Once again, I was running. Deep breaths, focused, calm. I imagined my bedroom. Empty, alone. Just me. In my bed. No distractions.
The blurring came faster this time and before the dragon even sent his first fire, I was in my room alone.
I kept my mind clear and focused by looking at the details in my room. The framed photo of me and Raven. The crystal I picked up on a family vacation. The school books and my backpack. My sweater hanging over my chair. It was bland and boring and safe.
But my mind was sharp and focused. I was a vault. No distractions.
Suddenly, everything faded and my eyes fluttered open. I was back in the Spellcasting room and Drake was grinning at me.
“Took you long enough,” he said.
“You’re an asshole, you know that?” I asked.
“Yeah, I do,” he said.
“He is, but you passed,” Professor Flora said.
“Yeah?” I asked. “Please tell me we don’t have to do that again.”
“Not for class, no,” she said. “But you do share a mate with a demon with the same powers. You should know what he is capable of.”
I swallowed. It was odd to think about what Luka could do. I never knew exactly how powerful his magic was before tonight. “But it’s just a dream, right?”
“Sure,” Drake said. “But if you didn’t fight back, I could get anything I wanted from you in that state.”
“Good point,” I said. My mind whirred. It was a dangerous skill for sure. But the possibilities of how to use it were endless. The ability to find missing people and get information that was otherwise impossible to find was endless.
Though, there was the other side of it. If someone like Luka was using this power, would anyone even know? What if he was visiting Raven in her dreams? Could he be making her do things she didn’t want to do?
There was good that could come from it, but I wasn’t sure I liked the idea of Luka’s magic when it came to Raven.
