Estrella Asferis

Fleeing her pursuers, Aurelia leapt into a portal—never expecting to end up in an anomalous zone. Here, nothing is what it seems. Even meeting a young sorceress may yield unforeseen results. But what if they are not alone? What if certain figures have been trapped here for years, waiting for the chance to break free? Are they all allies—or could there be an enemy among them? Virten, searching for Beth’s trail, meets her friend in an unexpected place, who want to help. Yet as their search drags them through different circumstances, they sink deeper into the shadows of the past, whose darkness could bury every hope for the future. Can Virten bring Beth back into this world? What will prevail: love, or the dark intentions of several beings who want to achieve their goals at any cost?

Within the walls of the Academy of Martial Arts and Espionage, the fates of two beings collide —Virten, heir to a clan of werewolves, and Aurelia, a drow girl hiding from her own kin. From their very first meeting, a spark ignites between them—one they both spend years ignoring, maintaining friendship and covering each other's backs on dangerous Academy missions. But when Aurelia’s relatives find her, she is forced to flee, leaving behind everything she holds dear. Virten is forced to ask the Academy's curator for permission to marry, as his parents insist. Yet imagine his shock when he learns he is already married. To whom—and how? What binds these two beyond friendship? Can the feelings they’ve long buried be brought to light? And what will it cost them, when danger lurks at every turn?
