    Nocturnia is a world divided by blood and power. Kaelen Vane is an Enforcer for the Iron Syndicate, a man whose feral nature has been weaponized by a system that views him as a tool rather than a soul. He is the mongrel of the Gut, a hunter destined to live and die in the smog. Lyraen 'Lyre' Thorne is the Indigo Prince, the delicate yet dangerous heir to the Obsidian Throne. His life is a curated masterpiece of darkness and clinical detachment, governed by a King who has turned ancient magic into a parasitic cage. When a violent encounter in the Deep End triggers a Bound Singularity, the static in their minds settles into a lethal symphony. They are no longer a Prince and a stray, they are a glitch in the world's architecture. Hunted by the Syndicate's Hounds and haunted by the ghosts of a forgotten era, Kaelen and Lyraen must descend into the Ghost Sector, a graveyard of ancient archives and digital ruins. As the Bond shifts from a source of terror into a deep, obsessive equilibrium, they realize that to save the world's heart, they must first burn down the throne that stole it.

    Advait Mann and Meher Kapoor were never meant to coexist- let alone fall in love. At the prestigious Delhi Institute of Elite Studies, they were known for one thing: their rivalry. Cold glares, sharp words, and a hatred so intense that it became impossible to ignore. But fate had a twisted sense of humor. When their families decide to turn an old friendship into a lifelong bond, Advait and Meher are forced into an arrangement neither of them wants- an engagement that feels more like a punishment than a promise. Living under the same expectations, fighting the same battles, and slowly discovering the cracks behind each other's perfect facades... hate begins to blur. What starts as a war of egos turns into something far more dangerous- feelings. But love was never simple for them. With broken pasts, unhealed wounds, and truths that threaten to tear them apart, they must decide- Do they hold on to the hate that kept them safe? Or risk everything for a love they never believed in?

When Duncan Buchanan and Isobel Porter met at a masquerade ball, they thought they'd found someone to change their distaste for matrimony. When their mothers tore them out of each other's arms, they found themselves trapped between two feuding families, each matriarch willing to destroy the other, even at the cost of their children's happiness. Duncan and Isobel knew nothing of their families' hatred for each other, nor did they care to become involved with whatever scheming acts of revenge their mothers are planning. Willing to sacrifice everything they have just to be together, they arrange an assignation. Nothing could prepare them for what happened in the churchyard that night though, driving them from town and each other. Heartbroken by their year of separation, and the rumours about his indiscreet associations, Isobel is hesitant to employ Duncan on her cattle station. Had his mother sent him here to use his seductive charms to take what she felt was owed to her? Having spent the last year drowning his sorrows in a whiskey bottle, Duncan was confused to discover Isobel was his new employer, eager to involve him in the running of her station. Why would she allow him back into her life after so long? Was this some trick instigated by her mother to ruin his family? As Duncan and Isobel continue working together, they can no longer ignore the love they once felt for each other, the intense raw emotion again burning so close to the surface. Will their families finally allow them a chance to be together? Or will the two lovers be separated once and for all? Warning: contains sex, strong language, and some violence.

    She ordered him on her birthday. Drunk, heartbroken, talking to a television at midnight. She gave them a photograph she barely remembered keeping, described a man she had buried under years of careful forgetting, and hung up on the couch with champagne on her breath and no memory of what she had done. By morning, there was a crate at her door. His name is Hobin. He is warm and still and precise, and his face belongs to a ghost she did not know she was still carrying. He has no memory before the sound of her voice. He says he will stay until she asks him not to. He says: do not ask me to be less. But someone built him. And someone wants him back. Solène Carter is not a woman who breaks easily. She is a woman who has already broken, quietly, and rebuilt herself without the manual. What she is not prepared for is a love that dismantles her slowly, questions her grief, and refuses to be smaller than what it is - or a company that considers that love a malfunction to be corrected.
