Chapter 5
“All people have both good and evil inside of them. On one hand, they have a beast that seeks its own selfish desires above all else. On the other, they have a kind spirit willing to help others. How do we know which one will rule a person? The ruler will be the one a person feeds, the beast or the spirit.” ~Jewel
Jewel stood rooted the ground with Anna, Z, and Sly waiting for her in the parking lot of Spirit Crystals, the first occult shop on their list. Her feet felt as though they’d been bolted to the pavement beneath her. Every time she thought to herself, you need to move, the harder it was to obey.
“This is a great view,” Sly said. “But I think it would be even better inside the store, because then we would actually be able to see the person we need to talk to.”
