About this listen
Not many people get a second chance, let alone a second life.
I died. Burnt in a prison cell I spent years of my life rotting away in.
I had been beaten, battered, and bruised beyond repair...but not broken. Never broken.
By whatever miracle, I've been brought back ten years into my past and before I was locked away...
But to a different kind of hell… Wensridge Academy. A place filled with only memories of pain and suffering.
This time, I'll break the wheel of misfortune and with it, all the people who caused my suffering and death.
This time I'll have the life I should have always had.
The Blackened Blade is the first in a new paranormal why-choose series. It's full of action, revenge, and five dark and damaged love interests that the FMC will not have to choose between. For mature listeners.

Story11
Never stop running. And no matter what, never let the world know who you really are. I’ve spent my whole life hiding. Training. Preparing. Hoping that no one will discover my secrets. What I can do. Who I am. And I’ve gotten so good at it, sometimes even I forget. Until them. The wolf pack with a ruthless reputation and a penchant for revenge. The protective fighter. The charming Brit. The shy hacker. The silent mercenary. The cruel assassin. They see more than anyone ever has before. And even with demons of their own, they give me sanctuary.

I wasn't supposed to be part of the Choosing. I forged my way in, wearing a stranger's face, chasing whispers of my lost sister. I planned to seduce. To manipulate. To survive. But I didn't plan on them. The way they watch me like prey. The way their magic coils around mine like a promise. The way they say my name like they already own it. Each man wants to break me in his own way. Take me in his own way. Together? They might unmake me entirely.

Half-Fae Elessia could have had everything. Literally. Since her magic allows her to compel anyone to do her bidding by merely looking into their eyes, the world was at her feet. But after a tragic accident, she is thrown into the Fae king's dungeons and forced to swear a blood oath to him, binding her to his service. Five years later, she's living amongst humans in Ellow and has created a life for herself—as much as she can with the king's promise to call in his debt looming over her.

Long ago, Requiem was plagued by war and abandoned by the gods but Death saved the suffering people, giving each soul a hundred years of immortality. With that grace, he also sent two Maidens. One of Life, for healing and comfort, and one of Death, the only person in the world with the ability to kill. Generations later, the Life Maiden is missing and Princess Deyanira is nothing more than a trained weapon. A hunter. A murderer wrenched into Death's dark court to have the name of her next victim seared onto her palm.

You want my advice? Never look a gift horse in the mouth. You don’t want to see the rotten teeth. In this case, the gift is a scholarship to attend the prestigious Neveah University. The rotten teeth? Well, they came in the form of my brand new stepbrother and his little cohort of entitled, arrogant best friends. Four dangerously handsome and stupidly wealthy men who made up their minds about me long before we met. Men who are used to getting everything they want no matter what the price.

At nearly thirty, Harlow can't even cast a simple rune without blundering it. So why does anyone think she can take up the mantle of Hero? Reluctantly, she's dragged back to Neverthorn Academy with seven former classmates, tasked with training to confront and defeat the Villain of their world. But the challenges are stacked against her: Professor Hot-as-Sin makes it clear she's a failure. Professor Used-to-Be-a-Mean-Girl has a vendetta. And lurking in her past is a secret so dark it could reveal she's not the Hero the world needs—but the next Villain.
