[Side Story in the Shade Series] [Takes Place Before Storyline]
Before heroes, there was blood. Before fate, there was survival.
Scyllena's quiet life in the mountain village shatters when a brutal Helriox raid leaves her home in ruins and her family missing. Fleeing through frozen forests and snow-covered plains, she clings to life with nothing but sheer will and desperate hope.
When she is found, half-frozen and covered in blood, salvation comes from an unexpected source - the Nimor, fierce beings of legend who walk the razor's edge between saviors and predators. Thrust into their dangerous world, Scyllena must navigate uneasy alliances, unravel buried truths, and confront the haunting question: what happened to her brother?
As whispers of war and ancient magic spread across Emäel, Scyllena's journey for answers becomes a battle for survival - and a destiny far greater than she could have ever imagined. Before the rise of heroes, before the tales of empires and rebellions, begins the story of a girl carved from loss and forged in fire.
Her blood runs red, but her story runs deeper.

Especially when she, literally, bumped into Ethan. For Ethan who has been isolating himself and absolutely independent that he pushed everyone away, and Skye being stubborn and not in-the-least shy on saying what she thought openly, fighting and bickering was unpreventable.

Reasons to Stay | ✓
Ethan's standing on Highland Bridge at midnight, ready to end it all, when a girl appears out of nowhere with ice cream and zero intention of leaving him alone. Riley's either an angel or completely crazy - he hasn't decided which. But her offer is simple: give her until her birthday, just two months away, to prove life is worth something. After that, whatever he decides is up to him. He expects nothing. Instead, he gets midnight drives and way too many milkshakes. Gets random star quotes she's memorized just to make him roll his eyes. Gets stupid jokes that somehow make him laugh when he swore he'd forgotten how. But the closer they get, the more he sees through her smile to the shadows underneath. And as her birthday approaches, Ethan realizes keeping Riley alive might be the only thing worth living for.Complete

Finding Obsidian
He brushed his lips against my jaw, his dark hair falling over his brow. "Open your eyes," he commanded. "Look at me." I followed his orders and looked into the raven-black depths before me. I saw my entranced gaze reflected in his glaring one. "Tell me what you see." I kept on looking at him, searching for something, anything, that remained of the person he used to be. They say the eyes are the windows to the soul. But his eyes were so dark, so empty . . . "Nothing. I see nothing," I whispered. He smirked, his gaze still on me. He pulled away, leaving me feeling cold. "Exactly. You see nothing - that's because there's nothing there." ** How much can a person change in just three years?

But what they don't know is that the true threat is lurking just beyond their grasp. The Dead Squad twisted survivors of a cruel and horrific past have returned. Their vengeance is sharp, their fury unquenchable, and they will stop at nothing to burn everything to the ground. And above them all, an ancient, ruthless organization, built on manipulation and fear, pulls the strings from the shadows, as its monstrous creations break free to hunt those they once called their own. And survival? It demands more than strength, it demands a sacrifice that no one can escape. In this ruthless battle for the throne, where betrayal cuts deeper than any blade and power is the most dangerous prize who will outwit, outlast, and rise from the shadows to claim victory in a game where survival itself is a deadly gamble?
