Academy of the Wicked: Year Four

In Year Four of Wicked Academy, death is no longer a threat—it is a language.
Gwenivere survived the Infernal Realm.
Survived the throne.
Dared to survive herself.
But rebirth leaves scars.
The fire that judged her in Year Three did not fade—it branded her. The crown remembers her name. The realm still whispers. And the truth she uncovered has torn her in two.
Because Gwen is not alone within her own soul.
Gabriel lives beneath her skin.
Twin. Heir. Shadow.
Two destinies bound inside one body—one forged in rebellion, the other born to rule.
The academy no longer hides what she is. The professors no longer pretend. And the realms beyond Wicked’s gates no longer kneel to illusion.
This year is not about survival.
It is about reckoning.
Cassius stands at her side, burning with loyalty that borders on ruin.
Zeke offers mercy in a world that devours the soft-hearted.
Nikolai fights for redemption in a realm that remembers every sin.
Atticus watches her with immortal hunger and unwavering restraint, a predator who chose reverence over possession.
Damien is bound in quiet submission, sewn into devotion for the sake of redemption.
And Mortimer hunts the ancient laws that chained twin souls into one—chasing a future where Gabriel and Nikki might finally be freed from the curses written into their blood.
But love cannot untangle a throne carved into her bones.
Every trial now demands more than magic.
More than strength.
More than sacrifice.
Year Four demands choice.
Gwen must decide which half of herself will remain when the last gate opens.
Which name will be crowned?
Which soul will rule?
Because Wicked Academy was never meant to create heroes.
It was built to awaken gods.
And when the final wickedness rises from beneath its foundations, mercy may be the one thing the realms cannot afford.
The queen has awakened.
Now she must decide what kind of monster she is willing to become.
