​"I told myself I hated him. But hate is just love with nowhere to go." ​For Lily Thornes, the name Killian Blackwood is a jagged scar on her heart. Since they were children, she has belonged to him in every way that matters, her soul bound to a boy who watched the world burn with cold, hazel eyes. She loved him with a raw, visceral intensity-a love that was never returned, never acknowledged, and eventually, silenced. ​Five years ago, Lily did the only thing she could to survive: she ran. She built a life in the quiet, burying her melancholic poetry and her memories of him under layers of carefully constructed peace. She spent half a decade perfecting the art of avoiding the man who owned her. ​But fate has a cruel sense of irony. ​Killian is back. He isn't just a ghost in the hallways anymore; he's a physical, suffocating presence, and he's staying for a month. A month of shared air. A month of forced proximity. A month where Lily has to watch him from the sidelines, her heart breaking all over again as she sees him with Clara, a woman who seems to have everything Lily ever craved. ​Lily expects the cold shoulder. She expects the silence. ​What she doesn't expect is the shift in the air. The way his gaze follows her every move. The way his silent indifference turns into a dark, terrifying possession. ​As the lines between protection and obsession begin to blur, Lily is forced to face a truth more dangerous than his absence: Killian Blackwood doesn't just want her back. He's decided that she's the only soul he's ever truly wanted-and he's willing to burn the world down to prove it.

Ishaan is no longer just a "seen" receipt-he's right there, magnetic and steady, watching her with a gaze that says everything they never dared to type. Same Spark. New Stakes. Between the chaos of the canteen and the quiet corners of the courtyard, the "mismatched" duo is back. But with the weight of the future and the ghost of every unsaid word between them, will they finally hit 'send' on their feelings? The "unread" era is over. The real story begins now.

Gruesome deaths and mysterious events. Kyle is a self-proclaimed Master of the Arcane Arts and his partner, Dr. Archer has a well-loaded revolver. So what could go wrong?* "Mundus vult decipi, ergo decipiatur. The world wants to be deceived; so let it be deceived!" Credo of the Order of Seekers London 1898. Where the summoning of spirits has become as normal as cricket and tennis, the boundaries between fantasy and reality are blurred.

A very exclusive group of this kind is the Order of the Seekers, which is dedicated to researching, concealing, and disguising the occurrences of the mysterious. Kyle Crowford and Dr. Benjamin Archer are newcomers to the Order, recent graduates of the initiation rite, and eager to embark on their first mission... until they find out that it will take them to the remote backlands in the middle of Dartmoor. In a world beyond the obvious, where magic can bend reality and nightmares can become true, the agents must face the mysteries surrounding the gruesome deaths in Dartmoor - ideally without becoming the next victims themselves. Because, alongside their secrets, there are unexpectedly dark abysses lurking in St. George. *** GERMAN WATTYS 2022 GRAND PRIZE WINNER EDITORS PICK DE APRIL 2023 TOP 23 WATTPAD HISTORICAL AWARDS 18 x FEATURED ON OFFICIAL WATTPAD PROFILES** 🥇1st End of the Year Award 2022 Paranormal Moonly Awards Mystery Bungou Grand Prix Mystery Sweet Waffle Awards Mystery Pink Cloud Award Mystery Pacific Awards - Mystery Blurb WSP&Hibiscus Award Fighting Scene Hibiscus&Auctor Award Antagonist Auctor Award Protagonist Pawesome Award Cover&Best Opening Chapter Lion Awards

The Moon Goddess, Luna, rules the night from a throne no one could reach, and no one could truly see. She has everything a god could possess, power, beauty, luxury, and wisdom-except one thing she was never meant to want: a life of her own. Every step she takes away from divinity pulls her deeper into consequences the gods will not forgive. For once a god learns to feel like a human, even the heavens may no longer be able to bring her back. "Is it wrong... for a being to want something she was never meant to want?" She lowered her gaze toward the world beneath her, where mortals suffered, laughed, and chose-even when it hurt. "I was given everything," "And yet... I envy those who have less, because they have something I do not." Freedom.
