At seventeen, Chloe is finally invited into the formal gatherings that mark a young shifter's place in society. As a lower-rank wolf, she's learned it's safer to be overlooked. So when a sharp-eyed stranger starts noticing her, she tells herself it means nothing. Only a glance. Only a dance. Until it isn't.

"The world doesn't care about your stories. It only cares if you're still breathing." Eight hundred years after the collapse of the Zenith Era, humanity endures in the shadow of a forgotten science they have come to worship as divine: the Vein. In the East, the Sanctum of Aurelion enforces purity through fire that burning those whose blood carries the so-called sin of impurity. In the West, the Aurex Consortium refines human existence into a resource, feeding their vast industrial engines with the life-force of the desperate through a merciless system known as the Vein Tax. Vael is not a hero. He is a ghost walking a world reduced to ash. There is something wrong with him, something that keeps him standing when he shouldn't be, and leaves him emptier each time it does. He remembers nothing of what came before, only a cold, persistent instinct to keep moving. He does not seek to save the world; to him, hope is merely a slower way to die. But something long buried has begun to stir again, something even the Sanctum's fire was never able to truly erase. The Black Vein. It is not simply a disease. It is a refusal. A fracture in the system itself. A remnant of something older, something that should have remained forgotten. And somewhere within its silence, something is watching, through their eyes. Something that remembers a world before it turned to ash. When a fractured resonance draws Vael into the orbit of a girl protecting a forbidden truth, and a High Executioner whose faith has hardened into something unbreakable, he is forced to move through a land where every form of power is born from suffering. In a world shaped by the Vein, the question is no longer who will survive. But what it means to remain human when your blood is no longer your own. --- This is an original work by me and is also published on Royal Road.

Sebastian pushed Sophie down against his office desk, his mouth crashing onto hers with a hunger that stole her breath. The kiss was fierce, desperate, the kind that left her dizzy as his hands trailed down her waist. She clung to him, arms wound tight around his neck, pulling him closer, tasting the heat of his need. His fingers skimmed lower, tugging at the fabric of her skirt, inch by inch, until it slid down her thighs. When they finally parted, both were panting, foreheads pressed together. He kissed along the curve of her neck, soft and unrelenting, his lips branding her skin with every touch. And finally, he pulled down her panties. He pushed her down on the desk as his gaze shifted to her already wet, dripping pussy. "Sebastian..." she whispered, trembling, "Someone could walk in," she reminded, her voice breathless. His smirk was wicked, his eyes dark with possession. "Then be quiet. Or don't. I want them to know you're mine." Her cheeks burned, but she didn't stop him. She couldn't. With every kiss, every touch, every word, she was falling deeper into the fire that was Sebastian Chisholm. And tonight, she wasn't going to resist the flames. She'd let him devour and ruin her as much as he wanted. And that was all he needed to fulfill his hunger.
