Zolani never thought her quiet college days would unravel into legend. With her curious cat always at her heels and a life filled with laughter and promise, the world seemed ordinary enough...until the night the veil lifted.
A single choice pulled her into a realm where shadows whispered, and the familiar twisted into the strange. Old powers stirred in the dark, watching her every step. What she once knew as chance now felt like fate, and the secrets bound to her name grew heavier by the hour.
Armed with little more than courage and the loyalty of her strange companion, Zolani must walk a path where allies may be illusions and every answer unlocks a deeper mystery. One thing is certain: her story is no longer her own...it belongs to the world that has been waiting for her all along.

Shadowbound
Book One of the Shadowbound Trilogy by Elias Gray Some destinies aren't written in light. They're carved in shadow. Bel never asked to be special. Haunted by mirror dreams and hunted by celestial forces, he's spent his life trying to disappear, to stay quiet, stay safe, and stay far away from the fire burning beneath his skin. But fate has other plans. When a tragic accident forces him to flee with his best friend Jace and the fiercely brilliant Erica, Bel is thrust into a world of ancient rites, forbidden magic, and secrets buried deep within his own bloodline. He doesn't know why the Council wants him, only that their eyes burn with fear... and that his very existence could tip the balance between worlds. As the trio races across cursed forests, crumbling villages, and shattered memories, Bel must confront a truth he was never ready to face: He was never just running from something. He was being called to something greater. Something darker. In a world where shadows hold the truth and light can lie, Bel must decide what kind of monster he's willing to become, to save the people he loves. Shadowbound is a journey of identity, survival, and self-acceptance, the first step into a trilogy where destiny wears a broken face... and hope is found in the dark.Complete
