Apex Predator

Karica's POV

It was a lot to take in, me being part witch, having a unique aura. These powers were inside me all along so why did I never feel them before?

I had met witches before, why didn't they see my aura or tell me about it? There were so many questions and so few answers. I was leaving here even more confused.

"You good?" Xynathius quietly asked, seeing me lost as we trudged back to his car. Anxiety was rolling off of him and I could sense it through the mate bond. I was guessing whatever Gwardia told him was not pleasant.

"Yeah, just trying to adjust to the fact that I am some hybrid rainbow unicorn, minus the horn," I placed my hand on my forehead with my index finger protruding out to indicate where the horn should be.

And his plump lips pursed, the wrinkles on his forehead disappeared as the edges of his eyes crinkled and a hearty laugh escaped his throat as he clutched his stomach and bent over.

Damn! How enigmatic and heart-warming was his laugh, almost contagious.
