Running for your life while being pursued by a glowing, evil demon? Yeah, not exactly how Rani had imagined her life would turn out. Once a normal girl, her world was turned upside down when she was marked by the gods-an unintentional demon hunter with a knack for making enemies. Now, at 19, Rani's life is anything but normal. Her job? Track down and neutralize rogue demons before they tear apart the world. Easy, right? Not when they're powerful, relentless, and sometimes... deeply personal.
Iblees, the demon who's been haunting her for months. Chasing her through the streets of the city, his hunger palpable, his presence an oppressive weight. There's no escape-not until Rani corners him. But just as she's about to catch her breath, she crashes into a human girl, a distraction that could cost her everything.
What's worse? The girl isn't just some innocent bystander. She's drawn to Rani in a way that feels too familiar, as if her presence is more than just coincidence. The chase becomes a race against time, not only to stop Iblees from unleashing chaos, but to understand the strange pull between her and the girl who may be more than she seems.
In a world where gods, demons, and dark secrets rule, Rani will have to decide if she can trust the one person who might just be her undoing-or her salvation.
After barely surviving an attempt on her life, alchemy student Ariel investigates her new supernatural roommates as possible suspects. Nothing can prepare her for the secrets she is about to uncover about her own family-or her infuriating demon roommate's constant attempts to get under her skin.
Season 1 of The Wicked Series
***
Ariel is no stranger to bad luck. Life has been an uphill battle with an estranged father and a stepbrother who hates her. Studying alchemy feels like a dream come true, at least until Ariel suspects one of her new supernatural roommates might be trying to kill her. Refusing to be an easy target, she uses her alchemy skills to protect herself and dives headfirst into her own investigation.
When unsettling truths about Ariel's family and the world she lives in come to light, she realizes that those she suspects most might be her best allies. None of her newfound friends are quite what they seem-especially Haze. A demon of sloth should not be this hard to avoid, yet Haze defies all expectations, making it increasingly difficult for Ariel to deny the growing attraction between them. Still, the closer Ariel gets to finding out the truth, the more she fears her trust may have been misplaced.
