  “We have to help her,” I told Sera. Sera was pounding on the wall with more vigor now also.

  “But we can’t go through the wall,” Sera complained. “Stupid magic,” she shouted at the wall.

  A flash of gray caught my eye behind Grace. I could see someone was coming near.

  “Grace,” I shouted to my friend. Grace didn’t move from the ground.

  The gray was getting closer. I knew it wasn’t my friend. Nikkan was blond, not gray, and this wolf was gray. I could see it nearing Grace, approaching like she was prey. I pushed harder on the wall. Grace was going to die if we didn’t help her.

  “GRACE,” Sera screamed.

  Grace still didn’t move.

  I needed to save her. I needed that magic within me. I needed to protect my friends.

  “Magic protect them,” I began to chant in my head over and over again. I might not feel my magic or know what it was, but I needed it.

  I leaned into the wall and pushed harder. I felt a crack in my hand but ignored the pain. I would never let my friend die right in front of me. I was stronger than that. I was stronger than the wall. If there was indeed magic in me, I needed it now. I needed to be fierce like the black cats prowling in the night. I needed to be scary like the bears that lived far from civilization in the woods. I needed to be fast like the owls that were catching their prey in the darkness. I needed to save my friend and stand up to the monstrous wolves.

  More bones cracked in my hands as I pushed. I would save my friend, no matter what. With that determination, magic began to swirl around me. I let out a scream myself as I pushed harder now. I could feel it. There was magic in me that Sera and Mal saw. It was really there, and it was going to save my friend.

  It felt like an eternity, but the wolf prowling behind Grace hadn’t taken one step as I pushed through the barrier and landed on my hands and knees. The world seemed brighter to me but less colorful. I didn’t wait to see what changed as I rushed towards the wolf that was hunting Grace. The wolf looked at me and took off back into the woods but not without me catching my reflection in his eyes. I wasn’t a human or a wolf. I had made it through the barrier for one reason only. I was a panther. The magic inside me made me a shifter.

  A note from the author

  The Kingdom of Fairytales authors hope you enjoyed this new way of reading. We don’t think that a series has ever been set with one chapter a day thought a whole year before a
nd we hope we did it justice.

  With this in mind, please leave a review, but when you do, remember that these books were always meant to be short breaks in your day and the blurb reflects that.

  We would LOVE it if you can drop us a few words on Amazon

  About J.A. Armitage

  J.A lives in a total fantasy world (because reality is boring right?) When she's not writing all the crazy fun in her head, she can be found eating cake, designing pretty pictures and hanging upside down from the tallest climbing frame in the local playground while her children look on in embarrassment. She's travelled the world working as everything from a banana picker in Australia to a Pantomime clown, has climbed to the top of Mount Kilimanjaro and the bottom of the Grand Canyon and once gave birth to a surrogate baby for a friend of hers.

  She spends way too much time gossiping on facebook and if you want to be part of her Reading Army, where you'll get lots of freebies, exclusive sneak peeks and super secret sales, join up here

  Somehow she finds time to write.
