orders are orders

Lila Devereaux is a woman who has built an empire on ambition, control, and perfection. As the CEO of Devereaux Enterprises, she is untouchable, admired, and feared by those around her. But beneath the cold exterior lies a woman who has spent her entire life running from the ghosts of her past—driven by the weight of expectations from her powerful father and the relentless pressure to never show weakness. When Lila hires Ethan Blake, a seemingly ordinary man from a world far removed from her own, she expects him to be just another cog in the corporate machine. But Ethan’s quiet strength, sharp mind, and unflinching honesty challenge everything she’s built her life around. As he begins to navigate the complexities of her world with surprising ease, Lila finds herself facing the one thing she’s worked so hard to avoid—vulnerability. Caught between the high demands of her father, the unraveling pressures of her company’s expansion, and a growing attraction to Ethan that she can't ignore, Lila must confront the walls she's spent years constructing. Can she continue to hide behind her armor, or will she allow herself to be seen for the first time in years? Unlikely Orders is a gripping exploration of power, ambition, and the hidden cost of success. As Lila struggles with the balance between maintaining control and discovering trust, she must decide if she can let someone into her life without losing everything she’s worked for—or if love and vulnerability are luxuries she can no longer afford.

In the heart of the Seldon Empire, knights are not born....they are forged through blade, blood, and brutal competition. Megan Hunderah carries a lethal legacy. Born with "war in her blood," she enters one of the prestigious Orders of Seldon under the crushing weight of impossible expectations. To earn her place, she must survive rigid missions, and cutthroat rivalries from peers who want to see her fail. But there is little time for schoolyard games as deep in the shadows, a cataclysmic rebellion is brewing. Fallen nations plot against the empire. They will do everything to tear her apart, Seldon’s knight orders are thrust into the vanguard of a hopeless war. Megan is thrown directly into the jaws of the most brutal conflict the empire has ever faced.

The academy rules end where the battlefield begins.

— Beyond the Orders The year is 3284 CE. Humanity has united under the United Stellar Federation, ruling thousands of star systems through unmatched engineering, colossal fleets, and towering mecha. Surrounded by rival galactic civilizations and an unforgiving frontier, survival depends not on strength alone, but on innovation, discipline, and unity. Seventeen-year-old Adrian Aurelius dreams of earning a place at Helios Stellar Military Academy, the Federation's most prestigious military institution. Born into a respected family of engineers and scientists, Adrian refuses to rely on his family's reputation. He believes that a true officer must earn every rank, every victory, and every ounce of respect through his own efforts. With only one month remaining before the academy entrance examination, Adrian's life seems to follow a predictable path—until a routine training expedition to a distant colony world takes a disastrous turn. Separated from his classmates by an unexpected cave-in, Adrian uncovers a forgotten underground facility untouched for millions of years. Hidden deep within its silent ruins lies A.S.T.R.A.—an ancient artificial intelligence that quietly binds itself to his consciousness. It grants him no overwhelming power, no instant mastery, and no special status. Instead, it becomes a silent guide, helping him learn, analyze, and uncover truths long buried by time. Determined to keep the mysterious encounter secret, Adrian returns to his ordinary life and enters Helios Stellar Military Academy, where thousands of gifted cadets compete for a future in humanity's armed forces. Between demanding instructors, relentless training, fierce rivals, loyal friends, and the weight of military discipline, Adrian begins the long journey from cadet to commander. Beyond the academy walls, however, the galaxy is changing. Ancient ruins awaken. Exploration fleets vanish without a trace. Political tensions rise between the Five Galactic Powers. Strange signals echo from the unexplored Outer Rim. And fragments of a forgotten history begin to surface—one that could change everything humanity believes about its place among the stars. As Adrian grows stronger, every promotion, Gene advancement, and command must be earned through sacrifice and hard work. His greatest challenge is not becoming the strongest pilot, but becoming the kind of leader who can make impossible decisions when there are no perfect answers. In a galaxy where every order carries a cost, the future belongs not to those who simply obey—but to those who know when to go beyond the orders.

She was trained to keep her guard up. But he was never part of the mission. Ex–military captain Audrey Rousseau has bullets in her blood and shadows on her back. After a mission gone wrong forced her out of the French armed forces, she takes a high-risk job oceans away—protecting the dangerously handsome heir to a billion-dollar private security empire. Sebastian Donovan has more money than most countries—and just as many enemies. With that effortless charm and a habit of pushing limits, he’s exactly the kind of trouble Audrey promised herself she’d avoid. But when a hit team comes too close and secrets start bleeding from his father’s empire, protecting Sebastian means going off-grid... and toeing the line between survival and surrender. Every mission has rules. But in the heat of escape, in the silence between gunfire and glances, rules break. Walls fall. And what begins as protection becomes something far more dangerous. Because obsession doesn’t wait for permission. And love never asks for orders.
