Quitting school hadn’t been an easy decision to make. From a young age, I’d vowed that I’d be educated, and while I hadn’t decided on what I’d do beyond getting rid of the immortals, I did have ambitions to go to college someday.

Thankfully, the fae had an equivalent to a GED, so if I didn’t return, I still had options.

My parents, who I initially thought would be disappointed, had hired a tutor instead, surprising me.

Both Dad and Gloria were strict about grades, so after I’d gone home after walking out on Hornora, I’d expected a blowout, but instead, they got a hold of the Hoofers. Together, they all decided to pay a tutor for all of us until we decided what to do.

Thankfully for Michael, the administration at the Wyrm Academy decided he could graduate with them if he wanted. However, he still wanted an education in our realm, so in time, he’d likely join us or have his own tutor.

As the weeks passed, I missed school and longed to return. It didn’t help that Hornora and Yooper were writing almost daily.

When I quit, I thought it would be easier to get past Jared’s death because I wouldn’t see all our main hangouts anymore, but instead, I wanted to be there to be closer to him.

At times, it was tempting to respond to one of the many letters from the teachers, but I stood my ground and ignored them. They all sat unopened in my desk drawer. We’d all decided to be a united front on this when we quit, so I pushed those feelings away.

So when my letterbox shook, I ignored it, figuring it was Yooper or Hornora. It was just past five in the afternoon, which was the usual time for them to try to contact us through our letterboxes or faecomms.

Instead, I focused on the essay the tutor had assigned me but was distracted seconds later when Sierra entered the room. Anger coursed through me as we gazed at each other.

She wasn’t getting along with Justin from what I’d been told, and she’d been trying to move in here, but my parents and everyone else told her she couldn’t.

Gloria had told her the first night that they loved her, but out of respect for me, she should stay with someone else or return to Foothills to take up her position again, and my parents stood by that.

It didn’t stop her from coming over daily to beg them to let her stay, though. She usually remained for hours pestering me before leaving.

I knew she was staying at her biological father’s, and I didn’t understand why that wasn’t enough. She’d always wanted to get to know him, anyway.

I believed she should just go back to Foothills, too, though. When I learned she’d quit, it made me even angrier with her. Instead of trying to take the initiative to do better, she ran away.

“Amber—” she began, but I interrupted, telling her to get out. “Look, I know you hate me—” she continued.
