Blackwood Academy

Fifteen-year-old Helen Ward, a perpetual runaway, secures a full scholarship to the elite Blackwood Academy, hoping for safety. She finds a gilded cage instead. Within the school’s fortified gates, vampires, werewolves, and witches play a lethal political game, treating humans as mere pawns. Helen discovers she wasn't recruited for her genius; she is the intended sacrifice for an ancient ritual. Refusing to be prey, she weaponizes her intellect to fracture the factions from within. In this ruthless world, Helen doesn’t just fight to survive—she fights to dismantle the system and claim the crown.
