I would have stayed there all night just staring at her, letting her gaze pin me in place, if it weren’t for the dark elves. They drag her around the corner, breaking our eye contact, and it jerks me out of my daze.
Still, I don’t move, even as my senses come rushing back in. I can hear and smell everything again, and I even take a few stumbling steps forward.
Her gaze has left my body feeling tingly and off-kilter, which is extremely unusual for me. I am known to be so disciplined now, but the way my heart is pounding and adrenaline is rushing through me proves that something revolutionary has just occurred.
My mind replays the scene over and over as I try to make sense of it. It’s been so long since I’ve felt anything remotely close to that, and I need to understand what happened.
How did this human pull that out of me? What was she?
My body starts to burn with a fire that I don’t know how to tame as I think of her, and the only thought that I can process is that I need to go after her. I’m not sure if what I just experienced was pleasant, but it was more than the usual numbness that I have grown used to.
I ache to understand it, to explore it more, but I have waited too long. I pace down the hall, but I have no idea where they have taken the girl.
It seems that my questions are answered as the room below roars to life, announcers shouting. Normally, I would ignore such a commotion, but with my body heightened and my head in such a weird place, I find myself rushing toward the VIP door.
I'm not sure why, but I thought that maybe all that noise could actually solve something for me.
