Had anything ever felt so wrong and yet as though it was meant to be? My entire body burned with the joining of my power to Ameline's as her darkness raced around my edges, my light setting her on fire.
I felt the vampires appear, but only peripherally. Knew Iepa and Trinol had gone. Didn't matter we were alone because we weren't alone, Ameline and I.
We had each other and the multiple souls we carried. My vampire hissed at her budding undead spirit, my demon snarling at her young fire. Even Shaylee hummed unhappily at the small child who was the Sidhe within my nemesis. But our reactions to each other didn't matter. Not while the maji power, dark and light, combined and bonded us together.
