Bound by Shadow

Book Two of the Arsavox Chronicles
By J.A. Haynes & L. Watson

The Dark Forest has teeth.
But this time, the greatest danger does not lurk in its shadows.

Aconite has never feared the beast inside her - the panther's claws, the wild hunger, the reckless strength that kept her alive. But now, with new life stirring inside her, shifting is no longer survival. It is a death sentence.

Azazel, the fallen king, has faced armies, betrayals, and centuries of solitude. None of it terrifies him as much as losing her. Bound by shadow and ruin, he will do anything to keep her safe - even if it means caging the only woman who ever defied him.

But the castle is changing. The wards hum like a second heartbeat, mirrors whisper futures best left unseen, and the line between predator and protector blurs. Together, they must learn to fight the wildness inside them - or be torn apart by it.All Rights Reserved

Bound by Devotion by StephanieYarns

Eve's been through a lot, but prophecy isn't through with her yet. Not yet ready for what it asks of her, it drives a wedge between her and the love her heart claims. With no time to recover, Shadow makes its move and her and her men must fight their way through a dying realm to free the only one strong enough to save all of faerie. Balance needs to be restored, and the cost of that balance might be their own lives. ***Warning!!! This is a reverse-harem novel! There WILL be sexy time! Some of it kind of pushing to bounds in this one. Not too much, but I will put warning on the couple of chapters that contain "Not normal" sex. WARNING***

Blood by Rose22

Blood binds. Blood betrays. Blood remembers. She's living an ordinary life - lectures, late shifts, and trying to keep her head above water - until the night everything changes. A stranger in the glass. Whispers she can't explain. Dreams dripping in crimson. Drawn into a shadowed world where nothing is as it seems, she's pulled from routine into a maze of haunted whispers, forbidden attraction, and ancient rituals she doesn't understand. Each step uncovers more of a legacy she never knew she carried - a bloodline tied to power, darkness, and a dangerous bargain she never agreed to. Now, as her hunger grows and her heart tangles with the very creature who may destroy her, she'll face the ultimate question: fight the darkness that claims her... or surrender to the blood calling her home. Happy reading.....🥰🥰🥰

Bloodlust (The New Order 3) by authormiakerr

It was the final reckoning. In a world where shadows hunted us relentlessly, I found refuge in those shadows-I became those shadows. And embracing it, I learned the true extent of my powers and the depths of my courage. The curse that had once marked us for death now seemed like a twisted path to a destiny that only I could claim. My heart found its match with the darkest soul of them all. But could the love born in shadows survive the light of day?

The Edge of Ruin by SweetTastOfBlood

***This is Book 2*** (Book 1: Bound By Blood And Fire) In the aftermath of hard-won peace, tensions between supernatural factions simmer beneath the surface, ready to boil over. The werewolf kingdom stands strong under Locke's rule, but a new enemy lurks in the shadows-one that thrives in secrecy and strikes without warning. Rudy never asked to be tangled in supernatural politics, but as Locke's mate, she's caught in the crossfire when whispers of a hidden war begin to surface. The vampires, starving and desperate, blame the wolves for their suffering, and they aren't content to sit in the dark any longer. Their war isn't waged with brute force, but with deception, sabotage, and blood spilled in the dead of night. As Rudy and Locke navigate an unseen battlefield, love becomes a strongest weapon-and a greatest weakness.

She only knows that shadows follow her steps, and danger lingers where she least expects. At the same time, two strangers cross paths. Drawn together, bound by something beyond this life, they cannot explain why every glance feels like remembering. As darkness stirs again, old bloodlines awaken. And the past is not done with them yet.
