In the shadowed corridors of Demon Reform Academy, a sinister presence slithers within the veins of its victims, promising a darkness more violent than any demonic power.

For the last three months, I survived the desert campus filled with vicious demons while being haunted by the scars of my past. But when students began succumbing to the grasp of dark magic, my power spiraled out of control, intent on consuming every bit. With an uncanny ability to devour the darkness infecting others, I became a beacon for the attention of Dark Veil, the depraved society pulling the strings behind it all.

With the violent snap of matebonds, the Fates bound my soul to five demons. Three of my fated mates, once enemies, dropped to their knees, apologies ringing hollow against the echoes of their torment last term. But even with the ache in my heart, two other matebonds connected me to caring, loving, and safe demons-the embodiment of what I had longed for in a mate.

As I struggled with my newfound powers and my matebonds, Dark Veil showered me with gifts, drawn to the 'untapped potential' they sensed within me. I refused to bend to their will, determined to destroy the darkness they sought to wield-but what I wanted wasn't on their agenda.

Matebonds, former enemies at my feet, dark magic infections, and the looming threat of a dark magic cult-this term at Demon Reform Academy promised a whirlwind of danger and desire.
