Book One in the Mage Trilogy
"I'm a mage, Noel. Are you even listening? The powers that I hold are vastly beyond your comprehension."
"Should I be offended that you insulted my comprehension?"
"No! No, no." Marcus laughs out almost in a panic, but Noel is able to make out a true laugh. "I mean, Noel, that I care too much for you. To see you get hurt-".
"Marcus," Noel interrupts, not wanting to hear anymore nonsense. "Does it look like I remotely care by the fact you're a mage? Hell, I think it's honestly freaking awesome. No matter what, you're you, mage or not, and I'll love you either way."
~Popular and nice don't always seem to go together, but those are two words that can be used to describe Noel Dale's personality. No one says a bad word about her. Especially the shy, quiet kid that sits behind her in English. In fact, he doesn't speak to anyone about anything. Though, what happens when the popular girl and the shy, quiet kid begin to form a relationship? What will being in a relationship with a Mage entail?
