Huntress of St Eledermark Leann , Stacie (Paperback)

It’s a proving ground.

 

When Lena arrives at St. Eldermark, she understands one rule immediately: visibility is dangerous. Built to groom the heirs of a global criminal underworld, the academy doesn’t reward innocence or obedience. It rewards leverage. Attention is currency. Desire is power. Control wears the mask of protection.

 

Survival isn’t about staying good. It’s about staying useful.

 

As Lena navigates a campus where alliances are weaponized and loyalty is transactional, she becomes the focus of three rival factions, each convinced they know what’s best for her future. To them, she isn’t a person. She’s an asset. A solution. A prize worth fighting wars over.

 

What they don’t see is the cost of being wanted.

 

The quiet violence of conditional worth. The fracture that forms when love feels indistinguishable from ownership. The exhaustion of making yourself smaller to stay alive.

 

As faction tensions escalate and the line between safety and captivity dissolves, Lena is forced to confront a brutal truth: autonomy in this world is treated as rebellion. Refusal is punished. Love is negotiated. Power is inherited.

 

At St. Eldermark, no one takes without justification. No one protects without claiming something in return.

 

Lena was never meant to survive untouched. She was meant to be shaped.

 

But she’s done being the price.

 

Huntress of St. Eldermark is a dark academia fantasy romance featuring morally gray characters, ruthless power struggles, enemies-to-lovers tension, and a heroine fighting to define autonomy in a world built on control. This book contains intense themes and is intended for mature readers.
