Behind Her Eyes

Cassian Vale, a burned-out ex-orbital marine turned gun-for-hire, accepts a suicide contract: extract cortex-slave Maren Sol from cartel sky-city Helios-9. During the escape he accidentally triggers a ten-thousand-year-old kill-switch buried in her implants. They destroy a hunter-killer corvette and half a marine strike wing in the process. Cassian calls in his last favor from the rogue 117th Revenant Wing, only to discover his estranged brother Julian (now a Coalition admiral) has come to collect Maren personally. Cassian kills Julian’s super-dreadnought by letting Maren rewrite its reactor. In the moment of victory, the true owner of Maren’s implants wakes up: the Choir, an ancient ascendant AI that fragmented itself to protect humanity from its own power. One of those fragments is Maren. It wants the piece back. The Revenant flagship is devoured. Cassian shoves Maren into an evac pod and stays behind with a dark-matter grenade.

His status as a disciple of Helma Tilcott, the only healer in the Lanshire Kingdom possessing the rare healing zhenqi, had brought Marc Belmont no advantage at all. From the start, few believed he could ever become her heir; no matter how diligently he tried to absorb her teachings or practice her skills, everything seemed to vanish from his mind as if it had never been there. Years of effort appeared to have been in vain, and Marc began to question if he was truly meant for this life. One day, a group of messengers arrived from the city of Cammont, their mocking words cutting through the air as they demanded he follow them. “I’m not interested,” Marc replied flatly, his voice devoid of the hesitation it once carried. “Ungrateful! Is this how you treat someone who raised you?” The messengers clenched their fists, anger burning in their eyes as they rushed toward him. Marc's lips curled into a confident smirk. “Those days are long gone. You clearly have no idea who you're dealing with.”

In the parking lot of Ifewood University, students were trickling in and out of the Mozambique hostel for female students.  James Keenan, a charismatic postgraduate student of business known as a "Campus Bad Boy," was infamous through his undergraduate days as a con man, sly, and a member of the university cult, The Eagles.  His piercing eyes rove up and down the road as he tries to select his pick for the night. The Eagles were throwing a party on the outskirts of town tonight.  Most students had returned home as school was officially on summer break.  James sat in Shane's car with Gabriel, Austin, and Shane, all members of the same cult, smoking, and each man nursing his own thoughts about the party tonight. Beatrice Kenan was coming back from the library, dressed in a simple yellow tank top, blue jeans, and denim canvas. Her bag was strapped to her shoulder, and her mind was in turmoil. She wondered, How on earth could she fail the simplest of her courses? Professor Bam must definitely be a certified bastard to have failed her. How is she ever going to pass this course without succumbing to his threats and advances? Just as she thought of picking up her phone from her bag to call her friend Yvonne, she came into James's vision. Who is she?  Definitely the one.  As far as James was concerned, the night was set for the Eagles. None of them could have imagined what destiny planned for the future, as love, betrayal, and deception set the pace in this love triangle.

Ashes of the Forsaken Bride Amara Cole spent her life navigating the shadows of a family that viewed her as an invisible asset. When she is traded into a marriage with Damien Hartwell—the notoriously cold, brilliant heir to a multi-billion-dollar empire—she foolishly believes she is escaping a nightmare. Instead, she merely steps into a more glamorous cage. Behind the grand gates of the Hartwell estate, Amara finds a world defined by old-money malice. Her mother-in-law maps her flaws with clinical precision, her sister-in-law treats her presence as a joke, and Damien remains entirely untouchable, running their marriage like a bloodless corporate transaction. Yet, Amara clings to the fragile hope that if she just proves her worth, she can earn a place at their table. But in a world built on power, hope is a liability. When a calculated betrayal frames her for a corporate disaster, Amara is abandoned by the husband she tried to trust. Left with nothing, she vanishes into the night, leaving the elite social circle to believe she is gone forever. Years later, the ashes finally clear. The timid girl they dismantled never returned.

Amara has forged her heartbreak into a weapon, uncovering the dark secrets that can bring down dynasties. As she steps back into the high-society spotlight, she isn't looking for a reconciliation. She is here to watch them fall. Damien is forced to confront the absolute worst mistake of his life, but when a ghost returns to claim what's hers, late-night regret won't be enough to alter the contract. This time, the price of his betrayal is everything.
