All Chapters of A Kissing Spell: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

I came back home and sat by the kitchen table trying to comprehend everything I had learnt. I now knew that Samil was coming from a very powerful family, a toxic family, where he was at a constant war with the other family members. Knowing more facts about his life I could finally understand his cold and calculative behavior. A big part of his story sounded like a gloomy drama script, but if that were what his life looked like, one could consider it a miracle that he didn't become a complete sociopath… Another piece of knowledge I gained was about the magical seal. A curse that was slowly taking its owner's life away, and that was making the owner immune… to witchcraft. Which means Samil was completely immune to MY witchcraft! No wonder my spell didn't work… But the real problem was, if the simple charm wasn't of use, then what about the kissing spell…?! I ran to my bedroom to bring the huge book my Grandma gave me, and then came back to the kitchen with it. I figure

Samil was merciful enough to turn his eyes away from me to make a call. If he gazed like that one more second I would surely burst out laughing hysterically, or I would have a heart attack.“It's done. I have the last proof I needed. Prepare what I asked for, Elijah,” he gave a command on the phone and ended the call smiling wickedly.“I guess something good happened…Sir…” I commented nervously.“You just helped with my next goal, Ms. Eder… Your work, was the last thing I needed to fire the CFO my uncle previously placed here,” he stated staring intensively at me again.His sight made my heart beat faster, I felt like I was naked in front of him. I turned my eyes away to regain my composure. I smiled awkwardly, desperately trying to hide how distressed I was.“Remember! You have something to tell him! Do it now!” I encouraged myself in my head.I gathered my strength, then

Samil kept gazing at me, his sight was firm, constant, and… unbearable. I couldn't tell what was hidden behind that gaze, but the insensitivity of it made my heart pound and hands shake. I almost dropped my notebook because of it. “Why does this elevator go so slow?! I will die in here if the door don't open in like three seconds!” I went frantic inside my mind. When the door opened I almost collapsed getting off that elevator. I started breathing heavily while holding a hand on my chest, making it impossible for him not to notice my state. He smirked and walked slowly through the corridor leading to conference room, and I… seriously wanted to kill him for messing me up so much. We entered the room together, everyone bowed to him, greeting him, and ignoring me. It felt incredibly awkward, until suddenly… “Kass! Great to see you… Ms. Secretary!” Grace called happily from the back of the room waving her hand. She surprised me, with all that had

Another day at work ended. I sat on the bus home feeling slightly upset that I didn't accomplish what I wanted. Samil was still in the dark, unknowing that I met his family, nor that I knew about his curse. I had to do something about it fast, yet I feared that with this knowledge, his attitude towards me would change. “What if I lose his trust, after I tell him…?” I wondered nervously. He told me once he was hiring me that he made his choice because I had no connections to his uncle and step-brother… Now, I met them both. Even though I wasn't planning on contacting neither of them, how could I tell him that in the way he would believe me…? He certainly wasn't the person who gave his trust easily. Perhaps, I was being paranoid, but could anyone blame me for feeling this way in my peculiar situation? I came back to an empty house. Grandma went to some unknown place to find a solution that would allow me to live beyond my 30th birthday. I wished she didn't have

In the evening of that day, when I began acknowledging how much magic I had inside me Samil sent a message saying he was giving me the rest of the week off. I was surprised by the level of his indulgence, I was ready to go to work the next day… but that way I could use this time to learn more about the power within me. I started studying another chapter of the “The book of spells”. I soon found out that it truly was a kind of “introduction to magic”. There were many basic techniques and methods for concentration and meditation in it. I started following simple exercises and soon realized that I was actually good at it. Everything that was written there came to me naturally. On the second day of my studying I was able to blow off candles standing five meters away from them, merely using a hand gesture. I could also form spilled on the table water into flat symbols and signs without touching it. Unfortunately, putting water back to the glass didn't work that well… I no
