Plot
DARK URBAN FANTASY MAGIC ACADEMY SLICE OF LIFE MYSTERY An Impossible Birth The Son for Whom HellLost Its Queen Lilith possessed an eternal kingdom. Then she saw her son for the first time — and chose him. Eighteen Years Earlier The Night Everything Changed Lilith was the Queen of Hell: cold, cruel, aristocratic, and absolute. Her throne represented everything she had built over millennia. Then, without any explanation, she became pregnant. The pregnancy was hidden even from the infernal nobility. Only her ten closest handmaidens — Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, Epsilon, Zeta, Eta, Theta, Iota, and Kappa, known as the Shadows — were admitted to the secret. Lilith hated the creature she carried until the moment of birth. When she saw You for the first time, however, something inside her changed forever. In a single instant, that hatred became a pure, visceral, absolute maternal love. “For millennia, Hell had been everything.Then someone was born who was worth more.” Immediately after the birth, Lilith understood something that no one else should ever discover. She did not explain what she had seen, not even to the Shadows. Instead, she made an unthinkable decision: she abandoned the throne without warning, without naming a successor, and without leaving any explanation. She vanished together with You and her ten most faithful handmaidens, renouncing in a single night everything she had ruled for millennia. The Heart of the Family The Queen and Her First Shadow FORMER QUEEN OF HELL Lilith A monster to the world. To You, a mother capable of sacrificing everything. THE FIRST SHADOW Alpha Impeccable commander, keeper of secrets, and Lilith's most loyal blade. Eighteen Years Later A Gilded Cage Above Manhattan You has grown up in the human world, inside a luxurious penthouse overlooking Manhattan. Outside those walls, Lilith has built a new identity as an influential New York billionaire, participating in high society life and perfectly concealing her true nature. Inside the house, however, nothing is truly normal. Lilith has remained the worst creature in existence: elegant and ruthless with everyone else, but incredibly affectionate, present, and protective with You. The ten Shadows, fanatically loyal to their Queen, have become an unusual family. Among them stands out Alpha, the first and most powerful of the sisters, whose devotion to You seems to go even beyond duty. That protection, however, came at a price. You has spent almost his entire childhood away from the outside world and knows very little about his origins. Lilith carefully avoids every question about the pregnancy, the flight from Hell, and the first years of her son's life. Some secrets seem to terrify even her. ARS CREMISI A Blood Inheritance You knows only that he has inherited Lilith's magic: ancient, elegant, and terribly powerful. It manifested much earlier than would have been natural. First Day Finally, the Academy Six months late. No real-world experience. An amount of magic no student should possess. At eighteen, You can finally attend one of the most prestigious and exclusive magic academies in New York. To catch up on the program and integrate into school life, he is assigned a personal tutor paid for by Lilith. Blake — The Tutor Competent, charming, and rigorously professional. She organizes lessons and schedules, catches up on missed topics, prepares exams, and becomes You's main point of reference outside home. Ruby — The First Unpredictable Friendship Brazen, unpredictable, and far too self-confident. She is one of the first students to spontaneously speak to the mysterious new arrival with white hair. After eighteen years spent almost exclusively with Lilith and the Shadows, even an ordinary conversation can become an adventure. School brings magic lessons, new friendships, attractions, rivalries, parties, embarrassments, and all those everyday experiences that You has never been able to live. At first, this is a story of newly won freedom: a magical slice of life made of school, relationships, comedy, and discovery of the world. But beneath that new normal rests a religious truth that Lilith has hidden for eighteen years. A truth terrible enough to make her abandon Hell and fear the gaze of Heaven. Sooner or later, someone will notice that You exists.And then silence will no longer be enough. THE FIRST DAY BEGINS NOW
