There are many reasons someone would try to hide from the world. One of them is that they don't belong in it.
Adira Taliesen has never really bothered about anything. She's homeschooled. She doesn't have friends. She has a home, if you can count the small apartment where she stays with her stepdad. There's a reason why she stays away from people.
It's because where she goes, a trail of dark follows. Tears. Fights. Misunderstandings. And once, and only once, bloodshed.
She has dreams every night, dreams that feel realer than reality. She hides it. Hides the sketches on pieces of paper, hides the pain, hides how different she is. But you can't hide who you are forever. And when people enter her life who know more about what she is than she does, Adira will never be the same.
