Poisonous. Dangerous. Brutal. Thornfield Academy is a place where I, Ivy Hammond, blend in with the everyday supernatural creatures that flock these halls. But when darkness falls, I embrace my calling. I’m a shapeshifting assassin, summoned through a combination of ancient rituals and the dark web to deliver supernatural justice where mortal laws fail. This me is called Poison, and I'm a master of secrets. But when an assignment comes up, for the first time, I can't complete a job, and it could end up being my last days. My bosses are not the type of creatures you want to mess with, but this one… it strikes too close to home. To make this more complicated, I’m drawn to three men I should avoid at all costs. They are brutal, they are arrogant and they want what they can’t Poison. Torin the charming vampire sub-boss of the Ainsley Coven, a powerful supernatural syndicate I've crossed paths with before. Bram Sinclair: the Dark Fae enforcer with magic as ancient and treacherous as the wild forests that surround the academy. Tate Blackwell: the protective warlock whose spells might be my salvation or my doom. All three are bound by immortal oaths, arcane dangers, and mystical ties that now involve me. As our worlds collide and blood loyalties are tested, I must decide whether to fade into the shadows and run or stand and fight against the beings who own my soul. But escaping isn't as simple as that, and when my next contract reaches its deadline, I face a choice that could lead to my ultimate destruction. This is a dark paranormal academia reverse harem with plenty of TWs. This takes place in an entirely fictional world set in the UK. This is the first book of 1 of 3. Fast Burn.

Conflicted. Determined. Unbreakable. The secrets I've kept are unraveling, and the lines between Ivy Hammond and Poison are blurring dangerously. Thornfield University has become a battlefield where my past and present collide. The assassin in me knows I should complete my missions, but my heart rebels against the very essence of who I thought I was. Torin, Bram, and Tate are no longer arrogant distractions but they're now integral to my survival and sanity. But our growing bond comes with a price, and my bosses won't let go of their prized assassin without a fight. I'm caught in the crossfire between my baggage and theirs and my choices could tip the balance of power in the supernatural world. So who am I really? Ivy or Poison? Assassin or girlfriend? Enemy or ally? I have to decide where I truly belong. But I won't go down without a fight. The hunter is becoming the hunted, and it's time to show them all what happens when you corner a poisonous vine.

Love. Vengeance. Finality. I've always been the hunter, but now I’m also the hunted. Every clue we unravel entangles us further in a web of power and deception stretching far beyond the university. In this supernatural game of cat and mouse, love is our most potent magic and our greatest weakness. The fight for our immortal happily ever after had better be worth the price of our souls. This is a dark paranormal academia reverse harem with plenty of TWs. This takes place in an entirely fictional world set in the UK. This is the second book in the Kings of Thornfield duet.
