And the Unmarked-ordinary, powerless, bound by rules they did not make. The Unmarked are forbidden to leave, prisoners until the hidden goal is fulfilled. None question it. None dare rebel. Until Xanthine arrives. She is reckless, loud, and far too curious for her own good. She is reckless where others are quiet, foolish where others are careful.

But the Whispers of Aethelred are stirring again. And once awakened, they cannot be silenced. Will she dare to rebel to unfold the truth behind the all whispers of Aethelred? "Hear us"

Whispers of dark magic, strange occurrences, and the elusive Society of scholars who guard its secrets have drawn the curious and the daring alike to its gates. Sophia Marlowe was born into this enigmatic world, raised under the weight of the Estate's hidden power. As she unravels the mysteries of her family's legacy, she finds herself entangled in a web of ancient forces, forbidden knowledge, and a dangerous society determined to control it all. But the deeper she delves into the Estate's secrets, the more she realizes the peril of unlocking the past-and the heavy cost of wielding the Garden's power. With the fate of the Estate and the world beyond it hanging in the balance, Sophia must decide whether to protect the power that has consumed her family for centuries, or to destroy it forever. In a place where nothing is as it seems and even the land itself pulses with hidden magic, one wrong move could unravel everything. *The Secrets of the Blooming Estate* is a gripping tale of dark legacies, forbidden power, and the search for truth in a world where the line between magic and danger is perilously thin.Complete

[COMPLETED] The Academy For Genetically Gifted Children Book One: Genesis
COMPLETED // Highest Ranking: #12 in Science Fiction As the author I feel the responsibility to warn you of what you will encounter if you choose to read The Academy For Genetically Altered Children series: -a boy whose life depends on a rock -a lurking monster -a lot of sassiness -strange powers -a future that might not be far off from our own -a room full of weapons -strange, vivid dreams -bullies -children infused with animals -students disappearing - SO MUCH MORE // Even among a genetically altered society Andromeda Lovelace, Kai Kinsman, Layla DeStone, and Orion Hornthaw are considered far from normal. The GOP (Government Owned Property) Children were created, their genes professionally selected before they even came into existence. Birthed by surrogate mothers for the government, these four children have to discover just how they came to be, why they exist, and what the New Nation expects from them. At the age of twelve, they each are selected for the Academy for Genetically Gifted Children; an institution for "special" children. There, they will face insane tasks, meet a diverse group of kids and adults, and uncover secrets about themselves, the academy, and the government--ones that might better be kept hidden. Meanwhile, something sinister is haunting the academy's grounds and the GOP Children are facing inner battles of their own: Andi is having drastically realistic nightmares, Kai's life depends on a rock, Layla is hearing screams and whispers, and Rion has secrets of his own. Join the four GOP Children on a journey that may make you question things about yourself, the future, and what is right and what is inhumane in a world that may not be so far off--and maybe, just maybe you'll even see a little bit of yourself in each character. // This is my first novel, so I'm fairly new to this haha.
