One day, I will have to decide to help myself. And only I will be capable of doing so.

Magick is based on faith. It is the belief that the part of the Gods inside of us is strong enough to do godly work.

I'm an eclectic assortment of power and pride. I don't need rules or labels. Though if there was one I would lay claim to every time, it is as simple as it is misunderstood. I am a witch.

But I learned something from it. From losing him. Even though I found my soulmate, that doesn't mean that I'm incapable of falling in love with someone else. It just means they're going to have to try harder for my attention.

A friend was someone who knew every dark part of a person, and still liked them for it.

Wait!" I called. Too loud. All around me, the trees seemed to be listening, injured at hearing such a loud voice when they had been used to whispers and silence.

Silently, as was our habit, Nathan and I walked to the end of Old Grove Road where a lake was dug into the earth, holding mystery upon mystery beneath its glassy surface.

From the moment I said it, I could feel the butterflies in my stomach. My Ryder instincts and my Ryder conscience needed to get it together. One refused to let me back down, while the other condemned my actions in not doing so.

Despite what was happening, Victoria loved Alyssa.Loved her enough to kill her.

When the entire town was within my grasp, I sank a pulse into every life-force.The Witch of Old Grove Road had returned, and now all of Cedar Creek knew it.
