I am tired of being used, hurt, and cast aside. Adelina Amouteru is
a survivor of the blood fever. A decade ago, the deadly illness
swept through her nation. Most of the infected perished, while many
of the children who survived were left with strange markings.
Adelina's black hair turned silver, her lashes went pale, and now
she has only a jagged scar where her left eye once was. Her cruel
father believes she is a malfetto, an abomination, ruining their
family's good name and standing in the way of their fortune. But
some of the fever's survivors are rumored to possess more than just
scars-they are believed to have mysterious and powerful gifts, and
though their identities remain secret, they have come to be called
the Young Elites. Teren Santoro works for the king. As Leader of
the Inquisition Axis, it is his job to seek out the Young Elites,
to destroy them before they destroy the nation. He believes the
Young Elites to be dangerous and vengeful, but it's Teren who may
possess the darkest secret of all. Enzo Valenciano is a member of
the Dagger Society. This secret sect of Young Elites seeks out
others like them before the Inquisition Axis can. But when the
Daggers find Adelina, they discover someone with powers like
they've never seen. Adelina wants to believe Enzo is on her side,
and that Teren is the true enemy. But the lives of these three will
collide in unexpected ways, as each fights a very different and
personal battle. But of one thing they are all certain: Adelina has
abilities that shouldn't belong in this world. A vengeful blackness
in her heart. And a desire to destroy all who dare to cross her. It
is my turn to use. My turn to hurt.
Adelina Amouteru's heart is set on revenge. Now known and feared as
the White Wolf, she and her sister flee Kenettra to find other
Young Elites in the hopes of building her own army. Her goal: to
strike down the Inquisition Axis, the white-cloaked soldiers who
nearly killed her. But Adelina is no heroine. Teren Santoro, leader
of the Inquisition, wants her dead. And her former friends at the
Dagger Society want to stop her thirst for vengeance. Adelina
struggles to cling to the good within her. But how can someone be
good, when her very existence depends on darkness?
Mike White's Emmy-winning series The White Lotus follows various hotel guests over the span of a week - but with each passing day, a darker side of the picture-perfect travelers, hotel employees, and idyllic locale emerges.
Now in their Sicily location, the White Lotus welcomes two couples trying to decide if they're friends or frenemies; a three-generation Italian American family exploring their Sicilian roots; and a White Lotus VIP traveling with her husband (and assistant) in tow. Behind the scenes, the hotel's professional but prickly manager tries to keep two young locals - each striving to get ahead by different means - out of her luxury establishment.
Diving into the vagaries of gender roles and sexual politics, season two of the acclaimed social satire promises to keep audiences guessing from week to week.

Alchemy is the hidden art of transformation. An exclusive power wielded
by crime syndicates that market it to the world’s elites in the form of
sand, a drug that enhances those who take it into a more perfect
version of themselves: more beautiful, more charismatic, simply more.
Among the gleaming skyscrapers and rolling foothills of Angel City,
alchemy is controlled by two rival syndicates. For years, Grand Central
and Lumines have been balanced on a razor’s edge between polite
negotiation and outright violence. But when two childhood friends step
into that delicate equation, the city – and the paths of their lives –
will be irrevocably transformed.
The daughter of a poor single mother, Sam would do anything to claw her
way into the ranks of Grand Central in search of a better life. Plucked
away from his family as a boy to become a Lumines apprentice, Ari is
one of the syndicates'' brightest rising stars. Once, they might have
loved each other. But as the two alchemists face off across opposite
sides of an ever-escalating conflict, ambition becomes power, loyalty
becomes lies, and no transformation may be perfect enough for them both
to survive the coming war.
