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.

Rumor
Cursed with the Devil's gifts, I've lived my whole life hiding who I really am. To the world, I am simply the daughter of The Phoenix, the most sought after courtesan in all the lands. I could never compare to her grace and beauty. And that's all I can afford to be or the Church will come after me. I'll keep my nose down and work hard to care for my brother. Even though I know someday he'll leave me for a better life, just like everyone else does. When the new apothecary in town knocks down my door demanding to take me for an apprentice, I can't decide if its a blessing or curse. Adam is coarse. His home is a meticulously clean mansion far outside of town. He can't seem to stand being in a room with me for long. He has no problem telling me off. But he's awakening something inside of me. Something powerful. If only I could keep the Devil at bay. 🌶=spice *attempted SA* warning
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.
