handle it,’ Kelsie said, sounding amused. ‘I kind of like her that way, out and silent.’
    ‘What is going on?’ I asked, moving around, trying to breathe calmly. My world was spinning, but I couldn’t let Kate see that. I would normally be calm and collected, but those images shot through me like bullets. I felt like I was going to be sick.
    No, no, no, this isn’t possible. I was at home. I was sleeping!
    I tried to convince myself that I wasn’t a killer, but all the evidence was pointing at me. Jennifer was my ex co-worker. She tried to burn me alive me, but I would have never wished her ending up like this. Not long ago I woke up with blood on my hands and now I was seeing myself killing another person.
    Maybe that was why my magic was invisible today. Maybe I blacked out in the middle of the night and murdered my ex-coworker using my energy.
    Kate looked at me, obviously searching for signs of madness. ‘You were in shock, kept screaming about the knife. Right after Lucinda passed out.’
    ‘Jennifer—she is dead,’ I repeated.
    ‘Murdered, if we want to be more precise,’ Kate muttered, scanning the production room, probably searching for any clues.
    ‘The police are on the way. Do you think your dad will show up?’ Kelsie asked, staring mesmerised at Jennifer. I swallowed a few times, stopping myself from throwing up. Kelsie didn’t get that Kate and I knew the victim.
    ‘Probably,’ I said quietly.
    ‘Hey, girls. I don’t know why you’re both so shocked. It’s a body. Your father works with the police, so you should be used to it.’
    ‘Kelsie, give us a rest,’ Kate said through gritted teeth, shooting her an angry stare. ‘This is our ex-coworker Jennifer. Julia and she were kind of close.’
    ‘Coworker? Oh wow. I’m sorry.’
    ‘Kelsie,’ I sighed. ‘It’s fine, Jennifer was a nasty piece of work, but I don’t think she deserved to die like this. It’s better if we cover her up.’

Chapter four
    I’d rather do this without Grandma. She always makes me nervous.
    My stomach kept writhing and cramping when the Paranormal Unit arrived at La Caz Corporation. Lucinda was taken to the hospital. She was in shock, but the healers were optimistic about her condition. Dad showed up half an hour later with a forensic team.
    ‘Let me guess, you were here purely by coincidence?’ he asked, pursing his lips in frustration.
    ‘I came here for a meeting, Dad. Ask Kate if you don’t believe me,’ I mumbled back, shoving my sweaty hands into my pockets.
    He shook his head and went to look at the body. I urged Kate and Kelsie to keep their mouths shut about my mini seizure and screams from earlier on. Dad didn’t need to know that all of the sudden I was afraid of a corpse. I was tough; everybody were aware of that, but I lost the plot twice already in front of Kate.
    Later on I managed to learn from Dad that Jennifer had been dead for about six hours. She wasn’t charmed. No one used magic on her, although the air around the body was soaked with it. My heart fluttered in my chest when Dad informed me that Jennifer was killed between one and three in the morning.
    After that, he had requested all the CCTV cameras from security and wanted to question a few people that were working in the building yesterday. I sat on pins and needles wondering how long I had to wait before a warrant for my arrest would to be issued. The evidence was against me, but I didn’t remember anything.
    ‘You girls should leave. We will be here for a while and if I need any of you, I’ll contact Julia,’ stated Dad, walking through the door to Lucinda’s office. I didn’t have the chance to ask him more questions because he was called by another officer and vanished shortly. I exhaled loudly wondering if he could find anything that would lead him to the killer.
    ‘This is bad, really bad,’ Kate said, once we got into the taxi.
    ‘Jennifer was closely tied in to McGregor,’ I said.
    ‘It seems like maybe
