The final term at Nocturne Academy has begun... and something dark is stirring beneath the surface... Avery Being gay in the magical world means hiding who you are-or paying the price. I've learned to keep my head down, stay close to my coven, and survive the football team's cruelty one insult at a time. But nothing prepared me for Saint, my new roommate. There's a haunted look in his golden eyes... and a monster under his skin. A Cursed Drake lives inside him-possessive, obsessed, and terrifyingly fixated on me. He whispers of "cuddles," but there's violence in his desire. I should be running. Instead, I'm drawn to both the boy and the beast. Saint My whole life, I've been taught to fear what I am. To hide it. To fight it. But the curse burning inside me grows stronger every day. And when Avery came into my life-brilliant, brave, and already carrying wounds of his own-the fire inside me turned to obsession. He soothes my madness. Calms the chaos. But the Drake is hungry... and it wants him. If I give in, I'll lose myself. If I resist, I might lose him. At Nocturne Academy, love is forbidden, dragons are cursed, and being different can get you killed. But some things are worth the danger.
