Genre

New Adult Dark Dystopian Fantasy, SciFi

They said that the Monroe Academy Bootcamp Program was meant to break

its trainees.

With one last attempt at proving her worth, she was counting on the worst.

The Bootcamp Program at Monroe Academy was Rayah’s last and only hope. Within just a few short months, she would have to display her abilities in front of the council and prove her strength. If she passed, she’d level up, but if she failed, then everything would have been for nothing.

The pain, the suffering, the training, the loneliness…the sacrifices…

Rayah was determined to make it all count, and now that she was able to manifest her light, it was time to take things to the next level.

The rookie vex signed up to take part in one of the most advanced training programs that the academy provided.

She knew that in breaking, it would be her last chance to unlock the mental barriers that blocked the path to her energy.

And she was willing to endure anything to make that happen.

Bestselling author Destiny Hawkins brings you the third installment of a gripping dark fantasy where a powerless girl must survive in a society that doesn't accept the weak...or the defective.

The Calling

The Descendants Book 2

She was given a second chance to prove that she could manifest her powers.

She had no idea she’d have to hide them.

Ever since Rayah could remember, she had always been different from everyone else. Not only was she the prized daughter of the greatest collectors known to history, but she was also branded a null.

To the students of Monroe Academy, Rayah was a privileged failure. A lightless lighter. A worthless Lytonian. And if it weren’t for her parents, they would have been calling her a slave years ago.

In only a few months, Rayah had to present her abilities to the council and prove to them that she was worthy of walking the halls of the academy, but Major Artemis St. James, her tormentor and superior officer, would stop at nothing to keep her from excelling.

Failing the leveling meant becoming the property of the man who taught her the very meaning of pain.

It would have also made her mother’s sacrifice for nothing.

With the test date closing in, Rayah learned that she was able to use her powers at an elite level, but even though that meant she had power, it made her chances of leveling impossible. There was no way that she’d be able to prove her worthiness now.

The standard colors of a Lytonians powers are white, royal blue, and turquoise blue.

Rayah’s were black…

And she could only use them in the dark.

The Descendants

The Descendants Series Book 1

Fail the tests and become a slave. Display defectiveness and be put to death.

Monroe Academy was built to separate the weak from the strong.

*Pass the biyearly leveling and be released into society upon graduation.

*Fail to be promoted and be placed into servitude.

Branded as the academy null, these were the laws that applied to all but Rayah Bardeau. The Lighter with no light.

After Rayah’s mother made a devastating sacrifice, Rayah was given six years to make her required level. Now, with only a few months left to prove herself, she was still the same level she’s been since she was ten years old.

A level one.

Overwhelmed by the upcoming test, consumed by guilt, and wary of academy bullies, Rayah could only dream of escaping her world.

…And one night, her dream had come true…

Only, when Rayah reawakened in her dorm, she couldn’t distinguish if she had only dreamed of the defect from the wild-lands, or if she had somehow used her Lighter Form to jump there, and everything she experienced was real.

But only the elite ― the most powerful of Lighters ― could manifest their Lighter Forms. Right?

And what was the dark energy that lurked just beneath the surface? Would Rayah be able to soon claim the title of a lighter, or would she discover that she was something else entirely?

IMAGE LABELED AND ATTACHED

Soren

I stood next to the village fire, my sister and grandmother sitting only a few feet away from me, as I watched in awe as a rainbow-colored beam of light shot through the clouds a few miles away from here. At first, I didn’t understand what I was looking at. Not until an invisible gust of energy rushed at me, infused with Rayah’s essence. Sucking in a deep breath of air, I spotted a thin black smoke-like energy spiraling up the beam and painfully realized what this was.

The Calling.

And Rayah was beckoning for help.

All I could feel was a growing pull towards the beam, like I needed to get there as soon as possible. Deep down, I knew that this was something only Rayah’s calling could do. She was special, powerful, and unique. A different kind of gods child, or maybe something else entirely. Something even more powerful.

The skull-splitting pain didn’t come right away, but I could feel it steadily taking over and yanking me away from my other senses. I grunted and dropped down onto one knee, my vision blurring. A moment later, my senses became heightened, causing my panic to rise.

I could hear my sister and grandmother speaking in the distance as they tried to tend to me, but as I raised my head with watering eyes, all I could focus on was Rayah’s beam. I had never before felt a magnetic pull like this. The calling between gods children was meant to communicate and call for help when in danger, but in all my years, I had never felt a pull so powerful. It was as if Rayah was beckoning for the more dangerous and primal side of myself to awaken.

And awaken, it had.

When Grandmother Emerald placed a strong hand over my shoulder, I could finally hear her speaking clearly. “Go get her. This is what you were meant for, Guardian.”

Raising my head, I turned to look into my grandmother’s eyes only to find them completely white, as if she were trapped within a vision. Then there was the deepness of someone else’s voice meshed with hers. Maybe a voice only a gods child could hear.

I turned back towards the beam and raised myself to my feet. All I cared about now was getting to Rayah and keeping her safe. If she was doing the calling, then the Lytonians had to know that she was a defect. They would aim to kill her on the spot.

I wouldn’t let that happen to her. I couldn’t.
