Hey😅 so I'm def not done with this book, I just took a break because I'm doing graduate school applications, which takes a lot of writing- and when I have free time, writing is the last thing I wanna do haha. But I should be done soon! Sorry for any typos! I wrote on my phone again. Enjoy the chapter.

I wonder if any of your suspicions were right-?

Gianna's POV:

My heart was thundering in my ears as I descended the stairs, catching from the corner of my eye that Serena and her friends were glaring at me.

When I was finally in front of the class, I let out a breath before I turned around. I regret this so much. The class is alot bigger from down here, and all the creatures had their eyes fixed on me.

Feeling my confidence fades and my hands shake I pushed myself to continue before I ran out crying, again.

"C-c-coul." I stopped trying to catch my breath. I could hear the giggles and whispers around the class which wasn't helping.

"Uh. C-could you t-turn the lights o-out?" I questioned the professor quietly. I cringed as he leaned in to hear me.

"Turn off the lights!" he yelled causing me to jump. His loud voice echoed in the silent hall and thanked the gods someone turned off the lights before I cowered under everyone's stares.

Once the lights were off it was easier to breathe. I could hardly see anyone besides the occasional glowing eyes in the crowd.

Taking a deep breath I released my butterflies.

"Powers don't have to be big"

I repeated Abyss's words.

"They can be beautiful and warm."

I released as many as I could

I released as many as I could. The fluttering wings lit the hall in a soft warm flow, like a fireplace in winter.

I used the skills I did improve on last semester and choreographed the butterflies around the room flying in one big mass, fluttering over people.
