The intensity of the flare took her off-guard.
The power flooded through her.
It felt like her whole body had caught fire, a surge of flame sweeping through every cell of her body.
"Mnnn..."
She gasped for breath, arching her back, head tilting backwards.
Every inch of her body trembled.
She shuddered and jerked.
"Nnghhh...wha..."
Her eyes opened.
The world glowed in front of her, her vision blinded with bright light and color.
She could feel magic, feel it thrumming in the air all around her.
She'd never realized it before, but especially here, in the fae lands, it was pulsating, thrumming in a powerful, hypnotic beat.
It was intoxicating.
Addicting.
She let out a moan and threw her head back.
It was dizzying, it made her head spin, made her feel weak, but in a strangely good way.
It felt like being high on adrenaline and ecstasy, that moment when you first see your lover in a new light.
