Ember Lark

Effie Ward was never meant to be found. For twenty-four years, her life has been quiet, controlled—safe. Her strange sensitivities buried beneath medication. Her past erased. Until one night…a single drop of her blood awakens an ancient power—and calls something terrifying straight to her door.

Mary Catherine has spent her entire life being good. Good girls don’t crave. Good girls don’t ache. Good girls don’t want. So when her thoughts begin to drift into dangerous territory—into hunger, into heat, into something she can’t pray away—she does the only thing she’s ever been taught to do.

She ran from a man who thought he owned her… and landed in the territory of something far more dangerous. Harper Vale didn't leave a note. Didn't take the ring. Didn't look back.

They didn’t abduct her to kill her. They took her to breed her. Dr. Polly Taylor is a xenobiologist—until she becomes the experiment. Captured by the dying alien species known as the Kresh, she’s thrown into a brutal truth: their females can’t reproduce… but human omegas can. And Polly?

He’s a monster who chose exile. She’s an omega who refuses to kneel. For centuries, William Matthews has hidden in the shadows —scarred, cursed, and convinced he’s unworthy of love. But when Bennie Thompson walks into his cathedral claiming him as her mate, everything he’s buried begins to unravel.

She took the wrong road… and found something that refuses to let her go. When Elena’s car dies on a deserted forest road, she expects inconvenience. Maybe fear. She doesn’t expect to be hunted by something she can’t see—or saved by something far worse. Asterion is not a man. He is ancient.
