The Witch Queen Awakens

Moria, the Dark Witch Queen, had ruled the magical continent for a thousand years. Weary of bloodshed and conquest, she sealed away her power and memories, transforming herself into an ordinary girl to enroll at Silvermoon Magic Academy. Over three years, she used her hidden knowledge to help her lover, Kalvin, rise step by step to the top—winning the Academy Grand Tournament and becoming a prodigy hailed by the Council. On the night of the Witch's Moon, Kalvin proposed to her before the entire assembly. Moria believed she had found something more precious than any throne—true love. Yet when she stepped into the hall, clad in her gown of moonlit spider-silk, what awaited her was not a wedding, but a binding circle of twelve high mages, Cardinal Victoria's crimson judgment, and the very supreme forbidden spell she herself had taught Kalvin—now recited from his own lips.
