Publisher's Synopsis
I'd rather die in my dorm, than serve a vampire.
Surviving the summer term at Nocturnal Academy taught me three things.1. There's no escape out of the castle.2. I'll be trained as a servant to the vampires or worse-a courtesan.3. I can fight for what I want from the inside out. In the last few months, I've lost my mother, my best friend, and my freedom. I've done unimaginable things, but I'm not broken. The Placement Tests are coming up, and I will crush them. I refuse to end up as a vampire's plaything. I'll become the 1 out of 100 fae who gets to shape her own fate. I don't care how hard I have to work or how improbable my chances are. My relentlessness and desperation will pay off. Or at least that's what I thought. Because between a mysterious vampire guard confusing me, my nemesis circling in on me like a viper, and a new teacher hating my guts, all my efforts seem to only make everything worse. If I'm not careful, I won't end up as a courtesan, but as dead meat. Immerse yourself into a world filled with magic, danger, and romance. If you love Richelle Mead, Jaymin Eve, and Bella Forrest, you'll love Nocturna Academy. Cruel Elites is a fae academy novel and the second book in the Nocturnal Academy series. It is highly recommended to read the prequel Wicked Nobles first.
