Shadow Bruja Duology

Lords of Night

Diamante and the other members of the Cinco head to a farm in Kansas to summon Xiuhtecuhtli, one of the Lords of Night.

She and another member of the Cinco. Kenji, evacuate a wax museum in Los Angeles before Serena creates a fake museum to full the non-supernaturals. Once the illusion is complete, Serena, Kenji, and Diamemte perform a ritual, unknown that Ren Santiago and Montero are watching them. Serena creates an illusion of a desert and the symbol burned onto Serena’s palm glows. Another teenager, Ezra, appears with an azure stone partially painted like an eye, into a disk and the illusion dissipates.

After resurrecting Chalchihtlicue at Lake Zirahuén, the Cinco are attacked by Ren's friends. After the battle, she, the rest of the Cinco, and Marco are taken captive by the lords.

Dawn of the Jaguar

Diamante and the others are placed in Cuauhcalli and have their magic drained, weakening her. A month after being taken prisoner they learn that Ren is nearby.

When Ren reaches Cuauhcalli, she and the other godborns use the last of their magic to help Zyanya put the prison to sleep. Ren and Zyanya are placed in a cell and Diamante, Kenji, Ezra, and Serena beg Ren to free them as they used the last of their magic to put Death Row to sleep. However Ren is reluctant as she views the four as the cause of this whole thing. Marco manages to convince her to help and Ren uses her jaguar magic to destroy the bars. Everyone steps out and quickly regains their strength. However Cuauhcalli awakens and sends countless demons after them. Ezra tries to make a bridge while the others fend off the enemy. Once the bridge is made, everyone races across and the group manages to escape. After making their way through a series of unknown tunnels, they reach the river and meet up with Zulema who has been helping the imprisoned godborns. The woman also reveals it is time for Ren's wedding. Ren is surprised, thinking she had more time, and begins to panic; Marco calms her down. Ren explains her plan to get the crown and Kenji, Diamante, and Ezra declare their allegiance to her, saying they will help. Serena laughs as she still feels annoyed that Ren becomes queen over her. Ren tells the other godborns to leave and hide. but has Serena stay.

She and the others meet up with Monty and, after the ceremony concludes and the Lords reveal they know about the escape, Ren's allies attack the Lords, with Diamante creating bear traps to immobilize the Lords. Realizing the Lords will over power them soon, Ren rips the time thread from her ankle just as Ezra traps the Lords for a few minutes as Marco tells everyone to retreat. They do, but Ren stays behind to help Edison. They meet up with Zulema, who takes them to the meeting point. After the woman brings Ren and Edison, Monty has the feathers open a gateway to Devils Tower. Everyone goes through, except for Ren- who stays behind to have the crown come to her, and Monty- who stays to guard Ren.

The group reaches Devils Tower, which Serena disguises as an abandoned circus, and they make a plan. They plan to have Marco masquerade as Ren and present the Lords with a fake crown created by Serena and Diamante. Marco will then lure the Lords to the tent where Ezra traps them and Zyanya put them to sleep. Soon Ren, Monty, and Zyanya arrive and Ren tells them about her encounter with K'iin. However, Ren's physical body is having a blackout and Monty will guard her. As Soon as the Lords arrive, Marco, disguised as Ren, presents the crown. Howeve, the Lords reveal themselves to be mirrors and take Marco, Monty, Diamante, Serena, and Kenji hostage just as Zyanya attempts to put the Lords to sleep. The hostages take the blow, knocking them out and the Lords imprison the five in the mirrors before stepping out. Zyanya flies away as the illusion shatters and the Lords search for the remaining adversaries. Ren, having returned to her body, remembers Zyanya telling her that the magic becomes nearly irreversible after five minutes and thinks of ways to save the others with Ezra and Edison. Ren and Ezra combine their magic to stop time to give the hostages a better chance. Zyanya manages to walk them up and they join Ren and Edison in taking on the Lords and Ren instructs everyone to combine their magic. Once they do, the Lords start to struggle, but Zyanya cannot get close. Seeing this, Ren transforms into a jaguar and grabs Zyanya, circling the Lords. Edison channels the other’s magic and strikes the Lords. The Lords fuse into a single shadow before being drawn into a suitcase. Ah-Puch and Ixtab appear and Ren fears what the goddess will do to her for not giving her the crown, but Ixtab reveals she will be taking the Lords as an alternative offering and lets Ren off the hook as she explains that she will drain the Lords of their magic and be trapped in Xib'alb'a forever. Ixtab leaves and Ah-Puch asks the others for time alone with Ren. Sitting around a fire, the members of the Cinco apologize to Ren one by one, with Serena being forced to, as Ren accepts their apologies. Ren takes out the Obsidian Blade and tells the others of her intention to free Zyanya. While they are hesitant, Monty notices an arrow and the others follow suit. They destroy the blade and Zyanya transforms into a blue jay and flies off, happy to be free. Afterwards, everyone heads home.

A week later, she and most of her companions reunite at the Shaman Institute of Higher-Order Magic to be debriefed and have a a celebratory bonfire.
