Amaris threw off the plain white sheets and rolled out of the twin bed that lay nestled against the wall and in the corner of the room.

She was going to switch back. Rita was right, this life wasn’t hers. It never was. She had just borrowed it or rather stolen it. And now it was time to return it. In the days leading up to the full moon, Rina poured her whole heart into everything. She kissed Rafaele every chance she got.

The Moon Festival banners were already hanging across the academy courtyard even though the main celebration was still weeks away. Everywhere Lily looked, people were buzzing with excitement. The atmosphere sparkled with anticipation. Tonight was one of the first smaller events leading up to the festival which was the Moon Ball, a formal night of dancing, drinking, and flirting.
