Twelve years ago, he vanished without a word. Now he's back-with a message that unravels everything she tried to forget.

Jacinth thought she'd made peace with the past. A radio jock with a steady life in Baguio, she's learned to carry her scars in silence-especially the one left by Ken, the boy who once waited for her at every twilight, then disappeared without goodbye.

But when a mysterious listener left a comment - "You sang Stay... and I didn't"- her carefully quiet world begins to crack. Because it's not just a random comment. It's a memory. And she knows exactly who it came from.

As old emotions resurface and unanswered questions claw their way back, Jacinth is forced to confront the kind of love that never really ends - only fades into something like goodbye.

Sebastian has always lived by the rules. As an official in the Central Zone of the City of Eternity, he processes vampires and werewolves who break the law, sending them to their deaths with reluctant efficiency. It's a job he despises but one that keeps order in the city. However, when food supplies fail to reach the supernatural zones, chaos begins to creep toward Central, threatening the fragile peace. Human leaders Aubrey and Alaric suspect revolutionists are to blame for the shortages and send Sebastian to investigate. Forced to leave the safety of Central, Sebastian is thrust into a deadly world he barely understands. Infiltrating the revolutionaries, he's given a chilling task: assassinate a powerful vampire in the Ruby District of the Eastern Zone. With the city on the verge of collapse, he must choose between his loyalty to his human leaders and the growing chaos threatening to consume everyone. Yet, his mission is complicated by a personal struggle-Sebastian's own family, his mother and brother, were turned into vampires during the first revolution that destroyed Barewood. His desire to protect them conflicts with his duty to uphold Central's rules. As tensions rise and the revolution deepens, Sebastian must navigate a path through treachery and violence, all while keeping his loved ones safe. In Blood & Honour, the fourth book in the City of Eternity series, Sebastian faces impossible choices as the city teeters on the brink of another uprising. Bound by his obligations to Central yet torn by his family's supernatural ties, he must decide whether to uphold the law or defy it-and whether duty is worth the price of blood.

Being raised in the sheltered Northern Zone of the City of Eternity, twins Alexander and Valentyna dream of escaping the confines of their carefully controlled lives. Their father, ever protective, forbids them from venturing far, only allowing them brief, supervised visits to other zones. But the quiet streets and familiar shops of their neighbourhood feel suffocating, and the twins long to explore more of the city's forbidden places. When they stumble upon their father's hidden stash of neutraliser-a rare substance that masks the scent of human blood-they seize their chance. With the neutraliser in hand, Alexander and Valentyna decide to sneak into the Eastern Zone, the vampire-ruled district, to visit their old family home, now sealed off and lost to the supernatural lands. But the neutraliser doesn't work as well as they expected, and soon their scent draws the attention of deadly predators. Chased through the Ruby District by creatures hungry for their blood, the twins are forced to confront the dangers of a world they barely understand. As they fight to survive, they uncover dark secrets about their family's past and the true power dynamics of the city. Their bond is tested as they navigate treacherous alliances and the volatile underworld of the vampires, where the line between friend and foe is razor-thin. In Blood & Bond, the finale of the City of Eternity series, Alexander and Valentyna must rely on their love for each other to make it out alive. But in a city where revolution is brewing and ancient prophecies unfold, survival comes at a cost. Blood binds-and blood betrays-and the twins will discover just how far they're willing to go to protect each other.

His lips meet mine in a slow kiss which quickly turns into something passionate, neither of us willing to back down. I take his anger that he drowns into this kiss and show him my love in return. * Jeea Mehta has always lived in the shadow of her perfect older sister.
