    Another boring party-until she ruined it. Alina Malik. My boss's sister. A disaster in designer. She stumbled toward me-barefoot, heels swinging from her fingers, eyes red-rimmed and wild. Makeup smudged. Hair a mess. Dress slipping off her shoulder like she was begging to be seen. "Oh, abs," she giggled, clinging to my arm like she had any right. I didn't move. Didn't return the smile. Just stared. "Why have you been ignoring me, jerk?" she slurred. My jaw tightened. "You know why." "No, I don't!" she snapped, voice cracking. "I told you I liked you-and you blocked me! Who does that?!" "Someone who never wanted to hear it," I said flatly. "Now let go." She ripped her hand away, eyes blazing. "Why don't you like me?!" I didn't blink. Didn't flinch. Looked her dead in the eye. "Because there was never anything to like." She froze. "You're loud. Immature. Clingy. You create chaos and call it love. You throw tantrums like a child who's never been told no." Her mouth parted, stunned. I stepped closer, voice like ice. "You weren't special, Alina. You were tolerated. Only because you're my boss's sister. If it weren't for him, I would've shut you down the second you opened your mouth." Her eyes filled with tears. "Every message. Every fake smile. Every pathetic attempt to get close-I let it slide because I didn't want to lose my job. Not because I cared." Her lower lip trembled. "You don't mean that..." "I never liked you. Not for a second. You were a walking headache. A spoiled brat playing pretend in heels." She looked like she couldn't breathe. "You built a fantasy out of my silence and called it love. That's not my fault-that's your delusion." She blinked, searching for anything kind in my face. I gave her nothing. "You were nothing to me, Alina. Not then. Not now. Not ever." A tear rolled down her cheek. "So save yourself the embarrassment. Stop chasing shadows. And leave me the hell alone."

    I drowned, woke up in another world, got killed again by an arch-necromancer, and resurrected as half-zombie. I'm technically alive only because I'm magically bound to him. Now I'm stuck in a dark academy where bullying can be fatal, skeletons aren't in closets, but on payroll, students keep disappearing, and survival is very much optional. On the bright side, I've discovered a unique talent: the undead tend to fall in love with me. On the less bright side, an ancient lich wants to drag me into his world. Honestly, dying twice was the easy part. What to expect: - Humorous dark fantasy in an academy setting - Dark academia with Wednesday-like vibes - The heroine gradually discovers her hidden abilities - Slow-burn, subtle romance - complicated, awkward, and very intentional - A fake engagement / marriage of convenience (bad decisions made for good reasons) - Morally grey characters - Friendship, betrayal, jealousy, mystery and secrets

    Maya Miyamoto only wanted to survive college, family expectations, and the quiet voices that followed her wherever she went. As a half-Filipina, half-Japanese student in the Netherlands, Maya has always known she was different. She sees spirits. She feels emotions that are not her own. And ever since the eclipse, something dark has been whispering inside her mind-telling her she is weak, unwanted, and never enough. Then one strange encounter on a train leads her to the House of El-a hidden student residence in Leiden where angels, demigods, witches, warriors, and broken souls live under one roof. Behind its doors are magical bracelets, secret classes, portals across Europe, and students trained to fight demons in the name of God. But when Maya tries to help the spirit of a murdered man, she breaks a forbidden law and becomes trapped in the politics of the House. Worse, the demons hunting her seem connected to an ancient mystery-one that leads toward Elysium, the legendary paradise hidden within the Underworld. With a heartbroken warrior named Mike, a war-traumatized boy named Karim, the fierce daughter of Hades, Colleen, and a chaotic group of unlikely friends, Maya is forced onto a dangerous road across Europe. Their journey will lead them through haunted museums, secret councils, missing children, ancient gods, demon princes, and the gates of the dead. But the greatest battle may not be against the darkness outside. It may be the darkness within. Because everyone carries light. But not everyone notices when it begins to fade.

In an instinctive gesture, Lux reached out and took the girl's hand." Fleeing the smoldering ashes of her home and the echo of past mistakes, Jinx collapses in hostile territory. Wounded and consumed by loneliness, her fate seems sealed within the frigid and unforgiving streets of Demacia. Luxanna Crownguard, for her part, knows what it means to bleed in silence.

In a nation that punishes her kind with death, Lux is smothering under the weight of her heritage. A clandestine encounter alters their destinies. By snatching Jinx from the clutches of death and sheltering her in her sanctuary, Lux finds the courage she always lacked, while Jinx discovers a human warmth she thought extinct.
