The Seducer's Gambit

Lucien Devereaux is a master of seduction, a manipulator of hearts and minds, and a man who has never lost a game of power. In the grand city of Ebonveil, where vampires, werewolves, and elves walk among the elite, Lucien thrives in the shadows-until he meets her.

She is unlike any he has ever encountered-mysterious, untouchable, and completely unimpressed by his charms. When she leaves him with a cryptic message and disappears into the night, Lucien finds himself drawn into a web of secrets far older and more dangerous than his own ambitions.

Soon, whispers of The Council-the unseen rulers of the supernatural world-begin to surface. The invitation to the Obsidian Spire is more than just a meeting; it's a challenge. A warning. A test of his very existence.

As Lucien delves deeper into the mystery, he must decide: is this just another game to win, or has he finally met the one opponent who can beat him at his own craft?

In a world of eternal players, forbidden power, and deadly seduction, Lucien is about to discover that some games are far more dangerous than they seem.

And in the end, it may not be his game at all.
