CHAPTER NINE

“Kenna?” The feel of Bree’s hand smoothing along my back startled me, and I flinched. “Are you all right?”

I nodded. “Mmm-hmm.”

I was sure I didn’t seem convincing. How could I? I was freaking out! Was I having a stroke? Were these the signs for something like that?

Rubbing my eyes, I opened them reluctantly. No glitter swirled around Bree, and for a fraction of a second, I thought everything was okay, but then I remembered there never had been anything around her. It had only been around Delvin—and every other male in my line of vision.

“Do you have a headache or something?” Delvin asked, concern swelling within his words.

“Yeah, a slight one,” I lied. How the hell was I supposed to tell them I was seeing shit floating around every guy I looked at? Delvin would think I was nuts, and Bree would be worried sick. “It hit me out of nowhere.”

Bree smoothed her hand over my forearm. “Maybe something to eat would be a good thing for all of us.”

“Sure.” I nodded, rubbing my temple to add to my headache excuse. “Let’s grab something.”

“There’s a place around the corner,” Delvin said. “Do you feel like walking or should I drive us?”

I couldn’t look at him. If I did, I’d see the glitter shit again and be right back where I was seconds ago—on the verge of a panic attack. Had that witch put some sort of spell on me without me realizing? Surely not. No matter what I had just told Delvin about thinking she was the real deal as well, witches, magic, all that mumbo jumbo, it didn’t exist.

Did it? Was this what she meant about me having questions later on?

“Walk, walking would be good.” I let my hands fall to my sides. Plastering a small smile onto my face, I risked a glance at Delvin. The golden specks floating around him had dulled in color. I took this as a sign that maybe whatever was wrong with me was beginning to fade. “I think some fresh air would be good for me right now.”

We followed Delvin around the corner, and down the street. A café caught my attention near the end, but not for the right reasons. The colors of the place were vibrant, but it was the group of people standing outside the doors that captured my attention and held it.

Five people—three guys, and two girls. To anyone else, they most likely appeared normal while they stood talking to one another, but to me, there was something strange about the way their shimmering glitter seemed to float around each of them with no prejudice to their sex as I’d seen before. My eyes shifted back to Bree, thinking this thing—whatever it was—must be getting worse, but when my eyes focused on her, there was nothing there. She was shimmer free still.

What was going on?

Risking another glance at the group as we approached them, I noticed something else odd—each of them had the same color lingering in the air around them.
