Seraphine Vale is betrayed on her twentieth birthday, not celebrated. Drugged and abandoned by the family that despises her, she awakens in a luxury hotel suite beside Lucian Ardent, a powerful and untouchable billionaire feared across elite society. Their meeting is accidental and the result of a conspiracy, but by dawn, her life is already falling apart. When Seraphine gets back to her house, judgment takes the place of protection. Weeks later, her pregnancy is exposed at the family dinner table. She is locked up, forced into premature labor, and deceived into thinking her newborn child has died in the aftermath of calculated cruelty. She is exiled out of the country and pursued, narrowly avoiding being killed, and she then vanishes outside of its borders. She is ignored by everyone. She will never be seen again by her foes. She returns six years later. Seraphine re-enters high society transformed, no longer fragile but elegant, powerful, and emotionally untouchable. With mastery in medicine, a rising fashion empire, and alliances among the elite, she begins reclaiming what was stolen from her. Her presence disrupts the carefully constructed life of Lydia, the stepsister who stole her place, her identity, and her child. Lucian Ardent continues to look for the mysterious woman from that night despite the fact that he is unaware that she now appears before him under a different name and with different powers. Rivalry, suspicion, and an inexplicable pull that neither can ignore cross their paths. A brilliant young boy stands in the middle of them, drawn to the woman who thinks her child is dead. As deception unravels and buried truths surface, love and revenge converge in a world where reputation is power and identity is a weapon. Seraphine did not return for forgiveness but for the truth and revenge.

Seth was never meant to exist. In Astra, rulers are born with dragon teeth, the sacred mark of kings.

She took vows to serve God. He built an empire serving only himself. Sister Seraphine thought she buried her sins the moment she entered the convent. Silence, prayer, and devotion became her shield against a past that would never forgive her. Until Cassian Vale walked into her world-billionaire, sinner, and the very embodiment of temptation. He wanted her innocence. She wanted redemption. But the moment their eyes met, both of them knew-this was no holy ground. In a city where cathedrals hide corruption and holy men are devils in disguise, Seraphine and Cassian are bound by a dangerous truth: sometimes, salvation doesn't come from God... It comes from sin.

Evren Draven was born with a mark no one could explain. For nineteen years it remained silent. Then ancient ruins buried beneath the northern mountains awaken, and the symbol hidden on his chest begins to burn. Pearl Ashbourne has spent her life hunting monsters and uncovering forgotten history. When several Wardens vanish near the newly discovered ruins, she is sent north to investigate what lies beneath the mountains. The mission should have been simple. Instead, every answer leads to another question. Why do the ruins react to Evren? Why do ancient symbols seem to recognize Pearl? And why do forbidden records speak of a forgotten race erased so completely that even their name should no longer exist? As buried secrets rise to the surface, Evren and Pearl uncover a conspiracy older than kingdoms, older than Lycans, and perhaps older than the gods themselves. Someone has been manipulating events for centuries. Someone has been waiting for them since before they were born. And if the truth is revealed, the world may never be the same again.
