“Magic doesn’t bother me,” Kaden said, but it was not quite as casual as he wanted it to sound. It didn’t bother him, but he was very aware that Ash understood this place and this type of magic more than he did. “I know Merlin, and Hecate, so like, I know magic.” I am magic, he thought but didn’t say, because getting into the whole ‘a group of witches and wizards had to put me back together with magic’ story really wasn’t something he wanted to tell.
Well, he did, a bit. Or, he wanted to hint at it, at least. Wanted Ash to know there was something about him, even if he wasn’t going to tell Ash what it was.
