Despite my exhaustion from poor sleep and astral battles, Daelon had me doing exercises all morning to work through my anger and keep learning defensive strategies. He hadn’t calmed down from earlier, and his intensity was overbearing, to say the least.

“Again, Áine. I feel how erratic your power still is. What if he were to kill me?”

“Stop, Daelon,” I spat, opening my eyes. The fire beside us roared, the flames spitting and furious. “I don’t want to—”

“You need to be prepared for the worst,” he insisted. “You need to learn to use your emotions constructively. Just think about the possibility and try to light this candle.”

“I am not going to think about your death!”

We carried on like this for a while. Daelon provoked me and then asked me to channel my energy into far too simple of tasks. So far, I had scorched the carpet, exploded two apples, and sent Daelon across the room, which I had to admit, was mildly entertaining. He’d deserved it.

However, I did see notable progress, in spite of his questionable methods. I was beginning to tap into my ocean of power quicker and more easily—to access different forces and frequencies without getting completely lost in my mind. I was detaching more and more from my impulses. I was uncovering my own methods for magick that worked with the source energy.

I was learning how to separate my emotions from my magick so that I could finally stop closing myself off to the limitless possibilities at my fingertips. I contained so much, and my ego only got in the way. I was slowly but surely beginning to open up—to find the faith my mothers needed me to have in my purpose—the purpose I knew would save witches from the evil of this realm like Lucius and his companions.

Lucius wanted to make me feel like I was alone, but in each burst of magick I felt my mothers, my people, and sometimes, I even felt everyone all at once. Daelon might have refused to tell me more about this enemy, but I could sense that Lucius’s powers were unnatural, cold, and lifeless. It was as though everything he had was stolen.

It was he who was truly alone.

“Daelon. I’m tired,” I said, after I was pretty sure I made it snow at least a foot.

“I know, baby.” His eyes softened slightly. “But I have more planned.”
