The Rabbit Moon

The arena is silent now. That doesn't mean the danger is gone. After the Tiger Trial, Shengxiao Academy has learned a new way to punish its witnesses. Silence. Students are warned not to repeat what they saw. Testimonies begin to change. Maps lose their bridges by daylight and redraw themselves after dark. And behind veils of moon-white silk, Rabbit House is hiding routes the Calendar was never meant to find. Lian Su knows better than to trust a secret. But Yun Nari does. Rabbit magic can open hidden paths, carry testimony through dreams, and protect people the official record has already decided to forget. Every secret comes with a price, though—and the more Nari keeps, the more crowded her dreams become with other people's fear. Then a moon bridge opens beneath the academy. It leads to a hidden record. And that record contains a name that should not exist beside the Dragon Seal. Ren Longwei has spent his life believing that obedience makes him safe. Now the Calendar is beginning to erase pieces of his inheritance—and someone is determined to make sure he never asks why. To survive the Rabbit Moon, Lian must decide what deserves protection, what deserves to be exposed, and whether a secret can save a person without burying them alive. The moon keeps what daylight would kill. The Rabbit Moon is Book Five of The Thirteenth Seal Academy, a dark academy romantasy of forbidden magic, hidden maps, dangerous secrets, political intrigue, and slow-burn enemies-to-lovers tension.
