Blood And Ember: the eternal flames and fangs

In a city ruled by shadows and secrets, monsters walk freely—disguised as humans, bound by ancient laws no one dares to break. Eliana is an orphan with no past and no family, working long nights at a powerful law firm that defends people who never seem entirely human. She believes her strange instincts, her unnatural heat, and the fire that answers her emotions are flaws she must hide. She has no idea they are the legacy of an ancient dragon tribe thought long extinct. Asher is vampire nobility—cold, controlled, and centuries old—born into one of the ruling bloodlines that governs the supernatural world from the shadows. Raised to obey tradition and preserve balance at any cost, he has never questioned the laws that forbid vampires from crossing blood with dragons… until the night he meets Eliana. Their connection is immediate. Dangerous. Impossible. As hidden wars stir beneath the city and long-buried treaties begin to fracture, Eliana becomes the center of a conflict she never knew existed. The law firm she works for is no coincidence. Her past was never lost—it was erased. Loving Asher could ignite a war that would destroy them both. But walking away might be even deadlier. In a world where blood commands power and fire answers only to truth, Blood & Ember is a modern dark fantasy romance about forbidden desire, ancient bloodlines, and the choice between destiny and the one person who makes eternity worth risking.

A BOY MADE OF SHADOWS

He didn’t grow up with a real name. In the place he was raised, they didn’t bother with names at all. They just burned numbers onto kids, and his number was XI. That’s how people talked to him—like, “Number Eleven, do this,” “Number Eleven, stand there.” It wasn’t a life. It was just… existing. He spent most of his childhood underground. Cold stone floors, dim lamps, the same halls every day. He didn’t know anything about the outside world or why the people there were training him. He only knew that the shadows around him always felt strange, like they were watching him. One night, during some ritual he never understood, something unexpected happened. The shadows that were supposed to kill him didn’t. They moved toward him instead—like they recognized him. Like they’d been waiting for him. After that, he walked out of the fortress. No plan. No idea what to do. He picked the name Kael because he needed something normal to call himself. But the world outside isn’t simple. People stare at him. Some are scared of him. And the shadows that cling to him… he still doesn’t know how to control them, or if they’re even safe. Kael isn’t trying to be special or powerful. He just wants to understand who he is and where he belongs. Maybe he’s just a kid who was treated wrong his whole life. Or maybe he’s something else—something the people in that fortress were afraid to admit. Whatever the truth is, he knows one thing: He’s never going back to being a number again.

The case has already claimed blood—and it demands more. What begins as a single murder spirals into a covert war fought in the shadows, drawing in powerful factions with clashing ideologies and hidden agendas: The Order, guardians of forbidden truths; The Mafia, whose influence stretches far beyond crime; the Investigations Department, struggling to uphold justice in a world that no longer obeys its rules; and the enigmatic Cult of the Black Scorpions, whose motives threaten to unravel reality itself. As alliances fracture and secrets surface, Detective Silvers is forced to confront a terrifying truth—this case was never just about justice. It was the opening move in a far greater game, one that will decide the fate of those who live in ignorance… and those who dare to uncover what lies beyond.
