Beastbound: Lia

In the prestigious Hollowmere Academy, students are chosen to bond with creatures from across the world — each animal categorized by power: Weak, Uncommon, Rare, Epic, Legendary, and the godlike Mythic tier. Lia, a shy but determined girl with a mysterious past, is mocked for her bond with a Dustrabbit — the weakest known species. At the top of the social chain is Sophie, a ruthless and flashy elite bonded with a Rare-class Silverfang Drake, leading a pack of bullies who torment anyone below them. But Lia soon discovers something strange: her Dustrabbit isn’t ordinary. Hidden within it is a secret long erased from history — one that could upend the beast ranking system and make her the most powerful of them all.
