But what frightened me was that it matched the mark that had appeared on myownforehead.
Pain lashed through my skull and collected at my temples, making me grab my head as I cried out in pain.
“What’s the meaning of this?!” my mother shouted. She rushed through the crowd as she pushed aside Royal Coven’s witches. They wore their best finery to this occasion, but I knew it wasn’t for me. My mother was a powerful and rare Elemental and she was the one that everyone was supposed to be interested in.
I wasn’t special.
I was human.
I was dull, uninteresting.
… Right?
Just when I thought my mother was concerned about my well-being, she started tugging at my shirt and plucking at the strap of my top. “Whatareyou wearing?”
Of course. She wasn’t concerned that my skull was about to split into two.
My outfit was the entirety of her focus right now.
She lifted her lip and plucked at my bra strap. Her reaction felt unwarranted. It wasn’t like I’d decided to waltz downstairs naked.
Which probably would have been a better idea, because right now I felt like I was the center of this male’s attention and part of it had to do with my outfit.
His ruby eyes raked over my frame, taking in every inch of me and making the turmoil in my stomach ramp up a notch.
Being the sole focus of his scrutiny made me feel like a butterfly trapped in a net.
My vision blurred and rainbows exploded everywhere. Pain sliced through my skull and I whimpered.
It was something about his presence that pushed me and threatened to destroy my world.
That’s when everything began to go dark and my vision blanked.
The male rushed for me as I faltered. He held me upright before yanking me against his chest.
He didn’t say a word.
But it was too late, I felt our similarities just as a massive spike of pain stabbed through my forehead.
A new weight made my head tilt down and the room erupted in a massive, collective gasp.
I blinked a few times as my vision cleared, then reached up to touch something that definitely didn’t belong there.
I spotted my reflection in the two-story mirrors my mother had installed in the ballroom— because it allowed the guests to watch themselves. They all loved looking at their own images.
My image, however, didn’t make any fucking sense.
Because a golden horn protruded from my forehead.
“I’m… a fucking unicorn? Are you kidding me?”
RAZE
This was absolutely unprecedented.
I stared at the gorgeous female who had sprouted the largest, most elegant golden horn I’d ever seen in my life.
Her body pressed against mine as she still wavered from the impact of awakening her inner power.
