Evie's eyes fluttered closed as he came in close, she felt the warmth of his breath against her neck and she struggled to keep her mind focused. She was not the sort to let a veritable stranger this close. Even though the members of her pack liked being close to her because of the effect she gave off, she often still kept most people at a safe distance.<br/><br/>When he spoke again, it drew her attention to her watch on her wrist. He was right, time had moved in a strange way. It should have been a little after 8 pm, but instead, it was nearing midnight. Her brow furrowed at that information.<br/><br/>"Whoever did this, they were pretty sure one of us would kill the other. They didn't stick around, I'm not sure we were frozen, but we might have been staving off the impact of the spell." She explained. Evie had to learn a bit about magic because of her abilities. She lifted her gaze to his and let out a slow breath. "I feel...something. A draw I can't explain. I typically don't like people I don't know well being too close to me...My gift attracts all kinds of people, humans who are distressed and seeking comfort, but it can be...taxing. The gift doesn't come without cost, but with you--" She paused and looked away, then back again. "With you, it doesn't seem to bother me, which has never really happened before."<br/><br/>Her watch buzzed her wrist, alerting her that someone had sent her a message. It broke the tension a little bit. She pulled out her phone and saw there were at least three text messages from her mother. "So. You go back to your side of things and I go back to mine?" She asked, because she noticed he had said they needed to report back, but he had not moved. She wondered if it was dangerous for them to separate after what had just happened.
