CHAPTER 9

  Elena's POV

  My mind went through flashbacks of how I ran around the quarter as a kid and Daniel chased after me and shielded me from my imaginary demons. He was fiercely loyal, overprotective, and always prim and proper. One day I will grieve for him, but first I had to accept he was really gone.

  "It is boundary spell and this is definitely a witch's doing," Dad said as he strolled towards us with an entourage of the army to inspect the incident.

  "Poor hot dude, I always thought I would have the opportunity to have mind-blowing sex with him." Suzy sniffed and hugged herself when a chilly wind blew past.

  "Is that all you can think about now? Respect the dead, Suzy." Hilda hissed with clenched teeth and began to pace around with determination.
