       After a little convincing and some explanations, Jeff finally agreed to be part of the team. Excitement coursed through my veins as my mood instantly lifted. The past week's events had been so stressful so far. I was afraid that my grumpy mood would linger forever. Last night before I went to sleep, Laim sent me a message that made me nervous.

      He said that he will be coming, and that I will be his queen-no matter the cost. I shivered as I remembered the words. Kalemia and Audrenia were speaking in the living room as I was curled up in my bed. Past events played in my head as I reminisced about my past memories.

      I silently wished that I wasn't the Virgo representative. Everything would be easier if I lived a normal life. A normal life without having to duel with other zodiacs or magic casters. A life with no drama that involves the other representatives. I just wished with all of my heart that I was like other girls.

        Deep down inside-way below the surface, I wished that everything was normal. But it's not. I'm never going to live a normal life. I'm never going to not have to deal with other magic users. This is my life, I'm stick with it. There's nothing I can do to change that. If Liam is who I think he is, then things are only going to get worse as things progress. I can't continue putting people in danger.

       I either accept Liam, or I hurt everyone around me. This life is hard, but it's my life. I can change the course of it anytime I want-no one else.  I'm just gonna have to hike up my skirt and charge through it.
