When a nosebleed causes his blood to touch an ancient manuscript, linguist Dr. Alistair Finch suddenly reads its impossible script-and hears a name: Azazel. Enter Elara Vance, who reveals the truth: the Codex is a prison for a demonic entity, and Alistair's rare "golden blood" makes him the key to containing it-or unleashing it. But former Guard member Silas Blackwood wants the Codex too, not for power, but to resurrect his dead family. As Alistair translates deeper, the Scribe doesn't tempt-it validates, feeding his grief over his parents' unsolved murder and showing him visions the Guard has hidden. When Blackwood's forces attack, Alistair learns the devastating truth about his parents' deaths. On the winter solstice, bound to an altar as Blackwood's ritual begins, Alistair discovers the Codex's final secret: a choice. Sever the demon forever-but lose all connection to his parents' memory. Or fuse with it-become a monster, but carry their legacy within him forever. The choice is his alone. Some cages are made to be opened. Others are made to be carried.

The cycle didn't end. It just found a new face. The boys of St. Jude's Prep survived the night in the Mirror World, but the cost was higher than they ever imagined. The ghosts of Emma, Susan, Karen, Phoebe, and Alexandra have gone dormant, their light extinguished to save the boys' lives. Now, Luke, James, Justin, Adam, and Louis are truly alone in a school that has finally stopped pretending to be safe. The ancient bone-clock beneath the foundation is still ticking, and the "One in the Tower" has wasted no time in selecting his next target. When a new scholarship student named Alice Thorne arrives-bearing a haunting resemblance to the murdered Alexandra and the surname of the school's dark founder-the boys realize the ritual is entering its most dangerous phase. As the gear-shaped mark on Luke's back begins to pulse, he realizes he is no longer just a protector. He is a vessel. With his bloodline connecting him to the killer and his eyes starting to reflect the "Between," Luke must fight the urge to claim Alice for the Tower before the Winter Solstice begins. In a race through restricted 1920s archives and halls filled with shifting mirrors, the boys must find a way to break the "Lease" of St. Jude's. But how do you kill a Shadow that is starting to wear your own face?

Cassandra Stewart is in a bind, and her loving husband is struggling to keep them afloat in late-stage capitalism.

Stranger...more occult risks than she realizes?

Katsuki Bakugo x Female Reader Post time skip "This all started in Japan. Their number 15 hero, name Dynamight, is the main hero in this case. His agency asked their Hero Public Safety Commission to reach out to us, and specifically asked for your assistance in this." That shocked you. You weren't a normal hero, you didn't occupy any space on the American hero charts. The CIA kept your presence a secret from the public as the type of things you dealt with also needed to be kept a secret from the public. Shit, this must be bad. Mx Ellias continued talking, "Right now, lucky for us, the occult hasn't made any moves in America. So, you will be transferred to Japan for the time being." When an evil coven of witches attempts to bring All for One back to life, who better to bring in than you? And when you need an angsty, sexy love interest, who better to bring in than Katsuki Bakugo? (shitty description, I'm aware. My deepest apologies, I have no idea what I am doing) TRIGGER WARNINGS: This book contains a suicide that is very important for the plot. This book will also contain adult language, gore, and eventually hard core smut.

Quote for this book: There is no greater glory than love, and no greater punishment than jealousy - Unknown. Belladonna Garrow has spent her years watching someone else live the life she always wanted. A life with a loving family, surrounded by loyal friends, radiates happiness, and pulls the attention from all around. While everyone else seems to have a place in the world, Bella is left with loneliness, silence, and a growing bitterness she can go longer ignore or suppress. When she discovers a mysterious book said to grant every wish, fulfill every desire, and answer every selfish thought hidden within its pages, Bella sees an opportunity. Finally, she believes she has a way to rewrite fate in her favor. And take the life she believes she deserves. But some books are not meant to give. Some are meant to take, to teach, and to rectify. And when jealousy guides the pen, the consequences are written in ink that cannot be erased. A short dark fantasy about envy, karma, and the price of wishing for something that isn't yours. Poetic Justice mildly explores themes of envy, emotional neglect, bitterness, and the consequences of selfish desires. If any of this feels too heavy or triggering, I ask that you proceed with caution or not at all.

Four classmates. One dead friend. And something in Laurel Creek refuses to stay buried. Laurel Creek has always been quiet. For Ayaan, Noah, Maya, and Marcus, life mostly means school, hanging out, bad jokes, and trying to survive being teenagers. For Noah, it also means finding excuses to talk to Hailey Carter-the quiet girl who barely seems interested in anyone. Then Zachary Hayes dies. Police call it a robbery gone wrong. The town moves on. But his friends can't. Because Zach wasn't acting normal before his death. And the details surrounding what happened inside his house don't make sense. As rumours spread and strange events begin appearing across Laurel Creek, the four begin searching for answers they were never meant to find. Their search pulls them toward forgotten stories, impossible events, and something hidden beneath the normal life of their town. Something old. Something watching. And something that may have already noticed them. But while Noah is busy chasing feelings he doesn't fully understand- something else has started following him back. Because Zach wasn't the first. And if they keep digging- he might not be the last. DEAD DOMAIN: THE FLICKER is the chilling first installment in a supernatural horror series featuring mystery, friendship, strange phenomena, slow-burn romance, and the kind of darkness that doesn't disappear when the lights come back on.

I accidentally almost killed someone with magic. My mother disappeared right after. And now I'm stuck in England with the grandmother she spent sixteen years warning me about. Tabetha Clarke is rich, terrifying, suspiciously wrinkle-free, and lives in a mansion full of silent servants who disappear when nobody's looking. Literally. Then there's the cat. The demon accusations. The midnight exorcisms. And the tiny little issue of my magic feeding off living things. Apparently, that's bad. Now everyone's acting like I'm either destined to become the most powerful witch in the family... or the reason it finally destroys itself. Personally, I'd just like one normal day and maybe a waffle that doesn't come with emotional trauma.

In a vividly imagined, mystical world, Shannon Sage weaves a tale of angels, demons, and enchanted beings, creating an immersive narrative filled with wonder, magic, and profound spiritual exploration.

Himiko Kawamura is sixteen, red-haired, and living an ordinary life in everyday Tokyo. But when a mysterious encounter draws her into the world of sorcerers and curses, her quiet routine unravels forever.

Retke's life runs on small, reliable rituals. Morning cola. Errands. The television left on so the silence has somewhere to go. Then a pamphlet finds its way into his pocket, and a group of quiet, pale, impossibly composed people begins appearing at the edges of his days. They speak softly about compassion. About purity. About waiting for the right thing before you consume it. They are not what they appear to be. Cannibula Rasa is a slow-burn psychological horror about ideology as seduction, appetite as philosophy, and the moment a man realises the world he thought he understood has been quietly replaced by something else.

A priest is dead. Nailed to the ceiling of his own church. Detective Mark Brennan has seen plenty of bodies, but never anything like this. No witnesses. No weapon. Just blood - too much of it - and strange symbols carved into the altar. The case goes nowhere until a curly-haired stranger shows up at the crime scene. He calls himself a priest. He smokes like a chimney, talks like he knows more than he should, and looks at Mark like he's already figured out the ending. His name is Silas Voss. And he claims the symbols are a language - one that shouldn't exist. Now the city is tearing itself apart. Cops are going crazy. Nightmares won't let Mark sleep. And the only person who might have answers is the one he trusts the least. Some doors shouldn't be opened. Some letters shouldn't be read. But someone wrote one anyway. In blood.
