After we finished the paella, Cal, Adrian, and I were leaned back in our seats, quietly contemplating our choices. The dish had been delicious, but I thought I might have overindulged just a bit. Cal and Adrian looked to be in physical pain and were far from being able to move.

Draven sipped another mug of coffee in the kitchen, eyeing the still half-filled enormous dish of food with obvious distaste. I wondered how long it took after you’d been changed to start to detest regular food. Could he eat it still if he wanted to? Or would his immortal body reject it?

Still so much to learn.

Draven caught me staring and narrowed his gaze at me. “Something on my face?”

I shook my head. “Nope.”

I couldn’t even bring myself to feel embarrassed for staring. This was the fullest I’d been in ages, and I felt contended and ready for a good long sleep. I patted my full belly and yawned, lethargy in my limbs as I tried to stretch them out and stood.

“I don’t think I’ve ever seen a human eat so much in one sitting,” Draven mused, sipping his coffee with an infuriating smirk.

“Witch,” I corrected. “You’ve never seen a witch eat so—”

Dee entered the room, ensnaring my attention with her disheveled look and breathlessness. My heart thudded in my chest—afraid to hear whatever she had to say.

“There’s,” she breathed, bending slightly to put her hands on her knees and catch her breath. “There’s a man—a witch, I think—down at the gate. Says he knows you.”

What?

“Called himself Elias,” she added after regaining her composure. “I wasn’t sure if I should let him—”

“I’ll get it!” I almost squealed, all leftover traces of lethargy vanished as I sprinted down the hall and tore open the front door, running to the gate with a shit-eating grin on my face.

I’d tried to contact him twice since we arrived, but both times he hadn’t been in his cabin on the Academy grounds, and I wasn’t sure I’d be able to communicate with him without knowing his proper location in Andorra at his parent’s house. Not to mention, even if I could it would seem a bit weird to his parents that a student was trying to speak to him over summer break.

I was ecstatic he’d taken it upon himself to just come on his own! But it had to have been a long trip since he couldn’t portal. If he’d just gone back to the academy, I could have portaled him here from just outside the grounds. I shook my head as my footfalls thudded against the gravel drive and the cool evening breeze licked at my arms and lifted my hair from my neck.

The sharper rocks dug into the soles of my feet, but I didn’t care. I didn’t realize how used to seeing him every day I’d grown in the past weeks. Being without him for even two days now seemed a lifetime. I wanted to smack myself at how ridiculous that sounded, but it was the truth.
