Punished By His Love Sabrina And Sebastian

In the heart of 1920s New York, a city of glittering skyscrapers and smoky speakeasies, Sebastian Renwick stands out—not only for his strikingly handsome looks, with blonde hair and piercing blue eyes, but also for his sharp intellect and enigmatic presence. Sebastian, a brilliant strategist and master manipulator, has made it his mission to cleanse the city of its corrupt elite. To the public, he is a respected businessman and philanthropist, but beneath this facade lies a man driven by a relentless desire for justice. He uses his sharp intellect and cunning to orchestrate intricate schemes that expose the hidden sins of the powerful, leading to their downfall. Sebastian's sense of justice is complex and often ruthless. He believes in creating a world where the corrupt cannot hide behind their wealth and status, even if it means bending the law to achieve his goals. His methods are unconventional, his strategies perilous, but his results are undeniable. Enter Jonathan Holmes, a renowned private detective with unmatched observational skills and deductive reasoning. Jonathan, driven by his own sense of justice, becomes fascinated by the mysterious figures behind the city's recent upheavals. With a sharp mind and a charismatic demeanor, he begins to piece together the clues, leading him to the enigmatic Sebastian Renwick. As a series of high-profile murders rocks New York's elite, both Sebastian and Jonathan are drawn into a complex web of intrigue. The victims, all powerful figures with seemingly untarnished reputations, are found with a mysterious symbol carved into their skin—a symbol that points to a secret society operating within the shadows of the city's upper echelons. Sebastian and his loyal confidant, Margaret "Maggie" Caldwell, work tirelessly to expose the society's hidden machinations. Maggie, a brilliant librarian with a knack for historical research, provides essential support and insight. Together, they navigate the dangerous world of New York's elite, confronting threats and uncovering secrets. Jonathan Holmes, equipped with his keen intellect and resourcefulness, finds himself in a cat-and-mouse game with Sebastian. Their interactions are marked by tension and mutual respect, each recognizing the other's brilliance and dedication to justice. As the body count rises, the two men must navigate their own beliefs about morality and justice. In a thrilling climax, Sebastian and Jonathan confront the mastermind behind the murders—a cunning and ruthless adversary who has manipulated events from the shadows. The lines between friend and foe blur, and the true nature of justice is called into question. In the end, justice is served, but not without personal sacrifices. Sebastian's world is forever changed as he uncovers the truth about his family's past and the hidden forces that have shaped his destiny. "Sebastian Renwick" is a gripping tale of murder, mystery, and the relentless pursuit of justice, set against the backdrop of a city teeming with secrets.

In a quiet, superstition-riddled town where shadows seem to linger a little too long, Lisa is known as the “weird girl” with a fascination for the macabre. No one knows what to make of her quirky humor and dark curiosity, which is why, when she stumbles upon a centuries-old crypt and finds a mysterious body, Lisa does the unthinkable. Driven by a cocktail of boredom and obsession, she devises a plan to bring the corpse—Liam—back to life. And it works. But “life” is a loose term for what Liam experiences. With eerie, corpse-like qualities and an unsettling lack of memory, he becomes Lisa’s accidental undead companion—and possibly, her first love. Yet, trying to keep him hidden and “alive” in high school is no easy task. From teaching Liam how to fake a laugh and blend in with teenagers, to defending him from suspicious classmates and a nosy principal, Lisa quickly realizes that this new “relationship” comes with some killer complications. Things heat up when Jake, the school’s golden boy, starts vying for Lisa’s attention, stirring up jealousy in Liam and leaving Lisa torn between what’s “normal” and her strange, undeniable bond with her undead crush. As Liam’s past starts to surface in disturbing flashes, Lisa realizes that the mystery of his death is darker than either of them could’ve imagined—and their lives (or half-life) may depend on uncovering it. As they face suspicions, rivalry, and dangerous memories that threaten to consume Liam, Lisa must confront a terrifying truth: bringing Liam back from the dead was only the beginning. With love that defies life and death, awakened by love, bound by death, is a twisted, heart-pounding, and irresistibly funny tale of romance, rebellion, and redemption. Can Lisa and Liam survive the secrets of his past? Or will they find themselves torn apart by forces far darker than the grave?

Salvation. Sanctuary. A safe place. Somewhere he can be safe and free. Somewhere away from abuse, from his bullies, from harassment, from false judgements... from ropes... and whips... somewhere away from pain. Somewhere they will never reach him. That is what Aqueo Harp had always been wishing for. So when he finds himself dying and waking up in a world of magic, a world completely different from the one he had, he views it as a blessing in disguise. It was the thing he had been asking for—to escape from the cruel fate of an orphan like him in his previous world—a life under the mercy of a human trafficking organization that plunged him in a cycle of recurrent depression, back-and-forth at the local detention center, and other stuff that are known to be interrelated with juvenile delinquency. With that in mind, Aqueo swears to never go back to his miserable old life and live an opposite life in the new world, one that is devoid of any trouble he had in the past. But not even a full day has passed when he finds out that his fate in this new world might end up the same as his previous one. This place is also brimming with slavery and other abuse, just as dangerous as his previous world—or even worse. But there is hope, Aqueo Harp meets a water spirit and finds new friends, something he never had for a long time. With their help, Aqueo doesn't feel as hopeless anymore.
