"The weak don't survive here." At Arclight Academy, your worth is measured by the creature you bond with. For Serenya Vale, a scholarship student born with a chronic, progressive illness, surviving the brutal training seems impossible. She expects to fail. She expects to die. What she doesn't expect is Kairen Draxen. Lethal, silent, and wrapped in living darkness, Kairen is the only rider in centuries to bond with a shadow dragon. To survive his bond, he had to stop feeling entirely, turning himself into a cold, unyielding void. No one can break his control. Until Serenya walks through the iron gates. Suddenly, Kairen's shadows are acting on their own-escaping his command to pool at Serenya's feet and ease her pain. As the lethal academy trials begin, the two are forced into an impossible proximity. Bound by a cosmic soul connection that demands his darkness surrender to her light, Kairen is terrified of losing control, and Serenya is just trying to stay alive.

After a brutal breakup leaves her questioning her worth, she turns to her friend Azriel-the one constant who makes her feel safe. What starts as a drunken kiss turns into something physical, then something harder to define. They're supposed to be just friends with benefits, no strings, no emotions. But between tender mornings, protective gestures, and moments that cut too deep, pretending gets harder. As old wounds resurface and boundaries blur, she's forced to confront what she truly wants. And when it all comes crashing down, Azriel is there, steady as ever. Maybe this was never casual. Maybe it was always love waiting for her to believe she deserved it.

After she tragically loses her mother, Cassie turns to street fighting-but she soon learns that the biggest fights happen outside the ring. ***** Seventeen-year-old Cassandra Haynes has never been one to follow the rules. Constantly on the brink of expulsion at school, she doesn't care what anyone thinks about her. But when tragedy strikes and she is left alone to care for her little sister, Cassie needs to find a way to survive and quick. Without telling a single soul, she moves to the next city over and turns to the only thing she knows--the illegal sport of street fighting. As her fights get grittier and more dangerous, Cassie finds out that there are even more people out for her blood. She'll do anything to protect her little sister and some people are about to learn the hard way. Content and/or Trigger Warning: attempted suicide in Chapter 2.
