      The rest of the week flies by with me shuffling both meditations with Steven and therapy with Amelia. I haven’t seen either hind or hair of anyone except Steven and Amelia and the occasional strangers I see whenever I go out on a stroll in the morning. I don’t know if Steven asked them to give me space but I’m grateful for the reprieve. Dana and Michael don’t seem like trouble, and I know for a fact that Dana constantly checks up on me at night when she thinks I’m sleeping, but Rae is a whole ball of energy I don’t have the strength to deal with.     Therapy has been great, for lack of a better word. I never knew how much worry, fear, anger, and pain I’d been holding back until I started to unlock my Pandora box. We tackled issues in my life as a kid and how I’d always felt alone before my step-father arrived, we talked about how angry and upset I am with my mother for not ever telling me about everything before she passed. How stressed and

      Run... my darling, Run!   I stumbled to a stop at the sight of my parents, both of them on their knees, their arms wrapped around each other.      Their eyes are wide with horror while staring at the cloaked figure looming over them with a sword in hand. None of them noticed my presence as of yet, so I slowly inch forward in fear. My mother suddenly looks my way, urging me to obey with her eyes, her soft voice mentally screaming at me to run!     Sitting upright with a gasp, I looked around as panic gripped my chest, my breathing coming out in laboured breathes. My wide, frantic, and disoriented eyes searched for the flames, for my parents, or the third presence within the room. Except there's nothing but plaster walls and shelves filled with books. Only, when a soft, feminine voice floated past my panic thoughts did I slowly pull back to the present.      Just lik

     When I told Steven it will be best for me to move into one of the dorms since it appeared odd for a student to live with the Dean, I didn’t anticipate he'd accept the idea so quickly.     It was practically as if he was intending to send me away before I even asked, which kind of hurts now that I think about it.    Steven had to be at the academy for an important staff meeting with the teachers, Dana’s busy at the infirmary, and the twins had gone home for the weekend. So Steven called his secretary, who demanded from one of the female fire elementals, to give me a ride to my new dorm. And apparently, that little demand didn’t sit well with her.       Lia, the girl whose conversation I’d discreetly eavesdropped on my second day here was, unfortunately, the fire elemental sent to pick me up.       Despite the flow of leg traffic from the students, she drives like a craz

       My other roommates were certainly not what I was expecting, though am not even sure what I was expecting. Tiffany, Beatrice, and Camille are brunette’s, and all 5’11ft tall. While Tiff -as she instructed me to call her- has dark chocolate brown eyes with warm beige skin tone, an upturned nose, angular cheekbones and too full lips, Camille has natural blonde highlights in her hair with angular and sharp features, piercing green eyes, and oval-shaped lips.      As for Beatrice, she has golden-brown skin, soft light brown eyes, a straight nose and small bow-shaped lips. They’re dressed from head to toe in black and look ready to kill. I don’t mean that appealingly. The most startling thing about them though is the large muscles outlining their body, they even have 6 pack abs. I know this because they showed me, and long toned legs.     They’re also incredibly loud, and in the past few minutes that they’ve be

                          Prologue       Surviving high school is one thing, confronting so many challenges along the way is completely another.        All Coral wanted was to unearth her memories so she can give her parents justice over their deaths, get over her panic attacks, and move inconspicuously away from the scrutiny of society and the students of Coral&Knight Academy.       Instead, she uncovers a lot more than she bargained for. And as more secrets are revealed, lies unfolded, and feelings get entangled, she's forced to tackle each crisis head-on without much preparation.       Only, when her life hangs on the brink of death will she fight and survive, or will she finally cave in like a coward?
