Never Sit Next to the Dragon

Cormac sits rigid, eyes fixed forward, as Nell settles into the chair beside him.

He didn't move. Not a flinch, not a glance.

He sat so still that I got the weird feeling that if I stayed quiet enough, he'd decide I was a draft and stop noticing me.

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.
