'It had always been a gift I had...to notice things; to notice everything. Sure, I could kill someone with my bare hands, and I could solve 7 line equations in less than half a second at one glance; but memory is always a girl's secret weapon...so I guess I'm kinda...deadly.' Eloise Buckley was never normal, she had lots of things that she never told anyone...so she never got close to anyone, but most of all; she thought she was alone. That is until she is enrolled into a school by the father she couldn't remember. A school for spies. Where Eloise's talents are...normal. But no matter how utterly exceptional Crestfield Boarding School is, Eloise simply wasn't born to go through life unnoticed.

Everlance Academy
He croaks his head and his winning expression makes me think I said something wrong, something to give him the upper hand. βSo you took that as an insult, huh? Or were you rather disappointed?", the corners of his lips twitch, almost making him smile and he looks down at me, challengingly. βWhat? No! Of course I wasn't-" βThat's it, isn't it?", he interrupts me and steps closer, if that was even possible. Suddenly he lifts his hand and pushes my chin upwards, ever so gently, so I'm looking right in his eyes, βyou wanted me to say... what exactly? That's the reason you came to me when Theo wouldn't leave you alone as well, right? You wanted to be close to me." I wanted to be close to him? He was the one practically pinning me against the wall right now.
