Half-ghost Aether's visit to the mortal world with her twin brother, Hemmett, has opened up more questions than it answered. How will they turn out, as half-ghosts? Who is their father Emmett, really? Aether and Hemmett are afraid to ask their father about his true identity. Meanwhile, Aether longs to spend time with Reid, the haunting ghost at the local bookstore. Hemmett, too, has met some mortal girls he likes--especially Serafina. Their parents allow them to roam the mortal world--but with a curfew. With Bellum out of the way and Blade in the spirit world, things should be perfectly safe. Until a little innocent research spirals out of control, and Aether winds up unlocking far more answers--and more danger--than she bargained for.

The Hollow Pact
When Ren Holloway, a fiercely independent and slightly chaotic high school junior, stumbles across a hidden ritual in the woods outside her sleepy town, she accidentally becomes bonded to a forgotten creature of the Veil - an ancient plane between life and death. Now cursed (or blessed?) with abilities no one should have - like glimpsing past traumas through touch, sensing when something isn't alive, and sometimes... speaking with things that shouldn't speak - Ren is caught in a centuries-old battle between supernatural forces that have been feeding off her town for generations. The pact is unstable. The creature wants freedom. And something else wants her dead before she figures out why the Veil is thinning - and who caused it. 🧍♀️ Main Character: Ren Holloway Personality: Hyper-observant, sarcastic under pressure, uses humor to deflect. Doesn't trust easily. Background: Lost her brother under mysterious circumstances years ago; she's been "the weird girl" ever since. No one believes her when she says the forest is wrong. Skills: Not magical, but freakishly good at puzzles, rituals, languages, and uncovering secrets. Flaws: Impulsive, emotionally repressed, tends to push people away to avoid being hurt. 🐚 The Entity: "The Hollow One" Ren calls it "Echo" (sarcastically at first, but it sticks). A shapeless, ancient being bound to her soul - once a guardian, now corrupted. Speaks in whispers only she can hear. Doesn't understand humanity but is curious about Ren. Not necessarily evil, but extremely morally gray. Feeds on fear and memory. Slowly begins to regain pieces of its identity through Ren's actions.Complete
