Silent Storm

The Silent Storm Academy, renowned as the pinnacle of academic excellence, and a safe haven for those born with the Altered Gene, known as Altere. However, in the Academy's long history, there have never been two Principals at the helm, but the destinies of Marie Stanislaus and Vanessa Terrell have always been inexplicably intertwined.

From a bloody race war between their respective nations and households, ended only on paper, to their falling in love with Dorian Marx, a man who, with the help of Cordelia, an evil witch, deceived them both, almost destroying the Academy, killing their friends and family in the process. A horrid deception proving to be the catalyst for the forging of an unbreakable bond between the two, who are forced to kill the man they love, and father to their unborn sons, Jason and Riley. Despite the terrible losses suffered, and the shame of carrying bastard children for a monster, Marie and Vanessa soldier on and jointly assume the helm of the Academy, embarking on a lengthy process of rebuilding and modernization, much to the ire of Marie's aging father, Ike Stanislaus, who still clings to the bigoted ways of the past.

18 years on, Marie and Vanessa find themselves summoned to a gathering of the Council of Allied Nations, to publicly answer for the unsolved kidnappings of newly awakened Altere. Calls are made for the assignment of joint leadership of the Academy to the Central Defense Force, headed by the crooked General Kross, in the absence of immediate improvements; an ultimatum which could finally prove to be the pair's undoing as Cordelia shows her hand, revealing her involvement in the kidnappings, while also promising to unite their sons with their long-lost father.

As Marie and Vanessa begin to question themselves, horrified by the idea of their former lover still being alive, the public's faith in the Silent Storm dwindles, and Cordelia grows more confident, inching ever closer to the realization of a diabolical plot.
