Nyrah Vale: Tied to four.

Blurb "I'll be queen," Nyrah said. Her voice didn't shake. She wouldn't let it. "And when I am, I'll make sure you kiss my feet." "If you somehow survive," Killian said, leaning closer, "and you become queen, I will personally kiss your feet. I promise." In the year 2043, power decides everything — bloodlines, fate, and who gets to live above the rest. Nyrah Vale has none of it. She’s the only human admitted into Dominion Academy, a brutal institution where the strongest of every species compete in the Ascension Gauntlet to become ruler. Therians, dragons, witches, reptilians, and fox clans sharpen their claws on one another in a place where a weakling doesn’t last a day. Everyone expects Nyrah to die in the first hour. But Nyrah isn’t here to survive. She’s here to break the pyramid that crushed her family — and uncover the truth behind her parents’ disappearance during the Great War. Standing in her way are five dangerous heirs, each destined for greatness… and each unexpectedly drawn to the girl they were raised to despise. Enemies. Allies. Obsessions. And only eight will reach the top. Nyrah plans to be one of them — even if she has to shatter destiny itself to do it.
