They married him to her when he was ten and she was nineteen, and the clay tablet of their vow began cracking before the ink was dry. Nim came south from a burning city with the last secrets of a dead queendom carved into her skin. She did not come to be a wife. She came to find a ritual buried in the royal archives. The one that can trap a god in a human body and kill them both. She has six months. She is going to need the boy-king's blood. She did not come for his bastard brother. Ur-Nungal has spent ten years pretending to be the wrong kind of prince. He drinks. He gambles. He sleeps in temple courtyards with women whose names he never asks. And underneath all of it, he is the one man in the empire whose name is on no tablet, whose oaths cannot be broken, whose silence has kept a city of ghosts alive. He cannot be bound. He cannot lie himself into death. He is free. Until he meets her. Now, in a marble city of black ziggurats and oath-blood magic, three siblings are circling a throne their own god is hungry for. A boy who whispers because his words carve themselves into flesh. A queen whose every kiss is a slow-motion suicide. A bastard who has spent his life refusing his name and is about to be asked to claim it. And a sister, ash in her lungs and a thousand names on a curse-tablet, who has already done the math: someone in this family has to die for the kingdom to live. They are all right. They are all damned. In forty days the city celebrates the Shattering. The one night each year when oaths can be broken without dying. The Marru host is forty days from the eastern pass. A planetary alignment that can bind a god opens forty days from now. Three clocks. One night. Four people who will burn the world to keep each other. Some loves are bindings. Some bindings are graves.

You remember your first love... Even when they come back from the dead. When Rene Barnett returns to his family's mansion after his father's death, he expects nothing but dust and the weight of old memories. Instead, he finds a boy chained in the cellar beneath the mansion. Malachi Delaney, the boy who vanished two years ago. But he's no longer the same boy Rene once knew-he's a vampire now, one of the demons whispered in the town's myths. As Rene struggles with the truth of what Malachi has become and tries to uncover why he was imprisoned beneath his home, he begins to question everything he thought he knew-about his town, his family, and himself. And when another vampire arrives in Saint Rivers, secrets long buried begin to rise, dragging magic, grief, and forgotten history to the surface. As desire tangles with danger, Rene is caught in a haunting pull between the boy he once loved, and the monster he might become.

Everyone expected the quiet princess to die. The tyrant king had buried wives before, and the fragile girl forced to marry him was supposed to become just another forgotten tragedy. But the soft-spoken queen does something no one expected. She survives. While the court fears the monster on the throne, she remains beside him calm, gentle, and far stronger than anyone realizes. At first, the king tells himself she is simply useful. Her mind is sharp. Her kindness dangerous in a palace built on cruelty. And kings protect what is useful. But the longer she stands beside him, the more the kingdom begins to notice something unsettling. The tyrant who trusted no one now watches her like she is the most valuable thing in his world. His words remain cold. His temper still deadly. But everyone can see the truth the king refuses to admit. The monster on the throne has fallen in love. And the quiet queen who was supposed to die has learned something even more dangerous The only way anyone could ever hurt her... Is by surviving the king who would burn kingdoms to the ground to protect what belongs to him. (Book 1 )

I died quietly. No grand tragedy, no heroic sacrifice. Just a hospital bed, white sheets, and the dull scent of antiseptic. My name had faded long before my breath. They said I was kind. Gentle. A girl who deserved more. The gods must have heard. I opened my eyes to a new world-a kingdom of swords, sorcery, and shattered skies. My body, once frail and broken, now thrummed with power. Golden magic pulsed beneath my skin The gift of healing. But this gift became my curse the day I saved the Duke.

Betrayed by her family and betrothed to a prince, Arlen runs for her life-only to be found by the domineering Duke Liam Crawford, the man she should fear most. Cold, commanding, wealthy and irresistibly magnetic, he saves her with a single touch and claims her as his own. Every whispered command, every lingering caress, draws her deeper into a treacherous game with a man who sees her not as a wife, but as a prize to possess. In his arms, danger tastes like desire... but will she surrender or survive? *** Weekly updates on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. *** ⓒ Serenascent / TENBOOK / FLORIEL
