never been so welcome. When we have our full I go back to the chicken and begin breaking off pieces of meat from the bone. I toss them toward Fenrus and he catches them with his mouth. We're halfway through the bucket when Mika returns with our things. I'm embarrassed at how much food Fenrus and I have polished off and try to slowly finish chewing what's in my mouth.
After dropping the bags onto a nearby couch Mika walks over to us and pulls a piece of chicken for herself and begins to eat. Between chews Mika says, "This probably would have tasted better last night when it was still hot but I figured you'd probably be so hungry you wouldn't mind if it was cold or not."
I become confused again. "You bought this for us last night, before we even got here?"
"Yeah. Grandmamma told me that we were going to be getting company and that I needed to stock up on food. I wasn't sure what you like to eat so I got a little of everything. Have you tried the pudding yet? There's this chocolatier nearby who makes the best chocolate pudding. You'll swear you've never had anything as good."
"So it was Anna that told you where we'd be?"
"Of course. She's the one who told me where to wait for you and around what time you'd be there. She's a really gifted Seer. I don't have that gift but it runs strongly in the family. She told me that I will be too late to stop Tobias from being hurt but that I needed to help you stop the man in black and get the both of you back here as soon as possible. I have to say, I was a little shocked when I saw you in full werewolf form. I've never seen one before. To be honest, it was a little scary. I could tell though that you were trying to protect Tobias so I bit the bullet and jumped in to help. You have no idea how afraid I was that you were going to bite my head off and slash me to little pieces."
"Uh, thanks...I guess. To be honest all this werewolf business is pretty new to me too. The first time anything like that has happened was last night. You don't have to worry about the crazy savage stuff though. I'm guessing that's all made up for the movies. When I transform my adrenaline is definitely high but I think like a normal person. Actually, as a witch it's pretty great since I'm able to tap into the nature around me for anything I might need."
"Wow, that's pretty cool. Your aura was pretty massive though. As soon as you changed I imagine any sensitive witches in a 10 mile radius probably picked up on your magical energy. That was another reason why I wanted to get us out of there as soon as possible."
Her words hit me hard in the stomach. Was I responsible for putting Tobias and Fenrus in danger? Am I doing it now? Visions of several covens, including Malik's, storming through the doors dance through my head and suddenly my appetite disappears. I'd never forgive myself if something were to happen to them because of me. Still, something else is now troubling me. I was near a fully changed werewolf just last night and I didn't sense anything until I was a few feet away from him. I didn't even know he was there until I saw him with my own eyes. How is it I'm giving off noticeable attention but he isn't?
"Mika, earlier today, did you sense any magical energy from the guy in black?"
She stops to think a moment then says, "Not really. His aura was very subtle. Yours on the other hand was pretty bright."
"And now?", I ask.
"No, not that much. You have a different magical presence about you but now that you're human again, it's not that noticeable. Why do you ask?"
"The other night I came across the guy in black in full werewolf form and only sensed limited magic from him. The cat sleeping upstairs was the only other person able to see it too."
"Ah." Mika gets a look of understanding and says, "Cats have a special sight all their own. They can sometimes see things even witches overlook. They're very special in that regard. That's one of the many reasons why they're so respected in the Wiccan
