Hellbound: The Last Tribute - undefined novels & stories
Castiel
Destiny is something written in books, a fictitious fantasy. I’ve always believed that what we do today is one step towards our future. We make our own choice, and we decide on who we will be until I met him—Elijah Valentin. He made me question what I know and what I feel. Just his mere presence messed with my head in more ways than one. The push and pull of emotions, the exhilarating feeling every time we crossed paths, and the gut-wrenching agony in my chest when I saw him with someone else. For the first time in my life, I hoped that the fictitious fantasy was real, that he was my destiny. He stirred my life in beautiful chaos, knocked down the ten-foot wall I built around my heart with just the flick of his fingers. But he also showed me how painful it is to want something that I could never have—him. ~~ "You are bound to me, Rory,” he said, eyes glowing like the silver moon above us. His touch flickered fire under my skin, a frizzling electric shock that stirred the desire inside me. “You are my salvation, but I am the hellfire that will burn your life to ashes.” [Mature Content]

What would you do if the TV celebrity you despise is the only one who can help you? Fran Garner finds herself living in a haunted house, but among all the weird things around, there's something darker and more dangerous lurking. To her dismay, the only one who can deal with it is the king of TV ghost hunters, Brandon Price. Not only is he the last person she would like to turn to for help: they're also black-and-white opposites about pretty much everything. But teaming up will bring them much closer than they ever expected, and now it'll be up to them if they follow their hearts or turn their backs to the unyielding feeling that binds them together. A story about bonds that transcend realms, about love and light even in the darkest places, and the struggle to overcome an inner darkness that can be scarier than actual demons. "A mix of romance, humour, special friendships and the supernatural, with uncommon spins like no other."

"Saffron, I asked you a question. What happened to your dress?" Atlas asked again like he cared. Why was he calling her name like they were pals? How did he even know her name? This was the first time in seven years that they talked. Atlas isn't one to care about mere workers in the mansion, let alone commit their names to memory. So why her? Ignoring Atlas was not an option, so she parted her lips. "I–" Saffron was about to lie her way through when she caught sight of Caspian walking over. "Talk to me! Did Caspian do this to you?!" Atlas frowned and grabbed her jaw, forcing her to look his way. "How did–" so this was it? Atlas orchestrated last night's incident? He set her up!

She continued crying as she lamented sorrowfully like she was already having her last minute of life. Caspian walked past without acknowledging any of them with a mere glance. After he ambled out of the corridor, Atlas moved away and glared condescendingly at Saffron, "Don't think too highly of yourself. You've served your purpose. You were a mere pawn." ...

IZO44 AI PREDATOR - undefined novels & stories
ADAOBI SWEETIE ADINNU
The world has no shortage of action stories where problems are solved through bullets and explosions. Readers are increasingly looking for thrillers that challenge the mind and the heart. IZO 44: AI Predator answers that demand with a fresh kind of detective novel: one where intelligence, technology, digital forensics, artificial intelligence, cyber investigation, psychology, and human insight become the true weapons against organized crime. Joel Vale is not defined by gun but by the mysteries he unravels through observation, deduction and courage. This book is a detective series that celebrates critical thinking, teamwork, and justice while exploring the opportunities and dangers of emerging technologies. IZO 44: AI Predator Series Vision When brilliant artificial intelligence researcher Ava Morgan vanishes without a trace, every clue points in a different direction. Only detective Joel Vale notices a pattern hidden beneath the digital noise. As Joel and his investigative team follow seemingly unrelated disappearances, they uncover an invisible predator unlike any criminal they have faced before. It leaves no fingerprints, breaks no doors, and rarely appears in person. Instead, it watches. Quietly learning from surveillance systems, public networks, behavioral data, and the predictable routines of ordinary people, it identifies victims long before they realize they are being hunted. Every breakthrough only deepens the mystery. The investigation reveals an adaptive intelligence capable of anticipating human decisions, manipulating evidence, and staying several moves ahead of its pursuers. To stop the Predator, Joel must defeat not only a machine, but the hidden architects who transformed revolutionary technology into a weapon against humanity. Just as victory seems within reach, encrypted financial records expose the existence of a shadowy figure whose influence stretches across continents. His identity remains unknown. The only name attached to the empire is: The Crypto Kingpin ….which is the sequel to this book.
