The Magical Word of Maddie. The Red Queen

The next morning, Maddie woke up much too late for school. She had slept wonderfully, warm, and with an intense sense of security.Maddie had looked briefly at the sleeping Raven. She still wasn't sure why he had so many deep scars on his body.And she was worried about that. His energy chilled when she asked him about it.She got up carefully, slipped into her own room.Took a quick shower, got dressed, and without breakfast, she went on her way to school in a hurry.She had to walk because her bicycle was still at school.For it was not intended to use magic in the world of the ordinary if it was not necessary. Just as she walked out of Stationsstreet, she heard a familiar creak and squeak behind her. It was Buddy on the bike, pedaling quickly.‘Jump on the back!’ he shouted while cycling.She did, although the construction of his bike gave little confidence.'Overslept?’ he concluded. 'Me too'. So co

Raven had already left when Maddie woke up.After she showered, she cast a spell. The amulet showed that Raven was safe wherever he might be.He hadn't said anything about his destination. Maddie decided to assume that Raven could take good care of himself.Everyone sat at the breakfast table including Floyd.‘Are you and your boyfriend okay?’ he asked with an amused smile.Even Esmee frowned at the sound in his voice.‘Yes, fine,’ Maddie replied curtly.‘Okay, have you taken your elixir?’ Floyd's voice was sarcastic.Esmee opened her mouth to blurt something out, but Rodolf's gaze kept her from doing so.However, Floyd's attention was already on Moon.‘This beautiful lady and I are going away for a while,’ he said loudly. Floyd kissed Moon's hand, ‘We need a little bit of excitement and romance.’Moon smiled with flushes on her cheeks.&lsq

The days after that event, was dominated by the Christmas holidays. The decoration of the tree, the celebration of Yule, the longest night.Everyday things.It was nice that everything was somewhat in balance again.Moon had almost recovered from everything she had been through, but Maddie had the feeling that Omem had lost resilience.The glee had disappeared from her eyes.Maddie also realized that she was much more powerful than her grandmother, perhaps stronger than most of the magical creatures she knew herself. There was also a lot of accountability involved. She was glad she had Raven to share it with.She felt some sort of unrest in Raven as if he was upset about something, but she wouldn't insist. She knew he would cut himself off from her completely. And that was the last thing she wanted. She had to be patient, he would come up with the story if he thought it necessary.Maddie felt that the energy she carried had increased.

Raven sat lost in thought by the large fireplace in the library, the only place that had coziness and atmosphere. He had removed all his things from the Stationsstreet. He had heard how glad everyone was that Maddie had returned healthy when he had reached the top of the stairs.But he too had heard the doubts and fears that had gone over the table about him and his vague magic. He knew he had done the best he could do. Getting away from the people he loved most, leaving them alone so that there was no disagreement between them. Maddie would get enough support from the people around her, who were also dear to him.It was better for her to live without that pressure that gave his magic in a community.Raven tried to ignore the deep feeling of pain that told him how much he longed for Maddie, how much he was connected to her.It would surely improve in the long run. All he had to do was wait. Sing it out as long.Raven stared into the fire.He

The Christmas holidays were almost over. Maddie made more and more plans to live with Raven. As a result, more and more concerns appeared in his bright blue eyes.He had told her to stay with Moon, for her school, her education in the magic square. But she only saw the benefits of the castle. No magic, peace, security, no-hassle, normal life for her. And most importantly, be with him.Wolf had spoken to him about it a number of times. He had said that they had no solution for the Zaeafranen problem for the time being. This made Raven even more concerned.What if they bothered Maddie again? She was bombarded again, forcing her to reclaim her deeper magic? How could she ever experience what it was like to live without that burden?It kept haunting Raven's mind. It was best if she stayed in Stationsstreet, continued her life, perhaps without him.Raven had cast an additional protection spell over the new house, the same kind that Maddie had made for M
