“What was that?” Johnny’s eyes are wide on me, the energy that just moved through us finally fading away.

“Have you ever heard of a Fated connection between Enchanters? It’s like having a soul mate, but only… magical.” My face heats with my words, which is crazy since I’m still lying bare beneath the man.

His forehead creases, and for a second, I think it’s because he’ll be resistant to our truth. “My parents were Fated. Well, they often said it. I just thought it meant that they were deeply in love, because that’s how it seemed.” His eyes focus back on me. “You’re telling me it’s actually a thing?”

I suck in a breath and release it almost immediately. “Charlotte told me there’s a physical response when two mates connect for the first time, but I wasn’t expecting that to happen.”

“You didn’t expect it?” The creases in his forehead deepen. “You knew we were Fated?”

I bite down on my bottom lip. “I did.”

“How?”

“It all started with our first kiss, when I went faint. The story of Astina’s first kiss with her Fated was so similar, but I still wasn’t sure. But then you told me you couldn’t kill me when you wanted to. My biggest clue was that you were able to take my bracelet that night. There are specific ways that bracelet could have been removed. Either by me to gift to a descendant of mine or by my Fated, my one true love.” I swallow, my eyes searching his, desperate for a response. “That’s you.”

It’s silent for a long while. I guess he’s processing this new major bit of information, but I’m starting to get scared he doesn’t want to be Fated to me. We’re still young. We still have so much to experience.

“I’m sorry.” My voice so weak, I barely recognize it.

Confusion flashes in his eyes. “Why are you sorry?”

I take another sip of air, my body already shaking with a new kind of fear. “You weren’t given a choice.”

His expression relaxes. “I don’t need a choice, Kat. And I don’t need to be Fated to you to know you’re the only one I’ll ever want or need or care for in this way.” He cups my face and presses his lips to mine. “But knowing this does put things into perspective.”

“How?”

“Like how I saw you that first night you came into town. The moment I spotted you through that open window, I felt like I knew you. And the second you were out of my sight, I knew you would haunt me forever. I just didn’t realize how much you would test me.”

A smile lifts my cheeks. “How did I test you?”

“Anytime I got near you, I was both fulfilled and tortured by your presence. I mistook it all for something darker in the beginning, but it didn’t stop me from wanting you. You were a constant in my mind, my curiosity for you making me do things that not even I thought I was capable of doing.”

I swallow, enjoying his confessions way too much.
