Just as she promised, Serina pushed herself to be fine. She stopped crying late in the afternoon and started doing things that she stopped doing. She realized that she had been a coward, that she had been playing safe. Except for Damon, no one really knows what kind of soul was living in her. Natalya knew she was powerful but she didn't know where her power came from. Corinne didn't know either.
Inside her room, she read the books that Elder Alina gave her and started practicing her magic. This is something she could to shift her focus. She won't accomplish anything if she keeps crying. Her class will start two weeks later so she had ample time to be alone. And even though she was trying to go back to normal, she still chose to shut off everyone from her life. No one was able to reach her.
'Rina?'
