Eighteen-year-old Ria, a fire elemental and privileged student at the University of Magic, thinks nothing can get in the way of her happiness. Even when she falls for Michael, a boy whose element is different from hers, she is determined to make their forbidden romance work.
But when she starts experiencing the symptoms of magic disease that could rob her of her element, turn her into a cold-blooded killer, and shatter her life, all of her beliefs are put to the test. The only one who might be able to help her is Adrian, a mysterious, charming, and dangerous magic disease carrier, who also happens to be her least favorite person in the world.
Genre: JUVENILE FICTION / Love & Romance“Ms. Milanez?” I heard my professor’s voice and realized he must have asked me something, and I hadn’t responded. Great, I was always so lost in my thoughts.
“Um, yes?” It was my first week at the university and the professor already knew my name. But that wasn’t strange since he probably knew my father or had heard of my family. My father was more than generous when it came to giving donations to the university.
“Answer the question, miss,” he said. Yeah, I would totally answer it if I knew what it was about. Too bad Magic Studies consisted of a theoretical and practical part, and we were stuck with theory. Would they ever let us do something with the damn magic?
“I don’t know,” I said.
“The question or the answer?” The professor raised his eyebrows at me expectantly, and the whole class was watching me in silence. Oh, just perfect.
“The answer.” I thought it was better to say I didn’t know the answer than admit I hadn’t been paying attention.
“You don’t know what happens to a person with the magic ability when one gets magic disease?” He glared at me incredulously. Oh, crap. Of course I knew. Everyone knew that one.
“Sorry, I forgot,” I lied and flashed him a smile, hoping he’d let it go.
“Well, Ms. Milanez, it can be a serious problem if you truly don’t know,” he said. Some students started giggling, and I frowned. What the hell? Why was he making such a big deal out of it? But I still couldn’t just let it go.
“Are you implying that I’m lying?” I asked.
“Of course not.” The corners of his mouth turned up, and he looked around the classroom for the next victim. I so hated that guy.
