Love becomes unchained. Ava-Marie Nothing can scare you when you've already died. Caught between the realm of the living and the dead, I'm not the same person I used to be. I'm darker, crazier... and nothing's going to stop me from ruling over this prison. The merfolk key is linked to a legendary assassin, and Kallie might be the way to find it. If we're going to save the Elves, my friends and I will have to resort to unsavory methods. I'm getting justice for my past, and taking revenge no matter what the consequences. My prophecy will test just how far I'm willing to go. If I truly want to stop the end of the world, we'll have to go to the one place every inmate fears... Cellblock 9. Charlie The Warden nearly stole the love of my life away. I'm determined to protect what's mine with everything in me. He thinks he can lock me in this cage, but I'm prepared to show him just what a villain can do. Our demigod powers grow stronger by the day, and soon, nothing will be able to contain us... contain me. There's nothing I won't do to fulfill my destiny. One way or another, we're escaping the Institute, and raining hell down on whoever stands in our way.
Love takes a scandalous vow. Ava-Marie Things at the Institute look darker than ever. I've lost all my friends, my hope, and the person I love. To make matters worse, the prison is planning something nefarious. Experiments are being performed on inmates at the Institute, to satisfy the Warden's craving to find a demigod. I've sworn to uncover the Warden's plans, and go underground to learn just what he's plotting. Unfortunately, I can't find answers without putting my soul on the line. And the consequences are going to propel me straight to the afterlife. Charlie The Warden promises the Institute is safe, but I know better. He's hunting people down-- people like me. To protect us all, we must start a revolution. I must step up and become the leader everyone is searching for. I've decided to start teaching magic in secret to a group of prisoners I trust. When the time comes, we'll be ready to face our enemies. Students are disappearing from the prison, and we don't know where they've gone. Now, I'm next in line to vanish. But there's a way around the law. To remain where I'm needed most, Ava and I will have to make a promise that will change our entire lives. Sharing a bed with the enemy is one thing. Marrying her is another.
Soulmates conquer all. Emma The portal to Edinmyre is closing, and our end is drawing near. If I want the fae to survive, I must unite the Crystals of Harmony, or die trying. Problem is, my death is already sealed... and I'm tired of running from it. Ireland and Scotland hold the answers to the Unseelie stone's location, yet the path is heavy with secrets. We will continue to fight for the future of the fae, but I already know my fate. The prophecy will come true. I will give up my life for my nation, and join the gods in order to meet my destiny. But I don't think my mate is strong enough to let me go. Ethan Droga has taken everything. His wrath has spread across the land, and no one has been able to stop him from destroying our country. The dark lord's magic is immeasurable, and even a king is powerless to stop it. Royalty and power means nothing when evil is unleashed. There is only one person strong enough to stand up to his darkness, and she is my mate. Emma has become the strongest sorceress in the world, and is the only match for Droga's power. Despite vowing to protect her, I may lose her anyway. That is... unless we create a miracle, and perform magic that has never been done before. We cannot afford to fail. Malovia hangs in the balance.
Love can be criminal. Ava-Marie I was always good at being bad, which is why I'm the last person you'd expect to save the world. Unfortunately, I wasn't given a choice. I've learned my prophecy has something to do with the Elves, an incredible magical people that went extinct a century ago. At a paranormal prison where evil runs free, there's more to discover about the Elves than I ever expected. As my investigation continues, I receive messages from the gods, who seem certain I'm the magical world's only hope for survival. But I'd better watch my back. The Warden has something up his sleeve, and if I'm not careful, I just might get mixed up in the greatest supernatural discovery of all time... Charlie After surviving the Darke Games last semester, my performance didn't go unnoticed. I've been recruited for an elite opportunity-- a chance to compete in the underground fight club on campus. Participating will earn me privileges I can't pass up, so if I want to run this prison, I'll have to become the top fighter in the league. Ava has asked me to learn more about the Elves and help her decipher her destiny. But what she doesn't know is there's more to the prophecy than she realizes.
