A strange tingling sensation rushed over my skin. My face burned, My hands raged with fire. I looked down as fur and claws appeared on my nails and knuckles. I rushed back to the mirror as a thick furry mane and a beast-like face stared back at me. I screamed, but it came out as a roar. I slammed my mouth shut, my heart pounding even louder, banging against my ribs as if it's tried to escape me. The curse. I hadn't escaped it after all.
My arms trembled. This couldn't be happening. Not to me. Not now. I grabbed the mirror from the top of the dresser and tossed it to the ground with a growl. The wooden frame splintered as the mirrored glass smashed into shards. But no relief came. Instead, the destruction only fueled my rage. Heat coursed through me, electric and strong. I bit my tongue and tasted blood, trying to calm the beast inside aching to be set free. I didn't want this. I wanted to be me again. I needed to be me.
The strange itching tingle started again, but this time when I looked at my hands they were mine again. I touched my face. Smooth young skin spread out beneath my fingertips. I knelt down beside the broken mirror and my own face, my real face, reflected in every single shard, staring back in fractures like a spider's eye.
Relief washed over me, but only for a moment as pieces started to fall in place, even though big gaps in the puzzle still remained. Edwin said he felt something in my blood. I arrived right after the curse was broken, and no one knows where I came from. Maybe I wasn't their miracle baby after all. Maybe I was phase two. I fell back onto the floor as the idea rammed my chest like a flock of arrows, each one piercing my skin and leaking poison into my blood. Could this be because of the darkness? Or maybe the curse never really went away. Or, the one thing that made sense of all this; maybe everything was my fault. Maybe the problem in the castle was me.

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 and 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.
