And while I downed that potion to qualify—the one with fifty percent chance of killing me—what were you doing?That’s right. Opening your bleeding heart to a random woman and accidentally binding her to your magic. (You know, that minorly important thing your 'condition' requires for survival?)And that—that’s not even the kicker, is it?You should be popular with the ladies—you have that whole ‘strongest-vamp-in-academy-history’ thing going, right? But congratulations, you found the one exception, because Briar Bishop hates you.To add to everything, she’s untrained (and insane). Come the trial, demons are going to eat her alive, and she’ll take your magic with her—magic she’s now burning through, it seems, just to spite you.And who is the one left to clean up this mess?Right.Me.Where are my matches? I need a bloody smoke.……*ahem.* The Witcher meets Zodiac Academy in a slow burn four book romance. Broody vamps and shifters. Enemies to lovers. Monsters and magic. Check. Check. Check.

Yeh, so, you know how I left Briar dead to rights in that damned trial? Well somehow, she’s absolutely bloody fine. She’s happily skipping afternoon classes to hide what demon she killed and spends the evenings with Axel. (Who saw that one coming?)The real problem for me, though? Something happened to me during the trial, something dark, I know it’s their fault, the prince, his mutt and the woman who ruined my life... moreYeh, so, you know how I left Briar dead to rights in that damned trial?

(Who saw that one coming?)The real problem for me, though? Something happened to me during the trial, something dark, I know it’s their fault, the prince, his mutt and the woman who ruined my life.So, I’m stuck with a form that demands blood (just lovely), and now cocky-vamp-prick, Locke Fang, is hounding me to choose a source while he angles for Sylas’s territory. Not that it’s my business—so naturally, I’m caught right in the middle of it.Call it karma, or a grand bloody joke, but whatever’s going on demands I keep a connection to the very person I tried to kill. There’s only one way for me to do that without sinking lower. You and your stupid fang earring happy now, Locke? I chose my damned source.But there was one thing that I didn’t factor into the equation, and that was Madora Rose, herself.……The Witcher meets Zodiac Academy in a slow burn four book romance.

Right. So you know that whole ‘come to the Academy for revenge on Nobles, and instead end up bound to one’ situation?Well. It just got infinitely worse.Not only did I give Sylas a chance he didn’t deserve (nice one, Briar), but now we’re in the last stretch before we leave to fight demons on a failing battlefront... moreRight. So you know that whole ‘come to the Academy for revenge on Nobles, and instead end up bound to one’ situation?Well. It just got infinitely worse.Not only did I give Sylas a chance he didn’t deserve (nice one, Briar), but now we’re in the last stretch before we leave to fight demons on a failing battlefront.Our disaster of a squad has been decided, and I am officially magic bound to:-My vamp ex who tried to kill me (twice)-The ex that was forced to torture me-My enemy, the Noble vamp who rejected me, but still needs my blood every week-And (thank theos) the bright light in a bleak future—my best friend.If that was our only problem, though. We’ve been banished to live alone in tower four while we wait for a huge, deadly beast to claw its way through the protection spell and kill one of us. (We still don’t know who.)I hope it comes for Greyson. I’m pretty sure the rest of us are happy to let it eat him. less
