The Iron Butterfly by Chanda Hahn
Thalia's world begins with fragments: her first name, a mysterious stranger who saved her life, and the haunting memory of the Septori's iron butterfly machine. That encounter changed everything, transforming her into something caught between human and Denai—neither one nor the other.
Seeking refuge from her past and answers about her identity, Thalia finds sanctuary as a servant at the Citadel in Calandry, an elite school for the gifted Denai. But when strange powers begin awakening within her, she's thrust from the servant quarters into the student halls overnight, forced to masquerade as one of the Denai to survive.
Her carefully constructed facade becomes more complicated when her mysterious savior reappears as her new fighting instructor. As Thalia navigates her dual identity, she must confront the darkness growing inside her while keeping her true nature hidden from those around her.
The Septori haven't forgotten about her. They're still searching, still hunting, and they'll stop at nothing to reclaim what they believe belongs to them. Dead or alive, they want Thalia back.
