All Chapters of Spyrit Study - Book 2 of Spyrit Trilogy: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Once Elanora had let loose her power and revealed her identity, everything changed. A thick air of tension blanketed over the battlefield, and desperation tinged everyone’s movements. Now there was more at stake that simply driving off the enemy, for our side, it was protecting the next Earth Magician. For the other side, it was about capturing her, or worse killing her. Out of nowhere, one of Tynan's soldiers launched at me, his sword drawn. My fingers clamoured for one of my blade and he was mere metres from me when I finally managed to throw it with with deadly accuracy. Before I could move to retrieve my blade, a strange weightlessness overcame my body. A sliver of pain began in my head before it spread throughout my body, burning me from the inside out. It wove through every muscle, every fibre of my body, sending the searing pain exploding to the forefront of all my rational thought. The world wavered in front of me, pain smashing again and agai

It had taken all the strength within me to walk down to the dungeons and just be in the same room as Deakin. Several powerful magicians bordered the room, their magic lining the walls and keeping Deakin’s magic at bay.There were seven of them in total. As I had made my way into the room, their emotions flowed through my, my control so lost after the battle. It was obvious from the disdain in their thoughts and emotions, their feelings for their prisoner, but what I didn’t expect was their annoyance. I recognised one of the magicians as Emerus, one of the council members.As I walked toward the cell, his unfiltered thoughts drifted through my head.… absolutely ridiculous and such a waste of my time. Seven guards? Really? The heat of his beady gaze on my skin followed me as I passed him. Surely the high and mighty Spyrit Magician could do the job of all of us. Although she is probably still moping about the loss of that orphaned n

“I will be with you the whole time,” Tori whispered in my ear, sending a shiver along my spine. I couldn’t believe I was back here. A glutton for punishment. The door between me and Deakin may as well have been a portal to the afterlife, that was how hard it felt to have to walk through it. I wasn’t ready to do this again. The last time I had spoken to him, I felt like I had fallen to pieces and only just managed to begin bringing myself back together. Having to do it all over again, I was worried at the outcome for my own Spyrit. The only thing different this time, was that there was more at stake now. I needed answers about Tynan, and I knew he had them. Hurting Deakin would physically hurt me too. I knew it would. But if there was no other option, I was going to have to do it. Knowing what Tynan had planned, was imperative and when it was going to happen, even if it meant confronting the man that seemed bent on breaking and tearing me apart. Before I could manage to pull mysel

“What the fuck happened?” a livid Blake roared as he burst into the infirmary, his eyes like daggers stabbing at me. In the past I would have thought he was pissed at me, but I could see beneath it now. He was afraid – afraid I had gone too far and lost myself to the darkness.Tori cast him a nervous glance, her eyes darting back and forward between the two of us. There was also something else hidden in the depths of her emotions that twisted inside of my stomach as realisation struck her in one fell swoop. It was then that I knew she understood the root of Blake’s reaction.Tori met my gaze, her eyes wide with understanding and her mouth agape in shock.Really? She mouthed at me, before skirting away from a fuming Blake.Hot air pulsed around us as he struggled to control himself. There was an unstable edge to the emotions that rolled through me as my magic flared to life in response.After finally revealing Tynan’s plans, I had passed out and Tori had brought me to the infirmary. The

Halfway to the dungeon, I realised that I was still dressed in the infirmary gown. I was too distracted, too absorbed in the feeling that still lingered on my skin from Blake’s touch, to think about much else. But that needed to change.I took a quick turn and headed to my room, closing the door behind me as quickly as I could. Even though I now had the strength and control to be able to shut off my connection to magic, I was far too exhausted and overwhelmed right now. Every emotion from the passing students, guards and teachers had washed across my skin, making it even harder to think clearly.But now wasn’t the time to get lost within their emotions. I had too much to do.Moving swiftly around my room, I threw on a pair of riding pants and a shirt, sliding a jacket over my shoulders. My leather satchel hung from on the edge of one of the chairs and I snatched it up, shoving spare clothes and things I would need into it as quickly as I could.A tingling feeling washed over me, and my
