A group of seemingly ordinary teenagers discovers they are anything but. Each possesses extraordinary abilities-powers they never asked for and barely understand, from shapeshifting and invisibility to time manipulation and matter control. Elemental gifts, stolen bloodlines, and ancient curses awaken within them, bringing a terrifying realization: the fate of the elemental realm-and the survival of magic itself-is in their hands. If they fail, the balance will collapse, and the magical world could vanish forever.
Among them, Mason Cohen harbors a dangerous secret. He is a Wildborn, part of a cursed bloodline that knows the truth about the Cursed One-the girl whose very existence could tip the scales of magic. His mission is clear: locate her, monitor her, and prepare for what must be done.
When he meets Aurora Gaultier, a girl whose powers seem unusual but harmless, he sees an opportunity. She willingly helps him, believing his intentions are genuine, and Mason finds himself drawn to her in ways he was never meant to be. Falling in love was never part of the plan, and every moment they spend together complicates his mission-and his heart.
The closer he gets to her, the harder it becomes to keep his secret. Every stolen glance, every shared moment twists his mission into something dangerous-something intensely personal. And when Aurora eventually uncovers the truth, the world they thought they knew will shatter.
Trust becomes a weapon. Love becomes a gamble. And the line between friend, enemy, and lover blurs. Mason was never supposed to care-but protecting Aurora might cost him everything. It wasn't meant to happen this way. It wasn't meant to happen at all.
But fate, as always, has other plans.
