Chapter 273: Chapter 273 – Her Darkness

Emma’s POV

Sophia woke up as soon as I entered the room.

“Mom?” she mumbled sleepily. “What are you doing?”

“Taking it away, honey,” I said as I approached the bed.

Her eyes widened a little. She opened her mouth to speak, but I used my magic to put her back to sleep.

I couldn’t risk her mind-linking anyone.

I sat on the bed next to her and leaned in to kiss her cheek.

“I love you, honey,” I said quietly. “I will make it go away. I promise.”

I moved a strand of hair from her forehead. I smiled a little. I loved her so much.

I stood up and kneeled next to the bed. I wanted to spend more time with Sophie, but I couldn’t. I didn’t have time to. I had to hurry up.

I pulled out a box of everything I needed to extract darkness from her and put it inside me.

I pulled out three candles and walked away. I placed the candles on the ground in front of the room. I needed to do the spell outside of the room. I had no idea how would I react once the darkness was inside me. I needed to work fast and lock myself inside before I did something stupid.

I went back and used my magic to move Sophia from her bed to the ground outside the room. I grabbed her blanket from the room and covered her up. I kneeled next to her and kissed her forehead.
