Magic in the air (open/m/m)

Cassie grew up in a world of magic, magic that when used used you back as payment. She was used to using it and having body aches, headaches and other body pains here and there, but her pains were nothing compared to what some other people when through when they used magic. Some people went insane from using. Cassie ran a hand through her soft brown hair as she wandered slowly around her apartment only wearing an oversized hoodie her body still aching from her last stint of using magic for the police over two months ago, for some reason she was constantly talked into tracking magic or just using magic for one detective in particular. He was handsome and at one point Cassie had fallen into bed with him as a one night stand but that had been months ago, since then they had such strong sexual tension between them that it made Cassie angry, or maybe that was just her inability to keep herself in a stable relationship and that was something he had wanted with her. Stability,

Hearing someone knock at her door Cassie groaned a little, cradling her coffee in her hands she shuffled her way over to her door and opened it a little without looking through the peephole. She lived in a bad part of town so she knew if someone was going to break into her apartment they would do it without knocking first. Seeing her one time one night lover and detective standing in the hallway Cassie rolled her eyes "What do you want?" Cassie groaned scrunching her nose a little at him, "If you need magic I am so not doing it right now, my body is killing me" she added sounding annoyed at the thought that he was there to get her to do magic since there was many other magic users out there that could use magic for him.

Cassie could still remember how the two of them had met like it was yesterday, she had been an informant for him and his team about a group of men using blood magic on women who were sex workers because they normally were women who could vanish and no one would look for them. At the time she had been working as a call girl whose speciality was bringing magic into the bedroom that was until she herself had been taken by the men who were targeting sex workers, he had found her when he and his team had done a raid on a group of men doing blood magic on women to keep them under their control because they were running a sex ring.

She had watched him throw magic around like it was nothing and as far as Cassie knew it didn't hurt him, but her mind had been muddle at the time. That was the bad thing about blood magic, it was addictive and also hard to get away from. She could still remember him undoing the blood magic that was on her bringing her a world of pain before sweeping her into his arms, he had been her knight in shining armour that day. After the gang had been arrested Cassie had agreed to work with him doing magic because he had made her promise not to go back to working as a call girl and he promised to make sure she always had enough money to live. Shaking her head a little clearing those thoughts she looked back at him with a raised brow as she sipped on her coffee.
