A dark academia retelling of Beauty and the Beast with laces of Greek mythology. 

Lucy is human in a family of powerful sorcerers. Growing up sheltered, Lucy's life takes a turn for the worse when her sister falls victim to a deadly spell.

Hell bent on saving her sister, Lucy marries into a dangerous family of sorcerers and moves to an old gothic chateau in the middle of France, only to find her fiancé is not quite the monster she expected. But with historians disappearing and death magic being used for the first time in history, nothing is as it seems. 

Gods whose names are long forgotten are awakening, and a certain death deity has made her his enemy. 

Torn between love and duty, trapped in a game of madness and death. Lucy's best shot at survival is to embrace her cunning and her cruelty: traits she never thought she might possess as she transforms from a gentle wallflower to a dangerous spy. She is determined to succeed, but what will it cost her?

"It's yours," I say when she merely stares, eyes flicking back and forth between it and myself. Calculating, processing. Wondering why on earth I would just hand it over to her. That's the question of the day, isn't it? The answer is because she's the revolution now. She's grown into the exact person I thought she would become - needed her to become. Every god needs a believer, but I can't say I expected to ever be the one kneeling. I used to want to lead the world. Now I just want to watch her remake it. I step closer, slowly, carefully. Like I'm approaching a predator. Because I am. Her head tilts to the side, confusion swirling amidst the cold calculation. My eyes travel down her form, cataloguing everything that's changed about her. Her stance is more rigid, her hair tamer, posture perfect. The wild, emotional girl is gone. And in her place is a queen in the making. -------- Verena Ebonmere was never meant to stand out. Her magic was bound, her family tried to forget her, and even at Hogwarts she's just another face in the crowd-until a mark blooms against her skin, thorn-shaped and burning with power she doesn't understand. Now everyone seems to want something from her: a professor whose charm hides something far more dangerous, a boy whose visions of rebellion could consume them both, and a person whose gentle smile conceals secrets older than the school itself. Pulled between desire, loyalty, and the lure of her own unraveling power, Verena must decide whether she's the prey everyone expects her to be... or the crown they never saw coming. *NO HARRY POTTER KNOWELDGE NEEDED!!* *I do not own any of the world building or settings, but all characters and plots are my own :)*

Genre: Romance | Mystery | Drama ⚠ WARNING BEFORE YOU ENTER ⚠ This is not a love story. It's a story of secrets, betrayal, and the price of trust. Every smile hides a blade. Every embrace could be the last. The people you meet here are liars-even the dead ones. If you think you know the truth... you don't. Read carefully. Every chapter is a clue. Every word could save-or destroy-them. And when you finish, ask yourself only one question: Who would you trust when everyone wants you dead?
