Everly
I am the servant of a merciless God. I am the daughter of Its preacher. All my life, my power has been controlled by others. They raised me to be meek and stifled my magic. But no more. A brutal murder led me to discover a mysterious house full of magic - and the ancient, powerful demon within. He says my power can change the world, that I can kill the evil creature I once worshipped. But at what cost?

For two thousand years, I've been alone. Slaughtering fallen Gods as I searched for the witch that haunted my dreams, begging for my help. Now that I've found her, I will protect her with my life. But when the fate of Earth, Heaven, and Hell hangs in the balance, not even her soul is safe from destruction. If a choice must be made, I'll let the world burn if it means having her as my own.
Each book within the Souls Trilogy is interconnected, following a different couple through a similar timeline in the fictional world of Abelaum.

One, two, they took what's mine.
My little lamb was stolen from me.
Three, four, blood on the floor.
The monster she awakened has broken free.
Five, six, death's favorite tricks.
My darkness hunts relentlessly.
Seven, eight, feel my rage.
Hell itself bows down to me.
Nine, ten, kill again and again.
Each death brings her back to me. Eleven, twelve, straight to hell.
Where screams ring eternally. Welcome back to your darkest nightmare.
I am Death, and they've stripped away my mask of mercy.
My little lamb, I will paint the streets red until you're safe in my arms again. “Back in the Shadows” plunges readers deeper into Death's twisted realm, where love and violence dance in perfect harmony.
