The Second World War, which drove humanity to the abyss, has not only left death and destruction in its wake but has also opened the door to another reality.

In the ruins of the old times and an emerging new society with mighty rulers, the so-called Vaesen, the few survivors fight desperately for their existence while the remaining Cultists of the Thule Society work secretly to seal the world's fate once more. But amid chaos and despair, hope also arises. A Shapeshifter driven by revenge and an Bloodhunter of the Strigoi who harbors secrets of her own becomes caught up in the intrigue. Together, they embark on a hunt that could decide whether the world remains the same or undergoes another bloody transformation. In a storm of attraction, prejudice, and magic, Zane and Myreille must not only sort out their feelings and overcome the hostile Vaesen's entanglements but also fight against the impending doom that threatens to devour the last lives. **** NOVELLA Translation of our german ONC contribution 2024 German ONC24 WINNER Alternate History, Dark-Fantasy, Romance, Noir, Mystery-Mash-up :D 🥇Milestone Awards - Fantasy 🥇Sunflower Awards - Fantasy 🥇The Prose Gem Award - Fantasy 🥇ELPIDA Awards - Fantasy 🥇 The Sapphirian J Awards - Fantasy 🥈 Cloud Awards - General Fiction

Seduce. Crowd her until she can no longer breathe. She fights them each step of the way, but they won't have any of it. Her emergence is closing in, the world shifting simply because she exists. And the Horsemen? They're not just willing to chase her. They'll burn the world to keep her. A dark fantasy romance filled with tension, supernatural power plays, and a heroine fighting against fate.

Avarice Blacksteel Book 2 ni Xonereth

Most of us long to "Be" but when the path gets too costly, or steep, we take solace in what we "Have." Remove the trappings of what we own and then what is the sum of us? They were the survivors, abandoned by the allies who swore to protect, in the ultimate gesture of greed and betrayal. Their world plunged into annihilation and chaos. With the passage of years in this blighted landscape order was established anew. Those who had been anonymous before the war found their will to rule, those who had experienced the comforts and ease of western life, thrust into darkness and despair. This brutal conflict had awoken those long sleeping, those who had ceased to care, those of immense power, the ones entrusted with the safe keeping of the often volatile mankind. Although their parallel world too was at risk, lethargy and arrogance ruled them. Against the backdrop of this savage landscape the saga of three such tribes of survivors unfold, and the unwitting chosen among them. One tribe sought to prosper via savagery, one by organized military might, and the other who ruled with no more than fairness and love. Three tribes thrown together, competing for the limited resources to survive, in a world teetering on the brink of total decimation. Driven by human avarice.
