I thought the Academy was a prison. I didn't realize it was the only thing keeping the monsters out.
I threw myself through a vortex to save my guys, but now we're trapped in a place that shouldn't exist—a realm of raw, intoxicating magic that is as beautiful as it is lethal. This dimension doesn't just hold us captive; it's getting under our skin, changing my companions in ways I can't control. I see the primal hunger in Ludo's eyes, a frantic desperation in Alexis, and a growing darkness taking root in Cosmo that scares me more than the monsters in the mist. But the biggest threat isn't the realm. It's the power waking up inside me. The "dud" of Validus Vale is gone. In her place is a source of magic so rare that the power-hungry will stop at nothing to possess it. I've become the ultimate prize in a game I don't know how to play. Back at the Academy, the Conclave is no longer hiding in the shadows. Their corruption has turned the school into a gilded cage where status is a weapon and trust is a death sentence. While the Elite families play their twisted games of bloodlines and betrayal, I'm learning the true cost of my inheritance. And still, somewhere in the silence between worlds, a piece of my soul is still missing. I have to find him—before the darkness swallows us all. Book two significantly raises the heat level of this paranormal academy reverse harem romance.
