Book One
Eva Kishi's magic woke up years late, and it left a brand in her eyes. The state lists her as "abandoned by owner," and the Weston family buys her at auction and calls it an adoption. Now she lives under Professor Azrael Weston's rules, trains with him at dawn, and tries to keep her own secrets while the school watches what she cost. Then demons start getting through the school's wards, and Eva has to decide how far she trusts the man who owns her deed.
