Chapter 147

　　Maia

　　As Kadva and I reach the bottom of the stairs, arm in arm, I immediately notice Magnus isn't in a pleasant mood. However, he was happy when I spoke to him earlier in the hall. So, something must have happened since then. He stands leaning against a beam with arms crossed and a scowl across his face. Alec gives Magnus an odd look, wondering why he is in such a temperamental mood.

　　I mind-link Magnus, 'Is everything okay? You seem a little angry about something?'

　　'Why would I be angry, Nina?' He replies sarcastically, 'Is there something I should know about?' He scoffs.

　　I give him a confused look and realise everyone is watching Magnus and I pull faces at each other through mind-link. I clear my throat and focus on the pack. I can worry about Magnus later.

　　'Are we ready to celebrate the midsummer solstice?' I shout.
