At Veyra Academy, the children of monsters are trained to survive, manipulate, and never trust love.
Elara is only human, and that makes her presence on campus a dangerous mistake. After witnessing a political murder she was never meant to see, she is forced into a fake engagement with Prince Soren, the academy’s most feared vampire heir. Cold, ruthless, and impossible to read, Soren is supposed to protect her. Instead, he becomes the one person she cannot afford to want.
As court politics tighten and secrets turn deadly, Elara is dragged deeper into a world of blood, power, and betrayal. In a school where everyone is hiding something, their lie begins to feel dangerously real. What starts as a contract becomes a test of loyalty, desire, and survival.
