** Harper's POV **

"Harper, would you like to come with me? Your lessons start today," a female voice whispers, startling me out of my thoughts.

I turn to see Sage standing beside my seat. How had she snuck up on me without my notice?

Other students turn in their seats to look at us and I feel a flush of embarrassment creep up from my chest to my cheeks.

I look at Archie, who smiles and gives me a nod of encouragement. "I'll catch up with you later," he whispers.

"As most of you will be aware, strong seer abilities are rare and for the first time in over thirty years, we have a student that potentially has the gift. To master this gift, she will need to practise. So this year two seers will read you. I expect you to be patient and treat Harper with respect as she perfects her skills," Deacon says to the room, and I cringe.

I can feel every eye on me and quiet gossiping assaults my ears as I follow Sage towards the front of the hall. I have never wished for the ground to open up and swallow me whole this much in my entire life. This is exactly what I didn't want to happen. I bet I'm as red as a tomato.
