NusuAbinem
Jacob de la Cruz uses his father's surname to keep his otherwise long name short, despite his hatred for the man. His father, Zeus de la Cruz is a tyrant who rules over the Abinem Land.
Zeus' rival, Nathaniel Nunez, was once his best friend. Now a rival leader, Nathan is a kind man whose family members are Abinem. His seemingly cheerful daughter, Dorothy, is a close friend to Jacob and possesses mysterious knowledge. Jacob's best friend Ibrahim Nyson, is a skeptic of magic who was separated from his biological family at birth and continues to search for them.
One day, tired of everything, Jacob starts playing a twisted long game. And that game changes everything. It reveals too much.
Set in a magical version of the Philippines, this fourth novel of the **Family** series is recommended for readers aged 14 and up, though I wrote it at 12!
