I spent my life trying to escape my mother’s superstitions. Her rituals. Her whispers of evil lurking beyond. I chose logic. A master’s degree. A new life. But when she died, guilt dragged me back to honor her in the only way I knew how. A quiet song at her grave. A final goodbye. Then he appeared. A man covered in shadows, tattoos, and riddles. The next thing I knew, I was unconscious, and when I woke, I was no longer free.

My life changed forever the day my father's oil rig crashed into the ocean. Now, three men want answers I don't have, and they'll do whatever it takes to get them.

Ruined. Tortured. Broken. What could have been the perfect childhood turned into a hell that the devil himself would shy away from.

My stupid heart thought that one day, we would take that step over the line that both of us were tip toeing around.

It was supposed to be a one-night stand. A quick release before Coyote went back to his nomad lifestyle with the Royal Bastards MC. But its been five years, and he's still searching for the girl with the owl eyes who disappeared into the night. And not just because she stole his leather cut. He can't seem to get her out of his head. Until one day, she pops back up out of nowhere. Instead of breaking down her door and confronting her, Coyote does what he does best. He hides in the shadows, watches from a distance, and learns everything he can.

Elfhame has fallen. Elatha’s warriors run rampant across my city, looting and burning everything in their path.

The one constant lesson in my life is to fight. Fight for survival, fight for my family, fight for those who can’t fight for themselves. What happens when family stops fighting for you? What do you do when they just give you away, handing you over to the devil himself? I guess this is where all that training takes hold. This is where the test begins. I was born and bred to win. There is no other option in my mind. Sometimes, though, you have to know when to stand and fight and when to lie low and bide your time. Lying low wasn’t easy, but in doing so, I found something else, something new.
