Manolya Kara’s world is defined by what is missing. Her mother is gone, her father is an unreadable stranger wrapped in dangerous secrets, and now, the woman who raised her is losing her only sister to an unnatural disappearance. As the small Turkish coastal town of Akyaka descends into panic over a legendary creature that judges the guilty, Manolya is forced into a war she didn't know existed when she opens an antique box she was never meant to touch. The result? Guided by a snarky demon from the fall of Constantinople bound in the form of a cat, Manolya uncovers the Hellblades: rubied scimitars that bleed red light and force monsters into the open. Swept into the deadly obsidian dimension, can Manolya and her cousins master the art of war alongside a creature of hell—or will they become the next victims sacrificed to the darkness?

But they are not the only ones looking; close behind them are the Saffron Veil and the mercenary who pulled the trigger on Valentina’s past. From the ruins of Mesopotamia to the Andes of Peru, the line between revenge and desire blurs. As enemy forces close in, will Valentina outplay the billionaire who bought her, or will her fierce yearning for vengeance consume them both?

Bitten by both a wolf and a vampire in one chaotic night, Beatrice becomes a cursed hybrid. Her blood holds the ability to break centuries of infertility and war… but it also makes her the ultimate target of Velan, a ruthless vampire lord who believes her rare blood can resurrect his lost love and reclaim his Prussian legacy. He suspects she is the last living link to the legendary Bloodstone, an artifact powerful enough to reshape the supernatural world. Hunted through a city on the brink of war, Beatrice is drawn between a fierce werewolf Alpha and an enigmatic cursed Prince. Alpha Brandon wants to claim her. Vampire prince Velan wants to use her. And Angelica? Her “friend” may be playing the deadliest game of all. Loyalties shatter. Obsession burns. And in the shadows of Charlottenburg Palace and the glittering clubs of Berlin, one question remains: Will Beatrice’s hybrid curse save the city… or destroy everyone she loves?
