family

Four girls. Four destinies. Born far apart, each carries the Mark of an Element, a mysterious power they don’t yet understand. Orphaned and unaware of their true heritage, they are drawn to the City of Crown, where an ancient academy awaits. Together, they must uncover their abilities, face dark forces that threaten the realms, and fulfill a prophecy that could save—or destroy—the world. But trust is fragile, secrets run deep, and danger lurks in every shadow. Their journey has only just begun…

Their son is turning into an Dragoon age

She never wanted a family. He never expected to find one with her. Sanaa grew up in an orphanage and spent her life refusing to belong to anyone. Fiercely independent, sharp-tongued and unapologetically free, she built her own life on her own terms, between engines, grease-stained hands, trying to forget the kind of past that never truly lets you go. Until the day everything changes. In a single moment, she finds herself with a baby in her arms and a responsibility she never asked for. Massimo Salvatore is fighting to protect the power and prestige of a mafia family that cannot afford to fall. Beneath his charming smile and careless humor hides a ruthless predator willing to do whatever it takes to defend what belongs to him. But his plans shatter when he learns he has a son. An heir who could change everything. An heir protected by a mechanic-smuggler who has no intention of backing down. And Sanaa has far more tricks up her sleeve than anyone expects

Let’s be frank: my stepmother is human trash. She has always been, and she’ll always be. That’s just how life is. But I’ve got to admit that she’s outdoing herself today. ‘Cause, darn, she’s just told me, first thing in the goddamn morning, that I’m to be wed in a few hours’ time for the prosperity of the clan. That has the merit to be crystal clear, at least. Alright, sure. Fine. I can live with an arranged marriage. It’s not the worst thing she’s done. What’s not fine, though, is my spouse’s gender, age, and species. I want to make three points clear: 1. I’m not into men. 2. I’m not into older people. 3. I’m not into other species. Guess what? It appears my future partner is everything listed above. Male, old enough to be my ancestor, and a demon! ...Is it too late to run away? Asking for a friend. ______________________________ Doesn’t-give-a-fuck-anymore human x pampering older demon [BL] ______________________________ Free of copyright picture used for the bookcover by Leonhard_Niederwimmer

Adah tries to live guided by faith-but self-doubt lingers, especially when it comes to love.

As they journey across the veil between worlds, battling corrupted spirits and healing the dying, the two men uncover secrets buried in the ruins of their pasts and build a deeper friendship than either of them expects. When Khem’s true plan begins to unfold, Xal and Kian must choose between justice, vengeance, and sacrifice.

Nadia Voss has spent a decade being the backbone of the Ironstone Pack. She built its defenses, funded its watchtowers, trained its warriors, and raised its heir. She was also, slowly and without anyone noticing, given less and less in return. When the Ashveil Curse claims her, the pack's healer names a cure: the Silver Moon Rite, performed within forty-eight hours. Her Alpha mate, Cassian, gives it instead to Lyra- the adopted sister Nadia herself brought home at seventeen, who has spent the years since taking everything Nadia owned, one piece at a time. Nadia does not scream. She does not fight. She signs every document they put in front of her with a steady hand and a composed face. But in the three days before her death, she moves with the precision of someone who has been planning longer than anyone realized- locking assets behind bloodline seals, registering evidence with neutral-territory law, writing a letter that will be released only when the people who wronged her have begun to relax. She dies alone on the third day. Then the trap begins to close. And fourteen months later, in a neutral-zone legal office, a woman places a document on a desk and begins the process of returning to the life she was owed. Blood and Silver is a story about what strength actually looks like when no one is watching- and what the patient and the precise can build, even at the end.

She was the substitute. He was the price. Elena Vance has never been anyone's first choice. When her golden sister flees days before her wedding to billionaire Damon Cross, Elena is handed over like payment for a family debt. No one asks if she wants to go. No one cares. Damon Cross built an empire from nothing. Cold. Calculated. Incapable of vulnerability. A wife is a transaction. He doesn't care which sister stands at the altar. Elena arrives at Cross Estate—a marble mansion built to impress but never to warm. She signs a contract with clear rules: wear the ring, attend events, ask for nothing. The marriage ends in one year. But that night, she finds a photograph. A woman she doesn't recognize. A baby wrapped in white cloth. On the back, in faded handwriting: Elena and Mama. Before the fire. She has no memory of any fire. No memory of any mother but Eleanor Vance—the woman who raised her as nothing. As Elena digs into the past, she uncovers letters from her missing sister and a truth that shatters everything. She was never a Vance. She was stolen from the Cross family the night a fire changed everything. Her real mother is alive. Her sister ran to protect her. And the man she married has been searching for her since he was fourteen. But the truth comes with a price. Eleanor Vance started one fire. She won't hesitate to start another. As flames consume the mansion, Elena must confront the woman who raised her, the mother who lost her, and the man who married her. She must decide who she is—not who she was made to be. And when the final truth is unearthed from the ashes, Elena discovers that the one thing Eleanor couldn't burn might be the only thing that sets her free. She was the spare. Until she became the only thing he couldn't afford to lose.
