They say legacy is an honour. For Hestia Vale, it's a death sentence.
Returning to Blackwell Academy should have meant routine-classes, late-night feasts, and avoiding her boyfriend Theo's temper. But when Cedric Velylor, Theo's guarded and infuriating cousin, transfers in, Hestia's carefully balanced world begins to crack.
Cedric isn't just new. He's connected-to Sinless, the covert assassin-and-spy network her father once led. And he's watching her like he knows exactly where her loyalties will fall.
When threats start appearing, friendships splinter, and the lake itself tries to swallow her whole, Hestia is forced to confront the truth: everyone she trusts is tied to the network. Some want to protect her. Others would rather see her burn.
In a world of secrets, the only way to survive is to choose a side.
The question is-will she choose the right one?
Dark academia. Twisted loyalties. A legacy written in blood.

Ruby Fridays
Everyone has their dark side but some- like 𝙍𝙪𝙗𝙮 𝙁𝙧𝙞𝙙𝙖𝙮𝙨, have the darkest. High school can be tough for many teenagers, but for her, it was peculiarly hellish. Clever as evil and twice as pretty, Ruby's beauty was both dangerous and lethal. Trouble always follows her, and strangely enough-she's familiar with the feeling of blood on her hands, and the glimmer of naked secrets and truths that keep her enemies up until sunsets and dawns. But when she got enrolled in a prestigious institution-the infamous, "𝙍𝙤𝙨𝙗𝙞𝙩𝙚 𝙇𝙪𝙨𝙩𝙧𝙤 𝘼𝙘𝙖𝙙𝙚𝙢𝙮," despite her tainted school records, she realizes that her ruined fate is already sealed by the almost perfect image of the school- that is nothing but a façade to masked the darkness that lurks within its whole vicinity. Like a twisted fate, as if reflecting Ruby's name, the Academy holds a sinister game of 𝐓𝐫𝐮𝐭𝐡 𝐨𝐫 𝐃𝐚𝐫𝐞 every 𝐅𝐫𝐢𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐍𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐬 And the official rules are simple yet sinister. 𝐂𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐭𝐡? You must reveal your deepest, darkest and most hideous secret. 𝐂𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐝𝐚𝐫𝐞? Well, that could be even more dangerous-even deadly. When the game takes an even darker turn with her appearance, suddenly no one at the Academy knows who to turn to and trust with the day by day murders in the broken mists. Yet in the darkness, 𝙆𝙞𝙡𝙡𝙞𝙖𝙣 𝙒𝙞𝙡𝙙𝙚, a disguised angel who's surprisingly Ruby's parallel counterpart, decides to interfere with her ruined path. Together with him, they will look for the missing pieces and connect them. Together, they will unravel the cases and reveal the secrets beyond the broken glasses of their hearts.

Sleight of Hand [Show 'em Who's Boss #1]
Two people sit in a dimly lit room playing a deadly game of fate. What led them to this game and who will win? We all have secrets that we don't want anyone to know; even ones we keep from the people we're closest to. When a dark secret is unlocked, Ebony Williams turns against her absurdly rich father, refusing to listen to his persistent reasoning and pathetic excuses. What he's done is wrong and unforgivable. Rather than just running away from home, over-confident Ebony plans to get her own back by scamming her father out of his entire fortune with the help of her not-so-perfect boyfriend and one of her father's biggest rivals. (This was previously called Show 'em Who's Boss.)Complete

Between rival sections, chaotic school events, and dangerous old ghosts creeping closer, she'll have to decide: Fight, fall, or run. Because in St. Augustine, love isn't gentle. And some enemies wear the face of someone you once loved.Complete
