    To the students of Hogwarts, Moon Silverleigh is the portrait of noble perfection. A daughter of one of the Wizarding World's most storied lineages, she is the helpful hand in the common room, the brilliant mind who clarifies a complex charm for a classmate, and the compassionate face of Ravenclaw. She wears her kindness like a royal decree, hiding the fractured weight of her heritage behind a mask of academic grace. But then there is Tom Riddle. He is the shadow in the library, a mystery behind a prefect's badge, and the only person who sees her hunger for greatness beneath her friendly facade. While others are charmed by her status or kindness, Tom is fascinated by her secrets and knowledge. In the quiet corners of the castle, they strike a pact. They are partners, seekers of the truth, two brilliant minds united by a desire to fix the world. As they delve into the forbidden intersection of Ancient Magic and the Dark Arts, Moon believes she has finally found a kindred soul.

    The morgue is a place of silence, protocol, and the cold reality of death-the perfect sanctuary for Ash. As a forensic assistant with a penchant for heavy metal and a "wake-and-bake" morning routine, Ash finds comfort in the clinical detachment of the autopsy suite. She's used to the coppery tang of old blood and the hiss of negative pressure vents. But when Jane Doe 7 arrives on her table-a victim of manual strangulation-the silence of the morgue begins to feel like a threat. What starts as a morbid curiosity turns into a living nightmare when Ash realizes she isn't alone among the dead. A shadow is watching from the corners of the lab, a predator who knows her name, her habits, and the intimate details of her life outside the hospital walls. From chilling phone calls whispered in German to "gifts" left in her locked apartment and car-an antique silver thimble and surveillance photos of her most vulnerable moments-the "Narr" (the Fool) is playing a calculated game. He isn't just a killer; he's an insider with admin-level access, turning Ash's workplace into his own personal observation deck. As the line between the hunter and the hunted blurs, Ash must use her forensic training to process the living instead of the dead. With her two best friends, Leo and Chloe, caught in the crosshairs, Ash digs into the "Unlisted Inventory"-a trail of forgotten women that the system has discarded, but the Narr has claimed. In a world of woven filigree and formaldehyde, Ash must find the man behind the mask before she becomes the final item in his macabre inventory. Because in this game, the Narr is writing the script-and he's decided that Ash is the leading lady.

    A novel about power, desire, and the price of belonging. When Elvira Moltke transfers to Ravnsvang- a secluded elite boarding school tucked away in Denmark North Zealand - she isn't chasing popularity or drama. She's there because she's smart, focused, and ready to leave her old life behind. But Ravnsvang has a heartbeat of its own - cold, glittering, and quietly cruel. Drawn into the magnetic orbit of four notorious girls - Sofia and Olivia Winter, Viola Heiberg, and her enigmatic roommate, Lea Bauditz - Elvira quickly learns that beauty and cruelty go hand in hand. Uniforms are tailored, secrets are currency, and nothing is ever as it seems. Then a girl goes missing. And later, another one is found dead. Rumors swirl, loyalties shift, and as the school's marble floors hide darker truths, Elvira finds herself pulled deeper into a world of manipulation, obsession, and high-stakes reputation games. And somewhere between whispered secrets and stolen glances, love begins to bloom - but not the kind that saves you. The kind that ruins you. The closer she gets to the truth, the more she questions who she's becoming - and whether she's still the good girl she once was... or just a rebel in disguise.

    After years apart, Lucas -the rebellious rock-hearted wanderer who always lived on the edge- crossed paths with Raven once again. Since the Titans had gone their separate ways, life had changed for both of them. Lucas didn't return out of nostalgia; he came back to meet his son, a boy who had inherited his wild curiosity and free spirit. Raven, nervous but secretly excited, wasn't ready for what seeing him again would stir inside her. That excitement quickly turned into frustration. Memories hit her like a punch: the boundaries Lucas crossed, the promises he broke, and how he left before their child was even born. The resentment she had buried never truly faded. Living close again brought out the best and worst in them. Their chemistry was undeniable... but so were the unresolved wounds. Raven couldn't stand how Lucas acted like the past had simply vanished, while he struggled to prove he had changed - even when he didn't fully know how. One night, after laughter slipped into silence, Raven finally confronted him: "You can't just show up and pretend nothing happened." From that moment on, their relationship became a push-and-pull of desire, anger, and emotional conflict. Both wanted to protect their son, but it wasn't easy to coexist between arguments, buried feelings, and old scars that still hurt. Even so, they chose to try - to build a home where Lucas's music and Raven's magic could live together, where love could be honest, imperfect, and real. This marks the beginning of a new chapter: a story of second chances, open wounds, growth... and a chaos that refuses to slow down.

    Lilith's Augury by Elle Harlyn is a dark, gothic urban fantasy set in the haunting streets of New Orleans. After escaping an abusive past, Lilith Moreau seeks sanctuary and a fresh start, only to find herself caught between trauma, friendship, and the supernatural. As she rebuilds her life with her fiercely loyal friend Melanie, Lilith becomes entangled in the secret world of vampires-where consent, consequence, and agency are everything. When a violent encounter brings her face-to-face with Orpheus Vasseur, a vampire bound by strict laws and haunted by his own history, Lilith must navigate a city where blood is currency, love is forbidden, and danger lurks in every shadow. The New Orleans Vampire Council enforces rules that keep humans safe, but Lilith's unique blood marks her as augury-a signal of volatility that attracts predators and disrupts restraint. With themes of survival, trauma, and the cost of attachment, Lilith's Augury explores the boundaries between victim and survivor, human and monster, and the power of choice in a world where love threatens order. Will Lilith find freedom, or will the darkness claim her?

    "The Wolf hunts. The Wolf feeds on its prey. But this... This is different." In the isolated town of Ashford, something old is awake-and it has teeth. A symbol, drawn in blood, violent visions, and an uncanny, terrifying supernatural entity. Something hunts. Something kills. And it's coming for them... whether they're ready or not. *** When Carlos Hernandez survives a brutal encounter in the woods, his life fractures overnight. Haunted by violent visions that feel more like memories than dreams, Carl begins to suspect that the monster stalking Ashford is tied to him in ways he doesn't yet understand. His body changes. His senses sharpen. And the line between hunter and hunted starts to blur. Ashley knows more than she lets on. Raised in the shadow of the forest, she carries her own curse-and her own rules for survival. Training Carl means risking exposure, but leaving him ignorant could be fatal. Somewhere beyond the town limits lives Jude, a reclusive werewolf with a forbidden ability and a connection to Ashley that could unravel everything if revealed. As the Black Wolf's attacks grow bolder, Carl is forced to confront a terrifying possibility: the monster terrorizing Ashford may not be his enemy, but his mirror. To stop it, he must uncover the town's buried history, accept what he is becoming, and decide how much of his humanity he is willing to lose. A dark, atmospheric coming-of-age horror, The Mark blends small-town dread with supernatural mythology, exploring guilt, inheritance, and the violence we carry-whether we choose it or not.
