Home/Romance/Echoes in the Gilded Cage

by john1208·Translated by Novel AI Studio
Zinaya Volkov wants one thing: a quiet life. A reclusive genius, she's perfectly happy letting her ambitious twin sister, Kasia, chase glory. But when a cryptic letter meant for Kasia arrives, summoning her to the ultra-exclusive Solnychny Academy, Zinaya is mistakenly whisked away in her place. Trapped in a world of cutthroat politics and immense wealth, Zinaya discovers the true reason for the summons: she, like her sister, is a 'Resonator' - a rare individual who can amplify the psychic abilities of others, a power as sought-after as it is forbidden. Now, she's the unwilling focal point for the academy's most powerful scions, including her former childhood friend, a cruel prodigy, a charming manipulator, and a silent observer, each with their own desperate reasons to claim her power. To survive, this lazy genius must play the part of a prodigy, but as the lines between her and her sister blur, will she find her own strength or be consumed by the gilded cage and the dangerous men within it?
