Magic isn't extinct, it's concealed by a pissed off redhead. Kira struggles to find balance between pretending to fit in with her fellow villagers and the one thing that makes her stand out--her magic. Only her best friend Rylanne and her aunt know of her ability. The world as she knows it would sooner execute her than accept the gift she was born with. Until a tragedy introduces her to Addrick. His fiery red hair matching Kira's makes him stand out far more than his arrogant attitude. But what draws her in the most is the same symbol she wears around her neck tattooed on his arm. It connects them to a world thought long extinct, a world where Kira can finally be herself. However to be herself risks destroying everything. ____ If you are reading this anywhere but Wattpad.com, it was stolen. Please visit wattpad to support the original author.
