CAMILLA'S POV

“What does she mean by she saw her in her dream? We locked her powers, Ryker," I whispered harshly once we were out of the room. Audrey was seated cross legged on the bed oblivious to what was happening and I made sure to check on her every few seconds. “Lyla locked her powers. We didn’t want this to happen. How long has it been happening?”

“Calm down.”

“I cannot calm down. You remember what happened the last time she had these kinds of dreams. Our daughter couldn't sleep for days. She was a shell of herself. I cannot watch that happen to her again. I refuse to.”

“Camilla-"

“She is our baby. She does not deserve this. She should have a few years left. We were promised a few years. This is not a few years.”

He placed both hands on my shoulders. “Breathe, baby, you will drive yourself insane.”

I forced air into my lungs and forced them back out. I couldn't think, couldn't see clearly in front of me. I remembered just how bad it was the last time, it was a miracle she was still sitting in front of us, except she was hiding the worst of it but I didn’t think Audrey could do that which meant it was still manageable. Some paragraphs are incomplete if you are not reading this novel on Jo b nib.com. I glanced at my daughter once more and this time, she lifted her head. She smiled when she saw me and waved. I couldn't stop myself from waving back before turning to Ryker.

“What should we do?” I asked but he said nothing. “Ryker, I need you right now because I don’t know what to do. I cannot think about Reina and think about Audrey at the same time.”

“I know,” he whispered softly. “We need to know how bad it is. We need to know how much she has seen and we nee to find a witch to try and lock her powers.”

“Please don't,” I heard Audrey say from inside and I turned to her. “She said you would do that but you can't. If you lock it again, it will be very bad.”

“How bad?” I asked and she shrugged. “what exactly did she say?”

“I don't know. She told me to ask you not to lock it.”
