Caelen Vance has spent his life surviving the forgotten corners of Zurich. Then a Leviathan tears through the night-and something ancient in his blood answers. Gravity bends. Aether ignites. And Valence Academy comes for him. Classified as an S-Class bloodline and bound by a recruitment covenant he never agreed to, Caelen is dragged into a hidden academy where supernatural power is measured, controlled, and weaponized.
The strongest cadets become assets. The unstable ones disappear. And Caelen may be the most dangerous recruit Valence has ever seen. Surviving brutal combat trials is only the beginning. With rune-blade fighter Evelyn Thorne and lightning prodigy Rian Kuroda caught between loyalty and rebellion, Caelen begins uncovering evidence that the Academy has been manipulating bloodlines, falsifying records, and hiding something monstrous beneath Lake Zurich.
Something that knows his power. Something that is waking up. To survive, Caelen must master the force inside him, expose the truth behind the covenant written into his blood, and decide who he can trust before Valence turns him into the weapon it created him to become. Because the Academy may not be protecting the world from Leviathans. It may be awakening them. Aether Awakening is Book One of The Primordial Covenant, a fast-paced dark academy fantasy packed with supernatural powers, deadly trials, rival alliances, hidden conspiracies, monstrous creatures, and explosive magical combat.
