Before cities rose, before kingdoms claimed the earth, the gods forged Yakshas, the guardians of sacred treasures hidden in temples, forests, and forgotten stone. Bound by ancient law, a Yaksha cannot abandon his relic. But when a treasure chooses a new bearer, the guardian must follow him, mortal or not. Each Yaksha carries the memory of centuries, speaks in echoes of old languages, and commands the energies of the relics they guard. Their existence is known only in whispers, half-ruined scriptures, and the tremors felt in places where the divine once walked. Now, in the modern age, temples crumble, myths fade, and the world forgets its watchers. But magic is never lost. Only asleep. And when a young archeologist touches the silver bracelet, he wakes not only a Yaksha but the ancient power trapped within it, a power that others have waited lifetimes to claim. The world stirs. The guardian rises. And destiny begins to reshape itself around the boy who should never have entered that temple.

A STORY BASED ON SHAKESPEARE'S TWELFTH NIGHT Named for the twelfth night after Christmas, the end of the Christmas season, Twelfth Night plays with love and power. The Countess Olivia, a woman with her own household, attracts Duke (or Count) Orsino. Two other would-be suitors are her pretentious steward, Malvolio, and Sir Andrew Aguecheek. Onto this scene arrive the twins Viola and Sebastian; caught in a shipwreck, each thinks the other has drowned. Viola disguises herself as a male page and enters Orsino's service. Orsino sends her as his envoy to Olivia-only to have Olivia fall in love with the messenger. The play complicates, then wonderfully untangles, these relationships.

"You're mine, Layla." "What-t?" she whispered, still trying to catch up to the whirlwind of emotions crashing through her. "Mine," he repeated, his voice firm and fierce. "Not Liam's. Not anyone else's. Mine. Only mine." ~~ Crestwood High Trilogy #1 ● LAYLA HARPER I'm all about good vibes, great art, and even better company. I'm always on the lookout for new adventures and experiences to fuel my art. But then I saw him - the mysterious guy in school who seems to exist in a world of his own. He's silent, cold, and distant, like a ghost haunting the halls. What secrets is he hiding behind those piercing eyes? I'm drawn to the mystery of him, and I find myself wondering what it would take to crack the code of his icy exterior. ● DANIEL GARCIA I'm a ghost in the halls, a shadow in the crowd. People see me, but they don't really look. I'm a master of hiding in plain sight, of being invisible despite being right in front of them. My walls are up, my guard is down... or is it the other way around? Either way, I'm not letting anyone in. Not after what happened. But then she showed up, Layla Harper is like a ray of light in a world that's gone dark. And I'm not sure if I'm drawn to her or repelled by her. Either way, I'm stuck on her, like a puzzle piece that won't fit. ~ What happens when sparks fly between sunshine & darkness? ~
