Someone murdered him. And as his memories slowly return, so does the truth about the person responsible. He has limited time to reclaim his humanity, uncover the truth, and settle the score.

In the neon-soaked, gothic spire-city of Oakhaven, human worth is not earned-it is quantified. The System measures all: Mana capacity, combat affinity, and soul potential. To hold high numbers is to rule; to sit at the bottom is to be discarded. When Shinto, second son of the prestigious Shinzen Clan, was born, the holographic interface glitched. It output no grand class, no celestial mana reserves, and no growth multipliers. RANK: NULL. LEVEL 1. MANA: 0 / 0. In a world dependent on System-assisted auto-aim, magical shields, and numerical superiority, Shinto is a true baseline zero-a defective anomaly unable to receive a single stat buff. Cast aside by his family and left with nothing but his grandfather's brutal, old-world discipline, Shinto learns a truth the world forgot: When you rely on a System to guide your blade, you become predictable. No cheats. No hidden overpowered inheritances. Just blood, leverage, and cold, uncompromising pragmatism. While the prodigies of Oakhaven hone their magic, Shinto trains his flesh to break their barriers, out-think their algorithms, and bleed them dry. Because in a matrix governed by absolute rules, the one thing the System cannot calculate... is a boy with nothing left to lose.

Author's note: The Deadly Trio takes place both before and after the events of The Cursed Cavaliers, exploring the lives of the legendary figures whose choices shaped the world long before Ella, Wynn and Valko began their journey. While this novel can be read on its own, it contains major revelations and spoilers for The Cursed Cavaliers. For the intended experience, I highly recommend reading The Cursed Cavaliers first before beginning this story. The Deadly Trio is divided into three distinct periods: Year One and Year Two follow the trio during their early years together at the Capital, while the Final Years take place several years later and explore the events that ultimately shape their legacy. All three periods form one complete story and are included within this novel. That said... Enjoy the journey. The Deadly Trio: Some friendships are forged by fate. Others are tested by it. When eighteen-year-old Ava Slade arrives at the Capital to begin her journey as the youngest sorceress in generations, she expects years of study, discipline and discovery. She doesn't expect to meet Vincent Gray, the brilliant inventor who seems more interested in his own creations than people. Nor does she expect Sarena Crow, the castle's most gifted and notoriously intimidating sorceress, whose sharp tongue hides far more than anyone realises. Together, the three become inseparable. The castle soon begins whispering a single name. The Deadly Trio. But as the years pass, ambition grows, responsibilities mount, and secrets buried deep within the kingdom begin clawing their way back into the light. While Ava struggles to guide the next generation of sorcerers, Vincent becomes consumed by an invention that promises to change history itself, and Sarena embarks on a path from which there may be no return. Some legends are remembered for how they began. This is the story of how one was broken.

NOCTURNE is a gothic vampire romance built around mystery, supernatural, obsession, temptation, and-most importantly-choice. Centered on Zoya Dubois, an aloof, athletic, dryly sarcastic university student whose ordinary life at Ravenscroft University begins colliding with something ancient and impossible. At the center of that supernatural world is Valeria Nocturne-a beautiful, dangerous, seductive immortal who was once the Queen of Edevraine. Centuries ago, Valeria loved a woman named Élodie Beaumont, her personal graveguard and protector. Élodie died protecting Valeria during a war, leaving behind a loss Valeria has carried through centuries of immortality. Then Valeria discovers Zoya. Something about Zoya connects her to Élodie-through the mysterious bloodline/past connection Valeria becomes convinced that Zoya represents the return of something she lost long ago. But the important rule of NOCTURNE is that Valeria cannot simply take Zoya. She may be obsessive, possessive, seductive, manipulative in subtle ways, terrifyingly protective, and passionately in love with her-but Zoya must ultimately choose Valeria and the world of Nocturne willingly. Instead of imprisoning Zoya, Valeria enters her human life disguised as Professor Vivi Noiret, a stunning brunette professor at Ravenscroft University. As Vivi, Valeria deliberately stays close enough to observe Zoya, challenge her, tease her, and slowly become part of her everyday world. Zoya has absolutely no idea that her irritatingly elegant professor and the mysterious blonde woman haunting her thoughts are the same person.
