Bianca is not what Isadora expected.
From the moment Isadora Sinclair saw sixteen-year-old Bianca Monroe in the paths, nothing happened like it should.
Unexpected delays.
Prickling intuition.
A sense of foreboding and expectation.
All of it accompanies Bianca to Isadora’s cottage for the first time.
As a Watcher, Isadora has interviewed countless witches and read futures filled with danger, promise, fear, and power. But Bianca’s intensity reveals paths unlike anything Isadora has encountered before.
And with every glimpse, one realization begins to rise.
All is not as it seems.
Something dark is building.
A confrontation long in motion is showing signs of culmination.
And somehow, it hinges on this wild forest girl.

I LOVE the ending of this readers request. Haven’t seen this moment between the sister witches before…you won’t want to miss it!
When you read the Isadora interviews you see and feel what each of the students felt while Isadora was looking into the Paths of each of our favorite people. This short story is from Isadora's point of view. Reading it now instead of directly after reading the first interview book would almost spoil some of the insight into Bianca's life. It offers potential into what if yet at the same time as the knight in the Indiana Jones movie said to Indi "you chose wisely" Read it which way you choose, either way will give you new insights into Bianca.
