Chapter 68: Rouge Mage

"Who is Amelia?" Jezza asks, her hand trembling as she holds her teacup.

"She is- was one of my friends before I came here." My skull pounds and I feel nauseous. "When the vamps came to our school, she was there and got injured in the magical backlash." And I had gone to her to apologize, to see her.

"How did she get the grimoire?" Melanie frowns. "Wasn't like she was ever here at the school to take it."

Gwen blanches, twisting her hands in her lap. "I-I had it. Took it with me when I was transferred to the human school. I thought I could find a spell that would return my magic, but nothing worked."

"And you gave the book to this Amelia?" Nora's voice is full of disbelief and disgust.

"Of course not." Gwen snaps her head up. "I'm not stupid."

"Where is the grimoire now?" I say before everyone here starts screaming at each other or worse.
