just a little shaken about the Demon. Ada could feel her exhaustion seeping in to every pore of her being. When this whole thing was over she planned to sleep for at least a week, she thought. As they pulled into Ada’s driveway, Dane took her hand.
“Thank you for trusting me enough to teach you to use the amulet” he said.
Ada turned and smiled, squeezing his hand gently. He leaned over and gave her a small kiss on the corner of her mouth.
“I will see you soon beautiful Witch” he said with a smile.
Ada smiled as she opened the car door. She stood at her front door and watched as Dane drove up the road. A wild cat leapt from the tree by her door and swirled itself around her legs, she instinctively reached down and stroked its head.
“I don’t know what I’m doing Frankie” she said.
Frankie materialised into human form and wrapped her into his arms.
“It will all work out. Now go to bed” he said taking her keys from her and unlocking the door.
Ada felt like she was asleep before her head even hit the pillow.

“A candle it’s light into the darkness. In a nasty world, so shines the good deed. Make sure the fortune, that you seek is the fortune you need” Ben Harper
Ada woke with a start, disorientated and unsure of where she was. The room was dark and she could sense a presence other than hers. She instantly sent her feelers out and her hands began to tingle as the power danced around her fingers ready to attack. Ada narrowed her eyes, allowing them to adjust; she could sense the presence was in her room. Ada roved her eyes through the room and was able to make out the shadow of her wardrobe, her desk and the door that was slightly ajar. She scanned the room without moving her head; she didn’t want to draw attention to herself. A movement flashed by the window. The room was struck in a bright light as Ada’s power left her hand. She heard the grunt as her power bolt hit the target, within three steps she was on top of the being lurking in her room; a dagger conjured up in her hand. Ada stood over the body that cowered between her legs. She roared and raised her hand, ready to strike.
“Ada stop” the being spoke.
Ada’s hand stopped within millimetres of the beings throat as she recognised the voice.
“Travis; what the hell?” Ada screamed.
She leapt off Travis and went to the lamp on her bedside table flicking it on and brightening the room again. Travis stayed cowered on the floor beneath the window.
“I nearly killed you” she screamed, panic began to overtake her body and she could feel her hands start to tremble and sweat bead on her forehead.
Her front door burst open and Kade flew into Ada’s room. His teeth were bared, his eyes glowed red and his face was contorted in anger. Travis screamed in terror, which brought Kade’s attention directly upon him. Kade was on top of Travis within a blink of the eye. He picked Travis up by the scruff of his shirt. Travis was on his tip toes, shaking like a leaf.
“What the fuck are you doing in my daughter’s room?” Kade roared in his face, his teeth lengthening further.
The rancid smell of urine hit their nostrils, as Travis let his bladder go.
“Oh for fucks sake” Kade spat throwing Travis back onto the floor.
Travis crumpled into a mass of wet pants and snivelling. Ada looked between Kade and Travis; she felt her tears suddenly flow down her cheeks. It had become too overwhelming. With her Mother missing, Travis stalking her and now breaking into her home while she slept, Abaddon threatening to kill her and her emotions mixing between lust and distrust for Dane, it was just too much. Kade turned and caught Ada as she slid down the wall to the floor. She buried her face into Kade’s chest and let her tears flow, tears that she couldn’t hold back no matter how much she tried.
“Ada” Travis spoke gently after some time.
Ada’s tears had begun to dry and she sat in her
