Powerless

Powerless is a gripping fantasy romance set in a kingdom where power means survival—and being ordinary is a death sentence. In the kingdom of Ilya, the Elites possess extraordinary abilities, while the powerless are hunted and executed. Paedyn Gray has survived by pretending to be psychic, blending into a world that would destroy her if her secret were revealed. But when she saves one of Ilya's princes, she is thrown into the deadly Purging Trials—a brutal competition designed to showcase the kingdom's most powerful. Forced to compete against dangerous Elites, Paedyn must rely on her intelligence, instincts, and resilience to survive—especially as her growing connection with Prince Kai, one of her fiercest rivals, threatens to expose everything.
