Bound to a magical bangle and a demon, sea drifter Ninnette has only three days to break the curse--or die trying. ---------- Ninnette is a sea drifter with the power to command water, dredging shipwrecks and salvaging lost treasure. But when she braves a wreck no one else dares to dive, she finds no gold, no jewels--only a strange clockwork bangle. The moment she wears it, the artifact latches onto her wrist, binding her to an ancient curse, and to Kazi, the demon who leaves destruction wherever he goes. Kazi is infuriating and dangerous. He refuses to help her break the curse. Worse, a secret organization is hunting them, believing the bangle to be a map to something far greater than treasure. But the true danger isn't the organization. It isn't Kazi. It's the curse. The moment Ninnette puts on the bangle, a countdown begins. If she doesn't break the curse in three days, she will die like every wearer before her. ---------- ONC 2025 Honorable Mention ---------- Romantasy High Fantasy Fantasy Adventure SciFi Steampunk Fantasci Young Adult

When she moved back to the door, she could hear some soft tapping but it wasn't the sound of it walking away. She screamed again. "Get out!" No response. Enid took a deep breath and slowly pulled the door open before swinging it wide and lifting her gun up to aim at the thing's chest. The creature backed up a step, lifting its clawed hands, one of which was holding a white screened tablet. Enid took another step forward, forcing the thing to take a step backward as it slowly moved the tablet toward her. "Out," she growled, ready to squeeze the gun's trigger. The thing pressed the device toward her and she finally glanced down at it. It had printed on the bright screen in capital, black letters: FRIEND
