Listen to a song, 'Secrets and Lies' by Ruelle. I love it!
Eveline's POV
The days went by, I was training and getting stronger. The training went with Miss Patricia, I told her that I can't train with young Lord due to personal issues. She was a very nice coach, she was very strict and demanding but this is what is needed right now. I need to get my mind off from 'love thoughts'. Not only did I train my abilities but also Ava and others decided to train my physical strength. Now I am heading to train with Miss Patricia, what I like about her is, she changes our training location so that we could see how my powers work in a different environment and she spends her time on me personally! I guess she really is interested in my powers and they are ancient and rare.
I was outside, around oak trees not so far from the mansion. Miss Patricia was standing near one of the trees, "Good day, coach!" I smiled at the old lady and made my way to her. It was cold outside and I was only in a sweatshirt and regular jeans, on the other hand, Patricia was in the white set from wool material, and on top of that was a brown, leather coat. what can I say? Stylish.
"To you too. So, today we will start working on your abilities" she smiled and circled around me.
"And what we did all these days?" I nervously chuckled and she stood behind me and let out a small laugh, "Miss Campbell, all these days was just a warm-up, now we are going to do the real training." I looked back at her and she mischievously smiled at me...
"Miss Campbell, what do you think our powers are?"
"Well, um...they are our abilities with which we are born"
"Yes, we are born with these powers but what are they? How do shifters get born with different abilities? Telekinesis, flying, reading minds, controlling water or fire or air or earth, super-speed, super-strength, and lots of lots of more..." she gibbered the powers non-stop giving me goosebumps, and only now I really understand how fascinating this world is. People who shift to different animals who have magnificent abilities! And I am one of them.
She stood in front of me, smiling, "The powers are not that simple, Miss Campbell, they are one of our senses and we get particular power due to our personality, habits, and who we are" she was looking deeply into my eyes before huffing and stepping back, "For example, me! What can you tell me about me?" she put her hands into her coat-pockets and stood in a pose expectantly.
What can I tell looking at a lady in her fortieth?
"Alright, no offense, coach, I am gonna be honest" she chuckled and nodded, "You look...arrogant and you think that you have the reason to be, you show yourself as a powerful woman with a hard personality...you look very calm most of the time but sometimes you can...you can" I searched for the word while looking on the autumn leaves on the ground.
"Flame up?" I looked up at the woman who raised her hand and in a second her hand was flaming like a torch and she threw her hand on the near tree, creating a fireball.
"Holy..." I was shocked and she was having fun. "Good job, Miss Campbell" she smirked and swiftly hid her hand back inside the pocket but before she looked at the burning wood with glowing, ruby eyes making the fire disappear. "The conclusion? I have the ability to manipulate fire because we are one whole" damn...that's actually pretty logical.
I looked at my hands and asked Patricia, "This happens with everyone?" she gave me a nod and began explaining more, "We can dig deeper into our powers. The ability we can do is just small things we are capable of. I can manipulate fire but if I will feel it more and feel it as one of my senses...I can create it too"
Now, that's what Reece was talking about.
"Okay...and what about my powers?" I rose my eyebrow and hugged my shoulders with my hands pretending that I am cold in front of Miss Patricia because if she will find out that I am not cold in this weather...She will guess who I am.
"What about you, Eveline, what makes you stronger than everyone else? You already can create the energy...But you can create only light waves...powerful waves for now, also you can create electricity and maybe...but I am not really sure" she began and then stopped, looking away. "What?" I demanded and then she answered fixing her platinum-haired, "You maybe can create thunder and shift the weather because energy is such a thing you know...energy is in everything so..."
Holy f**k...if this is true...that makes me...makes me not only walking electricity...that makes me the most dangerous creature...
I started trembling due to the news...I was damn scared of myself! Were you ever scared of yourself?
"Miss Patricia...does this makes me dangerous?" I looked up at her and for the first time, I could see her hesitation.
"If you will get out of control...and let your emotions rule you...there is a chance that you will be the most dangerous thing on planet Earth..." my breath hitched in my throat, "But, that won't happen...I will train you better than everyone...you will be just fine. You have nothing to worry about" she sounded so believable but somehow...I couldn't believe her.
"Okay, Eveline. Do you want to play a little? Do what I told you...feel your powers in your veins...feel the energy that was part of you" I closed my eyes and calmed my body but silence and thoughts in my mind were very annoying. Even if I relaxed my body I couldn't stop thinking...
My eyes were closed and it was like I couldn't open them. The memories came rushing into my head and I could nearly see them! My breath went unsteady, perhaps Miss Patricia is thinking that I am focusing on my energy but the fact is...I can't control my emotions.
I felt sparks inside my forearms and felt how they went down my hands.
You couldn't save them...You run away...
Only I wanted to open my eyes, I remembered the worst memories.
Dead body.
Crystal eyes.
Anger, pain, sadness.
...and suddenly I let out powerful bolts of lightning to the front not even knowing how. Only I could see is purple light and energy that filled me up...
I was breathing heavily when purple lightning hit the tree and now...there was no tree anymore only black, burned leftovers. I looked at Miss Patricia who was looking at the flaming wood and then the fire disappeared and I knew that it was her.
I was angry at myself. I was angry that I couldn't control my emotions and memories! If this would happen in real life somewhere in public...No, I don't want to even imagine.
Then I uttered looking sadly, saying the only thing that came into my mind, "If I am so...dangerous. Maybe I should really train with Lord Willer?" these words shocked both of us. I couldn't face Reece but I knew that he is the only one who can fully teach me how to control my abilities. I should train with him not only for myself but if I am that dangerous that means I can hurt people around me...I can't let that happen.
"Of course, it's better if you train with him but if you don't wa--"
"No. I will..." I cut her off and she nodded in understanding and said in an authoritative tone, "Then, from tomorrow on you will start training with Lord Reece Willer"
I made a decision...there is no going back...
