What am I?” ******** In the Silvermoon kingdom, a young beta named Alina Starfall is outcast and accused of witchcraft because of her strange ability to communicate with spirits.

All Althea Lewis had ever known was a simple, solitary life—until someone informed her that she had inherited a company from the father she never knew existed, along with a marriage proposal from the most irritating man ever: Matthias Cox. As Althea entered this new life, she agreed to marry Matthias under a few conditions: no physical contact unless it's absolutely necessary, and no emotional attachment. Only a fake vow to survive. Matthias might not be as simple and cold as he appears, but love isn't part of the plan. Will Althea be able to keep her life and heart intact for two years, or will she fail miserably because of unexpected love?

The Shadow Knight is a dark fantasy novel that follows the transformation of Kaelen Dawnblade, a once honourable knight whose world is shattered when the corrupt religious Council falsely accuses his family of heresy. The story begins with Kaelen serving faithfully as a Knight-Captain in the Holy Citadel of Light. His perfect life crumbles when he's summoned to the capital, where the High Council, led by Grand Inquisitor Matthias, fabricates charges of shadow cult involvement against House Dawnblade. Despite Kaelen's protests, his family is systematically destroyed. His father executed, his sister Lyanna tortured, and his young nephew Marcus killed during "questioning." After escaping imprisonment, Kaelen discovers the true nature of the Council's corruption: they've been eliminating eastern lords who questioned their increasing taxes and power. Consumed by rage and betrayal, Kaelen encounters a mysterious merchant who guides him to the Soulstone, an ancient artifact of darkness. Through brutal trials that strip away his humanity piece by piece, he transforms into the Shadow Knight, a being of darkness with extraordinary powers. As the Shadow Knight, Kaelen begins a calculated campaign of vengeance against the Council, gathering allies among the oppressed. He discovers his new abilities allow him to destroy and heal, creating an unexpected inner conflict. Throughout his journey, he struggles with what remains of his humanity, ultimately choosing to retain his sense of justice rather than becoming a mindless force of destruction. The novel explores themes of corruption, vengeance, transformation, and the thin line between justice and revenge. As Kaelen evolves from righteous knight to shadow wielding avenger, the story questions whether one can fight monsters without becoming a monster oneself.
