It's not from the stars or the streetlights, but from a particular essence, a subtle radiance that seems to emerge from the darkness itself: Luminescence. It lends the night its unique beauty, where darkness transforms into a soft and almost magical light. This glow dances with the shadows, revealing hidden shades and turning the darkness into something almost supernatural. After an evening filled with fleeting laughter and lights, Théodora, a simple living soul, follows the secret paths of the forest and senses, behind the soft glow, a darker reality. At a turn shrouded in shadows, she finds herself face to face with a nocturnal creature, a predator in search of prey. In the blink of an eye, her world shifts, and the delicate luminescence merges with a dangerous darkness. Immersed in a world where every shadow hides a secret, Théodora uncovers the mysteries of the night, revealed only to those who see beyond the visible. This luminescence is both soothing and intriguing, an invitation to explore the unknown and to embrace the beauty hidden within the darkness.

BOUND (#1, of Crows and Thorns) by AvaLarksen

[THIS STORY WILL BE TAKEN DOWN ON SEPTEMBER 30, 2024] She's the reason the heart of my family had been torn apart. Because that night, I'd unwittingly chosen her. Now she's my prey. Nelle:- Cursed by a terrifying dark power, I'm a secret hidden in plain sight and trapped on my family estate, hardly leaving its gated confines. For no one is permitted to wield magic not approved by those we serve-the Horned Gods. And if my secret is discovered, everyone I love will die. But, of late, I barely can control the darkness writhing beneath my flesh. I desperately need to unearth its secrets, which means escaping my family home to seek answers to dangerous questions from a monster. The only person I can turn to for help is Graysen Crowther-a ruthless enforcer and, ugh, my jerk-of-a-fiancé. Of course, there's always a catch with Graysen. This time, he desires a kiss. But that one kiss awakes something more dangerous than desire and more mysterious than even the magic of the insidious marriage contract that binds us together. Graysen:- I'm the one entrusted by my family to uncover the depths of Nelle's sinister secret. And worse, our mutual loathing and hatred for our arranged union runs alongside an undeniable attraction. Yet, time is running out fast. I'm recklessly trying to figure out what she is, and far more irritating, why that strange hyperawareness has always existed between us. Threats sweep in from all sides. Even her own family needs her dead to shield themselves from the Horned Gods' wrath. Because while I'm hunting Nelle, something else is hunting her too. And there's no way in Nine Hells I'll allow her to be stolen. ['Of Crows and Thorns' is an epic saga that belongs to Nelle and Miss Catt. We alternate between these two leads, along with the Crowther brothers. All the novels, no matter who the leads are or what timeline they occur, drive the dire dilemma of Nelle's storyline.] Cover Design by Ren Tachibana

Facing opposition in tracking down the perpetrators and obstacles in creating what is later to become the Order of Advanced Elementals, Tom, Emmeline, and the Elementals of London will face a threat beyond their imagining, one only found in their nightmares.
