Summary
Due to a error with the sedative, Ryland Grace is not put into his medically induced coma early, he is instead sedated and wakes up in a blank room with no windows with guards at the only exit.
To Eva Stratt and everyone else, his unplanned consciousness doesn't matter, the mission will continue as planned, with a few more bumps than they had originally planned for.
To Ryland Grace, it meant everything. To him, he has three days to convince them not to send him into space, he had three days to tug at their heartstrings and reaffirm just how worthy he was to be kept alive.
It, predictably, doesn't change a single thing. -

Wojna, która miała zakończyć się lata temu, trwa nadal. Co więcej, Hermiona zostaje pojmana i wtrącona do Azkabanu, gdzie wchodzi w niebezpieczny układ z osadzonym w sąsiedniej celi śmierciożercą:
Codziennie będzie odpowiadać na jedno pytanie i nigdy nie skłamie.
Oczywiście, nie wszystko jest takie, jakim się wydaje, a Hermiona pozostaje związana tym układem nawet po ucieczce z więziennej celi.

Dopiero gdy go odnajduje, Hermiona godzi się wreszcie z prawdą, którą być może znała od dawna.
Jedyną osobą, która zdołała zniewolić jej umysł i serce, jest ktoś walczący po przeciwnej stronie wojny.
Draco Malfoy.

Rhys smiles wryly at me, teasing. His hand is still on my cheek, like he’s forgotten about it. “Why, can’t I trust you?”
“Of course you can” I say, a little bit too fast
He continues, in the same teasing voice, though now undercut by a threat - something sharp just beneath the silk of his voice. “You’ll be good, won’t you darling?”
“I’ll be good” I whisper. He watches me, and I watch him, a second too long.

Summary
Mick Vale wanted three things that no honest life can hold together for long: fame, youth, and continuation. He wanted to be seen, but more than that, he wanted to be exempt. From obscurity. From aging. From the ordinary humiliations that reduce beauty to memory and ambition to anecdote. What he found instead was a bargain hidden inside a song, a room, and the long appetite of the public. Symphony to the Devil did not merely make Mick. It arranged him. Around that arrangement gathered friends, lovers, critics, managers, archivists, fans, scholars, lawyers, and witnesses, all of them doing, in different ways, the labor required to keep one dead singer young.

Summary
In 1933, Alastor is a rising radio star with ambition to spare—and no intention of stopping, no matter the cost. When he calls out to the afterlife to make a deal, the one who answers isn’t a lesser demon, but Lucifer himself.
Lucifer is unraveling. His wife hates him, his young daughter is beyond his reach, and fatherhood—the only thing that ever gave him purpose—has been taken from him. So when Alastor offers everything—his heart, body, and soul—Lucifer accepts.
The bargain makes Alastor the most powerful sinner Hell has ever known.
It also binds them in ways neither fully understands, leading to consequences that will reshape Hell… and create life where neither of them expected it. -
