There, she is just a five-year-old daughter of Caitlin Blackburn, the daughter of the lineage of the Blackburn Coven. Caitlin Blackburn; a great warrior chooses to cut off her lineage and lay low in a small peaceful town, Cinderville, all because she wants to protect her daughter as she has been Chosen. But even as she tries to live and blend with the townspeople, they won’t stop at nothing to make her and her daughter look bad in the eyes of other people whenever they see them, and on a fateful day, they pronounced her a witch and burned her in the eyes of all the townspeople. Kneeling amongst her mother’s scattered ashes, Kyra vowed to avenge her mother’s death and the once peaceful town soon became a living hell for the people. That was before she later found out about other covens and how they were all after her life because she is the one sent to bring an end to their immortality in order to save humanity. Now, she was caught between saving the kind who killed her mother and giving redemption to her kind to live amongst humans and be like them.

Or you can start from this second book since it is starting from the beginning but make sure to read the first one after.

이른 아침, 한 중년 남성의 낚싯줄 끝에 내 몸이 우연히 걸렸다. 허공을 가르던 낚싯대가 내 몸을 붙잡자, 남자는 낚싯줄을 힘껏 당겼지만 바늘은 좀처럼 빠지지 않았다. 조심스럽게 다가간 남자가 본 것은 물 위에 떠 있는 나의 모습이었다. 그는 혼비백산하여 낚싯대를 내던지고 급히 경찰에 신고했다. 경찰이 나를 물 밖으로 끌어 올렸을 때, 나는 가까스로 숨만 붙어 있는 상태였다. 응급처치를 하던 의사들은 내가 살아날 가능성이 거의 없다고 단정 지었고, 가족들은 마지막 인사를 하기 위해 병원으로 향했다. 그때, 남편에게 한 통의 응급 전화가 걸려왔다. “서명이 필요합니다. 급히 와 주셔야 합니다.” 그러나 남편은 감기에 걸린 첫사랑을 위해 정성스레 생강차를 끓이고 있었다. 그는 바쁘다는 이유로 오지 않았다. 그리고 그 후— 그는 눈이 붉어지도록 울며 단 한 번이라도 돌아봐 달라고 애원했다. 하지만 나는 더 이상 그를 바라볼 수 없었다.

Nanganganib na mawalan ng trabaho si Chrissa dahil sa papalugi na ang kompanyang kanyang pinapasukan. Isa siya sa mga nagsusulat para sa isang magazine na sa bawat labas ng bagong edition ay laging mababa ang benta. She doesn't want to lose her job. All she needs to do is to write something that would catch everyone's attention and urge them to buy their next magazine issue. She needs to find someone whom she can feature on her next article... someone like— Trace Dela Serna. Trace is a well-known businessman. Kilalang-kilala ito dahil sa yamang mayroon ang pamilya nito. Laman din ng mga balita noon ang lalaki dahil sa kinasangkutang kontrobersiya ilang taon na ang nakararaan. Namatay sa isang engkuwentro ang kasintahan nito at walang sino man ang nakaaalam kung ano ang dahilan ng barilang naganap. Naniniwala si Chrissa na gumamit ng koneksiyon at yaman ang mga Dela Serna upang hindi malaman ng media ang dahilan ng mga nangyari. Ni walang nagtagumpay na makuhanan ito ng panayam. At iyon ang gusto niyang magawa— si Trace ang nais niyang maging paksa sa sunod na article na kanyang isusulat. Kung sakaling maisiwalat niya ang dahilan ng pagkamatay ng kasintahan nito, baka sakaling tumaas ang kita nila. She thought it would be easy, pero hirap siyang makapanayam ang kampo ng binata. Dahilan iyon para mag-isip siya ng ibang paraan upang makalapit dito at makakuha ng mga impormasyon— Chrissa applied as Mat-Mat's nanny, ang limang taong gulang na anak ni Trace. Magagawa niya bang alamin ang sikretong nakabalot sa pagkatao ni Trace? Will she be able to make him agree for an interview? O sadyang siya ang mahihirapang makasama ang binata sa iisang bubong dahil sa pag-uugaling mayroon ito? Can she ever tame... his stone heart?
