At Virelune Collegium, power decides who survives.
Lyra was never meant to belong.
Marked as something the Collegium cannot control, she is pulled into a world of secrets, rituals, and dangerous truths—where every move is watched, and every weakness is exploited.
And then there’s Caelum.
Cold. Calculating. Untouchable.
The most powerful student in the Collegium… and the one who chooses her.
What begins as protection quickly becomes something far more dangerous.
Because the closer Lyra gets to him, the harder it becomes to tell what’s real—and what he’s made her believe.
And in a place built on control,
falling for him might be the one mistake she doesn’t survive.
This dark romance contains mature themes, including power imbalance, emotional intensity, and morally complex character dynamics. Reader discretion is advised.
