Lila’s POV

“Lila, come to my office as well; I’d like to speak with you and Sarah together,” Headmaster Prescott said

to me, trying to be heard over the crowd of frantic students. Those affected by Sarah’s mind

manipulation were freaking out because of the time they had lost and their free will being taken. The

witches and those with abilities were frantic because they were powerless. Everybody was powerless. My

heart began to beat rapidly in my chest as I looked up at the headmaster. She didn’t think I had

anything to do with this, did she? “Am I in trouble?” I asked; I couldn’t hide the nervousness from my

tone. “No, of course not. But I’d like you to be there so I can get the full picture of this situation,” she

simply said. I met Enzo’s eyes from across the room; he was now standing and watching me with worry

in his eyes. I gave him a small smile to assure him that everything was okay and thankfully, he returned

it. “Enzo,” Headmaster Prescott said as she approached him. “Get everybody to settle down. They can

still vote to keep their minds off the situation… not that it’ll matter much anymore. But then I’d like

them to return to their dorms for the rest of the afternoon. I’m canceling evening classes. But I’ll make

an announcement, once I’m done speaking with the girls.” He nodded. “I’ll have some of the staff help

me get everything organized,” he assured me. She nodded at him, pleased by his quick response. “My

powers!” I heard someone sobbing. “My powers are gone!!!” “What happened to me!” I heard someone

else shouting. “Why did I do these mean things to people??” “Why can’t I remember anything from the

last two days!” A boy asked as I passed him. I wanted to say something to him that reassured him, but I

wasn’t sure what could make things better. My heart was squeezing painfully in my chest for them.

Headmaster Prescott was already gone and I knew I couldn’t keep her waiting any longer. Enzo was

already getting to work with the other professors to get the students to settle down. The board

members were lining students up to vote in the back room and ordering the really frantic ones back to

their dorms. I shook my head at the sight and turned away; I couldn’t watch anymore of this. When I got

to her office, I was surprised to see that Alpha Jonathan was already there. I didn’t even see him leaving
