Never Sit Next to the Dragon

A young woman stands in an empty dorm room doorway with her bags on the bed behind her.

My room had a bed, a window, and a roommate who hadn't shown up. I dropped my bags, looked at my own face in the dark glass, and went straight back out.

Sitting alone in a new room felt like the start of a bad habit.

Synopsis

I was working at a laundromat and failing my online classes when Sundermoor Academy mailed me a student file. It says my kind is pending. Everyone else here can shift or cast or do something useful. I can make a vending machine hate me. The school gives me one clear rule: avoid the dragon shifter at the back table. Cormac is supposed to be dangerous. He's also the only person here who looks at me like I'm a riddle worth solving instead of a problem. I sit next to him anyway. Now the whole school is watching, and Cormac looks at me like I'm a riddle worth solving. I just hope he likes the answer.
