Chapter Twenty-Four

Settling back in her seat, she watched him ready himself for a confession. She wanted to break this new tension between them. It was heavy and messy, she aimed to lighten the mood. “I know I’ve been living in the wilderness, but I think I would have heard of the Compass Points doing something to upset the balance.”

“It was small at first. I started seeing it in one of the first meetings after I became the Suden Point.” He paused again, weighing a decision she wasn’t yet privy to. “It might be easier if I show you,” he said, holding his hand out to her, asking her to take it. She sat up a little bit more at that.

“Show me—as in more than just a sample of feelings?”

His lips twitched up at the corner. “Yes, though I think you got more than I bargained for with that last taste.”

She smiled thinking of the final image of her face that had snuck in. “It’s possible,” she replied, and leaned forward. Her hand poised over his, teasing closer but not yet touching. “Do many people get to experience these extra gifts of yours?”

He gave a shake of his head. Her fingers slid over the open palm of his hand, a spark that had nothing to do with magic igniting between them.

“Why have you decided to trust me with them?”

His eyes remained locked on her fingers trailing up and down the length of his palm. His posture loosened as her fingers moved. A comfort eased over him, even as he was about to perform magic. Pine and cinnamon started to swirl around them as Luc replied, “You know why.”

She stopped tracing his palm and grabbed his hand, intertwining their fingers.

His lip turned up at the corner as their hands locked, and she plunged into his memory.
