Thirty years ago the world as we know it was lost. Now humans live like rats, desperate for food and safety. The wall towers before us as a mocking reminder of what happened. The wall that keeps the monsters locked away from us. The wall that keeps us safe. The wall that every day I sneak through. I thought I was safe in the light beyond its scarred concrete.

Their black eyes track me like prey until he comes—their leader....

I'm a bridesmaid at a bachelorette party, minding my own business at a local bar after doing six shots of Fireball, when I realize I need to pee. In size small Spanx. I'm a large. While I wrestle with my white-spandex belly-smasher in the only bathroom, I'm holding up the whole bar from relieving itself.

But I misfire my karate kick and hook a thigh around his waist.

As the rightful heir to the Maryno family dynasty, Toni grew up with clear expectations of who he was supposed to be, and more importantly, who he wasn't. Growing up a constant disappointment isn't a childhood experience he recommends, but he's come a long way from the little boy who could never measure up to his family's toxic standards. At twenty-nine, he's finally proud of the man he's built himself into, and while the routine of his life is simple and, sure, sometimes lonely, he's content. Or so he thought.

Stefan Sabbioni stand an meinem sechzehnten Geburtstag uneingeladen in meinem Schlafzimmer. Er verbarg sich im Schatten, roch nach Whiskey und Tod und legte mir eine zerbrochene, blutverkrustete Halskette um den Hals. Ich dachte, er würde mich damit erdrosseln.

Before me stands monsters, Chaos Gods, Undead Wizards, dragons, and a love worth fighting for. The monsters brought by the integration are under control, but the System will not grant us peace. Before us stand four hostile factions, and some of them are already plotting against me and my people. Worse, they draw on the power of the Chaos Gods to do I know not what. But I am not alone. My allies on Themyscira have been of great help to me already, and I have my eye on one in particular. Cyra and I have grown close, and I hope to grow closer still.

I came here to hide from heartbreak. Not fall straight into it again, times three. One cheating ex, a million shattered promises, and a heat that decided to crash down weeks early. So yeah, I'm not exactly thriving. My only plan? Hide out in a remote cabin, write my next book, and avoid Alphas forever. Instead… Boom. Fire. Cabin gone. No explanation. No warning. Just smoke, ash, and the sinking feeling that maybe it wasn't an accident. Enter three local firefighters who are way too hot, way too kind, and way too Alpha. Atlas. River. Levi.

Loyalty. Duty. Deceit. I never imagined my first trip to Italy would be to bury my father. But there I stood, alone in the ancient cathedral with my father’s casket, a handful of soldiers standing guard. It never occurred to me that anyone would disrupt the sanctity of the moment. But the Caballero brothers have little regard for the church and even less for my family. They marched in, weapons in hand, and turned my world upside down.

The first integration was just the start for Earth. As we grappled with the aftermath of the first integration, a new, more daunting phase began. The System had unveiled additional shards, each a victorious fragment of a broken civilization, survivors and conquerors just like us. These battle-hardened and desperate people are determined to win, and pose a threat unlike any we've faced so far. Meanwhile, the lifeline between Crownhill and Themyscira hangs in the balance. Elder Thalassa still holds a grudge against me, and without her mother, Cyra won't have the sway to keep her at bay.

Ein alter Fluch. Zwei daran gebundene Familien. Eine verbotene Liebe. Als mir die Wildbloods in der Nacht des Zehents ihre Töchter präsentierten, wussten sie, was auf das auserwählte Mädchen zukommen würde. Die Mondsichel, die Willow kennzeichnete, machte sie zu meiner. Ich hatte keine andere Wahl, als sie zu nehmen. Das Schicksal legte unsere Bestimmungen schon lange vor unserer Geburt fest, indem es uns unsere Rollen zuwies. Eine Opfergabe würde erbracht werden. Der Zehent bezahlt werden. Erst dann würden unsere Familien frei sein, zumindest bis der nächste Zehent fällig wurde.

Das einzige Problem ist, dass sie seinen Ring am Finger trägt. Aber zwischen uns war schon immer etwas. Ich war immer ihr Beschützer, vor allem, wenn es um ihn ging. Und dieser Sog ist stärker als je zuvor.
