Chapter 201. Twenty

Sophia’s POV

I was nervous as hell.

I kept pacing around the living room and biting the skin around my nails.

Would his parents like me? Would they approve of me? What if they told him to reject me because of my darkness? Would he change his mind? Would he listen to them? What if he did end up rejecting me?

My heart was going a mile a minute. My palms were sweating and my breaths were short and fast.

Not being able to sleep last night didn’t help at all. The darkness was too much. It kept taunting me and trying to get me to use it. There was a weird feeling in my stomach. It was like hunger, but dull and persistent. It wasn’t the kind of hunger that could be satisfied with food. It was a hunger for magic.

“Calm down, Fia,” Lex sighed. “You are driving me crazy.”

I ignored him completely. I couldn’t stop pacing around. My magic would come out if I did. I had to keep moving.

“Goddess, Fia, what’s wrong with you?” Lex asked me.
