There are dozens of schools in the prosperous country Talvonia, but only one is reserved for the prodigies - The Academy. The Academy has over 100 floors; the higher the floor, the higher the students rated on the intelligence test.
Starling, who boasts the highest score in the history of the Academy, lives on the top floor. When the Elders choose Starling to attend a raid for collecting information on the Zaithcarp rebel group's leader, she is thrilled. But after being captured by the Zaithcarps and meeting its young leaders, she realizes her beloved Talvonia and its Elders may not be as upstanding as they seem.

Love, Aurora
Aurora has always had one goal; to study and get as far away as possible from her house. Life was never easy for her but it seemed to get worse when her mother died. Years after her mother dies, she gets a letter. A letter saying she got into West Beverly Academy, a boarding school in London. She never wanted to go, she wanted to spend her last year of high school with her family before college but since it was what her mother wanted, she decided to go for it. Milo was definitely not the guy with the perfect life as shown on cameras. He was a racer- a car racer and was popular for that. But noone really knew what was going on behind those cameras. Because trust me, its as fucked as you could possibly think. But being strong, he dealt with it. He put on the show and dealt with shit behind the curtains, no matter how hard it was for him. He had an ego, and had a terrible attitude, but for once, those two personalities got him the girl. On the first day of school, Aurora sits on Milo's seat- typical right? But Milo let's it slide, even with Aurora talking back. But as revenge? Filling up Aurora's locker with sand and humiliating her seemed like the best choice. But he doesn't realise how much he actually needs Aurora. Way more than you think. Read along for a boarding school romance with lots of drama!Complete
The knights: Chronicles of the Six

And apparently, they're the universe's last hope. A hidden force is rising, and it starts with one of them - harboring a power that could either save everything... or destroy it. Idk tho... So yeah. No pressure. Oh, and me? I just hope you enjoy it. Watch out though, because once you start reading, well... good luck stopping. ππ
Wings of Fire, Arc Four, Book One: The Uncertain Future
In the light of the Breath of Evil's defeat six months ago, Prickle never expected her parents to get the brilliant idea to ship her off to Jade Mountain Academy, despite the constant assassination-attempts and frequent judging glances that seemed to be the norm at that inter-tribal heck-hole. The math/history assignments would be torture, too; and with her first day ending in a strange, surreal dream where a cloaked dragon upon a black throne promises the world in exchange for simple information on the school, Prickle's not quite sure she's the one to investigate the possibility of spies, stop the mysterious figures that seek to do moons knows what with the academy, save the faculty, save her friends, save her grades, dodge the 'sometimes unhappy' principal's disapproval, and stop anything bad from happening. Easy, right? Now, her only issue is a matter of time; all before it's too late.Complete
πππ πππ πππππππ ππ
πππππππππ ππππ was just trying to get to her summer internship at the hospital. Same route, same bus, same quiet daydreams about the boy who sat nearby but never close enough-untouchable, unreadable, and completely out of her league. πππππ ππππππ has always been out of reach. He's the golden boy of Hillcrest Academy: captain of the basketball team, top of his class, and a ghost of Gabriella's quiet admiration. To her, he's just a distant crush. To the world, he's practically perfect. But perfection means nothing when the city splits open. A sudden sinkhole. A police cordon. And a last minute diversion that takes their bus miles off course, leaving them stranded in a part of the city that doesn't exist on any map. Worse? They uncover something they were never meant to see; evidence of a powerful syndicate conducting illegal experiments on society's most vulnerable. Forced into hiding with a group of rebels and nowhere left to turn, Gabriella is trapped in close quarters with the one boy she's never been able to stop thinking about, and he's far more complex, volatile and possessive than she ever imagined. But in the pressure of confinement, chemistry ignites, jealousy simmers, and the truth might tear them apart before Aegis ever gets the chance.Complete
This is Not My Home
What defines a home? Maybe it's where we lay our heads at night. Maybe it's the people we love and care for. Maybe it's a place away from civilization, or a feeling that can come only when we are at our greatest moments. Ollie Sky thought she knew the answer, enrolling into an academy she'd been asked to join. She was going to find a new home, one away from her family. She was going to make friends and join communities. Learn new things and perfect old skills. Life had been good, living in that academy. As one of its youngest students, she was always daunted by the large hallways, the professors, the students themselves. But most of all, the technology. Including time travel. Looking back on the question she was asked so long ago, it becomes obsolete and answerless. She has no home, no academy, no family, and no friends. A sixteen-year-old, trapped in a timeline that is not her own. ~ : ~ | + | ~ : ~ This is a prequel to Name by @Mizuthe_cat, following the character "Ollie."
