Thankfully, the term was keeping me busy enough that time passed quickly, and I hadnât had much time to dwell on anything Baron had suggested about the Morrigan. However, it appeared that my best friend had plenty of time to dwell on things that didnât require nearly as much of her time or attention as she was giving them.
âItâs not that I have anything against Alec, specifically,â Iris lamented, keeping her voice low as she and I made our way up to our first class of the day some weeks later. âItâs⦠Man, I donât even know how to explain it to you in a meaningful way because youâre not clairvoyant.â She shrugged her backpack higher up onto her shoulders and gave me an apologetic look.
âSheâs never done anything to you or to me,â I shot back, feeling beyond exhausted from having the same conversation with Iris every single day. âSo frankly, I have no idea what your problem is with Alec, but at this point you have to accept the possibility that itâs just you being hyper critical for no reason.â
And she had been. It felt like every time I said more than three words to Iris, the conversation would somehow take a turn, and sheâd once again let me know for the billionth time that I should be careful of the harpy. She said I should not be so trusting, and that she just knew there was something fishy about my new friend. Of course, Iris couldnât tell me what exactly was fishy. It was just âsomething,â and that, according to her, should have been enough to get me to distance myself.

âWow, Iris,â I rolled my eyes. âWhat a nice thing to say about someone you really know nothing about.â
Irisâ brow furrowed, and her lips pursed in a tight line. âSunny, you know Iâm the last person on the planet to pass judgment without good reason. Look at me! Folks judge me all the time! And you know what!?â Her voice rose, and I urged her to keep it down, because the last thing I needed was her causing any problems for me.
She sighed and leaned closer to me. âIâm not even judging her. I-I mean, not really. All Iâm saying is that Iâve had this magic for a long time, and Iâve never had this happen before. Iâve never been completely unable to read someone.â
âWell, to be fair you shouldnât have been trying to read her mind to begin with!â I shot back, now going against my own request to keep it down. âI mean, what were
