Keeping our existence a secret protected the pack. Now the wrong people know about us. That's the reason the Alphas and I have been abducted to be hunted for sport, but we have no intention of going down without a fight. Escape seems nearly impossible once it becomes apparent that we've been betrayed by those that we once considered allies and that many of our secrets have been exposed. If we are to survive this, we need our pack.

The demon realm doesn't care why you bargain. Only that you pay. I have two rules for survival: never trust a demon, and never make a deal with one. Trapped in the demon realm, I'm about to break both. If I want to escape, I'll have to bargain with creatures who thrive on contracts written in blood—and the cost of breaking them is death. Waiting for me on the other side isn't freedom. It's fallout.

For a brief moment, I had magic. Powerful magic. Then the Dark Prince's enemy stole it from me—becoming something far more dangerous than either of us anticipated. Armed with my stolen power, their goal is simple: destroy everything tied to Dominic's world. That includes me. The supernatural world is unraveling. Dominic's life is in danger, my loved ones are caught in the crossfire, and the Underworld stands on the brink of collapse. Survival is no longer about escape or alliances.

Powerful magic was supposed to protect me. Instead, it became a liability. For most of my life, all I wanted was magic. Now I have it. Powerful magic. And I know with absolute certainty that the price was far too high.

The Underworld was never meant to be a place I survived—let alone one I couldn't escape. Trapped beneath the world of the living, my only goals are escape and survival. But once Dominic realizes I'm more than a human with a streak of bad luck, leaving becomes far more complicated—and far more dangerous. In a realm ruled by monsters, I'm either used as bait to force Dominic's hand or targeted in assassination attempts meant to weaken his rule. In Underworld politics, alliances are weapons, and every weakness is exploited.

I have two rules for survival: never trust a demon, and never make a deal with one. Trapped in the demon realm, I’m about to break both. If I want to escape, I’ll have to bargain with creatures who thrive on contracts written in blood—and the cost of breaking them is death. Waiting for me on the other side isn’t freedom. It's fallout. A god—who happens to be my mother—wants me dead. An unforgiving fae wants me gone at any cost and doesn’t care that we’re related. And I owe a debt to the city’s most dangerous vampire.

I needed a win and ended up with a hell of a loss. After my life imploded, I thought finding a strangely beautiful ring behind a bookstore dumpster meant my luck was finally changing. Instead, it put me face to face with Dominic—the Prince of the Underworld and warden of a supernatural prison. He’s responsible for dragging the worst of the worst from our world and locking them away. No mercy. No leniency. Now he’s accusing me of releasing three of its most dangerous inmates.

My magic has attracted the wrong kind of attention from a powerful fae, and I’ve crossed the vampires one too many times. The fragile fortune that’s kept me alive has run out. Danger is closing in fast—and this time, I may not outrun it. As if that weren’t bad enough, a demon has placed a bounty on my head. And there’s no shortage of hunters willing to collect.

My magic can kill. Now, it might be the reason I die. For years, I thought I was Raven Cursed - only to discover I’m something much worse. But nothing about my life is as shocking as what I discover about Mephisto, the mysterious and alluring client who’s always had a special interest in me. Now I know why. My curse and Mephisto’s secrets have to take a back seat when the most powerful vampire in the city hires me for a job. It seems simple enough: Negotiate the acquisition of a weapon that can kill his kind faster than a stake to the heart.

A spell revealed I was marked by the raven. Now what? Well, I already know day drinking isn’t the answer. And Mephisto, with his increasing interest in me and my magic, isn’t either. But what is? The secrets behind the mark keep unfolding, revealing that I’m more dangerous than anyone ever suspected and that I’m the only person preventing the demise of several powerful and dangerous magical beings. Some people want me as an ally and others simply want me dead - and I have no idea who’s on my side.

The mark should have killed me. Instead, it made me a target. My magic has always caused problems. They call it death’s kiss. The witches avoid me. The fae despise me. Mages plot behind my back. Demons think we’re kindred. And the local pack? They can’t decide whether I’m a threat to contain or a problem to eliminate.

I survived by staying hidden. But secrets never stay buried. I’m Levy Michaels—an antique dealer by trade, fugitive by bloodline. When supernaturals were revealed to the world, they got PR teams, businesses, and their own guilds. If I wanted to live, I got the chance to stay hidden. Legacy-born, I’m heir to a kind of magic the world outlawed long ago. I’ve spent my life pretending to be human—and doing a damn good job of it. Until the day I don’t.

No one said life was going to be easy, but mine just keeps getting harder. My best friend has been abducted by a madman who seems to have returned from the dead with the sole goal of seeking revenge against me. She’s my friend, but she’s also essential in finding a cure for a virus that has the potential to destroy the supernatural world. Did I mention there’s a war brewing between supernaturals and humans? My people, the Legacy, were responsible for the first supernatural war, and now I’m tasked with preventing the second.

Sometimes the penalty for magic is death. The Midwest Pack used the Clostra to perform a powerful and dangerous spell to save me. Now the pack is dealing with the aftermath and doing damage control. But they can't hide how the magic has changed the dynamics of the otherworld-or that they are responsible. Ethan has dangerous secrets and so do I. The worst one: I developed new and disturbing powers reminiscent of a deadly being that once ruled and terrorized the otherworld. What Ethan and I are has been exposed. 

A shapeshifter who possesses magic shouldn't exist, and some people want to keep it that way. My life will never be simple again. As a werewolf who is a host to a powerful spirit shade, I possess the ability to manipulate magic, among other things-and that means I have many enemies. In need of allies, I join the Midwest Pack. Being part of the pack is supposed to make things better. It doesn't. After performing a powerful spell to protect Ethan, I'm punished and cursed by the Creed, the ruling body of the witches, who will do anything to get rid of me.   

Between life and death, there's magic. Our secrets have been exposed and now we have to deal with the consequences: Friends of the Midwest Pack are missing. Alliances are forming between enemies whose sole intent is to destroy the pack. And a mysterious group is trying to make a power grab using any means possible. With my pack and our allies in danger, I don't think things can possibly get any worse. I'm wrong.     

The vampires have broken our tentative truce and are threatening to destroy my pack. At the center of their scheme is Sky, an enigmatic lone wolf, who they believe is a weapon that can be used against us. Nothing about the quiet, doe-eyed brunette screams "danger" or "ruthless weapon." And that's the problem. My wolf's instinct says to protect her, especially after a necromancer tries to kill her, the vampires repeatedly attempt to abduct her, and we receive a dire warning about her. 

Just survive. That's been my goal since uncovering a dangerous secret: I died at birth and became host to a very powerful spirit shade. Now I have the rare ability to manipulate magic-an ability some would kill for. 

When Sky decided not to join our pack, I thought that would be the end of our dealings with the enigmatic wolf. But she's pulled back into pack business when Sky's the first one on the scene of a murder attempt of one of our pack members. At first, I mark it off as a coincidence but I'm proven wrong. After more attacks are made on the pack and assassins go after the vampires, Chris, my ex, discovers a link between Sky and the person behind the attacks.    

Being part of the Midwest Pack isn't easy - especially now. My life has never been simple - and it only keeps getting more complicated. The Alphas, Ethan, and several key players in the otherworld go missing, thrusting me into the position of Elite Alpha and tasking me with finding them. The list of suspects grows as I realize that mating with Ethan has caused allies to become enemies. Will I locate the missing in time or will I be the last Alpha standing?
