The Hollow Between Flame and Memory

In the myth-drenched city of Virelia, seventeen-year-old Katherine Levi lives a life balanced between popularity and quiet emotional chaos. Born to elite detectives whose work keeps them distant, Kat has learned to rely on her close-knit circle of friends—James, her loyal best friend; Sage, the enigmatic transfer student with a dark magical bond; and Aria, the empathic heart of the group. Everything shifts when Junior Sebastian, a half-demon wolf hybrid from Virelia’s magic academy, accidentally breaks a spiritual seal during a cathedral excursion. The seal held back Vandal, a cursed spirit known for psychological torment and mind control. Unseen and undetected, Vandal possesses the school principal, Mr. Whittingham, and begins orchestrating chaos from the shadows. As strange events ripple through the school—hallucinations, emotional breakdowns, and mythological surges—Kat and her friends begin investigating. Misled by Vandal’s mind-controlled servants, they believe a powerful beast named Jackson is behind the disturbances. Even Principal Whittingham, under Vandal’s control, helps them chase this false lead, deepening the mystery. Romantic tensions rise as Kat falls for Junior, and James realizes his feelings for Sage. Their emotional entanglements mirror the unraveling of their world. Kat discovers she’s a rare hybrid Vessel, capable of bonding with two spirit beasts—an ability that becomes crucial in battling Vandal’s corrupted minions. As the group digs deeper, they uncover a painful truth: Kat’s parents, through past undercover work, unknowingly aided Vandal after his release. The revelation threatens to shatter Kat’s trust, but her friends shield her until evidence emerges that clears her parents’ names—just in time to restore her faith. Guided by Samantha, Sage’s legendary mentor and guardian of the Realm of Distorted Balance, the teens train, bond with their spirit beasts, and prepare for the final confrontation. In the end, Sage learns a rare bandage curse strong enough to seal Vandal permanently. But Vandal is a master manipulator. His identity remains hidden until the final chapters, and his betrayal cuts deep—especially for Kat, who trusted the very man he possessed. The Hollow Between Flame and Memory is a haunting tale of friendship, betrayal, love, and resilience.

Claimed By Three Alphas; One Fated Regret

18+ Warning!!! Listen, this book does not play nice. Expect explicit sexual content, bursts of violence, and enough emotional chaos to make your head spin. The characters? Oh, they'll frustrate you, make reckless choices, and probably leave you yelling at the page. Reader discretion is advised… but let's be real, you're still going to read it just to see what these beautiful messes do next. ★★★ I hooked my fingers under the lace of her white panties, tugging them down until they fell around her ankles. I slid my hand between her thighs and she jolted as my fingers parted her, slipping inside her slick warm coochie. The wetness coated me instantly. The ache in me grew unbearable. I tugged at my belt, dragging down my trousers, freeing myself. My weenie was hard, pulsing, demanding release. I pressed against her, sliding my cock along her wetness. She whimpered, arching back to meet me. 'Yes!' my wolf howled, his voice echoing in my skull. 'Claim her! Mark her with fire!' My palm smacked against her ass, the flesh reddening with the strikes. She shuddered, gasping, her voice breaking with each cry.  ★★★ He left her in the flames… never knowing she carried his child. Elowen Thorne was once a forgotten maid in Morvain Pack, until Alpha Alaric Veylor of Dravenmere Pack made her his mate-- but love turned to ashes when betrayal struck. Accused of a crime she didn't commit and replaced by her envious stepsister, Tazira, Elowen vanished... burned, broken, and pregnant. Five years later, she returns as the long-lost daughter of the noble Velmira Pack Queen, known for their healing ability. Her power was feared, and her heart locked away. Her only focus is to retrieve the Drezova Moon Relic to stop the Vampires and Witches before war consumes them all. But fate is cruel! To find the relic, she must work with three powerful Alphas. One is her ex-husband, Alpha Alaric, who betrayed her… another is Sylion, the mysterious guardian of the relic who once saved her life and wants her now… And the last is Alpha Drazien Veythar, the calculating political leader whose alliance she must secure, even if it costs her freedom. Claimed by the three Alphas, bound by duty, and fated only to the Alpha King-- her greatest battle will be choosing which heart survives the war.
