Winter Ball: The Northern Academy: Dark Romantasy: Black Dragon, Magic Academy, Enemies to Lovers, Second Chance

An arrogant dragon shattered my pride. Years later, he’s back to take everything else.

My first year at the Northern Magic Academy was supposed to be the beginning of my dream. Instead, it became a public humiliation when Maximilian, a ruthless black dragon, broke my heart and trampled my pride. I swore I’d never let another dragon hold power over my life again.

Years later, he’s back.

Now an elite inquisitor sent by the Emperor’s Council, Maximilian has returned to strip away my freedom, destroy the life I’ve built, and take everything I’ve worked so hard to protect.

He expects to find the naive, fragile girl he left behind.

But I am no longer that defenseless student.

I will fight for my life, my magic, and my future—and no black dragon, no matter how powerful or terrifyingly attractive, will stand in my way.
