Blood Debts and Dragon Bones: The Thief Who Stole Death

"I stole from Death. Now I AM Death. And the god I robbed wants me dead—or worse, wants me back." Shattered Realms has the best thieves, and Kaida Thornwick is one of them. For five years, she's been stealing to pay off her younger sister's life debt to the Crimson Cartel. And she has to be. One more big score, and Mira goes free. The job is easy, but it looks impossible: break into the Hollow Citadel, take the Bone Crown from Death's vault, and give it to her unknown client. No one has ever taken something from a god. So Kaida is willing to give it a shot. She does well. She does indeed pull it off. Then Death himself shows up in her hiding place, but he's not what the stories said he would be. Tall, devastatingly beautiful, and totally furious, Azrael the Soul-Keeper offers her a choice: return what she stole, or he'll drag her to the afterlife immediately. She can't return it, though. The Bone Crown has fused with her skull, designating her as Death's Heir—the human picked to take over his divine role when he dies. And there's a problem: Death isn't meant to have an heir. The Crown was sealed away ages ago for a reason. By stealing it, Kaida has sparked an ancient failsafe. Now she and Azrael are bonded—sharing thoughts, feelings, and life force. When she bleeds, he feels it. When he reaps souls, she experiences their final moments. They have thirty days before the bond completes and Kaida becomes the new Death, trapping Azrael in mortal form and sending him to eventual human death. Neither of them wants this. But breaking the bond needs something impossible: stealing three pieces of Azrael's true name from the three most dangerous beings in the Realms—a fallen god, a nightmare queen, and the mystery client who hired Kaida in the first place. As they're forced into an unwilling partnership, pulling off increasingly impossible heists while the divine world hunts them, Kaida learns three terrible truths: The client who hired her is Azrael's old enemy, engineering this to destroy him. Her sister's life-debt is linked to a conspiracy that reaches back to the Divine Sundering itself. And Azrael didn't just lose his crown—he WANTED someone to steal it, because being Death has become a jail he's desperate to escape, even if it means dying to do so. The best thief in the Realms stole immortality. Now she has to steal something even harder—a future where neither of them has to die alone.

The Forbidden Heiress At The All Male Alpha Academy

WARNING: MATURE CONTENT!! Bullied, unwanted and neglected all her life, Theodora thought only one thing could make her regain her honour - Win the blood Tournament and Gain her father's favour as his heir. But things don't go as planned. Instead, her father rewards her victory with a sentence far worse than death: Betrothal to Cain Pendragon, the ruthless Dark Alpha King whose names alone makes the whole realm tremble. Refusing to become a pawn in a monster's game, Theo disappears. Her refuge is Gravemont Academy - an elite all- male training academy where the weak is trampled upon, and heirs are forged into Kings. With the help of her best friend, Eric, whom she is hopelessly in love with, she disguises herself as her cousin and Joins the Academy. The intention was to lay low, but not when she was paired with a Dark-eyed roommate, Hezekiah Pendragon, the son of Cain and Eric's little brother. He reeks of sin and violence, with a lethal promise in his gaze. And of course, Sylas Veylor - her Homeroom professor with piercing blue eyes, with a deadly calm and shadows darker than anyone could decipher. Now, she's stuck between the both of them, trying to hide not just her secret identity but an even darker secret of hers that could shatter bloodlines, ignite war, and without a doubt, change the fate of the werewolf realm! And the Dark Alpha is closer than she thinks. Much closer. Excerpt from the book: Zeke's voice dropped to barely a whisper. "You think your heart belongs to Eric…" His thumb brushed the edge of her pillow, so close to her cheek his knuckles grazed her breath, "…but your heart hasn't met me properly yet," Theo's throat bobbed. "I'm not giving you up, Hellcat. Not tonight. Not tomorrow. Not until you look at me, really look at me, and your heart says my name," Her lips parted, and a shaky breath escaped. Zeke straightened slightly but he didn't step back, "I won't touch you without permission anymore, and I won't force anything," He swallowed hard, his eyes burning with a lethal promise, "But mark my words Hellcat, the day I catch you staring at me the same way you look at Eric, or i sniff a whisper of my name in your mind, I will let loose and god helps anyone who gets in my way," He exhaled softly. "And trust me, Hellcat…" His orange eyes glowed faintly, his wolf shimmering beneath the surface, "…you will," Another Excerpt from the book: Something fluttered in her chest and she slowly looked up at him with trembling eyes. Sylas looked back at her, "I've never wanted anything more. I know I'm older—far older," he said, his voice low and steady, like he was confessing a sin he had no intention of repenting for, "but that changes nothing for me." Theo's heartbeat stuttered again. Sylas took one step and faced her properly, "When I'm with you," he continued, "The chaos stops. The noise stops and the world stops trying to tear itself apart," His eyes stared into hers, open and unflinchingly honest, "You are the first thing in a very long time that doesn't feel like a war," Theo's breath hitched, and his voice deepened with a quiet tremor beneath the calm, "Do you know what that means for a man like me?" Her throat tightened and she shook her head.

The Apothecary and the Cursed Prince

In the crumbling Kingdom of Valon, haunted by the remnants of a shadow realm long forgotten, Eleonora is an apothecary, capable of healing both bodies and souls with her unique gift. Shunned by her village for a crime she never committed, Eleonora lives a quiet life on the outskirts, brewing potions and tending wounds. So when she comes across an injured soldier in the dead of the night—stabbed, poisoned, and left there to die—Eleonora doesn't think much before bringing him back to her little cottage. Her world is upended when the mysterious stranger turns out to be the Crown Prince of Valon, infamous for his cruel and merciless ways. Feared for his brilliance, whispered about his indifference, and followed by rumours darker than the shadows at his back, Callahan Ashbourne is a man who plays people like chess pieces. He's a master strategist at work. A cloaked wielder of dark forces. His cursed powers transcend the living. He's everything she is meant to fear. Eleonora avoids the nobles just as fire avoids water. But when Prince Callahan starts to take an interest in her, she realizes her days are numbered and her life span significantly reduced. He speaks in riddles. He tests her limits. And with every encounter, it becomes harder to tell if he's protecting her—or pulling her into something she won't survive. But Eleonora is not so easily played. And as the lines between captor and confidant begin to blur, she must decide whether the prince’s interest is a calculated threat… or something far more dangerous. Because in a kingdom where magic is forbidden and power is the deadliest currency, one woman who wants nothing to do with the throne might be the only thing standing between a prince and the ruin he was born to bring.
