The chronicles of the soul harvester

Jane_Nadin
In a world where souls are the currency of power, the Soul Harvesters reign from the shadows, feared by kings and whispered about in hushed tones. They are a secret order of assassins who harvest the essence of the living, using it to fuel their magic and extend their lives. Riven, a ruthless Harvester, is a product of this deadly world. Once a noble warrior, his family was slaughtered by a rival faction, and he now serves the Order with a singular goal: revenge. Driven by the need to avenge the lives stolen from him, Riven wields an ability that sets him apart from his peers—the power of Void Consumption, which allows him to consume souls and gain terrifying strength. Each soul he devours boosts his power, but with each consumption, a part of his humanity slips away, threatening to turn him into a monster. As Riven rises through the ranks of the Soul Harvesters, he becomes entangled in a conspiracy that threatens to unravel the very foundation of the Order. But the more souls he consumes, the closer he comes to succumbing to the darkness within. With every soul harvested, he risks losing himself forever. Can he hold onto his humanity long enough to exact his revenge, or will the very power that drives him destroy everything he once was?

The Duke’s Bargain

“What did you say?” Félix asked. She repeated, “Name your price.” “What is that supposed to mean?” His voice had tapered off with an unreadable emotion that got her weak in her knees, but she held out her chin. “Didn't you once offer to pay me off? Now, make me an offer I cannot refuse. Otherwise, I will go in there"—she gestured toward the Ball—"and make everyone think you dragged me out here to take advantage of me. I know exactly what that would do to your reputation.” “Say. That. Again,” Félix said through gritted teeth as he inched closer to her. ====================== She hadn’t meant to upset him or, worse, blackmail him. She didn’t even know who he was; she only knew he looked important because of how regally he stood in the moonlit dark. Estella was the baron of Cleverdale’s youngest, born into a hard life and always kept on her toes. Her stepsisters hated her. The baroness loathed her. And her father, the only one she called family, shattered her heart when he sold her to Viscount Alistair Ravensdale to cover up his misdeeds. The night of Lady Agatha’s ball, she seized her chance and ran straight into … Duke Félix of Chateaûbriant. In the dark, he mistook her for Princess Coralie, his fiancée, and kissed her. When the moon revealed her face, something about her stuck with him. He couldn’t shake the image of her running wildly or how she smelled like white lotus with hardcore roots. But when she threatened his reputation, he refused to play along. She returned to her world of cruel sisters and an unwanted engagement. What she hadn’t prepared for was the Duke arriving at her doorstep, making two outrageous claims. One. He was the Duke of Chateaûbriant. And two. She had stolen something valuable from him that night. What had she stolen without knowing it? Or worse, what could he possibly demand as repayment? ✯Like it? Add to Library!
