A tattoo can mean two things:
hidden royalty... or certain death.
In the world of Sumit, tucked deep in the Ashe Mountains, Suneta hides both.
Marked with the royal crest against her will, Suneta is sent to Majia Academy - a school where magic is currency, legacy is law, and everyone seems to know their place... except her.
As she searches for answers about the sister who vanished and the power she never asked for, she's forced into a squad of five other cadets - all carrying secrets of their own:
A runaway heir.
A girl who talks to magic like it's a memory.
A quiet boy who doesn't know who he is without someone to protect.
A noble caught between bloodline and betrayal.
And a girl who mastered invisibility - until it stopped working.
The crest binds them. The academy watches them.
But if they're going to survive what's coming... they'll have to decide what kind of legacy they want to leave behind.

Blending in is her only chance at survival; until Riven, the brooding new arrival with storm-gray eyes and dangerous secrets, shatters her carefully built facade. When sparks fly in combat and whispers of rebellion stir across Elarion's divided cities, Athena is pulled into a storm of secrets, betrayals, and a slow-burn tension she can't ignore. To protect her friends, and herself, she must choose between staying hidden or stepping into a truth powerful enough to unravel the realms.

The Siren's Shadow
Naia grew up believing she was ordinary - a human girl with a mother who spoke in riddles and a past wrapped in secrets. But when her quiet seaside town is torn apart by a magical attack, she's thrust into a world beyond her imagination: Umbra Academy, the Grand School of Magic standing at the crossroads of four realms - Light, Dark, Potion, and Human. Among angels, demons, and fae, Naia discovers her powers are far from normal. The academy's crystal marks her as Potion Realm, yet something inside her resists the classification - flickering between light and water, shadow and song. Whispers of an ancient bloodline follow her, and a mysterious mark on her wrist pulses with power no spell can contain. When Kael, a dark and brooding protector from the Dark Realm, saves her life, their fates entwine in ways neither understands. But secrets rise faster than trust, and a goddess from the depths - Lyra, daughter of the Sea God - arrives to claim Kael as her own. As Naia uncovers the truth about her lineage - the forbidden love between a siren and a great sorcerer, and the wrath of a god who wants her dead - she must decide what she's willing to sacrifice: her heart, her humanity, or the fragile balance of the realms themselves.Complete
