A moment later, his voice slipped into my mind.“Why don’t you just use your power to heal her?”My jaw tightened. “I can’t.”“What? Why?”I glanced
Elena’s POV“Oh, Elena! Elena, please, you have to help me!” Tears streamed down Nellie’s face, and she clutched her leg, which was still gushing blood. “Please! I’ll explain later!”I looked at my companions, whose looks of confusion mirrored my own. I hadn’t seen Nellie in ages, and especially not
