His Winter Sunflower by NLinke212

When it came to being a disillusioned youth Natalie Swift was ahead of the game. She'd already been noticed by the popular guy, had the teenage romance you binge-watch on Netflix, gotten her heart stomped on for her trouble and still had one more year to go. So when she walked into school the first day of senior year she had a solid plan to keep her head down and her headphones on. With any luck, she'd blend into the background and survive until graduation. Simple, right? Unfortunately for Natalie the universe had other plans for her and a split second decision lands her in unfamiliar territory with the most dangerous guy at school. Now she finds herself navigating blindly through missteps, misunderstandings, and an unmistakable heat that hints at something deeper. Is the fiery bad boy her key to overcoming her demons, or is she doomed to get burned again? Read more

Virtue [NEW] by BraveAngel_007

I didn't come here to make friends. I came to the academy to start a war. Luxbridge Academy isn't what they all think it is: a prestigious school created to right the wrongs of troubled kids. It's built to turn people like me into weapons-cold, obedient, deadly. And I was ready for that. What I wasn't ready for was him. My rival. My roommate. My biggest mistake. He's reckless, infuriating, impossible to ignore, and the one person I can't afford to distract me. But in a place where pain is currency and loyalty gets you killed, he became my only real ally. We were never meant to trust each other. Never meant to care. Definitely never meant to fall. But we did. We escaped the cage. We thought that was the end. It wasn't. Because fate doesn't break the rules. It breaks you. Content Warning: This story contains scenes of violence, psychological distress, and references to abuse that may be distressing or triggering for some readers. Reader discretion is advised.

Shadowbound by ThroughHerChapters

Velora Academy was meant to unite the realm. Light and shadow. Magic and legacy. But beneath its towers, something older is waking. And she was never meant to survive it.

And the one person who's never looked twice at anyone, is now the only one looking at her like he sees everything. In a school full of secrets, trials, and divided loyalties, she'll have to choose: obey the light... or listen to the dark. He was made of shadow. She was born in light. Together, they might just rewrite fate.

Shadows of Ash and Gold by lilainahinz

Avaryn Alastors life couldn't possibly get any worse. That's what she told herself the second her feet crossed the threshold of Crestwood Academy. But boy, was she wrong. She'd never wanted to attend the most prestigious stuck-up school only made for the rich and the smart. She'd never even wanted to apply. But tragedy struck her family and it had always been her moms dream. The first day she's there she makes a fool out of herself in front of the most popular group in all of Crestwood. And to make matters worse one of them is her roommate! They call themselves the Devara. (Stupid, she knows). And yet she can't help but feel drawn to them. Drawn to everything about them. So Avaryn does what she does best, she investigates. Only what she finds is a whole other dangerous world. A world of secrets and pain and even magic. The Devara is supernatural. They come from a whole other world. Not only that but they are heirs to this world. They are royalty. And with royalty comes enemies ... And now these enemies want Avaryn. And the only way she'll survive is sticking with the Devara. That is ... If she doesn't kill them first. Mystery, romance, death, lies. A plot twist you won't see coming. Shadows of Ash and Gold.

The Scars of Grandrews Academy by Lemontarts557

Before the Trio ever set foot in Grandrews Academy, their fathers were the kind of men who changed the world quietly-three brilliant scientists working at VESPER Genomics, a company that promised miracles and delivered secrets instead. They were geniuses. Pioneers. Men who dug too deep. And suddenly, they were gone. One "suicide." One disappearance. One unexplained illness. Three tragedies that never felt like coincidences. Three families ripped apart and shoved into the shadows. Their daughters-Elsa, MJ, and Lilah-were left with pieces that didn't fit. Missing files. Unasked questions. A silence so heavy it felt intentional. Years later, Grandrews Academy comes calling. A perfect school with perfect opportunities. Full scholarships. Guaranteed futures. And an interest in the Trio that makes no sense. Because Grandrews doesn't invite girls like them. It recruits them. The halls are too polished. The staff too watchful. The donors too familiar with their names... and their fathers' work. The closer the Trio look, the more the past claws back- whispers about VESPER, rumors about rituals, hints that their fathers were involved in something far bigger, far darker, and far from over. Grandrews Academy has been waiting for them. Not because of who they are- but because of where they come from. Their fathers tried to protect them. Tried to warn them. Tried to fight something no one should have been fighting alone. Now it's the Trio's turn to face what their fathers left behind. And at Grandrews, the past isn't buried. It breathes.
