Hunters and Families: Birth.

Chapter 10. The dark beast.

Seeing my brother all right, and he quietly returns to me, I sighed with relief.

- Went home - I said to Derek, no longer paying attention to Arthur, who closely watched us.

Closing the door behind us, I could feel safe.

- You, Christine. Something happened along the way? - seeing that we came, grandma Linda with concern and looked at us, but I just reassuringly smiled at her.

- No. All right, grandma, ' I answered her, deciding not to mention the unpleasant meeting with the Scion of the family lance.

Hmm, after today's meeting, I really hated them and wanted to protect her little brother from their machinations.

Grandma heard me, just nodded again and went into the kitchen, and I, leaving her purchases, hurried back to her room.

Only climbed to the second floor, I noticed that Derek continues to follow me like a tail.

- Something wrong, Derek? I stopped halfway to her room, and, turning to him, smoothed down his slightly disheveled hair.

- Sister... Your wrist, ' said Derek shyly and pointed to my wrist, which was weakly visible bruises from the grip of Arthur.

- Oh! - I looked at these footprints and hiding his hand behind him, smiled at him. - Don't worry. This is nonsense. I'll treat your wounds.

- Let me help - imploring eyes asked Derek. - I know a spell that will heal those bruises.

- Spell? - I was surprised and looked at him. - So you own a magic Hunter?

Hunters, too, have magic, of course, not as strong as in animals, but that's what distinguished them from ordinary people and made them special, and not just the possession of Weapons of the Hunter.

If that boy owned a Gun, so why would my brother not to wield magic?! The more magic is cool!

I want to see it!

Okay. Why don't you! - I agreed, and pointed to his room. - Why don't we heal my wounds in my room. If my grandma will see, that notation cannot be avoided.

- Yeah. Nodded vigorously and Derek followed me.

When we were in the room alone, I showed him the bruise, and Derek gently touched my skin with her little hands. Then his hand was enveloped in a Golden aura, and Derek focused on the treatment.

While he was treated, I sat confused, as the feeling of his magic was very impressive and my skin seemed to become two times more sensitive! His touch was so gentle and pleasant, slightly pricking the skin, and this in turn caused a lot of tingling throughout the body. We sat in absolute silence. I, red and embarrassed, from the unknown sensation, and Derek is calm and collected, focused on the treatment.

Soon he removed his hands and looked at me.

- Thanks, - thanked me, looking at my wrist and not seeing the old bruise there. I smiled at him when he suddenly pointed to my shoulders.

- You got too bruised. Let me heal them too, sister. - Said Derek.

It's nothing. - I calmed him. Besides, I knew that magic is no joke, and it also requires strength. - They are not serious, so...

- I don't like when my older sister walks in with bruises on the body, seriously said Derek, and I'm so not myself from his words and gaze. He had such a grown-up look! - Especially when those bruises from someone that I hate so much.

Confused by his words, I gave up and clearing up, remaining only in a t-shirt with short sleeve and slightly exposing the shoulders, which also bruising. Still, the power Arthur's inhuman.
