章 227: Book 4 : Chapter 76

Ella's POV

An hour later, Max, Milly, Leo and I were stood amongst the tall pine trees of the forest by the edge of one of the pack's many large lakes. We were a mile from the village Milly and Max lived in and we'd seen no one.

"We're alone," Leo said after returning from taking a quick walk around our surroundings, checking no one was around.

Max stood with his arms folded and a look of steel as Milly turned out towards the lake. She took a deep breath and glanced across the blue water, which reflected the sparkling rays of mid day sun. She then closed her eyes and brought her hand to the amulet.

For a few moments, there was nothing. Just complete silence as Milly stood motionlessly, holding her eyes tightly shut.

She was concentrating hard, I could tell.

Then, the most amazing things began to happen.
