City Of Stolen Hours

Werewolf–Vampire–Arcane Guild Haremlit

Time is a predator—and New Arcadia just heard it roar.

When the city’s clocks start losing minutes, streets loop back on themselves, and people wake with their yesterdays missing, Dan Black knows it isn’t coincidence. The trail leads to the Atlas Museum’s “Time-Slice” exhibit—front for a Meridian Utilities project code-named Mirror Gate—and to a string of robberies that steal more than gold: they steal hours from the living.

To stop the bleed, Dan and his pack take the kind of job that bends reality sideways. Tess maps the loops; Aiko ghosts the sensors; Marco hauls his bad shoulder through GL-HVAC ducts older than the city itself. Their enemy: Velan Ordo, a punctuality zealot wielding Guardian-tech and Choir fragments. Their handler: Damien Black, who funds the mission—and might be using it to open his own Gate.

The deeper they go, the stranger time gets. Every resurrection costs colder; every echo leaves Dan closer to frostbite from the inside out. Between hush-fields, chronal traps, and lies told in perfect rhythm, one truth keeps him grounded: trust isn’t given, it’s earned—minute by stolen minute.

When the final Gate turns, Dan will have to choose what to save: the hours he’s lost, or the people still running out of them.

Because in New Arcadia, every second has teeth—and once time takes a bite, it never lets go.

🔥 Perfect for fans of:
• Neon-noir heists where time fights back
• Found-family crews against impossible odds
• Hybrid heroes paying real magical costs
• Android foxgirls, spell-slinging engineers, and haunted wolves
• Slow-burn, consent-forward romance anchored in trust

💥 Razor-sharp action. Wicked humor. Heart that won’t quit.
