"Holy Moly, Lena! Is that Aiden Crooks?" Renee exclaimed as I entered the room.

I nodded then swirled back to Aiden who was in his car.

He had a smirk on his face which meant he had been listening to our conversations.

"I wonder how I would get used to his supernatural abilities," I murmured to myself.

I had read a bit on the history of the Crooks family from the books I had borrowed in his library. Though it was still ambiguous, I understood some of the things about werewolves whilst reading the book.

I lifted a brow, and she shrugged her shoulders before continuing.

"The locals too have been filled with a lot of rumours lately."

I swatted the hand he stretched out to gripped mine away whilst scowling at him.

Aiden stared at me with searching blue eyes. I stared back at him.

He seemed to be quite shaken because of whatever might have happened.

Still, I was somewhat perplexed because If I had magic, I would know. Also, it would have manifested long ago.

Though I had often had dreams of me casting some spells which were absurd, hearing it come from Aiden sounded even more ridiculous.

My brain was still fuzzy from the narration Aiden had made. I burst into a peal of laughter and was on my way to hysteria when Aiden gripped my shoulder whilst stroking my back as I began to wheeze.

Aiden released me after a while but he was still close by.
