To sleep in a pit of vipers - S.B

Power. Loyalty. Legacy.

For Nyra Selwyn, these are more than just words-they are the foundation of her world. Power is everything and loyalty is the only currency that matters, but legacy, legacy transcends them both.

As the unchallenged leader of her Slytherin circle, Nyra commands respect with sharp wit, unwavering confidence, and an ancient pureblood name that is impossible to ignore. At her side stand the only three people she trusts: Viola Mulciber, the unyielding enforcer of the hierarchy; Celine Rosier, a cunning prefect torn between duty and defiance; and Octavia Greengrass, the quiet diplomat who sees more than she lets on.

Bound by blood, ambition and secrets, their bond is unbreakable-until the cracks begin to form. The Dark Lord's shadow creeps closer, and the expectations of their bloodlines grow heavier by the day.

Nyra has always known where she belongs, but as war looms, she faces the one thing she never expected: doubt.

What happens when ambition collides with conscience? When loyalty demands sacrifice? And when the choices Nyra makes could mean the difference between survival and destruction-not just for herself, but for the only people who have ever truly mattered?

The Wizarding World is changing, and one thing is certain: only the strongest survive.
