The One Running Things Akari Nakamura has spent fifteen years being reminded that she was never supposed to be part of the family. To her brother, she's a bastard child. To her father, she's a mistake. And to the rest of the world, she's just another girl trying to survive. But Akari has learned one thing from being controlled her entire life: She never wants to be powerless again. After her old life comes to an end, Akari awakens in a world of magic, royalty, secrets, and bloodlines. A world where her name means something. A world where people listen to her. But there's one problem... The more power Akari gains, the more she begins to wonder whether she's becoming to wonder whether she's becoming the very kind of person she once hated. A new life. A new name. A new rule. This time, Akari isn't going to be the one being bossed around. She's going to be the one running things.
