But the competition to see who will be the next Queen of the Magical World has ended their friendship. Worse, Vanilla has embraced the Dark Magic of the Ogres and is now an enemy of all witches. While trying to coax Vanilla out of her deep enchanted slumber and take her away from the Ogres, Chocolat discovers something about herself. She’s a Filtre–one who has the power to change sickened, black noir hearts to white! Meanwhile, Chocolat’s crush–the Ogre prince Pierre–has infiltrated her school. What is his plan? Chocolat wants to believe that deep down Pierre means well–but how can she?
