OBSIDIAN AND FROST
by Leia King

Damage. Craving. Ruin.
I didn’t see them coming.
Now I’m in their sights.
And it’s already too late.

I was made for war and twisted by shadows.
For years, I was hunted for what I am.
Now I’ve come to Wraeven Academy to build a new life.
Home to the feared, the hunted, and the deadly.

On my very first day, complications abound.
Three dangerous men orbit my new world.
Sylas Morgrave – A necromancer marked by death, he wears vengeance like a second skin. His magic tangles with mine, both dangerously and irresistibly.
Lazriel Thaine – A werewolf-vampire hybrid and underground punisher, all snarling dominance and savage restraint. He circles me like prey—a fixation barely tamed.
Cassius Ashmoor – A Fallen Celestial, cold and commanding. He sees our connection as a threat to his tightly controlled existence.

My enemies were meant to be gone.
It’s supposed to be safe at long last.
Until whispers turn to screams.
Threats become sinister promises.
The ones who tormented me are rising again.

I’ve always been afraid of the darkness within me.
But these three circling me at the Academy wear theirs like armor.
They teach me to do the same.
There’s always a price to power.
And that just might mean giving in to their hunger for me.
We’re all battle born.
But together, we’re merciless monsters.

After years spent in the darkness, I’m done running.
Let our enemies come.
Because now it’s time to declare war.
