A young woman disguises herself as a boy to infiltrate a supernatural war academy where students train for combat instead of attending regular classes. She faces harassment from three towering, tattooed Kings who torment her daily. Her male instructors present another challenge since they knew her in the past and consider her weak and powerless. The protagonist hides her true identity as the missing Fae Queen, rightful heir to the throne of death. She carries the blood of a monster and violence runs through her lineage. While everyone around her attempts to crush her spirit, she draws strength from their cruelty. Each attack only forges her into something more dangerous. The academy becomes her proving ground as she prepares to claim her birthright and transform pain into power.
