I never thought I’d see the inside of Hollows Academy again. Yet here I am, back in this magical prison where ancient wards bind my demon powers and nightmares stalk the halls. They arrested Killian and me together, but the moment we crossed the threshold, they separated us. Now my Unseelie friend is being held somewhere in this sprawling complex, and no amount of threats from the guards will stop me from finding him.
The worst part? This isn’t my first time navigating these cursed halls. I know exactly what Hollows is capable of, how it breaks even the strongest supernatural beings. But this time is different. This time, I know all its tricks—or at least, I thought I did.
When a demon named Jasper approaches me with an offer to help reunite me with Killian and break free of this prison, every instinct screams trap. He’s everything they warned us about in the Unseelie court—temptation wrapped in danger. But as we work together, I find myself drawn to him in ways that make me question everything I believed about my heart.
Deep within Hollows’ most secure ward, there are whispers of a prisoner no one has ever seen, one whose mere existence terrifies even the guards. The more I uncover about this mysterious inmate, the more I suspect they’re connected to why Killian and I were really brought back here.
Now I’m torn between the Unseelie who owns my past and the demon who promises a different future. But in a prison built to contain the supernatural world’s most dangerous beings, trusting the wrong person could destroy everything—and everyone—I love.
Some say the second time at Hollows Academy is always worse than the first. They have no idea how right they are.
