Days passed by, and Sylvia grew more comfortable with her life. She had great people around her and work to do, which gave her enough money to sustain herself. The other best part of her work was the closeness she shared with Corbin.
After their first kiss, he avoided talking about it and though he was guarded around her, at least he didn't shut her away from his world.
Sylvia didn't know what kind of relationship they shared. It was definitely not a friendship. It was more than just that. Yet she was apprehensive of acknowledging that truth. She was happy with where they stood with each other. She didn't expect more. She couldn't!
Since she had started pleasing the Dark Lord, she began to feel the changes in herself. She felt more confident than before. Her magic felt more powerful than before.
