Together, we sat in silence as Toby picked at the remaining food. I let him think about all that he had heard as he attempted to eat. It wasn’t shocking to me that demons had birthed witches. I’d grown up hearing similar tales. I could also guess at what they hadn’t said. Yet, I didn’t voice that knowledge. I knew that my witch was overwhelmed by what had happened.

I also knew that I needed to speak to Toby soon about my sister and the curse. Every moment that I put it off was potentially fatal to her. Finding the right time was just so hard. Now he was too overwhelmed by who he truly was to take on this extra burden.

“If I have a close demon ancestor, this means witches have bound themselves to demons before, doesn’t it?” Of course, Toby had come to the answer himself.

“It does. It would likely mean that the spell they gave you was an old one and whoever gave it to you didn’t understand its purpose.” I attempted to not place blame on his friend. I didn’t trust Oscar. Didn’t trust any of his coven aside from his sister, and perhaps August, with his close bond with Tabitha.

“Makes sense.” Toby sounded so flat. So morose.

“Toby, let’s get out of here. Explore the city,” I suggested, trying to lighten the mood.

“We can’t. Not with you like that,” he muttered.

I frowned. “I’ll cover my horns and keep my eyes down. We can get better clothes, yes?”

“Yeah. I think we should get a burner phone so I can call Tabby and let her know I’m okay.” Having something to do seemed to improve his mood.

“And you can show me what a jaguar is.”

That gained me a tiny lift of his lips. “Of course. I forgot.”

“But I didn’t.”

His expression was fond. “No, you didn’t.” He began to look sad again. He needed affection and fresh air.

I stood and held out a hand to him. Taking it, Toby grinned at me. I pulled him into a hug. “It will be okay in the end.”

“With you next to me. I believe it.”

The walk over to the cabin we were staying in was painful. I’d flown over and now I had to walk over the tiny prickly stones, wincing with each step we took. “Just fly, Zeph. There’s literally no one here.” Instead, I cushioned my feet with air, lifting me off the ground a little. Toby laughed. “Love it!” Just to hear the sound more, I lifted myself higher, so we were the same height.

Wanting more of his smiles, I slung my arm around his waist and lifted him so that we were both hovering above the ground. “Let your magic do it,” I suggested.

Toby gave a nervous giggle. “Nah, I’ll end up shooting into those trees.” He pointed to a distant copse of trees on the outskirts of the parking lot.

“I promise to help you with your control.” The bond would allow me to siphon off some of the magic that he used and filter it back to him slowly.
