“En mi primera vida, fui un prisionero del destino: una existencia breve, consumida por una enfermedad que me arrebató la oportunidad de soñar, explorar o simplemente vivir. Pero mi final no fue realmente el final. Desperté en un mundo completamente diferente, uno donde la magia reina, los reinos se alzan y caen, y los secretos ancestrales susurran en las sombras. Renací como Alexander Hemingway, hijo de un guerrero legendario y una maga sin igual, en el seno de una familia noble destinada a la grandeza. Sin embargo, el maná, el pilar de este mundo, me negó su favor. Marcado como un “amorfo,” incapaz de usar la magia como los demás, soy una anomalía en una sociedad donde el poder mágico define el valor de una persona. Pero mi historia no será dictada por el destino ni por las expectativas ajenas. Aunque este mundo me rechace, estoy decidido a forjar mi propio camino. Porque, en lo profundo de mi ser, hay algo diferente. Algo antiguo. Algo que ni los magos más poderosos pueden comprender. Mientras navego por este mundo (una academia mágica donde se forja la élite del imperio, intrigas nobles que se ocultan tras sonrisas, y una magia perdida que parece llamarme) debo enfrentar peligros que amenazan no solo mi vida, sino la esencia misma de lo que soy. ¿Mi propósito? Sobrevivir. Proteger a quienes amo. Y desentrañar los secretos de una magia olvidada que podría cambiarlo todo. No poseo la fuerza para dominar este mundo, pero sí la voluntad de desafiarlo. Y esta vez, no permitiré que nada ni nadie me detenga. En un mundo donde la magia lo gobierna todo, demostraré que incluso una anomalía puede cambiar el curso de la historia.”

If you like build up romances with expansive character arcs, enemies-to-lovers trope and of course, toe-curling NSFW scenes (after a lot of teasing), then do consider reading. If you want a story where the MCs fall for each other and make love by chapter 3, don't bother. Also, this story is rated 18 because there will be spicy scenes, so if that's not your thing then feel free not to read or skip the risque chapters. There are also mentions of sensitive topics like suicide and depression, so reader discretion is advised. Happy reading!
