Nero died at the young age of 20, before even graduating college. He crawled out of a pond in a strangers garden and was met by a beautiful blonde boy, Pierce, who informed him of his demise, and that since his Spirit made it through the portal, rather than Ascending, it meant that he was destined to become the Familiar of a Sorcerer in that realm. Pierce took him to his uncle Malachai, who is one of the most prestigious and powerful Sorcerers of his time.
Nero quickly displays his incredible talent for magic, drawing attention from The Embassy, the organization in charge of managing the magical world. For someone of Nero's skillet, he would be considered too dangerous to let pair up with a Sorcerer, especially one of Malachai's caliber. Because of this, they choose to hide the extent of Nero's abilities from The Embassy, so they can work together. Once passing the trials set by Malachai, Nero was given his name and a new identity as his Familiar. As such, the pair were expected to fight against evil and slay Demons who would seek to harm humans and cause mass destruction to the mundane realm. As they spent time together, the chemistry between Malachai and Nero becomes undeniable, leaving them to question how close their bond grows and whether or not to cross the line of expectations for a Familiar and Sorcerer pair.
Things quickly prove to be more than they seem within The Embassy, leaving Malachai, Nero, and Pierce to sift through what are truth and what are lies. As things grow increasingly dangerous the farther they investigate, the trio risks everything to uncover the truth behind The Embassy and the magical world that they live in.
A story of magic, deception, and proof that there is life (and love) after death.

Fate can be cruel.
Especially when an age old prophecy by a group of oracles says you are fated to lose everyone you care about. On top of possibly being rejected by your mate, or killed if they find out who you are.
On the upside though, that same prophecy claims that you have some amazing powers even though you don't. So that's something, at least.

Isabell McVeigh is 14 years old when she has to separate from her adoptive parents.
She winds up just where she was warned to stay far away from. The blood brood pack. She is forced to stay and is made an omega. She still has an escape plan, though it's going to take time to execute.
Once the alpha steps down and his son becomes alpha, the command keeping her there will be null and void. Plus with everyone distracted it will be the perfect time to escape.
She just has to hope she can make it until then and that she doesn't meet her mate. If she does and he rejects her, all he'll will break loose because that will be the start of it all.
Will she be able to survive until her powers fully show themselves and she takes her rightful place or will she be found and extinguished before that can happen?
