mortician book

When Lucian Bowcott goes out drinking with friends, he dies after a single sip. He awakens in Atreaum, summoned by the Half-Dead Queen to serve as her court mortician. But there’s a problem: death no longer exists in this world. Lucian expects embalming fluid and corpses—not a palace where time is frozen and memory is outlawed. But when he rings a forbidden bell in the city of Staesis, the illusion shatters—and something older than ghosts begins to stir. Now hunted by the very Queen who summoned him, shadowed by a stitched girl born of grief, and stalked by a spymaster who trades in secrets and souls, Lucian must uncover the truth behind Atreaum’s forgotten dead—before he joins them.

On our fifth anniversary, Fintan was planning to propose to me. I was waiting excitedly in the bedroom while they set up, when I overheard Fintan's resigned tone: "Now whenever I think about her hands preparing all those bodies, I feel sick." "But I have to marry her. I owe her that much." How laughable. Seven years ago, at his father's funeral, he couldn't stop thanking me for giving his father a final moment of dignity. Five years ago, he passionately kissed my fingertips as he professed his love, swearing he'd never be repulsed by me. If you don't love me, then get lost.

Lucian is a cold and ruthless vampire who has lived among humans for centuries, hiding in plain sight as the CEO of a successful company. He's feared and respected by his employees, but his heart is closed off from love. He has always limited his interactions with humans. That is, until he meets Lily, a human woman with the rare and powerful ability to revive the dead. But she is not aware of it. As far as Lily knows, she is just a mortician who's always been fascinated by death. Her funeral business had hit a rough patch so when she's called to perform a special task on some dead body that Lucian has requested, she had no choice but to accept the job. However, when she meets him, she was drawn to him despite her better judgment. Lucian is unlike any man she's ever met, and she finds herself falling for him even though she knows he's otherworldly and dangerous. As they spend more time together, Lucian and Lily's attraction grows stronger, but their love is forbidden. Lucian is a vampire, and Lily is a human - their worlds were never meant to collide. But when a mysterious and powerful enemy threatens Lily's life, Lucian must choose between his duty to his vampire clan and his love for Lily. He'll do whatever it takes to protect her, even if it means exposing his true nature and risking everything he's worked for. As they journey together to uncover the truth behind Lily's abilities and the threat to her life, they face danger and betrayal at every turn. But their love for each other only grows stronger, and they discover that together, they're stronger than any enemy they face.

Reader discretion is strongly advised. In a world where the nobility's grace is a gilded mask for unspeakable cruelty, an orphaned boy named Mormond watches his world burn. After the brutal murder of his adoptive sister, Nini, at the hands of arrogant aristocrats, something inside him shatters and is remade into a monstrous new form. In his grief, he manifests a terrifying and unique power, becoming the "Puppeteer Calamity"—a vengeful artist who reanimates Nini's broken corpse, transforming her into a beautiful and deadly marionette of vengeance. Their bloody crusade begins in the slums of Marlock, but soon their stage expands to the decadent and corrupt empire of Omnia, a place where the elite literally consume the souls of slum children to preserve their own vitality. Hiding behind the flawless disguise of "Milos," an innocent and cherubic orphan, Mormond infiltrates the highest echelons of power. He orchestrates a masterful campaign of psychological warfare, not with brute force, but with whispers. He turns nobles against each other, drives them to madness, and forces them to author their own destruction, all while they believe him to be a harmless, lucky charm. Each conquest ends with a new, horrifying puppet added to his public collection—a gallery of corpses left as a chilling signature. His reign of terror does not go unnoticed. The empire's champion, Tifa—a swordmaster of holy light known as the Divine Guardian—is tasked with hunting the "Silver Shadow." She is his perfect opposite: a beacon of order and righteousness dedicated to protecting the very system Mormond seeks to annihilate. But as Mormond's web of control tightens around the empire's throat, an unforeseen complication arises. The ghost of Nini's true self begins to awaken within the puppet, her fragmented memories and prayers creating a glitch in his perfect control. This internal fracture becomes Mormond's greatest vulnerability. His desperate, violent attempts to maintain possession of his sister's soul expose him at the worst possible moment, forcing him from the shadows and into a direct, desperate conflict with Tifa and the full might of the empire. The Conductor's controlled performance descends into a chaotic war, where the price of his vengeance may be the very soul he fought so hard to keep. A novel by : ATLASBANAW
