My Shadow Mate
I look up at him.
“What was that?” I ask, and he smiles at me, the fire around his irises melting away.
“Shadow fire.” He answers softly, then closes his eyes once again.
“I’ve never seen it before,” my tone matches his. “Have you always been able to do that?”
“No, it’s a recent development, and by recent, I mean three years. I’m trying to get a hang of it, but I haven’t been able to control it. I control shadows, manipulate them as I please. Everything that is a shadow is mine, but shadow fire is difficult to wield, and it’s taking far longer to control, even longer than controlling souls; people.”
