"Calm down, just calm down." He thought to himself as he tried to even out his labored breathing, it it seems to just have made it worse. His breathing became shorter and harder causing him to clutch his chest as the bitter December air seemed to attack his throat. "Jairo." A soft voice rang out, though his head was still pounding. It caught his attention, "Jairo, you have to calm down, take deep breathes. I promise you're okay." He didn't feel okay though, it wasn't working. "I'm trying." He gasped clenching his eyes shut, he balled up his fist hitting his chest before falling to the ground. Suddenly he stopped, everything stopped.

In Glorystone, a town cloaked in wealth and tradition, Elaria Academy is more than just a school for the elite-it is a gatekeeper of ancient secrets and spiritual legacies. Selene Hartwell arrives expecting prestige and perfection, not prophecy. But when she crosses paths with Asher Sinclair-the arrogant heir with a dark past and a guarded heart-her world begins to unravel. Their connection is undeniable, but so is the war waging beneath the surface. Together with four others-Talia, Josiah, Zaria, and Cairo-they are drawn into a hidden realm of generational curses, mysterious scrolls, and a powerful enemy that doesn't fight with swords, but with deception, fear, and spiritual bondage. As friendships deepen and romance blooms, the six must confront not just what lurks in the shadows of their school... but what haunts their bloodlines. With the help of a spiritual mentor, they begin to awaken gifts they never knew they had-gifts forged through fire, prayer, and destiny. But loving each other means laying down pride. Fighting this battle means dying to self. And stepping into their call may cost them everything. Elaria Academy is a gripping Christian romance filled with spiritual depth, sizzling tension, found family, and a reminder that the real war isn't against flesh and blood... but against powers far more ancient than they ever imagined.
