All Mica needs is to rebuild. 

The shreds or her life, her parents' cottage, her heart.

After the raid on the Demarion Empire left her parents dead and her sister bitter and gone, all she has left are ruins. Hard work keeps her going, and the hope that one day she will be reunited with her beloved sister, Rose. 

As long as she remains hidden, that is. Blood mages like Mica can't speak of their magic. It's better off left a secret, especially when her kind is seen as a poison among the people, and to Rose as well. 

But when Mica's estranged sister enters the prestigious Imperial  Academy of the Demarion Empire, where talented young mages attend to hone their magic, Mica is determined to rescue the one remaining shred of her lost beautiful life. Keeping her magic a secret while utilizing it to enter into a reputable school of magic might seem impossible, but it is the only path left to Rose and happiness. 

Amid a school of persnickety royals, a stubborn sister, and a shady foreign prince, Mica will collect the remnants of her life and build a new happiness for the future.All Rights Reserved

And the blood in my veins says I belong here. But I have to prove myself to save myself. And when have I ever done that?

The city of Ember Hollow was alive, bustling with secrets that danced through the streets like whispers in the night. Everyone knew who controlled it all-the mafia boss, Kade Alistair. Ruthless, sharp-eyed, and powerful, he ruled the underground with a fist of iron. His name alone made men tremble and women disappear behind closed doors. But to the outside world? Kade was nothing more than a shadow, lurking just behind the veil of ordinary life. Kade had his own rules, his own empire. He didn't care about the outside world of kindness and naivety. All that mattered was power, control, and keeping his enemies in line. A cold-hearted king, untouchable, invincible. On the other side of the city, Elara Blake lived a different kind of life-one filled with light. She moved through the world with soft steps, kind words, and a gentle heart. Elara worked at the local flower shop, her days filled with the sweet scent of roses and the warmth of sunlight filtering through glass windows. She was the kind of girl who smiled at strangers and found joy in the smallest moments, unaware that her peaceful world was built on the foundations of darkness she couldn't see. Ember Hollow was a world divided. Kade's shadows ruled the night, while Elara's kindness bloomed in the daylight. Two worlds, completely separate, completely unaware of the other's existence...
