A year in a concrete hellhole has to be better than a lifetime with a lecherous old perv. Right?
At least, that’s what I told myself when I buried a steak knife in my ‘fiancé’s’ gut. My father didn't just arrange my marriage; he sold me. So, I did something an Elite princess should never do: I fought back.
Now, I’m trading my ivory tower for thirteen months in Quo Reformere—a place where magic goes to die and girls like me are nothing but carrion.
For sixteen years, the height of my power has been choosing the color of my leotard or the style of my manicure. I was raised on pliés and protocol, not shivs and survival. But in Quo Reformare, the Null-Wards will destroy my magical spark, my own name is a target, and I''m surrounded by hundreds of felons who see me as the Elite enemy.
I’m fronting like I don’t care, but the truth? I’m shaking in my pointe shoes. A perfect fouetté is about as useful as mud when you're caged in the dark with desperate, delinquent men.
But if they think I’m a fragile bird to be plucked, they can think again.
I’m Aurora Drakeward. My spine is made of steel, and my spirit is unbroken.
Probably.
Hopefully.
Maybe.
Eff. My. Life.
