Abilities were supposed to have been taken out of existence. All people that possessed them were taken into custody by the government and contained to prevent the population from becoming corrupt. Clearly, that had failed.

To Adara, life was only about graduating college, getting a job, and surviving her boyfriend, Gabe. That was, until she almost burned down her school with her Ability.

Dealing with blackmail, a kidnapping, and ransom, Adara has to find out how to save her best friend from the monster she had loved while still protecting herself.

Empire of Fire and Ice

Before Adara knew what she was doing, she was flying up the stairs, running into the walls, and bursting through her door. She was tripping on air and choking on nothing. 


Her head throbbed insistently and her eyes stung. The blood wouldn't stop pouring out of her forehead. 


She stumbled to her bed and threw herself down, clutching her knees to her chest and rocking back and forth. 


Hyperventilating, no air, nothing was real, she was on fire. 


At least, it felt that way. Somewhere inside her, Adara knew she would be fine. Well, on the outside. She wasn't burning, but she felt too hot. 


She shouldn't have talked to Gabe that way. Shouldn't have protected Beck and Hali. All that did was get them in trouble and put targets on their backs. But what Gabe had seen her do with Beck... 


She shivered and gagged just thinking about the consequences.
