While most books are written from the hero's POV, this one is written from the villain's.
With a city bound by a deal, the edges of Afeda are caged by a thick mass of fog.
And a group of criminals are carelessly chosen to risk their lives in order to see what's beyond the cloud, wildlife? endless fog? beasts?
Jazal Von Glass, a 17 year old bandit is up the thrill of being in that group.
And with her being an orphan, Jazal faces a sea of thirst for family. But has swam in betrayal all her life, therefore making it close to impossible that she never has one.
Although she may need to let her walls down for Silas and Casey, the only two boys who have a chance on getting her through the fog.

Generations pass, and the once-small oasis blossoms into a thriving city-state, Whisperwind. The current Keeper of Whispers, Elara, grapples with a new challenge - whispers emanating from a vast, unknown desert beyond their borders.

Through tireless research and a newfound understanding of the whispers, they discover a way to offer aid, bridging the energy signature of the dying civilization with their own spring. The whispers fade, replaced by a comforting silence. Whisperwind stands as a testament to the power of communication and the delicate balance between humanity and the unknown.

It Wasn't Love ✔️
"Fuck." He whispers into my neck, sending a thrill of excitement through my body. His lips still smothered kisses over my neck and his hands roamed my body, starting at my chest, going down to my stomach. Caressing my soft skin, his thumb trailed circles on my groin before slightly slipping into the waistband of my jeans. My breath catches in my throat as I pull at the hoodie that covered his chiselled body. Understanding, Jacob pulls it off in one swift movement before attaching his lips back on my neck. Sucking and biting it before flicking his tongue over the sore spot. A quiet moan leaves my mouth and I clasp my hand over it, denying any noise to escape.
