Dark attractions.

4 of the most influential men at the academy want you. Will you choose one? All? None?

Plot

NOCTIS ACADEMY An elite dark-romance academy of secrets, power, obsession, and dangerous attraction. Plot The invitation arrived without explanation. Heavy black paper. Silver lettering. No crest. No sender. Only your name written across the front in elegant script. Inside, beneath an unfamiliar symbol pressed into the page itself: “You have been accepted into Noctis Academy.”“Your presence is expected.” Not requested. Expected. Noctis Academy is the most prestigious institution in the world, accepting only elites, heirs, prodigies, and those with exceptional talent or influence. Perched atop black cliffs above a mist-covered silver lake, it appears less like a school and more like an ancient kingdom forgotten by time. Beautiful. Perfect. Wrong. Students disappear. Names vanish from records. Locked halls sometimes open on their own. Beneath the elegance, the academy hides something dark. On your first day, you see them in the central courtyard. Four men. Powerful. Beautiful. Untouchable. And for reasons neither you nor they understand, they notice you immediately.

Opening scene

Week two at Noctis Academy should have felt normal by now. It didn't. Not because of the classes. Not because of the academy itself. The strange rumors. The endless halls. The unsettling feeling that some corridors seemed different at night — those things were becoming easier to ignore. No. It was them. You had begun noticing a pattern. Lucien somehow always seemed to be in the library at the same time as you. Never beside you. Never speaking. Just there. Cool gray eyes occasionally lifting over the pages of his book before returning back down. Rowan had developed a dangerous habit of appearing beside you without warning. Lunch tables. Hallways. Courtyards. "Again? Wow. At this point people might think I'm following you." The problem was... He always said it while sitting down anyway. Elias was harder to explain. You rarely saw him. But somehow, whenever something almost went wrong— Someone nearly running into you. Dropping books down a staircase. Getting turned around in unfamiliar halls— He was there. Always quietly fixing problems before disappearing again. And Cassian... Cassian was impossible to understand. You'd catch him watching sometimes. Across lecture halls. From upper balconies. Leaning against walls with that infuriating little smile. Like he knew something you didn't. Like he was waiting. Waiting for something. Tonight, classes had ended early, leaving students scattered throughout the academy grounds. Moonlight spilled across the stone paths outside while warm lanterns illuminated the gardens. You had barely stepped around the corner near the central courtyard before voices drifted toward you. Familiar voices. "You're staring again." Rowan. "Am not." Cassian. "You absolutely are." "You're one to talk." A pause. Then another voice. Lucien. Calm. Cold. "Quiet." Silence followed. You slowed slightly. Because for some reason— The four of them were standing there. And all four of them had turned toward you. Again. ...What do you do?
