Just when I thought that going to a new school could be a fresh start for me, I realise I couldn’t have been more wrong. Not only has my almost-boyfriend dubbed me “The Queen of Freaks,” but it turns out I’m way more powerful than anyone could have ever imagined. That would be all well and good if everything was as it should have been at the Winterwood Academy but what most people don’t know is that there’s danger inside the walls of the Academy far worse than anything we might face outside the Wardings. Students are dying, and other than my super hot sidekick, I’m the only one who knows that there is a serial killer on the loose. When my newfound powers attract the attention of one of the most dangerous witches the Winterwood Academy has ever seen, I’m not sure if I’ll be able to make it out alive.

“Huh?” I groaned again as I sat up, “I don’t have a clue where mine even is.”


“It’s in your top draw,” Zoe huffed before rolling over as though she was now the annoyed one.


I leaned over on my elbow and pulled the draw open just as the ringtone died.


Inside I found my Samsung, cold and alone in the otherwise empty draw.


“The battery is almost full,” I mused as I grabbed the phone and unlocked it.


“I kept it charged for you.” Zoe finally sat up and looked at me with a sheepish expression


“Thanks.” I smiled back at her even as my phone began to ring all over again.


I glanced down at the phone in my hand to see that it was Nicola.


“It’s Nicola.” I glanced up at Zoe again. “Does she...you know...think I’m dead?”


“With the way she’s been calling, I’m going to say no,” Zoe replied, and her cheeks began to flare almost as if she was embarrassed. “I answered a couple of times at first and told her you were sick.”
