Gray isn't a color. It's a thief.
It steals memories, leaches vibrancy, and muffles screams in the chilling reality known as GrayWorld. For fifteen-year-old Kai, grieving his mother, arrival isn't a choice - it's an abduction into a place where time corrodes the self. Here, newcomers, Graylings, find their identities fading like breath on a cold mirror, their bodies subject to arbitrary, horrifying transformations: shrink into nothingness or expand until you burst.
Forget the sun. Forget warmth. Forget who you are. The metallic taste of the lavish food only accelerates the Fade. Asking questions invites punishment. Survival means clinging to fragile anchors - a stopped pocket watch, a fraying photograph - while navigating a landscape of endless gray corridors, lurking Drifters who hunger for warmth, and warring Copies split into hunted Blacks and ruling Whites.
When Kai witnesses the chilling "mercy" of the Butcher, a White copy who harvests souls, he's pulled into the shadows by Silas, a haunted Black copy bearing the weight of sacrifice. Finding refuge in a derelict farm hiding an impossible secret - a subterranean garden pulsing with ghostly light - Kai must ally with the cynical, scarred survivor Jax to unravel the secrets of GrayWorld's brutal Karma system and the nature of the unseen Arbiter who rules from his Tower of Bone.
But in a world designed to erase you, can Kai hold onto his memories, his identity, his very soul? Can he trust his allies when survival demands impossible choices? And what happens when the deepest corruption isn't just in the ruling powers, but potentially within the very fabric of reality... and himself?
Dive into the first volume of an epic dark fantasy series that blends psychological horror with intricate world-building. "GRAYWORLD" is a visceral, mind-altering journey into a reality where memory is currency, identity is fragile, and survival demands a confrontation with the shadows within and without.

EDITED ~~~~ Book two of Forgotten series. ~~~~ Shey Lazera felt she was not destined to have a mate.

Each wave of fire separating her and her wolf, each wave chipping away at her wolf's spirit until she was barely noticeable anymore, her power diminished.

A shifter whose wolf hides away from the world in the human side. So it comes as a surprise when she trespasses in a territory, fucks up an escape attempt, and gets dragged soaking wet in front of another Alpha, who refuses to reject her like she wants. ~~~ Luka Sterling had been forced into the Alpha position after an accident killed his two older brothers and his father. He had taken up the mantle to take it off of his fragile mother but he knew it did not belong to him.

Her demands sparks something in his wolf and rejecting her is now he last thing he wants and he demands her submission instead. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Shey helps Luka figure out just how much of and Alpha he was meant to be and Luka helps her learn just how much she deserves to be loved.

In this new, unrelenting conflict, there won't be any winners, only more devastation.

Whisper of Destiny
In a world where supernatural bloodlines shape fate, Amiriah has always been an enigma. Rescued from a brutal asylum where scientists sought to strip supernatural creatures of their power, she grew up among werewolves, but her true heritage remains a mystery, even to herself. Now at twenty, Amiriah's life takes an unexpected turn when she crosses paths with Kairos, the feared Dark Prince, cursed to never find his soulmate. Yet, against all odds, the curse shatters in her presence. Drawn to her in ways he cannot explain, Kairos keeps the truth hidden, unsure of how to tell her that she is not only his mate but also destined for a fate far greater than either of them imagined. Their journey takes them to Valeris, the ancient vampire kingdom, where the city itself seems to awaken in Amiriah's presence. Doors unlock at her touch, spirits whisper her name, and long-sealed places reveal themselves to her alone. As ancient forces stir, the city's Elders watch her closely; some see her as a threat, and others see her as a fulfilled prophecy. But beneath the intrigue of Valeris, a far darker danger lurks. The spirit of the scientist who once tormented Amiriah is rising, seeking to return to the physical world, and he sees her as the key to his revival. With war looming between supernatural factions, hidden prophecies unraveling, and a love that defies fate, Amiriah must uncover the truth of her past and embrace the power within her before it's too late.
