Lucie et Florent sont amoureux l’un de l’autre depuis l’université et ont entretenu leur relation jusqu’à leur mariage. Tout allait bien jusqu’au jour où Lucie a été promue dans l’entreprise où elle travaille, ce qui l’a conduite à multiplier les voyages d’affaires. Florent se sent désemparé. Non seulement sa femme gagne plus d’argent que lui, mais en plus, bien qu’il ait sa propre petite entreprise de livraison et qu’il s’en sorte correctement, c’est Lucie qui prend en charge les dépenses les plus importantes du foyer et contribue même à l’évolution de son entreprise. Cette situation l’empêche de s’imposer face aux choix professionnels de sa femme. Il fait de son mieux pour encaisser, mais l’absence prolongée de Lucie pèse de plus en plus sur lui. À la maison, c’est leur femme de ménage, Andréa, qui gère tout. Ne supportant plus la situation, Florent tente d’en parler à Lucie pour qu’ils trouvent une solution.

Cette dernière, en plus d’être efficace dans son travail, est une véritable bombe, avec un corps envoûtant. D’abord réticente aux avances de son patron, elle finit par en parler à sa mère. Celle-ci, voyant une opportunité, l’encourage à céder… avec un but précis : prendre la place de Lucie.

Being the only child to the Queen of Castle Grey, lost within the confines of mount Trenon, Kilvic is made to learn a number of things best suited to the heir to the Elzcrid bloodline at the hands of tutors handpicked by his mother. However, his fifteenth birthday sends him beyond the reaches of his mother’s domain. She has tasked him with the duty of learning more. Understanding greater things than she can teach him, greater things with which to cope with the curse upon his bloodline as she had been taught by her father and mother. Finding himself in a new kingdom, in an academy designed for only the most elite of mages, Kilvic is tasked to survive the new things he will come to learn, while struggling with the chaos of human association, as he comes to understand that while he may know a great deal about the world from the castle archives, it is a different thing to experience them. The association between people isn’t as easily deciphered as the books made them seem. As he struggles with the task of becoming a mage and a student along with surviving new friendships, failure threatens him at every turn and people prove pettier than the books would have him believe. Yet, despite all these, somewhere hidden in the shadows of the kingdom, a creature stirs, taking from the academy the one thing it values most. Kilvic must survive the trials of the academy, keep his friends, best his first enemy, and ensure that what stirs must not cause more damage than the kingdom can bear, lest the supremacy of Castle Grey be called into question in realms beyond that which most know. And all in time to attend the Winter Hall Fest.
