Chapter 0549 I turned and carried Elva toward the deck. Julian stayed behind, looking down at the mess that was once Elva's castle.
1 had thought he would have followed me. | felt bad now. | should have said goodbye. But, hauling Elva around, | didn't really want to go back and forth.
Julian would understand. We'd catch up again later.
Up on the deck, Veronica had moved into the shade near the bar to continue reading. The shade seemed like a good idea, so | carried Elva over there.
"How's it going, Veronica?" | asked as we came close.
"Anything interesting in there?" Veronica glanced up from the book, the first time | had seen her do so all day. "It's..." Her voice trailed when her gaze shifted to Elva. "What happened?" *She kicked my castle," Elva sniffled.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Who did?" *Bridget," | said, and when Veronica looked back at me, |
gently shook my head, indicating that we probably shouldn't talk about this right now.
Veronica nodded. She understood. Then she glanced around. Reaching out, she grabbed a napkin off the bar. It was a sturdy kind of napkin, the kind that kept its shape as it was folded.
Veronica folded it, origami, until it was a cute little bird.
*Hold out your hands," she said to Elva.
Elva did as Veronica asked. Content belong to NévelDrama. Org.
Veronica placed the folded bird in her hands. She closed her eyes.
I blinked. Elva gasped. | looked down at Elva's hand and she was now holding the bird. Veronica had teleported it! She was getting better at that. She'd moved the bird with so little time and effort. She didn't seem winded at all, unlike when she had first begun trying to teleport objects.
"That was amazing, Veronica," | said. "Wasn't it, Elva?" Elva held the folded bird with both hands. Her eyes were wide. "Hold did you do that?"
Veronica smiled a little, at the corner of her mouth. For a smile from Veronica, it was huge. She was practically beaming.
Elva laughed. "Let me down, Mommy. | want to play.”
I lowered her down. Elva began to run across the deck, lifting and lowering the bird as though it was flying.
Veronica continued to smile a moment, before it dimmed.
She looked at me. "There's something I'd like to try, Piper.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIf it's okay with you." | trusted Veronica with my life, but when she said it like that, | felt a little worried. "If it's not dangerous..." "It's not." Veronica tumed to Elva. "Elva, come here a moment. | have another trick." "A trick?" Elva said excitedly. She clutched her folded bird to her chest and ran closer.
Veronica directed Elva to stand right in front of her. She placed her hand on Elva's forehead, and then closed her eyes. Under her breath, Veronica said a few words in a language | didn't understand. Merfolk maybe? | wasn't sure.
Elva leaned on one foot to the other. She seemed impatient and bored. She likely wanted the magic trick to be instant. For a three-year-old, even two minutes could
feel like forever.
She didn't have to wait much longer than that, however.
Because all of the sudden, Elva began to glow. It wasn't just her skin, but like an aura all around her, glowing purple and bright.
Elva held up her hands and laughed hard.
"Wow, Veronica!" | said excitedly. She could make people glow now? What kind of magic was this? | thought Veronica would be pleased at a successful magic trick, but when she opened her eyes and took in the sight, she wasn't happy at all.
Instead, her face grew grave with concern.
And my stomach twisted unpleasantly in response.
What was it about Elva glowing purple that would have her look so dire?
