The Shard and The Serpent by Jinapher J. Hoffman

Dark Romance meets grunge-punk-inspired Sci-Fi/Fantasy with a strong female lead desperate to avenge everything she lost, and an obsessive heir to a criminal empire who will stop at nothing to memorize every inch of her.

"Sometimes, a girl’s true hero can only ever be herself."

In Mirror, crime rules all. Abandoned kingdoms have risen into criminal empires, each specializing in a dark trade. Among them, a secret league of female assassins lurks, their vendettas paid only in blood.

Rayze Angeline is a Shard Daughter, a female assassin known as the Angel of Sin, and one of the last remaining mortals blessed with magic. She can command the threads of the realm with a single word, folding oceans and controlling gravity.

But her specialty are pleasure threads. Entering a person's mind by fulfilling their darkest desires and commanding them to reveal their secrets.

One lay at a time, she will claim her vengeance against those who stole
everything from her, but an encounter with her enemy, Warrick Ivor, leaves her craving what she can't have:

A Bond. Threads of Fate tethered between their souls. Strings she can
cut, driving him into a mad craze and turning him into her perfect weapon.

For. Always.
