THE NINTH SEATUpdated at Mar 23, 2026, 03:21
At Ravenswood Academy, the Scholar’s Council isn’t a mere honor society it’s a centuries-old binding. Nine seats guard the school from an ancient curse, but the ninth demands a sacrifice every generation. Seven years ago, that seat claimed Lydia Voss, who vanished without a trace. Now her sister Elara, 16 and newly enrolled, arrives with questions no one wants answered. When the Council nominates Elara for the empty ninth seat, she realizes it’s no honor: it’s her turn to be offered. Council president Theo Harrington charming, haunted, and the only one who flinches at Lydia’s name warns her to stop digging. Not to hide the truth, but because he fears what she’ll uncover... and what it will cost them both. In halls where knowledge is deadly and secrets bind tighter than blood, can Elara break the ritual before it claims her?
