All Jade Omrie wanted was to join Blackwood Academy and fight in the war against the rebels. That was her duty. Her calling. The one thing she had worked for all her life. She wanted to to use her magic for good... she just had to figure out what house she belonged to. However, only the sorting stone at Blackwood could determine what magical abilities lied dormant under her skin.
But when sorting day comes and Jade doesn't get the house she predicted, fear begins to eat at her. It's not because she didn't get fire magic like she hoped for or that she was barren of all magic... It's because she woke the one house that had been asleep for centuries, House Shadowson. And with its wake comes a mysterious, brooding house protector known as Nightshade.
And he does not like Jade one damn bit for waking him.

But when seventeen-year-old Ivy Vale, a seemingly non-magical orphan, is accepted into Hollowthorn under mysterious circumstances, the Sorting Spell does something no one has seen in over a century: It places her in House Umbra-a House that's supposed to be sealed forever. A House built for those destined to bring ruin. Suddenly, she's surrounded by whispers, side-eyes, and warnings. Everyone thinks she's a villain in the making. And the worst part?

But the deeper Ivy digs into Umbra's secrets, the more she realizes: she was never meant to be part of their system-and Umbra wasn't meant to be locked away. It was meant to rise.Complete

Throne of the Everflame
They called her cursed. They didn't know she was worse. Sold by her own mother at seven years old, Sayuri grew up in chains - first in a brothel, then in the grip of men who treated her life as currency. When fire and steel took that world from her, she thought she might finally be free. Instead, she found herself in a place where power has rules, and weakness has a price: Dawn Academy, home of the world's most dangerous warriors. Sayuri wants nothing to do with heroes or chosen ones. She wants to survive. But survival means mastering the Veil - a magic so feared that most people won't even speak its name. It means enduring brutal Trials that leave students broken... or dead. It means facing Elessa, the rival who refuses to be outdone. And it means navigating the fragile trust of Lyra and Korrin, the only people who might actually care whether she lives. When a mission goes wrong and a mountain falls, Sayuri's secret threatens to burn through every wall she's built around herself. Whispers spread. The Council watches. And enemies - both human and not - are beginning to see her as something more than a girl.

Soul Searcher
The day Elara Vale almost lost her sister, the world shifted. Roots tore through the soil at her touch, shadows bent unnaturally, and in one heartbeat, everything she thought she knew cracked apart. Her mother's truth followed soon after: magic was real, it lived in her blood, and it was time she faced the Academy. Caelestis Academy is nothing like Elara imagined. Towers carved with runes rise over a mist-filled gorge, students are sorted into factions of Earth, Water, and Air-and everywhere she turns, the absence of a fourth lingers like a scar. Soul. Erased. Condemned. Forbidden. While others wear their trauma like a badge, Elara carries only questions-and a secret she can't afford to reveal. Because the fire burning inside her does not belong to the earth she's been claimed by. It belongs to the one element the world has sworn to fear. Haunted by whispers, tangled in rivalries, and pulled toward friendships she never expected, Elara must decide who she can trust before the shadows beneath the school rise again. Some truths are heavy enough to break you. Others can set the world on fire.
