Ama Calloway knows the rules. Don't stand out. Don't react. Don't let them see the fire. As a scholarship ward student at Ashveil Academy. one of five common-born students admitted each year to an institution built for the magical elite. Ama has survived by staying invisible. She's brilliant, she's careful, and she has absolutely no intention of letting anyone discover the forbidden Fireborn magic burning beneath her skin.
Then a fire-sigil appears scorched into the academy wall overnight.
Then another appears in her dormitory. Then one traces itself onto her forearm while she's sitting in class — the exact shape of the marks on the wall, written in a language she's never been taught but somehow already knows. The Grand Warden Council sends an ruthless investigator to Ashveil. he's the only person at Ashveil who looks at Ama like she's someone worth taking seriously.
As Ama and Caelum uncover the truth behind the sigils — a suppressed prophecy, forty years of buried history, and a conspiracy that reaches into the highest levels of the Council — Ama discovers that the fire she's spent years hiding isn't a flaw. It's a message. And someone embedded it in the walls of this academy fifteen years ago, waiting for her specifically to find it.
But the Council has kept this secret for forty years. They're not going to let one ward student burn it down without a fight.
Wards of Forbidden Fire is a fast-paced YA fantasy novella packed with slow-burn romance, dark academic atmosphere, and an empowering story about a girl learning that belonging doesn't require hiding who you are.
