    Summary

    The Shadow Fold has endured for more than six hundred years. Now in the twenty-first century, the Darkling serves under greedy politicians as a five-star General of the Second Army. Until he can make his move towards power, until he can finally find his fabled Sun Summoner.

    Alina Starkov is just an entry-level intelligence analyst for the Ravkan First Army, watching massive screens of satellite footage for hours on end. Mostly handling documentation, cross-referencing incoming intel, outlining small skirmishes on digital maps. The minutia kind of stuff. She'd be the first to tell you that she isn't anyone special, certainly not Grisha.

    Or: A modern retelling of Shadow and Bone.

    Summary

    “Evil woman,” he murmurs, amused, “teasing a poor virgin like that."

    “I know. We were pretty close.”

    She slips her hand deeper in his pocket. His hands leave her waist to grip white knuckled at the counter behind him.

    “Bloody hell,” he huffs, “not this close, I hope.”

    Summary

    Somehow, someway, Chloe beats him to his penthouse.

    She’s waiting for him when he steps off the elevator. Pacing by the piano, one hand tapping on the glossy lid.

    She surges toward him the the second he crosses the threshold, heels snapping on black stone.

    “What the hell is wrong with you?”

    He pauses briefly. She follows him when he sidesteps her and stalks to the bar.

    He sheds his jacket. Undoes his cufflinks, and pushes his sleeves past his wrists. Pours himself a drink.

    He takes a sip and lets it melt on his tongue before he speaks, voice barely more than a whisper.

    “I could ask you the same thing, Detective.”

    Desperate to cement his "super bad boyfriend" status, Lucifer drags Eve as his date to the 54th annual LAPD gala.

    He's not expecting a date with Chloe Decker to be up for auction.
