Whispered words.
If I kept my eyes closed long enough, maybe I would convince myself
that the last week had been a dream. A phantom of a nightmare, a figment of
my worst imagination, the very day I’d been raised for.
And the one I wanted nothing more than to escape.
The whispers at my back existed within a bubble, as if I’d managed to
separate myself from them. Even as all the people who’d murmured behind
my mother’s back waited for their turn to say goodbye to the woman they
would never understand, I couldn’t force myself to pry my eyes open.
I stood with my feet shoulder-width apart, a habit my father had ingrained
in me all my life. Ready for anything, for a hunter to attack at any time—or
something even worse. The tile beneath my shoes was unnatural, the
separation it caused keeping me from touching the one thing that made my
soul feel whole.
The dirt beneath my feet.
“Low,” a small voice said.
A hand slipped into mine, much smaller fingers intertwining in a pattern
that we knew well. Ash stood at my side even after saying my name, giving
me the chance to compose myself. To stop the force threatening to consume
me. We’d kept my brother protected from the knowledge of what we were for
his own safety, for what would await him if he ever discovered his magic and
brought the coven down on us.
I should have been the one to be strong for him. After all, it wasn’t only
my mother who lay rotting in a casket for all to see, but his as well.
I forced my eyes open, staring at the pictures of our mother and our
family. Smiling faces stared out at the crowd, looking deceptively human. As
if we belonged here, when the only home we’d ever truly had wouldn’t have
embraced us if they’d known what we were.
Humans had only so much capacity for understanding in their hearts.
They tended to shy away from actual witchcraft, if the trials that had nearly
wiped out my ancestors were any indication.
