the awaiting sky. As the two stood embraced floating on their aura’s Ada looked around at the night sky. The full moon kissed the stars. She had never seen the earth in such a way. It was the most beautiful and perfect moment. She looked at Dane who hadn’t taken his eyes from her.
    “It’s beautiful up here” she said breathlessly.
    Dane smiled and nodded his head.
    “You are beautiful” he said.
    Ada dropped her eyes and smiled. He reached up and touched her chin, lifting her face to his. She felt a surge of energy as his lips touched hers, his tongue gently darting into her mouth, exploring. Ada opened her lips to allow him deeper access, moaning as he pulled her closer still. She wrapped her legs around his waist as he pushed his hand up through her hair. Ada ran her hands up and down his arms, feeling his muscles tense with his movements. Dane slowed their passionate kiss and they began to lower to the ground.
    “Well. That was unexpected” Ada said once she had her feet planted on the ground.
    Dane smiled and kissed the top of her head. Behind them Ada sensed a presence and instantly sent her feelers out. Dane realised her alarm and frowned.
    “What is it?” he said quietly.
    “We aren’t alone” Ada replied.
    Dane nodded and took her hand. Ada continued to send her feelers out, suddenly she was able to pinpoint the presence. Demon. She clasped Dane’s hand tighter and materialised a dagger in her free hand. Dane noticed and frowned down at her.
    “Do we need to fight?” he said.
    Ada shrugged her shoulders as she tuned her ears to the movement of the Demon through the undergrowth.
    “Just in case” she said in a whisper.
    Dane nodded and materialised a sword in his free hand.
    “More than one?” he questioned.
    Ada shook her head. She could only sense the solitary presence. Suddenly to the left of where they stood a roar echoed through the woods. Ada crouched ready to lunge forward; Dane jumped back his sword held in position, when a black blur sped past them. The roar turned to a scream of pain. Ada sent her feelers out again. Kade. Ada sighed with relief. Dane stood poised frowning.
    “It’s my Father” she said.
    Dane nodded and stepped closer to her.
    “How did he know?” he asked.
    “We are psychically connected” she answered.
    Kade slowly entered the clearing as he wiped blood from his lower lip. He came towards where Dane and Ada stood, touching her shoulders.
    “Are you alright?” he asked, concern marking his face.
    Ada nodded and gave him a smile.
    “I’m fine. Thank you” she said leaning into Kade’s chest as he embraced her.
    “What are you doing out here?” he asked, glaring at Dane.
    “We were practicing my magic. I need to learn how to use the amulet if we have any hope of defeating Abaddon” she said.
    Kade sighed and ran his hand through his hair as he nodded.
    ‘I know. But with him’ Kade said into her mind.
    Ada looked over her shoulder at Dane who seemed oblivious to what her Father had just asked her, as he packed his bag up.
    ‘Who else can teach me?’ she asked looking back to her Father.
    Kade sighed again and gently touched her shoulder.
    ‘I know. I just don’t trust him’ he spoke.
    Ada nodded and put her head on her Father’s chest. She didn’t know that she could trust Dane either. However, she wasn’t sure that she had a choice. There was no one else that could teach her the amulet, Morrigan hadn’t been taught the magic it contained, because she wasn’t to be the Queen Witch. Her aunt was a strong witch and knew many spells, but she wasn’t able to instruct Ada on how to work the magic and power contained in the amulet.
    “Alright well I think you should both go. It’s not safe here” Kade said, stroking Ada’s hair.
    She turned and Dane nodded his head, lifting the bag onto his shoulder. On the ride home they were both silent. Dane seemed to be brooding over something. Ada couldn’t be sure that he was angry or whether he was
