No one would guess that the ordinary-looking wooden object on his desk contained something so important or that the lives of several people, including Oksa, depended on the canvas rolled up inside! She was so amazing. His heart raced when she gazed at him with her slate-grey eyes… she was the prettiest girl he’d ever seen. The prettiest, fieriest and most magical—he probably wouldn’t ever meet anyone like her again in his whole life. From the first day he’d seen her, looking uncomfortable in her school uniform, he’d realized she wasn’t like everybody else. After observing her covertly for months, he’d become convinced that she possessed magic powers—which she’d eventually, and reluctantly, admitted. However, despite Gus’s warnings, she’d never had any reason to regret telling him the Pollocks’ secret: he’d never breathed a word to anyone. He’d never referred to it in public and had never dropped any cryptic hints. And, because of his discretion, Oksa and her family had come to trust him implicitly.
