CHAPTER 11

Fae all supposedly have the Sight, the ability to see things that aren’t right in front of us. It’s what Raven and Cain just did on the couch, to locate the Aurora Gem.

Some people say that all fae are connected, that we’re all just pieces of one great… spirit? Soul? Thing. Others say that you can see what will be or what was. Not just the present in other places, but the future and the past.

But I’ve never had the Sight. If I did have it, I’d be able to try to use it to find an Aurora Gem myself. I think part of it is that I lost my parents when I was young. I never had anyone to teach me. I’ve been operating as a human this whole time.

Sometimes, I wondered if it was just me. If I was… not enough, as a fae. If I was weak. I was trying to be human anyway, though, so what the hell did it matter, right?

But now, I’m definitely seeing something.

I feel like I’m not even in my body. Or rather… like I’m not connected to it. I’m seeing through a body, but I can’t feel it or control anything. I can only see. I think I’m floating?

Right up ahead of me stands a woman. She looks—a lot like me, actually. Tall, light brown skin, thick brown hair, an Amazon’s build. Snapping dark eyes. But she has this air of power and command that I’ve never had. This woman looks like the epitome of confidence and royalty.

Yeah. She looks… regal.

Of course, all of this could have something to do with the fact that she’s leading a whole damn army of fae.

My jaw would drop if it could do that right now. This army is huge. It’s clearly an important battle.

Is that me? Am I doing that? She looks just like me. I don’t see how it could be anyone else. But it can’t possibly be me. I’m a loner, I work by myself. I’ve never led anyone in my life.

Everything shifts, like looking through a kaleidoscope, and next thing I know I’m in the woman. We’re the same person. I’m still not in charge, I can’t control anything. It’s just a new perspective.

The two of us—or rather, me in this woman’s body, or her with me as a ride-along, it’s hard to tell—stand strong and raise our arm up into the air, and everyone seems to cheer in response. I can’t hear anything, for some reason. I can only see. But people are opening their mouths and seem to be cheering.

Am I saying something? I can’t tell if our mouth is moving or not. But people are reacting as if they’ve just heard a rousing, inspiring speech. Everyone’s wearing armor, including me. But I can’t see our enemy. I can’t even see where exactly we are. Are we in the middle of a field? In a city? This army of mine seems to be just on the bare ground with nothing but a vague background, like someone was doing a painting and hasn’t finished yet.
