Clarissa
Clarissa and Blake sat on his bed, talking. When she mentioned Mimi, Blake asked who he was. Well, if he was going to find out how crazy she was, now was a good time, right?
“Well, I normally tell people that he is my imaginary friend.” She admitted, her ears turning red. “But when I do that, Mimi gets angry with me. He says he is not imaginary.”
“So do you see him now?” Blake wondered, motioning to the room.
“I don’t see him. I'm not crazy. I just hear him.” She acknowledged quietly that both ideas seemed crazy.
Blake pushed the hair back behind her ear. His touch was so tender, it made butterflies erupt in her stomach.
“Is it po

Stefan Stefan limped through the streets on his way back to the Inn. His body was sore. Wounds squished blood with every step. He knew what he needed was to get back to the Inn. There he could rest. The idea of sleep dominated his thoughts. If he were a weaker man, he would find a dark street corner to nap in. But if he were to do that, the sun would rise on his sleeping form. It was the gargoyle curse that turned them to stone during the day. But Stefan was only half gargoyle. So the curse only activated when he slept in direct sunlight. It was why he always woke before daybreak. A voice in his head encouraged him to find a quiet corner. In his stone form, he would heal quicker and awake

Clarissa These were the woods from the vision the purple sage gave Clarissa. She handed her baby to her beloved right there by that tree. But she did not see herself now. The woods were eerily quiet, as if the wildlife knew there was something terrible about to happen. Clarissa didn’t know why she felt that way, but trepidation filled her. The tenseness in the air made it hard to breathe. Her baby’s father dashed frantically past her, running so fast that Clarissa couldn’t keep up. The forest melted away behind them as they ran. But he did not slow until a small cabin appeared before them. It was no castle. But it would be cozy and warm for two people- three with the baby. They could have a happy little life here.

Clarissa The nuns all greeted Clarissa with excitement. She felt like a new toy they were passing around. She wouldn’t remember all of their names. But the petite woman that stopped her yesterday was Celendra. Celendra smiled warmly. “While we have you, we would each like to teach you something about magic.” “Really?” Clarissa asked eagerly. She had not been able to learn as much on the road with Stefan as she had hoped. Bertha nodded and another nun cut in enthusiastically. “What is your element?” Clarissa laughed. “Well, Stefan said that the beam I used on accident when trying to defend myself was life energy.”

Clarissa Centra explained that before the celestials could make magic available to everyone, they needed a powerful nexus stone. Celestials placed it at the center of the world. The nexus stone strengthened the world’s inhabitants' connection with the elements. Then, when they needed to remove the old king from power, the celestials delivered a mighty weapon to the men that were to become the onyx sages—these weapons attached to their souls. It allowed the magic to flow through them without resistance. It fused the sages with their closest element. Using magic no longer used the same amount of energy. Suddenly, they could cast spells that would have killed them prior. This weapon was a huge advantage. But in the wrong hands, they would be devasta

Clarissa Panic rose swiftly through Clarissa as she faced the monk pressing her against the stone wall. She didn’t know what he had in store for her, but she would not let it happen. “Let me go.” She growled and pushed against his chest. He didn’t move. She closed her eyes and focused on her emotions. If she had to use her magic to get out of this, she’d have to concentrate. “Brother Compton, what are you doing?” Brother Melchior’s voice echoed through the hallway. Clarissa opened her eyes to see the young monk turn towards Brother Melchior. She allowed herself a little hope that the older monk was here to save her. “Just teaching a nun

Brother Melchior Brother Melchior grabbed Brother Casper's arm before he could enter the meeting room. “This is the chance that we have been waiting for.” He whispered, indicating their plan to Brother Casper. Brother Casper nodded his agreement. “I would say so. We do not have time to discuss this. Let intuition guide us, brother.” Brother Melchior let go and followed him into the room. Everyone gathered around the circular table. Brother Melchior took his place in the hollowed-out center. He listened to the murmurings around him for a minute, gathering his powers. Then he raised his hands in the air and spoke.

Clarissa Clarissa stared into the dark eyes of Centra. Her heartbeat was unnaturally fast. If what the girl said was true, they wouldn’t need King Righ. But of course, it came with a warning. As long as Clarissa was still alive, the pendant could be retrieved intact. The creatures and other pursuers that she had not known were on her trail would kill her to get it back. Its current placement protected Clarissa’s life, and she would not be able to lose it. She could still offer the pendant the purple sage had given her. Try to trick the werecats into believing they had the key. But if King Righ had known it was not the necklace she wore, then so would the werecats.

Blake Valentine went ahead to find out where Clarissa was. The remaining shadow warriors gathered around Blake as he stormed the monastery. As they moved, monks would try to stop them, and his warriors would stay behind to fight. It allowed Blake to move unhindered. There was going to be no stopping him. It was time they left the monastery. King Righ would be pissed about what the monks were doing to Clarissa. As he moved with purpose and determination, he knew telling her everything would take courage, but it would prove his affection for her. There was no reason good enough to hide his truth from her.
