Chương 117: Chapter 117: Unwelcome Guests

I took two minutes to change my clothes and spin my hair into a ponytail before pounding back down the stairs.

To find my grandmother standing next to Quaid in the dark kitchen.

"How did she escape?" I was about to lead her back to her room all the while thinking I did not have time for this drama right now, when she reached out for me and touched my hand.

It was like a light turned on in my body, power flushing through me. The feeling of it was infinitely familiar, a power I'd known my whole life. Not just because she was my grandmother, either. Her magic was connected to me in a way I couldn't begin to understand. I felt a rush of green magic under the blue, the touch of the Sidhe, and wondered as it spread out like a thin shield where it was coming from.

Even my demon fed on it. When Gram was done, I felt fantastic.

She sagged a little, Quaid catching her before she could fall. But she smiled at me, patting my cheek with her thin fingers.
