The Persephanie Chronicles

As humanity's growing evil empowers the Prince of Darkness, the war's unprecedented violence feeds his strength like never before. He has returned, stepping from the spiritual realm into human form to walk among men. The curse he long ago placed upon the Guiste bloodline has finally borne fruit, providing him with the perfect vessel for his spirit. He has also awakened the seven spirits of the gods once worshipped by history's greatest civilizations. These ancient entities—the Seven Servants—have summoned their demonic legions to join him. Centuries earlier, before the fall of Constantinople to the Ottoman hordes, the once-pious Guiste family entombed these spirits and their hordes beneath their palace. Now, the ruined palace lies hidden below the streets of Istanbul, where the imprisoned entities cry out for vengeance. The Dark Prince has waited centuries for the curse to fully manifest. Triggered by the war's horrors, the time is finally ripe. Baron Julian Guiste, a direct descendant, resides in the family's ancestral stronghold: the magnificent Guiste Castle, perched high in the Swiss Alps where his forebears fled long ago. His joy at the birth of an heir proves tragically short-lived. The curse descends, and his beloved son, Nefas Damian Guiste, is marked to fulfill the ancient prophecy. But first, Nefas must create the perfect vessel for the spirit of the goddess Ishtar. Through a fusion of science and the supernatural, he fathers a daughter: Persephanie Sophia Guiste, born to Lady Katherine Fitzhern of Highfield Manor, Oxfordshire, England. Endowed with a brilliant mind and perfect recall, Persephanie becomes enslaved to her father by her own deep love for him. Harnessing her genius, Nefas amasses unimaginable wealth and builds a global cabal of evil. Though limited by his earthly form, he tightens his grip on humanity with the aid of the Seven Servants positioned strategically around the world. There is only one problem. Despite her unwavering devotion and his absolute control over every aspect of her life, Persephanie proves far less malleable than he predicted. As she grows, her beauty becomes legendary, and a deep well of unconditional love resides within her—a radiant light to everyone who meets her. And the universe has a way of righting itself. So when a young CIA agent crosses her path, love's arrow threatens to pierce the heart of the Dark Prince's meticulously laid plans.
