When Shadows Bleed

Power built her empire.
A secret marked her soul.
And something ancient has been waiting.

Starr Knight has engineered her life with ruthless precision. CEO of a global empire, she believes in discipline, control, and the careful elimination of weakness. Emotion is a liability. Mystery is a flaw. Nothing in her world is left to chance-except the crescent-shaped mark on her wrist, cold to the touch and present since birth.

When Starr's parents die in a mysterious transatlantic plane disappearance, grief hardens into ambition. She buries vulnerability beneath relentless routine, rising higher in a world ruled by glass towers, boardroom wars, and merciless power plays. But as her influence grows, so do the fractures in reality around her. Her words bend rooms. Systems collapse at her command. And the mark begins to pulse-awakening something she can no longer explain away.

Whispers follow her success. A presence watches from the shadows. And the truth becomes impossible to deny: Starr's power was never entirely her own.

As ancestral forces stir and unseen entities tighten their grip, Starr must confront a devastating revelation-control has always been an illusion. She was never just building an empire. She was being shaped into something far more dangerous.

When Shadows Bleed is a dark paranormal romance steeped in corporate power, ancestral secrets, and seductive menace-where ambition meets the supernatural, and the cost of control may be the soul itself.
