At Blackthorn University, magic is real, sarcasm is a weapon, and ancient secrets never stay buried for long.
Elara Winters thought surviving her first year would be her biggest challenge - until she discovers her bloodline is tied to a forgotten war, her enemies wear charming smiles, and her destiny might involve saving the world... or burning it down. With her grumpy academic rival-turned-reluctant partner, Sebastian Blackthorn, a misfit crew of friends with secrets of their own, Elara is drawn into a labyrinth of cursed vaults, magical politics, and a war that never really ended. As forgotten powers awaken and shadows crawl through campus halls, the only things sharper than their swords are their comebacks.
Romance, danger, and very questionable life choices collide in a story where love is messy, magic is dangerous, and nothing at Blackthorn stays buried forever. Because some destinies don't ask nicely. They drag you in kicking, screaming - and sarcastically armed.

Aeterna Noctis
In the dark, there are no saviors. Only predators... and the bargains we make with them. Elara Vance is dying. Her rare blood is both a curse and a death sentence, and when it begins to claim her younger sister, she is left with one desperate choice. Her only hope lies in a whispered legend: a mysterious, reclusive patron of the night who can grant miracles for a price. The price is her freedom. Kaelen Valerius is ancient, powerful, and weary of eternity. When a mortal woman invokes his ancient pact, he expects another fleeting distraction. But Elara is different. Her very presence is a spark in his endless night, and her blood sings a siren's call that threatens to shatter his icy control. He offers her a year of servitude in his gothic estate in exchange for the medicine that can save her sister's life. Trapped in a world of shifting alliances and ancient feuds, Elara finds herself drawn to the enigmatic vampire lord. Every guarded glance is a battle, every accidental touch a spark that could ignite a dangerous passion. But as a deadly conspiracy rises from the shadows, threatening to burn their dark world to the ground, the line between prisoner and obsession begins to blur. In a game of blood and power, can a love born of desperation survive the coming dawn? Or will the secrets of the eternal night consume them both? ---
The Dead Remember Us
Death was supposed to be the end. But at Blackthorn University, endings are just another beginning. Elara Winters has faced monsters, memory vaults, and the truth about who she once was.

Old gods stir. Magic breaks. And deep beneath the school that raised them, something lost is clawing its way back into the world. Love will be tested. Alliances will fracture. And when the Archive makes its final move, the dead won't stay buried for long. The past has chosen its champions. Now it's time to fight like hell for the future.Lengkap
The Hollow Crown
The vaults have been opened. The seals are broken. And something ancient has finally woken up. Elara Winters thought uncovering the truth about her past lives would give her answers. Instead, it's unleashed a dark force that was never meant to return - and it's coming for Blackthorn, for the world, and for her. As war brews beneath the cobblestones charm of campus, Elara and her allies must navigate fractured memories, forbidden magic, and the uncomfortable realization that their past selves weren't exactly hero's. With Sebastian by her side (Mostly to argue with her), Lucien's shadows growing darker, and Livia dancing the line between brilliance and chaos, the four must figure out how to stop a war they may have started centuries ago. Because history doesn't stay buried - and neither does gods. The time is ticking. Trust is fraying. And destiny? Well, it's more complicated than ever. Romance sharpens. Betrayals rise. And beneath the ivy-covered halls of Blackthorn, the real game beginsLengkap

The hidden heir:Beyond the crown
In the high-tech, magic-touched kingdom of **Aurelia**, every royal is born into the spotlight - except one. **Princess Elara Vale**, the youngest child of the royal family, was hidden from the world after a prophecy declared she would "awaken what was lost." To keep her safe, her parents erased her existence from public records. She grew up surrounded by love from her siblings but always behind walls, longing to see the world for herself. When her secret is accidentally leaked, Elara runs away - not in rebellion, but in search of freedom, identity, and purpose. In the neon city of **Ravenport**, she meets **Kael Arden**, a quiet mechanic with no memory of his childhood and a strange amulet that glows in her presence. As they form a bond, they're joined by a group of unexpected friends - a hacker, a healer, and a street magician - each searching for their own truth. Together, they discover that Kael is the lost prince of the long-vanished Shadow Realm, kidnapped at birth, and that the prophecy ties both of them to the future of their worlds. Through their journey, Elara learns what it means to live beyond a title. Kael learns what it means to belong. And their friends - ordinary people with extraordinary hearts - become the family they choose. It's a story about **finding friendship, courage, and self-worth** in a world that often defines you by what you were born to be - not who you choose to become.
The Demon's Tongue
Centuries ago, a demon known only as Kael the Silenced was bound inside a forbidden grimoire, his voice sealed by ancient magic. Any word he speaks can kill-and any mortal who hears him dies screaming. When Elara, a reclusive human scribe and linguistic scholar, is hired to translate the lost language of the grimoire, she doesn't realize she's breaking the final seal. Now, Kael is free-but his curse binds him to her. She's the only one who can hear his voice without dying, and the only one who can write the words that might unbind them both. Every word he speaks through her ink burns with power-and temptation.
OUTLAWED
Elara, a young girl born into a broken world, where the royal family holds absolute power and mages-those with the ability to manipulate the elements-are hunted to the death. After witnessing the brutal murder of her father at the hands of the royal family, Elara's mother hides her daughter's identity, pretending to be the mage in order to protect her. But when the royal family learns of a new mage bearing a powerful mark, they arrive at Elara's home, and her mother sacrifices herself to save her daughter. With her mother's death haunting her and the royal family's forces hot on her trail, Elara flees into the woods, unveiling the magic she's kept hidden for years. In the depths of the forest, Elara discovers a hidden group of mages-boys and girls, families-each with their own elemental power: fire, water, earth, air, blood, metal, and ice. For the first time in her life, Elara is not alone. But her refuge is fragile. As the royal family intensifies its search, Elara must decide whether to stay hidden in the shadows or rise up with these newfound allies to reclaim her life and bring justice to those who destroyed her family. With vengeance in her heart, Elara's journey becomes a fight for survival, and a rebellion against the oppressive rule that has outlawed her very existence.
Crown of Ruin

And a god older than nightmares has returned to claim the world Elara and her friends nearly died to save. Seperated by chaos and torn between timelines, The Blackthorn crew must navigate a world that is no longer theirs - and a war that no longer plays by the rules. The Revenant King was only the beginning. Now, the true heir of ruin has risen. And he remembers everything Elara was supposed to forget. As new enemies rise and impossible choices splinter the fragile alliances holding them together, Elara must decide: what is she willing to sacrifice to save the people she loves? Because hope doesn't wear armor anymore. It wears scars. And this time, the crown might not be enough.Lengkap
