Chapter 12

“You brought me back.” His words lingered in my head on repeat. I had been up the entire night thinking about them and him. What was I even doing? The idea of something happening between Carson and I was a complete fantasy. Even if we wanted to be together, which I still wasn’t sure that he did, we literally couldn’t. I mean not unless I wanted to renounce my magic and he wanted to be beheaded. Those types of consequences for a high-school crush didn’t seem worth it. But was it just a little crush? Maybe to him. But not to me. I was falling for him. Every time I saw him, every time we spoke, I felt myself in a constant battle. Between what I wanted, needed; and what I was obligated to do. And I needed answers.
