The marked ones have always been peace keepers of the inferno realms and the eternal realms and are constantly keeping the fragile balance of the worlds in check.
Horrors and magic fill their world, and creatures whispering of myths indirectly help humanity. But not all as it seems, as a rouge from the inferno realms steals one of the three jewels of power and awakens the summering crystal being.
Maryanne, a marked one, must join forces with the young guardian and retrieve the Jewel, but hints of betrayal and sacrifice are near far from both sides, as the myths are real and their secrets unravel, changing everything they know, with the thief closing in on the other two jewels and tensions can the protagonists prevent their realms collapsing in on themselves

She opened the gate. He plans to crown himself through it. Marked by the Goddess of Blood, Syerin Cayde thought unlocking the ancient gate would set the world free. Instead, it tore the fabric between realms, unleashing shadows, stirring gods-and waking Varethin. Once ruler of Tenebris, Varethin is no Origin Lord. He's a false god with a stolen throne, and now, he wants more: to shatter the divine order and replace it with one of his own. To do it, he needs Syerin's mark. Her blood. Her death. But Syerin is no longer just the key. She's becoming something else entirely. To stop him, she must reunite the broken gods, close the gate she tore open, and confront the power rising inside her. But when the only person who truly understands her darkness-Riven Knox, marked by the God of Death-comes back into her life, the lines between love and destruction begin to blur. The gods are watching. Varethin is rising. And this time, divinity may not survive her.
The Hollow Throne - Book 1 : Beneath the Veil
He was sent to kill a threat. He brought her back instead. Now the Veil is shifting-and something buried is starting to wake. Nimya was supposed to be collateral. A mortal girl, found near a supernatural breach and marked by a scent not quite human. Commander Ryn of the Sentinarchs-god-born, oath-bound, and feared even by his own-should've followed protocol. Instead, he dragged her across the Veil. Now bound to a divine soldier she doesn't trust, Nimya finds herself trapped inside the Sanctum-a sacred fortress of rituals, relics, and bloodlines that see her as a threat. But something else sees her too. When Ryn touched her, the Veil stirred. Something ancient is watching from the other side. Something chained beneath the world-restless, patient, and searching for someone. As divine politics fracture and the Sanctum begins to turn, Nimya must survive a realm built to reject her... and a bond that was never meant to form. Because if the Veil falls, what's trapped beneath it won't stay buried. And gods will burn before it stops looking.Complete

Veil of Thorns ( Book 1 )
In a world split between light and shadow, humans live unaware of the Veil-a barrier that separates their world from one ruled by the Fae. For centuries, the Veil has held strong. But when Kaelin Duskthorn, heir to the Shadow Court, crosses it on a rogue mission to reclaim stolen fae magic, he doesn't expect a mere human to stand in his way. Arwen Vale, a half-human, half-fae raised in secret, unknowingly holds the key to a relic that could destroy both courts and collapse the Veil. She's sarcastic, guarded, and lives by rules she's made to survive the human world. Kaelin is cruel, calculating, and bound by a prophecy that claims his downfall will come from "a girl with blood between stars." Their paths cross violently-literally. Kaelin tries to kill her; she stabs him with a knife enchanted by his enemies. But their connection only deepens as fate, betrayal, and hidden desires begin to unravel the truth: they are bound by a forbidden soul-thread. As tensions rise between the Light and Shadow Courts, Arwen and Kaelin must navigate a war they didn't start, secrets they weren't meant to know, and an attraction that could ruin them both. Enemies by blood. Lovers by curse. And only one can survive the breaking of the Veil.Complete

When a reluctant prince discovers a hidden truth buried in the ruins of a cursed village, he abandons the crown to seek a girl lost to history. A girl whose birth was erased. A girl whose touch may awaken something far more dangerous than any kingdom dares to remember. But the sigils are more than bloodlines. They are keys. And some doors should never be opened. As the wind stirs in the east and masked enemies rise in silence, the fire returns-not with prophecy, but with choice. Thirteen are marked. Only one decides.Complete

In a world where magic burns like desire, Serah enters the forbidden ruins of Velmora Castle to save her sister's life - but awakens Kael, the shadow prince bound to her by blood and fire. One kiss ignites an ancient bond, one touch awakens power she never knew she had... Serah closed her eyes, letting the wind sweep across her face.

He was gone, vanished into the fractures of the Shadow Realm, leaving only the echo of his presence and a mark that now burned on her wrist.
