I closed my eyes for a bit and opened them. My eyes met Beauty's own but as much as she fought and kicked me out of her head, I didn't give up either. I needed to show her that we are families. Wanted to tell her Corner's stories and show her the cave her father was doing rituals in.
She gasped as I completely took over her mind. Cleo was right. I needed her help with this. If it wasn't for Cleo, I wouldn't have gotten through to Beauty. I showed her the cave and she could see what was inside them. "The beginning and The end," we first talked about the day we read at the library together. I never knew that was what was happening when the dean began to use ancient magic to defeat me. He was after me the whole time.
Beauty was finding it difficult to believe all that I showed her and all that Corner told me. I showed her what I had seen at the church too. The shapeshifter messager her father had sent and killed at the church.
