♥ Astrid ♥ Gunshots. Karate moves. Flipping through languages so fast that my brain struggled to catch up. These had been as familiar to me in the six years I had been in training as a school bell or sound of a teacher's voice might be to anyone else. At sixteen, I had seen more death than I cared to talk about. But what could I say? That was what life as a teenage spy was. And as part of America's little-known espionage agency Delta, that was what I had become accustomed to. But I couldn't have known that things were about to change. A new assignment came up, and though I was with people I had known for years, this one would change things so that my life would never be the same. A drug dealer, working undercover in France. People from my past, popping up in the most unexpected places. And the boy with the blue eyes, who could be completely for me or utterly against me; often, I didn't know which. This was one assignment that would stay with me forever. But, of course, I didn't know that as I headed in...to pure Hell. Welcome to Delta. Now that you're here, good luck getting out.

One bed... and it's haunted

In the 16th century, Eldoria's jewel was Princess Maya Catherine Rose: a vision of wisdom, beauty, and unshakable honour. Her mastery of diplomacy and the sword alike became legend, her name carried on the wind to distant lands. She was the heiress, the queen-to-be, the living promise of her people's future. But fate is rarely merciful. In the quiet corridors of destiny, a different plan was written, one of shadows and betrayal. The beloved princess becomes the kingdom's darkest curse, her crown stained by secrets and whispers of forbidden power. As war drums echo from rival realms, Eldoria teeters on the edge, and the woman once hailed as its saviour may yet be the one to destroy it. Mystery coils through the air like smoke, magic hums in the bones of the earth, and every truth hides a blade. In this tangled web of love, power, and ruin... the line between hero and monster blurs.

When the last mage able to cast magic in the kingdom of Ruelluette accidentally summons a demon to a bloodied battlefield, he doesn't expect to become eternally entangled. Trigger Warnings: violence, gore

As possession looms and Alexandra's grip on reality begins to slip, the team must face their greatest fear: losing one of their own to the very thing they've spent their lives fighting. Because saving souls is one thing. But how do you save someone who may no longer be themselves?
