I’m starting magic school today.

I am starting magic school today.

I’d been repeating this to myself since before sunrise when my brain refused to sleep any longer. I was too excited. When I was a kid, my parents had let me go to Edenburg, but I wasn’t ready for that. I thought I was special because of my parents’ jobs and got mad when no one treated me as such. It was ridiculous. I knew that. But it took me far too long to realize it, and by the time I did, I didn’t want to admit it to my parents. Because I’d told them I hated it and never wanted to go back. A big part of me still regretted that.

But it didn’t matter now. Because The Coven had opened up the School of Magical Arts right here in my hometown. I wouldn’t have to live in a dorm. I wouldn’t have to leave my home city and all my favorite places. It would be just like going to my regular Sapien private school. Except better, because it was for magic.

It was all starting today, and I was ready.

The Upper West Side had always been a secret favorite of mine, and today was no different. Everywhere I looked, there were all different types of people. Young children walking themselves to school with their backpacks on. Women in dress clothes and running shoes jogging by to catch their train. Parents with strollers and little children. And dogs.

This school was a really, really big deal. The first of its kind. Since the beginning of our species, the only place to go was Edenburg School, and that was only in Eden. Far from where most of us lived. And the thing was, I didn’t want to be Lead Page like my mother or city Major like my father. I didn’t want to be a healer or a Knight. I just wanted to live a somewhat normal, albeit magical life.

And that wasn’t the kind of thing Edenburg taught. There was a good chance SOMA would be just like that, but at least now I could still live at home. Besides, after what happened at the gala, I needed to learn more of what Edenburg taught. Memories of that night came rushing to the surface, but I shook myself and forced them away. This wasn’t the time for pain.

The front doors of school were wide open so I hurried in. My mother had told me how beautiful the school had come out, but she’d been playing it coy for sure. It was elegant and chic, classy but totally and completely welcoming. The massive
