How to Seal a Curse (And Other Ways to Ruin Your Reputation)
Story 1 • 30 chapters
For fans of dark academia romance, magical university, and sharp-witted rivals-to-lovers stories.
At the prestigious Cairn-Gait Conservatory, magic is a matter of bloodline, and ‘Ink’ is the only currency that matters. Gwen O’Dorchaidhe’s life was mapped out perfectly as the heir to a pureblood legacy—until Will Mason arrives. An ordinary, untaught American ‘Vapour’ who possesses the raw, unrefined power of a hurricane and a target on his back as the world’s most inconvenient Chosen One.
From the moment they meet, it’s an electric rivalry. Tasked with tutoring a boy raised in the normie world she was taught to look down upon, Gwen finds herself caught in a dangerous game of resonance and secrets.
But when a terrifying, centuries-old death-curse breaches the campus grounds—leaving the headless silhouette of the legendary Rider to hunt students across the midnight moors—everything Gwen thought she knew changes. Breaking curses and challenging the outdated rules of sorcerer society is just another year at Cairn-Gait. Yet, as Gwen risks everything to anchor a boy who is as much a curse as he is a savior, a ruinous, forbidden attraction ignites between their cores.
Gwen is about to learn that some reputations are better off ruined.
Perfect for fans of dark academia romance, magical university, and sharp-witted rivals-to-lovers stories.
