<strong>It's THE hottest romantasy sensation that EVERYONE is talking about! </strong> <br/><br/> <strong>What do you get if you mix <em>Fourth Wing </em>with<em> Zodiac Academy</em>, a dash of Arthurian legend, and lots and lots of vampires? </strong> <br/><br/> <strong>Welcome to Bloodwing Academy.</strong> <br/><br/> <strong>Expect magic. Expect competition. Expect blood.</strong> <br/><br/>.......... <br/><br/> <strong>The reader reviews say it all! </strong> <br/><br/><strong>'If you love dragons, academia, trials, vampires, and spice, you will absolutely devour this book!' </strong> <br/><br/><strong>'This is a slow burn romance, and I could barely handle the tension, banter, pining, and angst ... it was immaculate' </strong> <br/><br/><strong>'I think this might be my favourite book of the year - actually, it probably is! From the enticing plot to the angst-filled relationship, everything about it was perfect' </strong> <br/><br/> <strong>'This was definitely like <em>Zodiac Academy</em> meets <em>Fourth Wing</em> but stands on its own. Fae, Vampires, and Dragons! I mean, come on!! How amazing' </strong> <br/><br/>.......... <br/><br/>I didn't sign up for this. <br/><br/>A half-fae in a school of highblood vampires? That's a recipe for torment. <br/><br/>I'm Medra Pendragon - last of the dragon riders, or so they tell me. Funny thing is, there are no dragons left. Not a single one. But somehow, that hasn't stopped the vampires from deciding I'm worth capturing. Now I'm stuck at Bloodwing Academy, where the highbloods run everything and blightborn like me? We're just blood in their veins, pawns in their games. <br/><br/>But that's not even the worst part. Enter Blake Drakharrow. Cold, arrogant, and way too gorgeous for his own good. He's been tormenting me since the moment we met, and now, thanks to some ancient ritual, we're betrothed. He acts like he owns me, but I'm not going down without a fight. <br/><br/>Bloodwing isn't just a school - it's a battlefield. Highbloods fight for power, and if you're weak? You're dead. <br/><br/>Between deadly competitions, lies that could get me executed, and a dragon-shaped secret looming over my head, all I have to do is survive. Easy, right? Except I'm starting to think the real danger isn't the academy - it's what I'm becoming in this twisted game of power. <br/><br/>And Blake? He might just be the one who pushes me over the edge. <br/><br/>They think they can control me. They think they can use me. <br/><br/>But they have no idea what they've awakened. <br/><br/>........ <br/><br/> <strong>Perfect for fans of:</strong> <br/><br/> <strong>Dragons, Vampires and Fae</strong> <br/><br/> <strong>Slow-burn and spice</strong> <br/><br/> <strong>Enemies-to-lovers and fated mates</strong> <br/><br/>.......... <br/><br/> <strong>Readers can't stop praising<em> On Wings of Blood</em>:</strong> <br/><br/> <strong>'These two are everything. Their humour? Their BANTER? God tier' </strong> <br/><br/><strong>'I binged this in two days because I simply couldn't stop. It's a mix of <em>Fourth Wing, Harry Potter, Hunger Games, </em>and <em>Zodiac Academy</em> and I need the next book immediately' </strong> <br/><br/> <strong>'The narrative is flawless and weaves beautifully around a fantastical and timeless dark world' </strong> <br/><br/> <strong>'I laughed, I cried, and I swooned, what more could I ask for?' </strong>

<b>Most fairytales end with a wedding and a happily-ever-after - but this is no fairytale. The updated and official translation of <i>Under the Oak Tree</i>, the #1 webnovel on MANTA, continues in this second volume.</b><br/><br/>As her first winter in Anatol turns to spring, Lady Maximilian finds herself confronting an unfamiliar feeling: hope. Her voice and her magic strengthen every day; the only parts of Calypse Castle left to refurbish are its gardens, which she plans to fill with blooming flowers; and the way her husband, the recalcitrant war hero Sir Riftan, looks at her from across their bedroom makes her feel, for the first time in her life, that she might be worthy of love and affection.<br/><br/>However, Maxi's life is never that easy. Just as she begins to feel at home with Riftan, Maxi receives a surprise visit from Princess Agnes, the renowned sorceress who might have become Riftan's wife if he'd decided to divorce Maxi after the Dragon Campaign. Not at all what Maxi expected, the princess stirs up complicated emotions and politics that could lead to monumental changes in Maxi and Riftan's relationship.<br/><br/><b>This volume collects chapters 77-133 of the original webnovel by Suji Kim.</b>
