Cole Turns Phoebe Dark

Turning: Those who shine in the dark

"She was never meant to be seen. He was never meant to exist." In the quiet town of Gloria, Aidan lives in hiding—his blood potent, his identity dangerous. Bound by a secret past and the weight of a curse, he crafts potions for survival and watches over his younger twin, Adeena. When an invitation arrives for a royal ball in the capital, Aidan makes a choice that will haunt him: he lets her go. Dressed in borrowed silk and escorted by a paid chaperone, Adeena enters a world of chandeliers, masks, and veiled intentions. Aidan stays behind... at first. But when his uncle warns him of a shadow moving within the palace—one that knows what he is—Aidan infiltrates the event, unseen, cloaked in secrecy. The ball ends in fire. The girl vanishes. Aidan’s blood can heal—but not rewind time.Adeena smiled as the violins swelled. Draped in sapphire blue, her hair pinned with borrowed pearls, she looked older than her years—almost noble. No one in that ballroom knew she’d come from a forgotten village. No one knew her chaperone was paid. No one suspected the boy who sent her here was watching from above. Aidan stood among the shadows of the chandelier beams, breath held tight, gaze fixed only on her. He was never meant to be seen—not here, where his father’s face might be recognized in his own. Eldric gave the signal. Everything’s fine. But it wasn’t. A woman in red silk approached Adeena. She smiled too much. She moved too slowly. And when she touched Adeena’s hand—just a brush—Aidan flinched. That’s not Dahlia, he thought. And it’s not Mary. The chandeliers exploded. The glass rained like cursed snow. By the time Aidan reached the ballroom floor, Adeena was gone. Turning is a gothic fantasy of stolen identities, cursed bloodlines, and a brother’s descent into a world that was never meant to remember him. For readers of Heaven Official’s Blessing, Who Made Me a Princess, and The Abandoned Empress.

DARK JUSTICE

"The water choked him, the cold seeping into his bones. His mind, usually so sharp, fractured into a thousand desperate thoughts. He saw her face above him, contorted by a primal rage, and in his final, suffocating gasp, he knew. Not just an opponent. A predator. He tried to speak, to beg, to curse, but only a gurgle escaped as darkness claimed him. His last thought, a chilling realization: She was more monster than detective." In the rain-slicked streets of Owerri, I live a double life. By day, I'm Detective Elise Blackwood, bound by the law, navigating a system that often fails the innocent. By night, I become a ghost, a weapon forged by a mother's murder, hunting the powerful Network – the city's corrupt elite who operate above all law. They stole my past; I'm here to tear down their future. Every stolen ledger, every breached server, drags me deeper into their deadly game, transforming me from hunter to the hunted. My knuckles ached, the water cold as ice, as I forced him under. This wasn't just justice. This was survival. And a promise kept. I've walked through fire, made impossible choices, and faced betrayal from every angle. Now, as I close in on their elusive financial architect, Pierce M., the man whose secrets can finally bring their empire crashing down, the true cost of my war reveals itself. The truth about Pierce is far more devastating, far more personal, than any nightmare I could have imagined. My pursuit of dark justice is about to collide with a betrayal that will redefine everything I am.
