Gilbert Von Obsidian

17 was the year everything shattered. My parents divorced. My lover cheated. My best friend deceived me. Now, all I want is to survive senior year in silence. But silence isn’t possible when your skin suddenly glows with weird runes, the world freezes in arithmetic class, and a recruiter pulls you to The Obsidian Academy school for monsters that shouldn’t exist. I don’t know what I am. But the boys here… they appear determined to find out: A storm-eyed werewolf who saves me but swears I’ll ruin him. A vampire prince who says my blood is his alone. A dragon boy who nearly burns me alive protecting me. A sinfully hot professor who stares at me like I broke his heart in another life. I came here hoping for answers. Instead, I’ve unearthed a curse older than the Academy itself, one that binds me to them in ways I can’t fight. And when passion becomes deadly, treachery bleeds deeper than love. I thought I was human. But the monsters aren’t my foes. The true risk is what I’m becoming.

In the sterile, glass-and-steel heart of Thorne Tower, Lyra Belcourt is a woman with a secret mission. To the world, she is a brilliant auditor sent to dissect the crumbling financial empire of the enigmatic Silas Thorne. To Silas, she is the first person in years who doesn't flinch at his cold, calculated dominance. Driven by a dark, magnetic attraction, Silas offers her a deal: absolute access to his ledgers in exchange for absolute submission to his "Protocol"—a rigid lifestyle contract governing her every move, breath, and thought. As Lyra enters the "Obsidian Room," the story unfolds as a high-stakes game of power and sensory exploration. However, the deeper she sinks into Silas’s world, the more the reality around them begins to fracture. Silas is plagued by "glitches" in his memory and a haunting sense of deja vu, while Lyra is secretly recording his every physiological response. The corporate war with the ruthless Caspian Vane is merely a distraction from the terrifying truth hidden within the Gilded Ledger. The ultimate "mind-blowing" twist reveals that the "Thorne Protocol" isn't a game of lust, but a psychological simulation. Silas is a personality construct built by Lyra herself to replace a broken man named Leo. In a final, heart-stopping revelation, the readers discover that even Lyra’s control is an illusion—they are both trapped in a digital "Mirror Image" loop where their roles as Master and Servant are programmed to reset forever.

Nach dem großen Krieg zwischen Menschen, Vampiren, Werwölfen und Elfen wurde ein Abkommen geschlossen: Hybride Nachkommen sollten über die Welt herrschen. In jedem Jahrhundert entschieden Heiratsallianzen zwischen den Menschen und den drei Clans darüber, wer der nächste Weltenherrscher wurde. Die Blutlinie, die als Erste ein Hybridkind hervorbrachte, beanspruchte die Macht. In meinem letzten Leben entschied ich mich, Jax zu heiraten, den ältesten Sohn des Werwolfrudels, der für seine fanatische Loyalität bekannt war. Ich brachte unseren hybriden Sohn zur Welt – einen weißfelligen Welpen, den wir Zeal nannten. Unser Kind wurde zum neuen Herrscher der Welt, und Jax gewann unermessliche Macht. Meine Schwester hingegen war von der Schönheit der Elfen besessen und heiratete in ihren Clan ein. Doch der Elfenprinz ließ keine Gelegenheit aus und nahm sich jede Frau im Wald. Am Ende zog sich meine Schwester eine Krankheit zu, die sie unfruchtbar machte. Von Neid und Verbitterung zerfressen legte sie ein Feuer, das mich und meinen jungen Welpen bei lebendigem Leib verbrannte. Als ich die Augen erneut öffnete, war ich wieder am Tag der Rassenallianzen. Meine Schwester hatte bereits als Erste mit Jax geschlafen. Ich wusste, dass auch sie wiedergeboren worden war. Doch sie wusste nicht, dass Jax gegenüber seinen Gefährtinnen grausam und brutal war – während seiner Brunst hatte er in seinem Bett bereits unzählige Wölfinnen zerfleischt.

Kesley Bellamy has perfected the art of sabotaging blind dates — for a price. When her best friend begs her to scare off yet another setup, Kesley agrees. A thousand dollars to act crazy for an hour? Easy money. She'll chew gum like a maniac, mention her pot-smoking habit, and maybe proposition the guy for good measure. He'll run screaming, and she'll finally fix her dying laptop. But the man who walks into that restaurant isn't the balding, boring businessman she expected. He's Niklaus Specter — the devastatingly handsome CEO of SpecterTech. The same company Kelsey just applied to. The same company that's her last hope of breaking into the tech industry as a female developer. Worse? He doesn't run away. He finds her antics... intriguing. Now Kesley has three days to transform from "Taraji Gilbert" — the pot-smoking, sex-crazed teacher who just propositioned him — into Kesley Bellamy, the professional data analyst who desperately needs this job. But Niklaus Specter didn't become a billionaire by missing details. And when Kesley walks into her interview on Monday morning, she's about to discover that some mistakes are too expensive to hide. Especially when the CEO remembers everything. A hilarious, steamy romance about mistaken identities, second chances, and the fine line between disaster and destiny.

Heute ist unser dritter Hochzeitstag. Das Abendessen ist fertig... aber er ist immer noch nicht zurück. Unsere Verbindung war nie aus Liebe, sondern nur aus einem Missverständnis. Drei Jahre ohne Kind, eine feindliche Schwiegermutter, ein distanzierter Ehemann und trotzdem liebe ich ihn noch. Vor drei Tagen habe ich erfahren, dass ich schwanger bin. Heute Abend hoffte ich, ihm die Neuigkeit zu verkünden. Dann kam eine Benachrichtigung, die alles zerstörte: ein Foto von ihm, wie er meine Schwester küsst. Ich erkannte den Ort. Ich nahm meine Schlüssel.

My mate, Raelor Thorne, is the Alpha of the Silvermoon Pack. He once swore that in this lifetime, he would mark only me. Yet one month before our marking ceremony, he insisted that he must first mark with Seraphine Morcant, his late brother's mate. He claimed it was to comfort her and preserve his brother's bloodline. He said he would help her conceive an heir, so the line would not die. I refused. He brought it up every day after that, pressing harder each time, leaving me no room to breathe. Then, half a month before the ceremony, I received a report from the Pack Healing Sanctum. It stated clearly that Seraphine had already been marked and was nearly one month pregnant. In that moment, I finally understood. Raelor had never intended to ask for my consent. So I canceled the marking ceremony. I burned every token that tied us together. On the day we were meant to bind our lives, I left Silvermoon Territory alone. I traveled to the Obsidian Pack to further my mastery of healing arts and formally accepted the position of Chief Healer within their Order. From that day forward, there would be nothing left between Raelor and me. No bond. No mercy. No return.
