What you see isn’t what you get, she thinks as he walks away, to his father in that car, to his little brother bouncing in the backseat, to a life she can’t understand. She wonders if he’ll be safe, if he’ll be happy, if any dreams he has can be reached.
But it’s not her place to ask him to stay-and he wouldn’t, anyway. He has a destiny, on the backroads of America, a future she can never comprehend.
And this boy-man, hunter, killer, savior-is meant for so much more.
Good luck, she thinks, and he’s gone.

Every time the phone rings, she jumps up to answer. Which is stupid, since he won’t use the phone, anyway. If he does come back-unlikely-he’ll just show up one day. No call, no warning-he’ll just be here. Alive. Safe. Maybe even happy, though she doesn’t think she’s ever seen him happy before.

He’ll be back when he is, and not a day before. But she still springs to her feet and lunges for the phone, always hoping-

It hurts that, after everything, this is how it will end.
You’ve always wished for too much.
The poison circulates slowly, like it was designed to. Torture in a way that they never really imagined when they created it.
Witchblood, you think. Witch’s blood. Her blood, out of everything in any of the realms…

Against such potent poison, there is no inoculation. Against such potent poison, no Jewel is strong enough to battle and defeat.
Sometimes, you think you hear her screaming.
