Ang Ivory Tower - ito ang tawag sa pinakamataas at pinaka-sagradong gusali sa loob ng Vampire University. Dito nakatago ang lahat ng lihim, kapangyarihan, at kasaysayan ng kanilang lahi. Sabi nila, ang sinumang makapasok at makaunawa ng mga lihim nito ay makakakuha ng kapangyarihang kayang baguhin ang takbo ng lahat.
Dahil tao si Elara, akala ng lahat ay wala siyang kinalaman dito. Pero habang tumatagal, siya lang ang laging napapansin ang mga kakaibang bagay - mga aninong sumusunod sa kanya, mga bulong na siya lang ang nakakarinig, at mga palatandaan na tila hinihintay siya ng Tore.
Ang pitong makapangyarihang lalaking laging nakabantay sa kanya, sila rin ang nagbabantay sa Tore. May kanya-kanya silang dahilan kung bakit nila siya inaayaw, inaalagaan, o kinatatakutan. Unti-unting lumalabas ang katotohanan: hindi lang basta napasok lang si Elara sa paaralang ito. Siya ang susi. Ang dugong akala niyang simpleng tao lang, ito pala ang matagal nang hinahanap ng lahat - ang dugong makakapagbukas o makakasira sa Ivory Tower magpakailanman.
Sa gitna ng dilim, mga lihim, at damdaming unti-unting nabubuo, kailangan niyang mamili: gamitin ang kapangyarihang dala ng kanyang pagkatao para iligtas sila... o hayaang lamunin sila ng mga aninong nakapalibot sa Tore.

Reincarnated as the Seventh Princess Book 3
Reincarnated as the Seventh Princess (Book 3) A happy ending is such a strange and cliché phrase for Yvonne, a girl who never even had the chance to begin her story before death claimed her life. Now, in the final chapter of her journey, she must face trials far crueler, bloodier, and more devastating than ever before. As her first year in the academy nears its end, tragedy descends upon the Empire of Elior, staining its halls with bloodshed and grief. The bonds Yvonne once trusted will begin to fracture as her faith in both her friends and family is put to the ultimate test. At the same time, the secrets hidden within the kingdoms of Elior slowly unravel before her eyes. Buried beneath centuries of silence lies the truth behind the suffering, discrimination, and oppression endured by the women of the empire. And for the first time, the ancient beings who have long remained indifferent and hidden from the world may finally open their gates to her. The path she must walk is merciless filled with sorrow, betrayal, and loss. To uncover the truth behind the woman whose soul has long been intertwined with hers, she must delve into the mysterious deaths of Eliana and Elaine and confront the dark origins of Elior's corrupted history. Yet the closer she comes to the truth, the more she risks losing the people she loves. How will she endure the pain of watching those dearest to her disappear one by one? What will happen when the Agrigent family learns the horrifying truth about the real Eliana? But perhaps the cruelest fate awaiting Yvonne is the possibility of meeting the very people responsible for her death in her previous life. If given the chance to face them again, what and who will she choose? In her final story, will Yvonne finally find the happy ending she has always deserved? Or perhaps this was never simply a story about happy endings, but about the magic of living, loving, and finding the courage to tell the story of how she became the Seventh Princess.
Behind the Pages
Apat na babae. Apat na sugatang kaluluwa mula sa iba't ibang sulok ng modernong mundo. Walang nakakaalam kung paano, ngunit isang mahiwagang libro ang biglang nagbuklod sa kanila. Isang librong walang pamagat. Walang pahina. Walang kwento. Ngunit sa oras na binuksan nila ito, ang kanilang mga buhay ay unti-unting naisulat... at ang mundong akala nila'y kathang-isip lamang, ay totoo pala. Sa mundo ng Ravaryn at Kestramore, dalawang haring nagpatayan dahil sa poot ang nag-iwan ng pamana sa kanilang mga anak-mga prinsipe na may dalang kapangyarihan ng hangin, lupa, tubig, at apoy. Kasama sa kanilang kapalaran ang Prinsipe ng Firesse-isang kahariang nabura sa mapa ng mundo. Ulila at walang nasasakupan, ngunit pinili ng Bathala upang maging ikaapat na haligi ng kapalaran. Ngunit sa likod ng kanilang lakas, nakatali ang isang sumpa. Kapag ang kanilang galit ay umapaw, lilitaw ang wangis ng halimaw-isang nakakatakot na anyo na maaaring pumatay ng inosente. Isang sumpa na maaari ring maging biyaya: dahil sa oras na makita sila sa anyong ito, kapalaran na ng kanilang kalaban ang kamatayan. Ngayon, ang apat na babae ay naging bahagi ng kwento ng mga prinsipe. Ang akala nila'y sila ang sumusulat ng kanilang kapalaran sa loob ng libro-ngunit ang totoo, sila mismo ang isinulat. At sa dulo ng lahat... kailangan nilang pumili: Babalik ba sila sa sariling mundo? O haharapin nila ang katotohanang maaaring sila ang susi upang iligtas-o tuluyang wasakin-ang mundong ginising nila?
