Isolde Becoming

On the night she turns sixteen, Anya Teakwood-an Omega who can quiet storms by breathing softer-feels the Moon look back. In one breath her skin remembers winter, her eyes bloom emerald, and the goddess Isolde rises inside her like tide.

New Vassaria is a modern kingdom where crowns are worn in boardrooms and wars are waged with ledgers. Six years ago, an "accident" remade the line of succession. Since then, Regent Mara Vass has ruled with immaculate control; Silas Grimm, Alpha of the Nightward, hunts power in shadow; and heir Kade Vass has been forged into a weapon polite enough to pass in daylight. The night Kade follows a storm to Anya's porch, the mate bond strikes like soldered lightning-and the old vow that keeps the city in balance wakes hungry.

With a beta bodyguard who is steadier than myth (Rowan) and a witch‑archivist who turns memory into law (Priya), Anya steps into an under‑library that sings and a marketplace that can be made to pray. To expose a murder dressed as gravity and to restore a broken covenant, she must turn shareholder meetings into liturgy, teach cameras to witness, and choose between spectacle that burns and repair that lasts. Kade must choose love over dynasty's cruelty; Mara must choose counsel over control; and the city must learn to keep receipts out loud.

Part supernatural romance, part corporate war, Isolde Becoming is a story of softness as discipline and power as stewardship-not possession. If you like fated‑mates chemistry with consent, goddesses in skyscrapers, and revolutions that start with a clerk's stamp, step into New Vassaria.
