Novels by Ihsan Ali Bashir

Kael Vance arrives at the academy with one goal: survive long enough to uncover the truth behind his family’s mysterious downfall. Cold, calculating, and fiercely independent, Kael trusts no one. In a place where alliances shift like shadows and betrayal lurks behind every smile, he quickly earns a reputation as someone not to be underestimated. But his carefully built walls begin to crack the moment he crosses paths with Lucien Draven. Lucien is everything Kael despises—privileged, powerful, and dangerously perceptive. As the heir to the influential Draven bloodline, Lucien moves through the academy with quiet authority and lethal precision. He sees through Kael’s defenses almost instantly, sparking a rivalry that quickly turns into something far more complicated. Their clashes are intense, both on and off the training grounds, each encounter laced with tension, pride, and an undeniable pull neither of them is willing to acknowledge. As deadly trials push students beyond their limits, Kael and Lucien are forced into close proximity, their survival depending on cooperation rather than conflict. Secrets begin to unravel—about the academy, their families, and hidden force manipulating events from the shadows. Kael discovers that his past is deeply intertwined with the Draven legacy, and Lucien is not as untouchable as he seems. What begins as hatred slowly transforms into a fragile, dangerous bond—one built on shared pain, unspoken truths, and forbidden desire. But in a world where emotions are exploited as weapons, loving the wrong person could be ultimate weakness. As tensions rise and loyalties are tested, Kael and Lucien must decide whether to cling to their pride or trust each other enough to survive darkness closing in around them. Because at Draven Academy, the sharpest blades aren’t always made of steel-and the deepest wounds are carved by those you dare to love.

For sixteen years, Wren Voss has lived an ordinary life built on a guarded lie. He believes he is a Beta. He has forged records, a quiet job, and a suppressant he takes nightly. He knows only one rule about his past: never ask why his mother abandoned him or why she feared anyone discovering the truth. Then his suppressant fails. His hidden Omega nature awakens, revealing a scent powerful enough to expose the identity his mother spent years protecting. Wren isn't a Beta. He's the last surviving royal Omega of House Ilvaren, a bloodline the world believes was slaughtered sixteen years ago. Now enemies are hunting him. His only chance of survival is Kirill Voronov, the ruthless Alpha heir of the Voronov Bratva—the family Wren was told murdered his parents. Kirill offers him an impossible solution: marriage. An ancient treaty promises peace if the last Ilvaren heir marries the Voronov heir. But Wren refuses to become anyone's possession, especially that of the enemy who represents everything he has been taught to hate. Yet Kirill refuses to treat him like property. As danger forces them closer, distrust gives way to attraction and a bond neither can explain. Then Kirill discovers the records of the Ilvaren massacre were deliberately altered. Eleven pages are missing. The casualty count was falsified. And Wren's scent is older than the royal records themselves. Someone didn't simply hide the last royal Omega. Someone has been protecting him—or waiting for him. As enemies close in and the truth behind the massacre emerges, Wren must decide whether Kirill will destroy his freedom or become the man capable of protecting his life, his crown, and his heart. Because the royal family may not have died sixteen years ago. Someone lied. And now the last royal Omega has come home.
