My feelings for Morgan are growing stronger. How could I be falling in love with someone who practices dark magick. I can't be wrong about her though. The ICOW doesn't have all the necessary information on both Cal and Morgan yet. I have to get my mind on more important matters. I cannot become emotionally involved in this assignment. Thank the Goddess that I have Sky to help me through this.

"Morgan, this is serious. The council needs me to figure out this whole situation now. Now get in the car, and we'll talk at my house. There's no going back home this time." He led me to his car. This time he was smart enough to not speak a word until we made it to his house.

Since this time we weren't arguing, I could actually think about what was happening. Actually, I was thinking more of the weird feeling I was getting from being so close to him. Snap out of it, Morgan! I told myself. I was with Cal. What the hell is wrong with me? Still, I couldn't shake the feeling away. Luckily, well depending how you think about it, we got to his house quickly.

I cast out my senses and realized no one was home. I figured that was better for me. There wouldn't be any surprise attacks or anything, unless I couldn't feel them in the house! Ugh, why can't I just calm down. Hunter doesn't have any proof of anything that I did. Yet.

"Sit down," Hunter said gesturing to his sofa. "Morgan, I need you to tell me now. Now's the time to say anything that you've done with Cal. You could save yourself a lot of trouble." There was a short a pause, and then he continued. "Tell me, have you done any dark magick?"

His eyes are such a deep shade of green, I thought to myself. Looking into his eyes made me want to confess immediately. I quickly looked away. When I had the guts to look back, we both ended up staring into each others' eyes. This was definitely awkward, but then Hunter pulled back as he seemed to realize that I never answered him.

"I'm sorry, but I don't know what you're talking about," I answered pulling myself back together. Oddly, he looked disappointed in me. No, not looked, I could feel it.

"I know that you did dark magick with Cal the other day. There are taibhs in this town. Thank the Goddess that the council has been after them so they can't create too much harm. We have reason to believe that Selene's follower was killed by these taibhs, though."

"How many times are you going to tell me this? For the final time, I didn't do any dark magick with Cal. I haven't even seen Cal since the fire. Are you done now?"

"Yes, I'm done now."

"Since, we're done, good bye."

Before I reached the door Hunter said, "You just dug yourself even deeper. I think you just made the wrong decision."

"Leave me alone." I ran out of the house when I realized that I didn't have a car. I glanced back at the door, where Hunter stood smiling, knowing that I didn't have a ride home.

"Would you like a ride back?"

There is no way that I was about to give him that satisfaction. That just means more time to question me. Not happening. "No thanks."

I ended up calling a taxi that arrived half an hour later, but what else could you expect from a small town taxi service?

I'm seriously stuck. I don't mean for the story to seem like it's going in circles. I'm beginning to get some ideas formed, but I'm not sure how to get there. Again, suggestions are welcome. R&R please. I think next chapter will be a bit better, but reviews will help me get on with the story!
