CHAPTER THIRTEEN

LIA

“I, Cecilia Blackwood, the second in the Order of Caledonia, announce my arrival. I accept the responsibility of protecting the Clach na Fìrinn and promise to restore the Order to its fullness. In doing so, I show myself worthy of the magick bestowed upon me, the same magick given to my blood before me. It is with these words that I establish the Order of Caledonia as the first line of protection for the Clach na Fìrinn, and accept the power given to me therein. It is with a pure heart and sound mind that I accept this gift, and I give my promise to stand with the Order of Caledonia.”

My words drifted back to me the next morning as I lay in bed, far later than I usually would, my emotions knotting in my stomach. Yesterday had been, well, it had been a day for the books, that was for sure. Between seeing the broonie, learning about the Order, all the way to meeting a unicorn on the path home, it had been incredible. Incredible. Overwhelming. Unbelievable. All of the things. I felt like I was in that Space Invaders video game and just cruising along, dodging all the meteors trying to blow up my ship. It was truly that wild. I couldn’t actually believe all of the things that I had learned the day before.

That I had become.

I looked down at my hands and wondered what my magick would be. Archie had told me it would manifest after the ritual was completed, and while I had felt a ripple of something…awareness, maybe, go through me at the completion of the ceremony, I still felt like me.

Lia Blackwood. Fish out of water.

Which was fine, really, I reminded myself, as I took a sip of my coffee and stared out the window to the loch. The rain came down in vicious sheets today, which also contributed to my reluctance to leave my bed. That and I needed a moment or two to process.

A freaking unicorn.

I still couldn’t believe it. I sincerely hoped that it wasn’t my drunk imagination. But Munroe had said he’d seen it too, and I just couldn’t see him being mean enough to toy with me like that. He was about the nicest teddy bear around, it just didn’t seem to be in his nature to lie. I groaned, flopping back against my pillows, as I thought about our kiss. Kisses, my ladyparts helpfully reminded me. I was doing a horrible job of establishing my boundaries. It was like, my head told me one thing and then two seconds in the presence of Munroe, and I was climbing the man like a tree. What was it about him that was like catnip to me? I truly felt like a cat in heat, and I was certain I’d soon be wailing and strutting myself in front of him until he moved past the kissing stage and eased this ache that I had for him.

Maybe he was just an itch that needed to be scratched.
