At the Salvatore School for the Young and Gifted, secrets are nothing new. Witches, vampires, and werewolves live side by side, learning to control their powers and survive in a world that fears them.
But some secrets are far more dangerous than others.
Clarke has spent his life trying to prove himself worthy of his father, the ancient monster Malivore. Determined to uncover the truth behind Malivore's plans and free himself from his father's shadow, Clarke begins watching the students of the Salvatore School.
That's when he notices her.
Raven Volkov Bennett-Parker.
Quiet. Observant. Brilliant.
A witch whose magic is far stronger than anyone realizes.
When Clarke discovers Raven's abilities, he forces her into a dangerous alliance. If she helps him gather powerful artifacts connected to Malivore and aid his plans, her secrets remain safe.
If she refuses... everything she fears will be exposed.
Reluctantly bound together, Clarke and Raven begin as nothing more than allies - two outsiders working toward different goals.
But the more time they spend together, the more the lines begin to blur.
Because Raven is hiding far more than Clarke could ever imagine.
And Clarke may not be the monster she expected him to be.
In a world built on destiny, power, and monsters, two people who were never meant to trust each other may discover something far more dangerous than magic.
Choice.
