Book 1 of the Tales of Magick

Princess Gwendolyn wins the favours of the magisterial council and earns her position at the near-top of their ranks as a level 1 Mage; a title she has fought and clawed for years to claim as her own. At 27 she is the youngest ever to claim a seat on the council -- without any help or influence from her higher position as the Princess of the Umber Courts. Her first task as a Minister of the Council is simple: Attend a Magic high school to fish out the source of demonic corruption turning students into slaves for the army of the Dark Magus. She attends school as Gwen, a rich socialite-type ready to reclaim the reins of popularity once again;  but the world has changed drastically since she was in high school, and she must navigate this new territory carefully -- trying her best to avoid anyone blowing her cover, and finding out her identity as the crowned princess.

In the wake of the winter formal, secrets are coming to light. The girl who would be a mage has set herself on a path to learn the magic of the Magi. Therein could lie the answer to her heritage, but her research could also spell her doom. Still unaware of what she is capable of, the students fear Naena more than before. Whispers swirl about her origins, about the Hell magic clinging to her skin, and the liquid magic she wields. But for every action, there is a consequence. Even a spell gone sour affects the world, each calling of power risks also calling a dragon, and for every spurned lover there is a cold shoulder.

For all the goody two shoe girls who romanced Minthara Baenre, This is for you ;) In a world where the oppressive Fidelis Order governs all aspects of life through a rigid control of ancient magic, Ayenna, a young disciple cast out for her crimes against the sect, stumbles into a dangerous conspiracy. While on a journey to redeem herself, she inadvertently binds herself to a mysterious woman named Nilvi, a former member of the rebellion. Bound by a magical link that intertwines their fates, Ayenna and Nilvi must navigate a web of secrets, betrayals, and growing tensions within the rebel group they find themselves allied with. Along the way, they uncover ancient ruins and mythical markings that may hold the key to dismantling the Fidelis Order's power. As Ayenna grapples with her burgeoning connection to forbidden magic and the painful truths about her own identity, she is forced to confront not only the Sect but also the deepening personal conflicts within the group. Nilvi's dark past, haunted by betrayal and regret, slowly unravels, threatening to destroy any hope of trust between them. Caught between the fight for freedom and the mysterious forces guiding her, Ayenna must decide where her loyalties lie-and whether she can trust Nilvi with her heart, or if Nilvi's secrets will lead them all to ruin.

I'd Like to think I was a good person, before it all began. I didn't cheat on tests, or steal. But throughout my entire life, I was treated if I were a monster. At the age of five, after several agonizing tests, I was diagnosed with Reactive Attachment Disorder. But not even that title could describe just how strange I was. When another kid got hurt, I would cry. Whenever someone else was told a funny joke, I would laugh hysterically. People looked at me as if I were crazy- and for while I agreed with them. That was until I, Caddie Jones, was exiled to Nox Haven Academy, a school for truly special kids. Not the mentally ill, psychotic kind of special but the magical kind. Like witches, vampires, fairies and werewolves. Call me crazy if you want, you wouldn't be the first. But the stories are all true. The supernatural did exist and I was one of them. Life there was cool until suddenly, I was faced with two-faced witches, egotistical princes, hormone driven werewolves, and an army of evil warlocks who were threatening to destroy the world. ... Maybe Nox Haven was a school for psychos after all. ---------------------------------------------------------- Highest Rank: #2 in Paranormal 1st Place winner of The Night Shift's Killer Competition 4/10/16 Illustration by: Stephanie Pitino (www.ClairObscur.fr) (1st book in series)

Destiny. It was a funny thing. I had always thought that I could create my own destiny. But after attending my junior year at Nox Haven, I knew that wasn't possible. My destiny was written two hundred years before my birth, when my ancestor- The Dark Warlock- created a cult of Dark Ones. It was my destiny to rid the world of his mistake- but I didn't know how. That was the funny part, I knew what I had to do but I didn't know how. Nobody wrote that part of the prophecy. I would figure it out though, two of my beloved friends were dead because the Dark Ones. I swore on their graves that no one else would follow. **Book Three in the Nox Haven Series**
