It didn’t feel nearly as great as I thought it would to accuse Alder in front of the others. For some reason, I’d thought it would be a triumphant moment when I put together all the pieces of information that had been floating around in my mind. Somehow, I’d expected that I’d confront him with my knowledge of what he’d done, and he would become tamer.

The reverse happened. Where he had been odd and abrupt before, now he became as wild as a forest animal. His eyes blazed his displeasure at me, and he stood from his seat so quickly that he knocked over half the things on the table. When he left camp, stomping away from the foothills, his feet sinking into the marshy ground, I was sure he hated me. Had I really believed he would smooth all his rough edges, just because I’d called him out on a mistake? I would not even like him as much if he was different.

While we all cleaned our camp and found our beds, silence reigned. He had to come back. Without Alder, we had no idea how to find the spirit, or how to bring her back to the Academy. As I unzipped the door of my tent, I stood thinking about my feelings for the strange professor. I knew I would, in fact, like him any way that he was. We were bonded. The earth magic that stretched between us existed in the spaces that separated us, and in our souls as well. It did not matter to me in any way what he was like. He was mine. That was enough.

Surely he felt the same?

I ran my hand through my hair, wishing I knew that to be the truth. As I did, I felt Rook and Owain walking up behind me. Even as I turned around, I was shaking my head. “We shouldn’t. Not tonight.”

Rook frowned. “Do you mean to say you’re worried about the earth man? Or is it that you want to make sure your bed is empty in case he comes to it?”

“That’s enough,” said Owain. “It is destined to happen, so there’s no need to make such heavy weather about it.”

“Well, it’s not destined to happen tonight,” I said crisply. “It’s just that I have to keep my magic completely under control. If I don’t, the mist will come and surround us, and then none of us will ever leave here.” I smiled gently to try to take the irritation from my words, but I didn’t need to. They both understood, as they did everything about me.

In the morning, Alder was back at camp, tending to the greenery that sheltered us when I woke up. Nobody mentioned the fact that I’d publicly blamed him for putting the entire world of the fae in danger. I certainly didn't. Who was I to call somebody out for making a mistake?

When I saw the huge forest man, all I could think of was how much I wanted to touch him.
