The Necklace That Protects Me novel Chapter 26

"No. No one does." Amy quietly replied. "I left my coven years ago. I didn't like the way they treated people who were different. I just wanted to live in peace. I made my own way and ended up at that school before I realized it was full of werewolves. I've had no trouble with them though. They think I'm human."

"Have you cast any spells on Noel?" Thomas's voice still hard.

"No I would never!" Amy cried out.

"And what about her crying?" Thomas asked in a more gentle tone.

"Well.. she got close to a boy.. he's the alphas son... I thought maybe she was his mate, her old roommate, who is human, is the betas son's mate. But Noel kissed him and then he pushed her away. She never said anything about feeling sparks so I don't think they are." Amy quietly explained.

"And what of the locket? I know that it is enchanted." Thomas responded.

"I don't know much about it. One of the symbols is for protection but that's all I know. She rarely takes it off."

"She's been wearing it for as long as I've known her. I don't know who she truly is but I'm starting to think there's something big going on..."

This strange dream conversation faded into the dream about my parents, then on to others about werewolves, witches, and dragons. None of my dreams featured Michael, which I was thankful for.

In the morning though my first dream was running through my head. Was the conversation between Thomas and Amy real? It couldn't be... I knew better. Things like witches and werewolves just don't exist!!

Amy sighed before standing up to grab one of Thomas's potted plants. She walk back to the table with it and sat it down. She reached out her hand to it and mumbled something in a different language. The plant instantly perked up and grew. The tiny buds blossomed into huge beautiful red flowers. I was speechless. Everything I thought I knew was apparently wrong. I closed my eyes and took a few deep breaths. Amy didn't say anything but sat back down.

I took my time sorting through my confused brain. First thing, apparently witches exist. There was no denying it. The proof was in my face. It was hard to accept but I had no choice. Second thing I needed to figure out was if this changed how I felt about Amy. We had lived together for several months. Not once did she hurt me. She was still the same person but apparently magical. My mind made up, I opened my eyes and smiled at her.

Amy was surprised but smiled back. Then I turned to Thomas.

"But you aren't one?" I questioned Thomas.

"No I am not." He confidently replied with an amused edge to it. I thought about it for a moment.
