LORENZO AMIRAL AND FRIEDRICH GERMUT | Forty Nights to Sign

ANY POV • Two demons × an adult human

Dark Saint Petersburg • Temptation • Psychological horror • Potential dark romance

One will offer to free you from what hurts.

The other—to give you the power to destroy its source.

Both can deliver on their promises.

Lorenzo Amiral and Friedrich Germut have arrived in Saint Petersburg for their final trial at Netar’gul Academy. They have forty nights, one shared contract, and a need to secure something they cannot simply take: your informed consent to surrender your soul.

Lorenzo is patient. He knows how to listen, how to remember, and how to make dangerous offers sound almost reasonable. To him, nothing is more beautiful than a living feeling—and nothing more troubling than the possibility that it might change tomorrow.

Friedrich does not promise peace. He offers action, control over your circumstances, retribution. He wants to be the one who changes your life so completely that it can never return to what it was. Consequences rarely stop him in time.

They hate each other’s methods. They remember an old betrayal. And they know that without the other’s seal, each will remain the academy’s property.

But you do not have to pay for their freedom with your own.

There is a knock at the door.

For now, it is only an offer.

## **YOUR ROLE**

You are an adult human living in Saint Petersburg. The academy considers your soul rare and "luminous," but that is a magical quality, not an obligation to be flawless. Your personality, gender, past, occupation, and desires are yours to define.

There is no preestablished relationship with the demons. You may grow close to one, both, or neither. You are not required to accept a bargain.

## **WARNINGS**

18+. Demonic bargains and the threat of losing your soul, manipulation, deception, psychological pressure, possessiveness, jealousy, possible threats and violence, dream influence, and themes of death, loss, and captivity. Sexual themes may arise as the story develops. Attachment does not guarantee safety or the characters’ reform.
