hand from the window. He shook his head.

“No. I don’t ever want to talk to her again,” he mumbled, hating that the words felt like glass in his mouth. Sam stood alongside him and watched Torc close the carriage door. Cally leaned back in the shadows of the carriage, just out of Brigg’s view. His feet twitched with the need to run out to her, but he curbed the treacherous thought.

Magic. Remember, Brigg? But right now, it didn’t feel like magic. Sending her away felt wrong

“Except, I don’t believe you, Brigg.”

Brigg clenched his jaw. “She has put me under a spell.” He said the words and tried to believe them. It had to be true.

“A pretty hot spell.”

“What the fuck does that mean?” Brigg snapped rounding on Sam. Sam raised an inquisitive brow and nodded his head to Cally and the carriage.

“I am just saying it’s not a bad spell to be under, if that’s what you get out of it.” Sam half grinned and Brigg felt an instant jab of jealousy to his heart.

“Keep your fucking eyes to yourself, Ram.” Yes, definitely jealousy. Brigg cursed inwardly and ignored the knowing look from his brother’s friend.

“All I’d like to know is what she saw in you.” Sam turned and walked into the library. Brigg kept his stare on the outside and the carriage window, desperate for another glimpse of Cally.
