(Everything about us... is magical.)
Melanie Spears thought she was an ordinary high school girl until she learned she wasn’t. Dragged into a hidden realm where magic rules and royal blood matters, she’s faced with choices no teenager should ever make. Torn between homework and hidden powers, a mysterious stranger guides her toward a destiny she never asked for.
As she steps into her royal role, Melanie discovers perks she never imagined, and dangers that could destroy everything she loves. With supernatural forces stirring in both her world and the human realm, she’ll have to be braver than she’s ever been.
School assignments clash with forbidden secrets. Friendships are tested. Emotions run wild and so does her magic. When she hears the word “danger,” it’s not a warning. It’s a prophecy.
Can she balance teenage life and a destiny she didn’t ask for?
Excerpt from the story: "Melanie, can you please stay back?"
"What do you mean?"
"Can you not go to school today? Stay at home, please." She pleaded with glassy eyes. I pulled her into an embrace.
"Can you tell me why you don't want me to leave?" "Danger." she whispered.
"I wouldn't have wished for the latter. I should have just maintained the first prayer. All because what I saw...was going to be the end of me, what I saw was terrifying. It was death!"
