thought you hated each other.”

“Dragan was a demented aberration—half sorcerer, half werewolf, driven

mad by a dark split in his soul. The pack came to us for help. We thought it

could be a new beginning, but Alistair Laurent, Jaxson’s father, betrayed us

not long after we brought Dragan down. A treachery so deep that it still cuts

my bones.”

With a sharp motion, she turned me to face her, eyes blazing with

unbridled fury. “Never trust a wolf. When it comes down to it, they will

always choose pack over justice, pack over truth, pack over anyone else—and

that includes you.” Her shoulders dropped as she gave a heavy sigh. “That,

more than anything, is why I don’t like you working with Jaxson. He may be

helping you now, but one day, he will have to make a choice, and you’ll be

on the losing end. I guarantee it.”

My gut twisted. Some part of my soul knew it was true.

“You can only ever rely on yourself, Savannah. That’s why you need to

master your power.”

I’d been practicing sorcery with Aunt Laurel every day, but I couldn’t

manage too much yet. So far, I’d found that I could release bursts of power,

control shadows, and snuff candles. It seemed so small compared to the blood

sorcerer, compared to what Casey and my aunt could do…but it was more

than I’d ever imagined two weeks ago.

I looked down at my right hand and drew in a little of my power. It

appeared as dark wisps of shadow that trickled over my skin and stung like

ice water. “I’m not even really sure I understand what my magic is.”

“You need to know who you are to understand what your magic is, and

what your magic is to understand who you are. Right now, you’re searching

for both. That’s why we’re going to accelerate your training.”

The last time my aunt had wanted to accelerate my training, she’d tried

sucking my magic out with a doohickey that, if dialed up to full strength,

could consume half of Magic Side.
