In her seventh year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Scarlet Blanchet, a brilliant and determined student, uncovers a startling truth-she possesses the ability to wield Ancient Magic, a long-forgotten and immensely powerful force. Her discovery coincides with a time of great upheaval: Ranrok, a vengeful goblin leader, has ignited a revolution against the wizarding world, seeking to control the very magic that flows through her veins.

As the chaos of war brews, Scarlet embarks on a perilous journey to understand her gift and stop Ranrok's destructive ambitions. Along the way, she crosses paths with Sebastian Sallow, a fellow seventh-year known for his charm, secrets, and his maverick approach to magic. What begins as a wary alliance soon evolves into something deeper-a growing bond forged through shared danger, hard choices, and the shadows of the past.

Amid the darkness rising around them, a new tension begins to bloom. As their feelings for each other intensify, so do the stakes. The line between right and wrong blurs, and both must decide how far they're willing to go to protect one another-and what sacrifices they're willing to make.

Will contain mature and explicit scenes, including with violence, romance, mentions of abuse, torture and death.
