After the lengthy meeting with the queen, Maverick and Michael drove straight home. By the time they arrived, it was already ten in the evening. It had been a month and a half since Maverick had last been home, and before he could get any rest, he...

Woosh!
A fist shot toward Maverick’s chest.
Maverick sidestepped, the punch missing by inches. He spun on his heel to dodge the next swing, then hopped back lightly onto the platform.
“Almost had me there, Wilson,” he sa...

The shop was obviously larger on the inside, filled with shades of pink. The curtains, walls, and even many of the robes on display were all in that color. There weren’t many people inside—just a couple of witches, and no wizards in sight.

Once they were alone in the car on the way to the Leaky Cauldron, Maverick finally asked Isabella what their mothers had been talking about.

Maverick saw Edward standing beside his desk, with a few items placed on top of it. He couldn't focus on them, his mind too anxious.
Edward raised an eyebrow and smirked. "What, you think I brought you here to scold you or something?" he as...
Silvia left to make her call to London, leaving Edward alone with Maverick and Isabella.
Edward looked at the two sitting there with their heads down, looking nervous. The silence in the room grew heavier with each passing second.

Maverick walked down the stairs, getting himself ready for the conversation ahead. He knew that Isabella’s mother had likely noticed something about their relationship, but her father—who was also Maverick’s teacher—either hadn’t noticed...
