Blackwood academy

The Shifter Academy

Hidden deep within the mountains stood Blackwood Academy, a school unlike any ordinary human could ever imagine.

It was a school for shifters.

Wolves, bears, dragons, foxes, vampires, and countless other supernatural creatures came from all over the world to learn how to control their abilities—and survive among others like themselves.

But everyone knew there was one family that ruled the academy.

The Volkov family.

The school’s owner was a powerful Russian dragon shifter, feared and respected by nearly every creature in the supernatural world.

And he had three sons.

Jack Volkov, the eldest, was a wolf shifter. Cold, aggressive, and incredibly territorial, Jack had inherited his father’s intimidating presence but none of his patience. He was known for getting into fights and rarely backing down from anyone.

His younger brother, Tom, was a bear shifter. Massive, strong, and surprisingly calm, Tom was the one who usually had to stop Jack from starting trouble. Despite his intimidating size, he was much more relaxed than his brothers.

And then there was Tray Volkov.

The youngest brother.

The dragon.

The leader.

At 2 meters and 10 centimeters tall, Tray towered over practically everyone at the academy. His body was heavily muscular, his shoulders broad, and his presence alone could make an entire hallway fall silent.

His hair was pitch black, slightly messy, framing a sharp and intimidating face. His eyes were cold and calculating, and nobody dared to challenge him unless they had a death wish.

Tray wasn’t simply the strongest of the three.

He was the one everyone obeyed.

Even teachers knew better than to cross him.

One morning, the three brothers stood together in the academy’s main hall.

Jack leaned against a pillar, his arms crossed.

Tom stood beside him, quietly watching the students passing by.

Tray stood in the center.

Tall.

Silent.

Untouchable.

The conversations around them slowly died down.

Everyone knew the Volkov
