Chapter 95

It was early in the morning. The sun was just barely greeting the new day. I was in a semi-open field. The only thing near me were a few extra large trees that, if I weren't a powerful magical Lycan, looked extra spooky. The wind kissed my bare legs, sending a chill through me. I closed my eyes, finding my center. I felt the magic run through my system. My eyes opened looking at a tree and with a snap of my fingers, the tree snapped in half.

"Woah. How in the world?" Charlotte sounded surprised.

"I don't know. I just felt it, did the action, and that happened." I told her.

"Go check out your work." She encouraged me.

I walked across the field to the splintered tree. I watched my step as I walked around the tree. Nothing was left but the stump in the ground and the broken limbs. I felt someone watching me. I turned my head to where I felt their presence the most. My eyes adjusted to the darkness that lingered throughout the wooded area. I spotted him. A man who was watching me from a distance with a weird expression that turned quickly to shock. When I blinked, he was gone. I was unsure if it was real or not. He seemed surprised that I spotted him. He seemed so far away, I wasn't sure how I was able to see him so clearly.

I decided to vacate the field myself, rushing back to the safety of the castle. I knew I shouldn't have ventured out alone, but I had to. The closer I got to the castle, the stronger and more energized I felt. I don't know why I did it, but I jumped up in the air as I approached the castle wall. I flew over the top of the wall, to the other side, landing with a loud thud.

"Holy cow!" Charlotte commented.

"I know." I smirked.

"Avalynn!" The familiar sound of Everest's deep voice filled my ears. As much as it made me want to swoon, I knew he saw what happened. In a flash, he was by my side. "What the hell was that?"

"I... Uh.. I don't really know? It..It just happened." I stuttered, tripping over my words. His face seemed like he was intrigued, but the anger in his voice said otherwise.

"Do it again." He commanded me, instead of asking.

Charlotte let out a growl and I frowned. "I don't know if I can."

He was now wearing a shocked expression and he sighed. "I'm sorry. Can you just try, please."

I nodded my head and focused. Suddenly, like a burst of energy, I jumped up to the wall, landing on the catwalk." I turned around and looked at Everest. His mouth was hanging open.

"How?" He asked me.
