Magical High
769 Views · Ongoing · chevau123
Some girls are born with magic. Cora was born with a curse.
After her own family calls her a demon and sets a hound on her heels, twelve-year-old Cora flees into the woods—alone, afraid, and carrying a name she never asked for: SUCCUBUS.
Rescued by a strange old woman named Sadie, Cora finds shelter on a quiet farm at the edge of a tight-knit village. But the nights are strange. Sadie whispers Latin verses as she oils Cora’s hair, and with each passing day, Cora feels something dark and hungry unfurling inside her—something that aches in the moonlight.
Then she meets Logan.
Logan is the village outcast: too scrawny, too quiet, and hopelessly invisible. His brother stole his crush. His father beats his mother. And the only girl who ever smiles at him is the beautiful, golden-skinned new arrival with the eyes of a doe and the scent of roses.
But the town remembers the witch hunts of twenty years ago, when magical beings—werewolves, fairies, and demons—were hunted and killed. And as Cora’s power grows, so do the whispers. A stolen necklace. A fight at dusk. A midnight swim in a moonless pond.
In a village where magic is a death sentence and desire feels like betrayal, Cora must decide—run again, or claim the only boy who ever looked at her like she wasn’t a monster.
