Two witches pit against each other in a world of sorcery based on hundreds of years of prejudice and their own lifetime of rivalry are forced to form a reluctant alliance when an unknown demonic force causes students at their new school, Light and Dark mages alike, to be attacked.
* Iliana
I've been taught to fear the dark for as long as I can remember, and she has infuriated me for even longer. Even her face has always angered me, from her cold, indifferent stare to her taunting smile that's unbefitting for an heir. I despise her so much I can't leave her alone. I win at all costs, I am the heir to the Gonzales coven failure is not an option, and Adrienne won't interfere with that even if she might be the only one who can help me discover why Wilden Academy students, Light and Dark Wicken alike are being attacked.
*Adrienne
She's everything I despise. She's the embodiment of the Light Mages coven, filled with fake sunshine and a disreputable sense of entitlement. But I love riling her up even more. Seeing her perfectly sculpted image crack under my taunting is an unforgettable high. When an ancient presence makes itself known at Wilden Academy with students being attacked she realizes I'm her only chance of success, and as satisfying as it would be to see Iliana beg, I'm determined to protect my own from these attacks,
