They expected me to fall in line and fade away as if their sky blue eyes would brainwash me as they continued to torture me. I was the new girl, but I was no princess. They may be the Kings of Hawk Academy, but when I find out their secrets, I’m going to bring them and these old walls tumbling down. Author's Note: This is book ONE in a THREE book series.
