I came to Gravewater to start over.
Then the sealed wing opened the night I arrived-like it had been waiting.
I'm a healer. Trained, competent, and running from the ashes of the institution that made me. I transfer to Gravewater Academy mid-term with grief in my ribs and thorn-pattern veins under my skin that darken every time I'm afraid.
Or aroused.
I barely survive my first night before the bricked-up west wing parts for me like a mouth, and four figures step out of centuries of patient hunger:
Renaut-the crown of the court, elegant and controlled, with a gaze that reads my pulse like a map.
Leontes-a scarred protector who stations himself between me and everything, including myself.
Isidor-scholar-sharp and amber-eyed, who teaches me blood magic like a ritual and pleasure like a lesson.
Athan-quiet, watchful, and the one who checks my wounds when I forget I'm bleeding.
They are ancient. Aristocratic. Vampiric. They feed on blood and Bond energy, and I'm the only one who can keep them solid.
The academy sees a conduit it can harness-a living battery for its crumbling wards. I see a siphon mechanism hidden beneath the Garden, designed to weld me into the walls.
I am done being useful to institutions that don't ask first.
One rule: no collars, no cages. My body, my terms.
And the court of hungry men at my back? They agree-with teeth.
