The Taxonomy of Ruin
"The world does not pity weakness. It dissects it."
Entering the cold, limestone walls of the Aethelgard Institute for her senior year, Shadowfeather Black expected the isolation. She expected the heavy, suffocating weight of her family's name.
She did not expect Class 1-A.
As the only girl in an elite, cutthroat classroom ruled by cold intellect and dangerous hierarchies, Shadowfeather is immediately marked as an outsider. On day one, they try to misdirect her, to humiliate her, to push her into the dark.
But Shadowfeather does not break.
The boys who rule the front rows look at her with venomous friction and freezing hostility. They want her gone-but beneath the hatred lies a dark, terrifyingly calculated intensity. They don't want her here, but they won't let anyone else touch her, either.
In a school built on secrets, survival is a cold science. Welcome to the curriculum of obsession.
🖤 WHAT TO EXPECT:
Dark Academia Aesthetics: Gothic halls, high-tech grids, and a suffocatingly intense atmosphere.
The Lone Girl: One girl standing completely unbothered against a sea of elite, hostile heirs.
Absolute Devotion: A slow-burn, hostile-to-protective dynamic where loyalty is unbreakable and betrayal does not exist.
Pure Mystery: High stakes, sharp minds, and secrets woven into the very architecture
