'To win a war she was born into, she had to have the Devil on her side.' ••• Nephele thought she was normal. She had considered herself average, even with the demons that trailed behind her like a looming shadow. But that was before. When a mysterious man, who she encounters multiple times, kidnaps her and takes her to his home, a home the mundane call 'Hell', she is lost. She doesn't know what to do, nor why the mysterious man makes her feel things that should only exist in books and television shows. But when things get dramatically worse, otherworldly beings threatening her life, she is even more lost that she has ever been; even more so than when she was younger. In a compassionate story about betrayal, heartbreak, growth and love, Nephele navigates the new life she was thrown into, and must bring this life to an end before its too late. ••• (Mature Content - Viewer Discretion advised) THIS IS REASONABLY CLICHE. DEAL WITH IT. ~<>~ Cover credit to @darkly

"First you captivated me... then you held me captive." Evelyn was like most college-aged girls working a part-time job when she met Caleb, who came in to her life when she wanted him least but needed him most. He captivated her. By the end of summer, she had fallen in love with him. It was then that he wanted her to meet his parents. And that's when everything changed. Caleb was not the man Evelyn thought he was. He came from a secluded village that did things much differently from the rest of society.

Peering up at him, I can tell he knows everything. My plans to take his crown... again. To free myself of his iron grasp forever. To twist my knife into his cruel, cold heart. He knows all of it.
