about Quentin’s height, with bulky large arms and those wide yellow eyes, wearing leather pants and jacket. A few tattoos were poking out near his collarbone. When I glanced at my best friend, she looked wounded, pressing her hand to her bloody lips.
    Craig narrowed his eyes at me and pushed Kelsie away.
    ‘Who the fuck is that skinny fairy, Kel?’ he asked, licking his lips, hovering his eyes over my body.
    ‘No one. Some chick who shouldn’t be fucking with our business. Tell her to fuck off,’ Kelsie shouted, staring at me like she was ready to strangle me. I had no idea what she was so pissed off about. She was in trouble and I couldn’t not react. Craig was moving towards me fast with that nasty smile on his face. I called out for a fresh wave of magic, and it came emerging through my cells, corrupting the air.
    ‘Kel, stay where you are!’ I screamed, lifting my hand, pushing out sparks of white light. It didn’t do anything to Craig, my energy rebellious again.
    ‘Oh, so you know the whore?’ Craig asked with amusement in his tone. ‘Maybe you want to play with both of us?’
    He moved faster than I anticipated. Before I could even blink, he clenched his arms around me, securing my hands behind. I tried to wiggle away, but his grip was powerful, his face inches away from mine. He wheezed a breath, inhaling my soaring fear.
    ‘Craig, she is no one, just some girl that I talked to inside the meeting,’ Kelsie yelled, but her ex-boyfriend wasn’t buying her lies. I held his attention, hearing in his thoughts of how much he wanted to fuck me. Ignoring the gag reflex, I dodged away, but my movement only made him more excited and aroused. He laughed, spraying me with spit.
    ‘Let me go, you piece of trash!’ I shouted.
    My magic finally shot through my spine, charging my fingers with abnormal speed.
    Craig laughed and pulled me towards his large chest, grabbing my arse. ‘Feisty, hmm? I like it rough, but I don’t think I have time for you, fairy. The whore is more imp—’
    The energy poured out of me in a rush that left me a little startled and drained. My breath came short and I felt the jolts on my skin, magic twitching instead of flowing. I started whispering a spell in my head, the one Tron taught me during our last session, in order to take control of it.
    I tensed my muscles, calling out the light, raising the power of my source. Then the light jetted away from my skin, pulling me away from Craig’s body so unexpectedly that I landed on the wall. Craig flew across the room, his face twisted with anger. He crashed on the ground so hard that the whole floor shook. He roared with rage but was back on his feet straight away, as if the impact didn’t have the slightest effect on him.
    ‘You have to try a little harder. You’re too weak to fight me,’ he growled, laughing.
    I stared at my hands, clenching my teeth. Craig was a shifter, so I had to blast out my strongest, most vicious protection spell, but he was coming for me fast. Blood dripped from his forehead, and his eyes began to glow with bright golden light.
    ‘Julia! Run! You need to get out of here now, before he kills you!’ Kelsie screamed.
    Sick and horrible fear seized me fast, tangling up my tongue. My legs were numb and I’d just lost my slim chance of getting the hell out of here when I stood up to fight him. A chill of adrenaline followed after the anticipation of the fact that death was approaching.
    He is pissed and he is going to rip my head off.
    Yep, this negative thought wasn’t doing me any favours then. Memories from the training vanished and now I was on my own. Kelsie was bleeding, but she was shifting. The air was so thick with spells that it was difficult to follow what was happening. Her muscles were splitting, bones began to grow. Within moments she turned into a large black rottweiler dog. She caught Craig’s attention just before he got to me.
    ‘Come on, show me what you got, whore. I can’t take you with
