THE DIVIDE

Hundreds of years ago, a race of supernatural beings called Mystics and humans went to war, almost resulting in the extinction of Mystic-kind. The Council, often seen as the Gods of all Mystics, created a rule that would prevent this from occurring again-Mystics must mask as human and can't interact with other Mystics to lessen the chance of exposure. Their existence is now only ever written as myth. Are these stories of history, passed down from Mystic parent to Mystic child true? Or is there something deeper, darker going on? *** Michaela (Mika) Corey is an eighteen-year-old Druid who lives her life pretending to be human. She's loyal to the rule, but the seclusion puts her in a box she struggles to fit into. When she meets Iris Blake, her outlook on the human world and Mystic world shifts. Mika is presented with what's true and a task that she can't refuse because the future of Mystics are at stake. The Divide is created by Neradia, an eGlobal Creative Publishing signed author.

Chapter 27: Glass

I stay at the hideout until sundown, until the newcomers go home for the evening, before I leave for dinner. Home to my parents who think I spent my day at the library, again, instead of meeting other Mystics and learning their life stories—to an extent.

I know I can make more stuff up if they ask any questions, but how much can I make up until it’s overkill? A big bag of bullsh*t? A bigger bag of bullsh*t than the last few times I went out? I can’t lose control. I have to stay in control, as much as the Council is in control of us. That level of control.

Not to the point where others aren’t in control of themselves.

Nevermind. I’ll stop. No more stupid mind rambles.

I turn the door knob, slow and hesitant, and step inside, closing the door behind me. They’re not in the kitchen. The T.V. sounds like it’s on. I take my hat off, tossing it on to the island. “I’m home. The library, super boring.” I groan, walking into the living room. “Quiet, too.”
