The Warden in the Gates

The town of Eclipse holds a secret, one that only the gated community knows; it has a school for the descendants of druids, and anyone living within the confines of the gates will develop a mark in their sixteenth year that allows them control over the elements and more. Des Grayson has worked her entire life to get into the Academy. She studied hard, hoping to please a strict father and get the best Placement Ceremony she could. And she got it, but it wasn't anything like she expected. Her mark is like nothing anyone has seen. While she's trying to deal with how different she is, she begins to hear whispers from everyone around her, all of them talking about another war coming; a war that she is supposed to start. To make things even more confusing, in walks Rayne; tall, dark and absolutely irritating. He says he's trying to help Des not start a war. The catch? She has to leave her friends and family behind, and follow him to safety. Which will she choose?
