Mistaken Magic

Once upon a time, I was a typical foster kid-overlooked, bounced around, and just waiting until I was old enough to get out. Some girls in my situation might dream of being a secret fairy princess, but not me. I simply wanted a chance.
It came by accident when a bird flew into my latest home. No big deal, right? Except that was all it took to get noticed. Now I'm heading to Silver Oaks Institute, an elite private college with very specific acceptance criteria. My caseworker got me an interview on a technicality, and when they say elite, they mean it.
See, this is a school for fae and half fae refugees. Just one little problem with that: I'm human-completely, totally, and without a doubt. There's not a drop of magic or fae blood in me, just a few coincidences that keep happening around me.
I somehow have to navigate the rules of the fae, too many arrogant people, a suite-mate who's so pretty she has to be using a glamour, and now that bird is back. Yet in a school filled with secrets and magic, how was I to know being normal might make me the most interesting thing here?
Interesting enough that this is starting to feel like a fairytale.
I'm not the princess, though. I'm going to be the knight in shining armor.
