WATTPAD ORIGINAL EDITION The nightmare continues when Ryan, the gay wizard, comes face to face with the most unexpected nemeses yet. He will have to figure out if love truly is the most powerful magic of all. ***** After the events of I'M A GAY WIZARD, Ryan wakes up to a startling scene--his father is driving him to begin a brand new life in a small, idyllic town called Misthaven. The dream-like memory of being trapped at the Marduk Institute relentlessly haunts Ryan's new life. In the night, Ryan comes face to face with a nightmarish force who warns him that he and his friends are, in fact, trapped in a magical dream prison created by the Institute to quell its most troublesome wizards.

"We can't do this." I whisper as our lips re-connect, a tingling fire surging through my body as his hands ravage unexplored lands; my innocence dissipating away with every peck he trails down my neck. "I know we can't. That's why it's so exciting." He replies through kisses. His effortless charm intoxicates me; drowning me; hunting me; devouring me. "What if my brother finds out?" The perpetuated patter of the rain unable to subdue my groan as he digs his nails deeper into my skin. "Who cares." ********** Welcome to my story, where an innocent boy finds a not so innocent boy in his bed; where they do not so innocent things. - YOP
