Chapter: 26

No, she didn’t start running. She bolted! She didn’t get tired, she felt like she was only walking. She kept on going for a good while. She wanted to test her limits but she saw no end to them! She stopped at the pond where she saw someone. She repressed her powers and snuck closer. Her heartbeat quickened as she saw it was Ryan. She knew Caleigh was right: talking to him was inevitable. She took a step closer but decided on a direct approach instead. She didn’t call his name. She wanted him to notice her. Without turning around, he started talking to her.

“You have grown.”

“How did you…”

“I sensed your power.”

“Does it mean everybody knows now?” she asked scared.

“No.” he turned around “It’s only because we… we have started bonding. That’s the only reason. Are you repressing your powers again?”

“I am.” she nodded.<
