Seduced by the Two Shadowed Nephilim
Alexia’s life has never been easy.
Raised in an orphanage after her mother — tormented by emotional disorders — took her own life without ever revealing who her father was, Alexia grew up knowing only instability and loss. Now, all she wants is a sense of safety she’s never had.
But what should’ve been just a night of fun at Nox Trium, the most exclusive club in town, turns into a descent into the forbidden when she’s shot and crosses paths with two men as enigmatic as they are irresistible. Caelith, with his magnetic presence, and Samiel, dangerously charming and impossible to ignore, are not human. They are the cursed sons of fallen angels and mortal women — doomed to wander the earth, dependent on a rare kind of blood that only a few, like Alexia, can provide.
Between glances that burn hotter than they should and a tension that threatens to consume her reason, Alexia finds herself torn between an inevitable attraction to Cael and the dangerous chemistry she shares with Samiel — one that stirs both fury and desire in equal measure. But Nox Trium hides secrets far darker than flashing lights and late-night excesses. Secrets that tie her to enemies capable of ending her life — and to a buried past now clawing its way to the surface.
After being targeted by Azrion, another one of their kind, Alexia needs Cael and Samiel’s protection. She must decide whether to run… or surrender to the lethal fascination of the one who provokes her most.
In the end, only two questions remain:
How far is Alexia willing to go to uncover the truth about her origins?
And how far will they go to keep her bound to their clan?

Chapter: 10 - CAELITH - GO TO HELL!Seven chairs. Too wide, too tall.Seven thrones of dark, carved wood, set in a half-circle. A harsh white light beams down from above, flooding the center, leaving the rest of the chamber in shadow. Too theatrical. That’s how they like their stage.And on the thrones — the same as always. The Council. White forms, faceless, their heads nothing but blinding light. No features, just a brilliance that sears your eyes if you stare too long. Their voices echo from nowhere, as if carried through space itself.They think themselves gods. But they’re only angels.Gabriel presides. At his side, the others: Uriel, Raphael, Michael…Angels — the damned landlords of the universe. Humans have it wrong. These bastards never show mercy. They’re nothing but celestial bureaucrats.— Caelith’s vicarius was attacked in his own territory — Azrion starts. — Sentinels. I want authorization to strike back at that church.The six murmur among themselves, their words sealed from my ears.— Denied. — Gabriel a

Chapter: 9 - LEXI - YOU MADE ME HUNGRYI open my eyes. The ceiling is high, white, bare, and the light slipping through the heavy curtains is faint. It takes me a second to process that I’m not in my apartment. I’m in Cael’s room.The bed is massive, soft, dressed in stark white sheets. Two oversized nightstands, a stone floor softened by pale rugs, and a closet big enough to swallow my entire place. This bedroom alone is larger than my whole apartment.I’m alone. I don’t know where he slept — or if he did.But the emptiness of the space, its cold decoration, drags me back to last night. To my new, unwanted reality: threatened by some kind of… gangster, and hiding with the two most enigmatic men I’ve ever met. Men who unsettle me… men who draw me in. Especially one of them — the worst of the two.I step out and explore the apartment: an enormous open-plan space, almost like a studio, with floor-to-ceiling windows framing a breathtaking view of the city. Dark leather sofas, glass-and-metal coffee tables. At the center of it

Chapter: 8 - CAELITH - THE RULES OF THE GAMEHer scent hits before she does. Sweet and clean, cutting through the stench of liquor and sweat in the game room. I try to lock onto the eight ball, lining up my shot, but the presence of this human drags across my skin.— I need one of you to show me the invoices…Her voice is background noise I force myself to ignore. Samiel answers for both of us, like he always does. Then he calls her back.— Come relax for a bit, Lexi.My eyes narrow on him. Samiel never misses a chance to shove her toward me. He’s serving her up on a silver platter, and it grates the hell out of me. Only the clan master can claim a victus, and he knows I don’t want her. Still, he pushes, as if without her the clan might crumble.She steps closer, and her scent slams harder with every inch she closes. It’s tangled with Samiel’s — a faint trace left from the day she took that bullet — but not enough. Not a real mark. Especially because mine isn’t there.— I haven’t heard your voice yet — she says, looking right at

Chapter: 7 - LEXI - WHAT THE HELL HAVE I DONE WITH MY LIFE?— He’s one of them, isn’t he? The mobsters who tried to kill you — and shot me? — I ask Sami, standing across from me in the office.— No — he says calmly.— No? That’s all you’ve got for me?— I’ll get you a drink. You need one.I watch him leave. I’m shaking, my hands so cold I can’t even feel my fingertips. I was just threatened by a gangster.When the door opens again, both men step in. Sami hands me a glass of wine.I toss it back in one swallow, their eyes heavy on me.— Like it? — Sami asks, watching the glass.— It’s the worst wine I’ve ever had. Tastes like iron. If that’s what you serve here… you won’t last long in this city.Neither of them answers. Their silence is answer enough.— I don’t want to work here anymore — I go on. — Tomorrow I’m going to the police and filing a…— It won’t matter. — Cael cuts me off, his voice low, sharp, dominating the air. — This is above the police.— Why did that man talk about clans? — My head pounds with questions. — What’s a vicarius?—

Chapter: 6 - LEXI - "DON´T PLAY WITH YOUR FOOD"I get to Nox late in the afternoon. Samiel asked me to work the night shift — the hours they keep — and even though it doesn’t make much sense, I agreed. For ten times my old salary, I’d work upside down if they asked me to.The spreadsheets that now live in the system are so precise, so polished, that all I can do is comb through them line by line. Just yesterday, they told me all the accounting was done by hand. Now it’s all here, perfectly entered into their software. Perfect. Too perfect.Strange, like everything else around here.It’s already night when I step into the game room. Tonight it’s fuller than usual — maybe a few handpicked clients invited upstairs. Sami and Cael are locked in a game of pool, the sofas packed, bodies swaying with glasses in hand.— I need one of you to show me the invoices for drinks… and everything else… so I can log it all into the system.Neither of them looks at me, their attention fixed on the table.— Eryon can help you with that. — Sami says.I

Chapter: 5 - LEXI - WHO ARE YOU PEOPLE?In daylight, Nox Trium looks nothing like itself.The solid black front of the building isn’t imposing at all, and the dead blue neon sign barely even catches the eye of anyone walking by. Just another three-story building in the urban jungle.It’s late in the day. The sky outside is pink and orange, but no one seems to care — inside, the lights are on, windows and doors sealed tight.The bouncer leads me to the office, and a shiver runs through me when I remember how recently I’d been there, passed out on that sofa — tended to for a gunshot I’m not even sure I really took, by a man with the voice of an angel and the kind of sinful beauty that tastes like strawberries and trouble.When the door opens again, it’s Samiel who steps in. A smile stretched ear to ear.— You actually came. — That dreamlike voice fills my ears.— You said I had to, if I wanted answers.I still need to know if I really was shot or… if I just need a psychiatrist. Because how could I have healed so fast?— I thi
