Elize shivered. The magic seeped through their mental bond. "I really have to go back, now!" she politely ordered the woman who was flying with her.
'Control your magic now,' said Caleb through their bond. 'It is trying to take control of you.'
She focused on her magic. She imagined pulling the fine thread inside her. "Please put me down," she said to the woman simultaneously.
The woman twisted her lips, "Are you sure? We are having so much fun."
"I am. I have to return," Elize said sternly. She wasn't sure why, but yes, she was feeling liberated. She wanted to soar higher but at the same time she wanted to go back to Caleb. She could sense his worry in his voice and it unsettled her.
"Elize…" the magic hissed. "You won't get to live as fully as today…"
Feeling jittery as to how her magic was convincing her to stay and even feeling the pull to do what it was saying, her mind swayed. It had been ages that she had felt this free.
