My heart twisted in anguish, realizing that not only were Zev, Aeon, and Lucien affected by this curse, but their entire pack.
“When you dropped your blood in the cauldron, I felt you were different. I knew you would be our savior.”
“I don’t think I would use the word savior, but I’ll try everything I can to break the curse.” I grabbed his hand, still not used to his corporeal body, even though his hand felt solid in mine. “I’ll try until my last minute.”
“Thank you.” He patted my hand. “I’ll do everything in my power to help you, but I must get going. This place isn’t going to run itself and dinner is going to be sensational today. I’m going to make a pot pie.”
“That sounds delicious, I can’t wait,” I said, grabbing a croissant.
“Rest, I hear Aeon might need help with the wards on the castle. I’ll send dinner to the library if you’d like.” He looked back at me with a smile. “If you were my daughter I would be proud of the woman you have become.”
Mr. Potter nodded at me before he disappeared into the wall, making me tear up. All I’ve ever wanted was to hear someone say they were proud of me. I had to hear it from a man who was a ghost and wasn’t even my family. God, my life was so fucked up.
I grabbed Vivienne’s book off my nightstand and turned to her last entry.
Thane is my everything. I cannot imagine a life without him but today he cast a spell that had my stomach churning from the aftermath. We power shared and it was euphoric, but he used my power for a spell that I wasn’t comfortable with.
His excuse was that he was testing the boundaries of our magic. What we could achieve together and a small part of me is terrified that he might be using me. When we link, he assumes full control of the energy.
Vivienne was so starved for love and attention, my heart hurt for her. I guess in that sense we were so much alike. Thinking people only wanted to use us and I couldn’t help thinking that there was always a chance that they might use me too.

After Mr. Potterleft my room, I read for a while before taking a nap. I didn’t think I could go back to sleep but I did for another four hours. I woke up missing Lucien again, wishing he didn’t turn into a wolf that wanted to rip my head off.
It had been way too long since I had done any good research on the curse, and if we had Aeon's help then we might have a chance. Somehow I felt like Zev might be the key to the spell but I think hell would freeze over before he offered his help. The rain continued and the air in the castle was cool. I threw on a pair of leggings and a large shirt with a pair of my comfy UGGs.
I headed down to the library with my bag, feeling a lot better than I had in weeks. The library felt like home the moment I stepped in and looked even better when I spotted Aeon. He had a few books opened along the table, and was hunched over, reading a text with his bottom lip in between his teeth.
Aeon was sexy as hell.
Lucien walked up to him, showing him a book. They read together and said a few words before Aeon showed Lucien another book. They looked at the text before Lucien said something else, making Aeon laugh. He leaned over still laughing, bringing Lucien in for a kiss that turned passionate quickly.
Goddess, I hope they have sex.
Aeon ran his hand through Lucien's hair, making me rub my thighs together.
“You don’t have to hide behind the shelves rubbing your thighs together, Kit Kat, you could always join,” Lucien said, turning towards me.
My cheeks heated up from the embarrassment of being caught.
“I think I might want to watch again,” I said, as I walked up to them.
“Again?” Lucien looked confused staring at Aeon and me.
“Kitten here likes to watch. She saw us having sex in your bedroom a few months ago.” Aeon smirked.
“I couldn’t help it, both of you together were like my own live porn,” I said, putting my bag down on the table.
“Porn?” Aeon asked, looking confused.
“Yeah, you know magazines, dvd’s, websites, that show sex,” I said, thinking I shouldn’t have opened this can of worms.
“What are magazines?”
“What are DVDs and a website?”
I laughed at their unusual innocence about the present day. If we ever got out of here, I couldn’t wait to show them how far we had come from their time.
