Link to the short story.

Sable Rounds had everything a seventeen-year-old could want. Except parental love. But that changed when she spoke to a whirlwind...and it answered. 

After she discovers her talent in magic, her parents took notice and give her all the attention she'd craved before. But not affection. Only avarice.

The question her parents ask is how to use her talents in magic now that their waiting period is over.
