In a world where supernatural beings exist in a strict hierarchy, Micai Bane has just been given an impossible second chance. After enduring six years of torture in a prison for supernaturals called The Facility, she faces death in a raging fire with one final promise to herself: if given another chance, she would live unapologetically as herself. Then the impossible happens. Micai awakens in her seventeen-year-old body at Wensridge Academy, years before her imprisonment. Her scarred prisoner's body is gone, replaced by fair skin, rose gold hair, and bright blue eyes. This is no dream-she's truly been reborn. Strange black marks appear on her hips-elongated symbols that feel oddly familiar though she's never seen them before. Whether miracle or curse, Micai seizes this opportunity not just for survival, but for vengeance against those who betrayed her, particularly her manipulative half-sister Seria who orchestrated her downfall.
